    Summary

    Oscar studies him clearly from mussed hair to scuffed boot, focusing in on the strange half-second in which he felt his way along the pew in order to move closer. Time had not been kind to either of them, leaving its obvious marks in various places. Instead of pointing out new scars, the wrinkled state of his jacket, how the knot of his tie was not quite tight enough, he simply drinks him all in to the best of his impartial ability. It is not easy.

    “You’re still thin,” he admonishes kindly. “That always worried me, you know?”

    Carefully he lifts his remaining hand to Arthur’s face, palm cupping one side of his jawline as if feeling along the bone there. Automatically Arthur closes his eyes, sinking into the touch. Just as soon as he leans against the fleeting shiver of heat, it’s gone.

     

    Arthur and John return to what they left behind, hoping for a fresh start.

    Summary

    It wouldn't be the first time the inevitability of things hurt someone Sherlock cared about.

    It wouldn't be the last time he wasn't able to stop it - to predict what would happen, let his mind piece together a crime scene before it turned more deadly than it already was.

    If not every time, if only this one instance - he, at least, should have been able to stop Watson from opening that door.

    Summary

    Arthur wakes up. So many of his memories lately start with this. He wakes up, and everything hurts, and John is saying something—but John’s not saying anything this time, and there’s someone in this room with Arthur that sounds a lot like his friend.
    --
    John’s voice always rose and fell, low into a deep growling bass and high into a rough yell. But one constant, one word that never sounded different no matter the tone was how he said Arthur’s name. Emphasis on the ‘ar’ and ‘ur’, the ‘th’ in the middle always smooth like wind. Other people tended to hiss that sound, the ‘th’. With John, it seemed he knew exactly how to say it to make it glide.

    Based on all that, he deduced it was in fact John saying, “Arthur!”
