A/N. I just really love Mary.

It was not unusual for John to disappear for days with Mr Holmes, and I did not begrudge it, though there had been unusual strain in his face before our last parting. I worried.

He returned, pale, worn and grief-stricken. I greeted him with a kiss, and then could do nothing but hold him as he shook in my arms.

This is very touching. I adore your Mary, so dignified, brave, and loving of her husband, a dedicated and mourning friend. You've packed a lot of feeling into a very few words.
