Proper Incentives Part 1 (link to Part 2 at the end)
Author: jenlee1
Pairing: Holmes/Watson
Rating: R
Length ~ 15,000
Warnings: None
Verse: Ritchie
Author's Summary: A reflection on useless regrets and impossible choices, and the price of an error in judgment.
A/N: Written for a fic prompt by ingridmatthews asking for Blackmailed!Watson, put in the unenviable position of having to renounce his relationship with Holmes to save them both. As such, be forewarned - this is somewhat AU, in that I've ignored Watson's marriage entirely and taken some significant liberties with canon events regarding the lead-up to FINA.
Reccer's Comment: Watson's helpless, hopeless despair is heartbreaking and beautifully portrayed. Moriarty is a brilliant portrait of pure evil. Make no mistake, this is pure AAAAAngst of the most delicious sort and absolutely not to be missed.
