You and loupgarou1750 are conspiring to deprive me of sleep! One of the things I appreciate most about superior fanfic like yours is that the writing style, plot development, dialogue, and characterization all far exceed JKR's own impressive abilities. You've also brought special charm and warmth to Doyle's famous duo, emphasizing their clear and absolute devotion to each other. Severus' note at the end (and how appropriate that his should be the last word) cracked me up. Thank you!
