Aww, thanks so much, @may-shepard!! I’m happy to share it - I’ve been posting chapters since December. One chapter and an epilogue away from being complete - phew! Hoping to post the last by the end of August: Here’s Sacre Coeur on A03

After a wee fandom break, I’ll be jumping headlong into a continuation of The Man in the Iron Collar, some Johnlock magical realism I wrote for a H.I.A.T.U.S monthly prompt. Be still my beating heart, so excited/intimidated... I’m looking up your fics on A03 now!
