The SMS exchanges are very funny at times. I like Lestrade in here, and Sherlock's all flustered and not sure how to approach John later on. I liked that.
The end was sad - John leaving, well...
There's still an epilogue missing, until then... ongoing.
A different author wrote a "fanfiction" on this, with Pawtal's approval. Katzedecimal's A Slip of The Finger
Personally, I like the original one more but for the sake of completeness... and it isn't a bad fanfiction, no! I just like the original better.
