That’s it. ‘Ghost Story’ is now my official Sting song for Sherlock post Reichenbach

I watch the western sky
The sun is sinking
The geese are flying south
It sets me thinking
I did not miss you much
I did not suffer
What did not kill me
Just made me tougher

I feel the winter come
His icy sinews,
Now in the firelight
The case continues

Another night in court
The same old trial
The same old questions asked
The same denial

The shadows closing round
Like jury members
I look for answers in
The fire’s embers

Why was I missing then
That whole December?
I give my usual line,
I don’t remember

Another winter comes
His icy fingers creep
Into these bones of mine
These memories never sleep
And all these differences
A cloak I borrow
We kept our distances
Why should it follow that
I must have loved you?

What is a force that binds the stars?
I wore this mask to hide my scars
What is the power that moves the tide?
Never could find a place to hide

What moves the earth around the sun?
What could I do but run and run and run?
Afraid to love, afraid to fail
A mast without a sail

The moon’s a fingernail
And slowly sinking
Another day begins
And now I’m thinking
That this is indifference
Was my invention
When everything I did
Sought your attention

You were my compass star
You were my measure
You were a pirate’s map
Of buried treasure

If this was all correct
The last thing I’d expect
The prosecution rests
It’s time that I confessed
I must have loved you
I must have loved you


So far… ‘Shape of My Heart’ the Demolition Man album version is Mycroft’s; ‘When The Angels Fall’ is Greg’s; ‘It’s Probably Me’ the Ten Summoner’s Tale album version is John’s,  and some extra crack with ‘Fortress Around Your Heart’ for Mycroft - Sherlock brotherhood.

Lol I’m such a Sting fanatic =)).  

It’s also kinda funny that I can imagine John seeing his own situation in ‘Ghost Story’ and vice versa for Sherlock. 

‘When The Angels Fall’ makes me want to write fic haha.

All Soul’s Day by Ghislainem70


A (mainly) Mystrade fic that’s very well paced in regard to actions and emotions. Sherlock and John’s part also develops naturally and sometimes is very moving. The relationships are beautifully built and depicted, and the details are quite extraordinary. BAMF!Everyone =)

I’ve been avoiding reading it because it’s a bit long, but now that I’ve started… I can’t stop.

What I had in my mind when I posted this question was that Sherlock kicks all of his dirty clothes into a corner/ under the bed, then once every two months or so he brings them to St. Bart to incinerate. The clothes are replaced by an auto online order.
