John solved the mystery but (as with anything to do with Moriarty) killing one person didn't fix everything.

The ceremony was... interesting. Mrs. Hudson preformed all the magic since Mr. and Mrs. Holmes's generation was skipped. John was forbidden to speak of it which didn't matter much to him; after all, who would he tell?

John learned that Mrs. Hudson was just using the ward she had John try was just a test. He left Mrs. Hudson's flat and loitered in the foyer. He didn't want to go upstairs quite yet. John's familiar, the magpie Tenebris, flew to his shoulder and John gave him an affectionate pet. "There are police at the door, they can't make it past the spells to knock but they'll be able to soon."

"Why are they here?" John asked. He felt stupid immediately afterwards because how would the bird know?

Tenebris rolled his eyes. "I can find out, if you'd like."

John brushed his finger along one of Tenebris's long wing feathers. He was torn, he didn't want Tenebris away from him where he could be injured but at the same time the bird would make an excellent spy.

Before John could make a decision his mobile rang. The caller ID read Greg so John answered. "Hello?"

"John! Listen, they're charging you with Molly's murder. I shouldn't be warning you but I thought you should know. Get yourself some representation. I'm working on my end, but they still have to bring you in."

"Thanks Greg." John managed before the other man had to ring off. Greg couldn't get caught warning a suspect. John hung his head; he'd left the murder weapon there with his fingerprints. His blood was everywhere. Sure, it was self-defence but John was pretty sure his scalpel work didn’t qualify. And he had fled the scene and hadn't gone to the hospital. He scrolled though his phone, Mycroft would be able to tell him what to do.

Then it hit him: Mycroft was missing. "Fuck."

Three is for Joy chapter 5 will post on AO3 around Thrusday, fanfiction dot net will update Saturday-ish. Excerpts and more info under cut.

Excerpt (One is for Sorrow): (M, pre-slash, major character death)

John had a bad feeling about this. He didn’t say anything to Sherlock, of course. Sherlock would roll his eyes and mock John for being superstitious. But as the plane landed in a frozen Polish airport, bouncing in a jarring skip that had John’s head slamming against the window John couldn’t help but think it was a bad omen.

Excerpt (Two is for Joy): (M, pre-slash, graphic violence)

…There were some apples in a bowl, Mrs. Hudson probably left them there to tempt him, they weren’t too firm but they weren’t soft either so John bit into one.

It was slightly disgusting. The crunch-scrape on his teeth and the juices flooding his mouth, the cloying sweetness instead of bitter sawdust taste coating his taste buds was nearly overwhelming.

Excerpt (Three for a Girl): (M, pre-slash, graphic violence, spoilers in tags)

John understood why Sherlock hated the bureaucracy at the Yard. John used to think the police did their best; that no one was as brilliant as his friend and Sherlock was mostly unreasonable and completely unbearable when the yarders didn’t understand. It was a bit not good when Sherlock called them all idiots. John knew that it’d be more so for him but he couldn’t help it, “You’re all bloody blind!” He chuckled a little at his audacity but continued, “God! I don’t know how Sherlock did it, I really don’t.”

Still looking for a beta, even someone pointing out one or two problems would help. If anyone wants to help with plot stuff that’d be good too. Let me know.

tbh John is grumpy even as a cat. That’s because Sherlock steals all the milk
