Haha, no problem, and thank you for answering! I'm glad Sherlock has eaten your brain and I hope you keep writing him! :D
I love your points about Sherlock's enthusiasm especially. It was one of the things that really surprised me about the series at the beginning. When I started watching it, I thought it might be stuffy and boring (I don't know why I thought this, but there you are), but I was totally unprepared for how much fun Sherlock has with his work, how much he genuinely loves doing the "legwork" that Mycroft disdains. And that's what makes him totally loveable, despite his faults.
I also like that he's a bit easier to write when childish or bitchy or superior, lol. I think it is more his natural state. :)
Thanks again for your thoughts (and amazing stories)!
