Summary: John gets to meet the 3rd Holmes.
Author's Note: This story is for awanderingbard. Our back and forth comments chat inspired this. It's a bit silly and was mainly an excuse to have a chance for Q and Mrs. Hudson to interact briefly. Sherlock is in a bad mood pretty much from start to finish so please excuse his behavior. In his defense, he hasn't slept in awhile. The song mentioned is this one. It seriously is annoying.

TUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKAAAAAAAA

 

TWO MORE, BABY.

It was, mostly, a boring, trivial and annoying day.

But the evening was lovely. Lynne and Lisa were at my place; when they I walked with Lynne down Third Avenue and up bank, and it was a lovely, cool evening, not quite dark yet even though it was around ten o'clock.

Seems to me I should think of something cool to do to mark the solstice. But what?

See previous part for notes.

( They win the game 5-0. Sid has two goals and two assists, and the fans go half insane cheering for him. Naturally everyone on the planet wants to talk to him afterward. Geno packs up his hockey bag and waits. As soon as Sid gets free of reporters, he materializes at Geno's side...Collapse )

Pairing: Sid/Geno
Rating: Explicit

Summary: In this rewriting of history, Sid gets an experimental treatment for his concussion that has some rather unusual side effects. Geno helps him out, and there are complications.

Notes: This story would bear much less resemblance to actual facts if it weren't for the hard work of my beta readers, stlkrchck and mindyfromohio. Thank you! There are still some (hopefully minor) details of the Penguins fall 2011 schedule that I'm fudging in places where history just refused to cooperate with my dramatic arc. Beware dub con of the sex pollen variety.

( Worry spikes in Geno's chest, and it only grows worse when he gets close enough to make out Sid's face in the dim light, feverish and glassy-eyed. He puts the back of his hand against Sid's forehead, well trained by his mother. Sid is burning up, and he moans out loud at the touch. Geno snatches his hand away, afraid he's hurting him. This only makes Sid moan louder, with more distress…Collapse )

After seeing Man of Steel a second time, I stand by my original assessment: I liked it, but didn't love it. ( Cut for spoilersCollapse )

Today's good thing: it's been a busy day. I got a tire put on, made an eye doctor appointment for J, did laundry, paid the electric bill, went by Walmart, watched the birds and squirrels and dragonflies and lizards, talked to my BFF, had to call a wig company about the wig I ordered for my aunt, and made dinner.

I also talked to my aunt, who doesn't sound too good. I told her I would come up Thursday when I'm off.

I texted Robbie yesterday to tell him the worse news about our aunt. He called me after I got home and said that I sprang this on him, since it was the first he'd heard of it. Excuse me? I called him first when my aunt showed me the place on her breast, hoping he might call her an dhelp convice her to go to the doctor. Then when she was officially diagnosed, I called him to tell him that, and that they would begin chemo after she got her port-a-cath. I asked if maybe he had been drinking the other two times. He said no, he hadn't drank in 6 months. I don't believe that, but that's beside the point. He said a lot of stuff that didn't make sense. He told me he broke his foot falling over wood after he got back from hunting, while wearing snake boots. Last night he said, maybe I did tell him, since he "fell off the ladder", he had trouble remembering stuff. I don't know if this is a separate accident or what. In any case, he says he's going to try and visit soon. I'll believe it when I see it.

I talked to Jan today and for once I got to whine and moan and complain. I told her I couldn't remember the last time I wasn't worried about something... bills usually. Property taxes are looming again(last year's this time), we're still catching up the truck payments. And this with my aunt has really hit me hard, I was complaining about that too, losing all my mother figures. I worry about my own health as well. I'm always sore and aching from work and I always worry, what if it's not just from work? And then I Google it and scare the shit out of myself.

I dread what's ahead for my aunt. I've been thinking a lot about what Mom went through and what J's mom went through. I always thought my uncle would go first - - he has so many health problems, and my aunt has always been... not healthy(she was my grandmother's last child, born when she was in her late 40s, and was sickly as a child), but she hardly ever got really sick. I'm just... ugh.
