Summary: Sometimes, her grandmother has said, in the simplest, strongest of magics that’s all that’s required – a sacrifice and an intent. Her blood, and his words: I want to forget.
In which Joanna Watson is a witch, Sherlock Holmes is himself, and every spell has its price.
===
J. Watson, she thinks as Sherlock raises the gun and aims for the explosives, his face like marble in the rippling light of the pool. J. Watson and S. Holmes. Lost in fire, 2010. Sherlock looks to her, a glance from the corner of his eye, and she nods.
Moriarty grins, wide and hollow and white as bone. “Fear death by water,” he says, and Sherlock fires.
===
Reccer's Notes: The magic aspect is fit so well into the story.
