Utterly brilliant! :-D

everyone who's laid on a leather sofa knows what you mean when you say he peeled himself off it

my college German teacher gave us all rescue remedy drops when we had our exams. Placebo or not, we walked in calm. Personally, I think it was the confidence she had in us that made a difference. We were her ducklings and we'd follow her anywhere.

clicked on story, waited for it to load, and at the last possible moment, my mind registered the 103k written unobtrusively at the bottom. I can only hope that whatever I've just let myself in for, it'll be good

What a wonderful story. Thank you for your (to me) hard work. I look forward to reading more.

Fue una historia maravillosa, me has conmovido hasta lo más hondo de mi alma, tu dedicación a recolectar información veraz para adaptarla a la historia es admirable y no queda nada más que agradecerte por todo el esfuerzo que has hecho, captar de esa forma la esencia de John es algo digno considerar como una obra maestra. Te doy mis mas sinceras felicitaciones y respetos.

Perfect, I really do love this story, I’ve re read it several times now and it always strikes me just right as perfectly balanced between john’s previous military life and his current one, without glossing over the difficulties- a very hard act to follow

Amazing! Brilliant!

Thebakerstreetgirl, could I ask your permission for something? I should like to borrow your description of John's scars for a story I'm working on. I will credit you in my story if I do.

This is a great story! I said the same thing on Archive of Our Own, and I can only say the same thing here.

I get the feeling Sherlock is going to keep acting OOC for the rest of this Fanfic.

Wonderful.

Well written, well researched, moving & appropriately humorous. Would have voted for you, if it hadn't been to late to do so.

I am sorry I didn't get back this story until now or I would have given you a thumbs up on the contest.

this story is great

I cannot tell you how much i loved this story! John is my favorite character and this is, bar none, the best story written with him as the central focus. You brought me much joy as I spent and afternoon and evening reading this. My sincerest thanks for sharing it with us all.

The soldier's shoulders slumped slightly and Sherlock was concerned again. I havent even finished the chapter but i had to say that even in my head this was a tounge twister.
