It's been a long few years for our favourite partnership. But they finally admit they love each other and today? Today is their wedding day. Just a little fluff I felt the need to write

[Spoilers 1x23/1x24; Post-Finale] The sixteen years old version of herself would be so mad about it. Pride and arrogance are one thing, the kind that brilliant minds can afford; but love? Love is a common thing, futile and useless. Losing for love is for people like Sherlock. Not for her. Never for her.

She turns to Sherlock, watches him watching the hives within the barely there shades of twilight. The moon glow and industrial light set the evening air in hues of navy and lavender, everything set in a state of gloss and shimmer.

This pale light has its own appeal... (This is a strong M, you've been warned.)

"He shrugs off his jacket and hooks it around back of her. It smells of boot polish and coffee and some spicy something that she can't identify."

He wakes to the sensation of her face pressed into his back. It is the nicest feeling he has ever felt in a really long time. He doesn't leave her bed like he normally does. This time he deduces her because finally, he thinks that he might just love her. (Sherlock H. /Joan W.)

anhedonia (n): the inability to experience pleasure. Sherlock is a lost cause. The only thing that has kept him from relapse is his work, but will that be enough? Takes place while Joan is his sober companion. Tw: graphic description of drug use, addiction, depression, mild suicidal ideation
