Verse: Sherlock BBC

Author's summary: Fan art for Mamishka’s Fallen fic, go read it <333

Reccer's comments: This is a riveting portrait of Guardian Angel!John from Mamishka's excellent fic series Fallen, which I recommend (the third fic has not yet been posted, but as of this summer it sounds like Mamishka is planning to continue). You can see the fic rec for Fallen here.

If you haven't read the fic, the image itself won't tell you much, but an analysis might give too much away. So, I'm putting my brief comments behind the cut. I like the intensity in GA!John's expression and his lined face. Although GA!John's appearance changes after he loses his wings and John Watson dies, I like the artist's decision to show us the moment in Fallenwhen GA!John's wings and JHW's clothing are both present. This moment makes visible one certainty: John the Guardian Angel and John the Wingless Mortal inhabiting the body and borrowing the memories of an ex-RAMC officer are the same in at least one sense. They are fiercely protective of one Consulting Detective. Endanger him at your peril.
