    Summary

    Rather than a psychosomatic limp, John returns from the war with a different manifestation of his trauma, Functional Neurologic Symptom Disorder (or what was once commonly known as "Hysterical Blindness"). As if struggling to acclimate to life with unpredictably limited vision isn't challenging enough, an unpridictable genius who sees everything turns his world upside down.

    Summary

    Sherlock owes Mycroft a favor. Mycroft calls in that favor by offering Sherlock's consulting services in a charity auction. Sherlock and John soon find themselves at the country manor of Mrs. Ives-Patton Smarmington III - not very coincidentally a long-time friend of Sherlock's mother - where they are reluctant participants in her Murder Mystery Weekend. It's a play within a play for Sherlock and John, and their roles for the weekend event bleed over into their real lives, waking the sleeping dragons within.

    Or

    In which John learns that Sherlock owing Mycroft a favor is very suspect, and Sherlock has a very bad idea.

    Summary

    The covid lockdown has finally been instituted in the UK, and Sherlock and John are quarantining in two different places. John's at Baker Street, where he's trying not to go stir crazy, is learning to adapt to the shift to telemedicine, and is keeping an eye on Mrs. Hudson -- and finding he's missing his flatmate much more than he'd anticipated (well, once the novelty's faded of the lack of alarming items in the refrigerator and not having to cope with his personal belongings continually going missing). With all of the unknowns about the coronavirus for the elderly population, Sherlock's chosen to lockdown at his parents' home to help out, and to be on hand in case of emergency. Being apart brings challenges to the two friends, and over the course of the next six weeks they'll find that they end up in a different state of mind from when they parted.
