Title: Brandy and Soda Link: http://holmestice.livejournal.com/384038.html Character/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, references to John Watson/Mary Morstan Rating: Teen Warning: major character death (Mary Morstan) Summary: "My dear fellow," said Holmes not unkindly, holding me by the arm, "you mustn’t take it so hard. I tell you I am going to recover. But I need time. It may be a long time." After a pause, he went on hastily. "But I shall return to Baker Street, you have my word. Please give my best to Mrs. Watson." (Seven Percent Solution)
Rec: This is a sad but beautiful bonus fic filling in another missing scene in Meyer's continuity, imagining how "The Empty House" might have played out with a Holmes who had stayed away not because of Moriarty but because of his own journey through recovery.
