Reccer's comments: This missing scene fic for TSoT is keenly observed and beautifully written and quietly tragic. Sherlock teaching John to dance is certainly ripe ground for fic, but![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
holyfant puts her own delicate spin on it. The attention to detail and the weight of what's left unsaid make this as intimate and careful as a held breath, and Sherlock's belated self-awareness of his own desires is heartbreaking. There's so much story and knowledge of the characters packed into just a few thousand words. It's phenomenal work.
