Do I, maybe, have a Type? :)

If you do, then I have as well. :-)

My fic (if you can call it that - it's dialogue only) is here. It's Doctor Who crossover, if you aren't into that show I'm not sure it will work...

he seems, well, very used to doing as Sherlock says without question.

I think it worked beautifully and you showed how surprised he was himself that he drifted down so quickly. I thought it entirely plausible.

it was that "abandoned" verb that hit me really hard

Yes, that one got me right in the chest. Imagining Sherlock desperately trying to prevent himself from messing up...is just so. FEEEEEELS *g*
