    Summary

    "That he was cold was the first thing Sherlock noticed when he woke. The second was that he was uncomfortable, laying on something solid which dug into his ribs and spine and pressed into his skull. The third was pain. His head throbbed in time with his heart and a sharp ache radiated from his back. The fourth was that he had no idea where he was."

    Sherlock lays alone on the rocks and waits for John to save him. Later he learns that even after rescue, his John might be a lot further away than he had anticipated.

    Summary

    The thing about perceiving everything that meets one of your senses is that your brain never rest. If he closes his eyes to avoid involuntary deductions, he still hears the way a person speaks too fast and then falters or the weird pauses in which he can almost picture the lies taking form.
    If both eyes and ears are closed, something is for sure going to tickle his nostrils, maybe the same perfume on two different persons or the strong scents of deodorant or the way Anderson and Donovan too often smell alike.
    He can't rest. That's the best and worst thing at the same time. His brain is a machine, it never rests. It is constantly busy deducing important things and less important things, always working whether it's a case or the way someone is limping on the stairs. He can't rest.

    Summary

    Just then, from a distance they heard an odd rumble and both looked back in the direction it had come from.

    "What was that?" John asked. "Lorry backfiring?"

    Sherlock's eyes danced as he searched his mind for the answer. The game was on.

    "Explosion," he said as the answer reached him. "Come on!"

    Summary

    Sherlock finally turned back to John. "She wanted to—"

    He stopped with a sharp intake of breath. John straightened and shifted closer to his friend. "Wanted to what?"

    Sherlock turned his head away, and John watched his shoulders rise and fall slowly as he struggled for control. Then the detective turned back with a gaze so piercing it startled him. "She wanted to hurt me. Again."

    Summary

    Sherlock is home, he and John are returning to cases, and all's right with the world--right? But a series of minor mishaps and injuries makes two things very clear to his friends and family: first, Sherlock's time away wasn't the grand adventure everyone has assumed it was; and second, that time has left Sherlock with a legacy that's bleeding into his life today. Sherlock is Not Okay, and it's not going away.

    EDIT: I have now made this part of a series, since I am going to be doing occasional one-offs in this same universe.

    WORKS INSPIRED BY THIS ONE: The lovely Aunt_Didi has begun a podfic of this work--it can be found on both of our dashboards.
