Summary: John finally does leave, and Sherlock is entirely unsurprised by it. And he clearly has two options: either get him back, or die trying.



Streaming Sample:

I don't properly know what to say about this one, aside from: I needed it. So I made it, despite how intimidating it was to take on a part of the Paradox Series, due to the extent which I adore it. I started it back at the beginning of September and a lot of blood, sweat, and tears have gone into it since. I think I'm finally satisfied enough to post it.

lunchy_munchy deserves a medal or a cake or a cake shaped like a medal for the beta process, which involved quite a bit of indispensable, thorough feedback and advice interspersed with quite a bit more hand-holding and reassurance. Many thanks must also go out to lunate8 too for letting me pick her brain periodically. And another thank you to sly_hostetter and bessyboo for talking me down from an editing freakout one night over Twitter. (Podfic community = ♥♥♥)

So here it is! At long last. I can only hope it is even a fraction as good as the stunning chapters recorded by FayJay (pandarus) and bronwynferchdai that precede it.

P.S. I'm trying something new with the inclusion of the streaming sample. Let me know if it was of use to you?

OMG!!! Apparently it's still Christmas, and this is the best thing I could hope for! I love this series soo dearly and come back to it again and again, and it's always been such a disappointment that the final installment was not podficced. I've wanted it so much I thought of actually recording it myself despite no experience! I'm delighted that it didn't come to that :D

A thousand blessings on your head, and I shall come back and squee some more, I'm sure, when I've had a chance to listen.

Sounds like you are a lot like me! Except I always lose in a game of podfic chicken. I wait and I wait and I hope someone who is not me will do it so I don't have to go to the effort... and then I do it anyway. But I'm happy I could do you a service with this one. It's a series I'm constantly revisiting too. I hope you enjoy it! :D

You should try podficcing anyway! It's good fun.
