I made it about halfway through chapter one last night, but I can’t take it. I’ve officially moved into the read it all in one fell swoop camp.

Totally fair!!! I can promise that chapter 3 will be up tomorrow, and I’m strongly hoping that chapter 4 will be up on Saturday!!! It’s about the same length as the other three put together, though, so… wish me luck, haha! 

I'm reading your new work "Scars", it's amazing but I don't think I have ever been so scared to read a fic, ever. My heart is in my throat every single step of the way. I think this incarnation of Mary might be even scarier than in "The King is Dead", and

Ahhh, thank you for thsi!!!! Yes, Mary is AWFUL in this story!!!! It delights me to no end that you’re feeling so affected by this, though! that’s such a compliment!

I'm just at the party where Mary and John are having sex in the new fic and Why do you hurt me so, silent auror I love your work

I know, it’s so gross!!! I haven’t written that much het sex in a long time, hahahaha! *shudders* 

I love you for loving my work!

Did you see the meta going around about the green carnations wallpaper? Didn’t you write a lovely fic about green carnations? :)

Yes, indeed I did! Metas about green carnations have been around since TSOT aired, since we all thought that the flowers all over the wedding were green carnations. In my fic, which is a Janine POV, Sherlock seems distracted and starts telling Janine about the Oscar Wilde trial and the historical significance of green carnations, and Janine gathers from his rambling that he (who was the one to pick them for John’s wedding), is hopelessly in love with John. It’s the first of my stories with a floral leitmotif (the other two are The Yellow Poppies and The White Lotuses). :)

Title: Scars (chapter 2 of 4) (link goes to ao3)

Author: SilentAuror

Pairings: John/Mary, John/Sherlock

Rating: Explicit

Chapter length: 16,327 words

Warnings: SEE ARCHIVE!!! MULTIPLE WARNINGS! Including: emotional, sexual, and physical abuse, gaslighting, manipulation, dub & non-con!

Author’s note: I’ll be posting a chapter per day. Chapter 4 is not yet complete but I’m confident that it will be by Saturday/Sunday!

Summary:

“You loved him.” Her voice was gentle as John turned startled eyes to her face. Her gaze hadn’t wavered. “Didn’t you.” It was not a question. “Of course you loved him. It’s all right to tell me.”

John’s hands had been locked together, his knuckles white in the lamplight. He’d cleared his throat, looking at them. “Yeah,” he’d said, his voice rough. “I did.”

“That’s got to stop.” Mary’s voice hadn’t changed, not precisely, or not in any outward way that he could detect, and yet it was completely different. She sounded entirely calm and still very gentle, but beneath that there was something new. Something rather like steel.

Omg I just saw the special thing and I laughed so loudly at Mrs Hudson’s “no”, hahahahahaha! That was pure gold! 

I’m relieved that Ben still sounds like Sherlock, even without the hair. You’re cautiously loosened from your hook, bbcone.

Playing mind games with myself
Playing mind games with a man who has no idea what he’s gotten himself into but is starting to (mwahaha!)
Talking to myself
Hating on Mary Morstan (seriously, it’s just so cathartic and relaxing!)
Experimenting with different methods of pizza ordering in French
Calculating how far I’ve walked every day
Ogling other people’s Vespas (this is a new addition to the list)

Obsessively keeping nightly statistic reports of my own fanworkPainting my nails
Juggling as many balls (metaphorical, although…) as possible
Making potato leek soup
Writing Johnlock fanfic
Playing on Paint for my own amusement
Making fridge poetry that no one ever sees, since I live alone and never have anyone over :’(Befriending random old men on the busFeminist rantsAnti-heteronormativity rantsStephen Harper rantsRants in general, in factInventing recipesLike this one: get half a pint of raspberries, freeze them, then thaw them just a little bit (I guess you could just freeze them slightly less, but you do what you do), put them in a bowl or something, add some sparkling water, fresh lime juice, a small bottle of gin, and lots of sugar. Blend it with an immersion blender. Or I guess if you’re fancier than me and actually own a real blender, you could put the whole shebang in there. Pour into a glass and drink.

Today’s was about people who swim with hand paddles on just so that they can be in the fast lane. My local pool divides lanes by speed, and there’s always some asshole with the paddles in the fast lane, and they invariably don’t know how to rotate their shoulders properly, which means that at some point they whack you in the face while you’re swimming on the other side of the lane or in the medium lane on the other side of the rope, the hard edge of the plastic practically slicing your face open in the water because said jackass has no idea how to swim and should therefore be in the slow lane with the octogenarians and their flutter boards and the other newbies who are floundering slowly from one end of the pool to the other. Seriously: if you’re only able to swim in the fast lane because you’ve got paddles on your hands and flippers on your feet, everyone knows you’re a fast lane fraud, anyway. Just spare everyone’s faces the harm, ok? Ugh.

“A girl will name a time and a pizza place will do the rest”… this is why I love you. Yep.

Haha! Yay! Jaqen H’ghar is my favourite GoT/ASOIAF character, in case that wasn’t clear. :))) (And it’s super mutual!)

What kind a fic are you writing?

You know. Johnlock. :P

Kidding. I mean, I’m not, but - it’s on the dark side. Will eventually end well, but I’ll be posting a lot of warnings with it.
