smallhobbitThe fifth and final chapter of "Legacy" is now posted. I don't expect it to get much attention; the pairing is Sherlock Holmes/Stanley Hopkins, it's not got any porn, it's not even a casefic. But despite all that I'm actually rather proud of it. (Note the typical British reserve).
It's 14,000 words long, so the longest fic I've ever written. It's different from the sort of things I normally write, much darker and more angsty. I was extremely grateful to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
impishtubist whose encouragement and beta-ing skills helped to bring it into shape. Also for her vision of Richard Armitage as Stanley Hopkins.
The story is set about seven years after His Last Vow. It takes one momentous incident and shows how the lives of several people are turned upside down. I know that a number of people have written or are writing "fix-it" fics for the end of series 3; this could be described as mine, although the "fix" won't be to many people's liking.
