Oh, I definately enjoyed it, and I especially loved the tweak you put on the ending. I felt that John wanting to see the night sky rather than say his prayers and make his peace with God was an in-character change suitable to the Sherlock universe. I also really loved how John was the one who took care of business in the end, instead of waiting to be rescued.

Additionally, I liked how you tied in the Sherlock universe with the line: "His voice and his hand were steady". Nice mental imagery.
