Canon Story: A Study in Scarlet
Title: Reminiscences
Author: thesmallhobbit
Rating: PG
Two of the characters look back to the events told in this story.

Looking back I still remember our first meeting, little knowing how much of an effect one man would have on my life.  Much has happened in the intervening years; I still write to Holmes periodically and he tells me of his bees and the occasional adventure of his.  And Lestrade and I will lie together and reminisce on past times.

And:

I had little time for Holmes and his ways, preferring the more traditional policing methods.  Over the years I was to come to change my mind and appreciate the contribution he could make.  Above all else I have to thank him for introducing me to the man who was sharing his flat; the one who would change my life forever.

Ha, having found it a few weeks ago, I find it very difficult to let go of it ;)

I feel a bit sorry for Holmes here, alone as he is. Well, at least he seems happy with his bees, even if he's not as happy as the doctor and the inspector. :)

Whilst Holmes is occasionally a little lonely, he is aware that he could never provide the sort of companionship that the other two benefit from.
