Summary: What would have happened if John had helped Sherlock dismantle Moriarty’s network? After the fall and funeral, John despairs, but also embraces a glimmer of hope—that Sherlock is alive. Sometimes wishes do come true.
This alternative universe follows John as he and Sherlock work to hunt those who seek to harm the ones they love. In the process who knows, they may even save each other.
This story diverges at the end of season 3. There is no Eurus (thank you very much).
Thank you so much to Avengers Reader (also know as @givemesherbet-blog-blog on Tumblr) who not only is beta'ing this story, but who it’s for! She suggested this incredible premise. For Fandom Trumps Hate
