John and Sherlock have some mutual learning to do. Short, fluffy piece, set in the same universe as Unusual Symmetry.

you lasted 2 seasons? I didn’t even last 4 episodes. you are very very patient.

Or yes! It’s sooo much fun to write! I’m so excited about it. (it’s complicated though. it’s a bit like trying to figure out the logistics of a sex scene, but with without the naughty bits.)

If we’re talking how a story starts in my head, then it’s plot driven. (If it’s not a very short slice-of-life, like a breakfast fic.) But if we’re talking about how I open fics, then it’s almost always character based, and the plot ends up hidden some seven chapters away, it feels.”Getting to the point” has never been my strong suit. 

I think this is one reason for the enduring popularity of the “escape on Will’s boat” setting. There’s nothing but them and the sea, plus being trapped in a tiny space with nowhere to sit but on each other’s laps. (Also with the boat though, there’s more of an element of being in Will’s territory, which is kind of new for them? Usually they’re in Hannibal’s spaces and Hannibal’s comfort zones on the show.)

yep. bored bored people.
