#1: Lovely, subtle, and so much sadder for us than for the characters who will never know that there's anything tragic about this moment in their lives.
#2: Yaaaaay Victor Trevor! I love me some Victor Trevor. I do a little happy dance whenever anyone writes him, which is not very often.
#3: Oooh, ouch. Tantalizing AU with a neat twist--I'd love to see a longer fic in this universe. Say, was it you who wrote that great young!Holmes/Moriarty story a while back? I've totally forgotten who wrote that. The actual story was basically a conversation between Holmes and Mycroft.
#4: Ouch again. This is gorgeous and, like all of them, very in-character. Using Watson's POV just shows more sharply how lonely Holmes is and how little Watson, or anyone, really understands.
#5: Awwwww. Very nice. Holmes can get a break after all, just when everything seems bleakest--and Watson, like that dude in "The Yellow Face," is a better man than the person who loves him thought he was. (For the record, I had no difficulty figuring out what was going on in this or any of the other vignettes, but Holmesiana comes easily to my usually sieve-like memory.)
