Oh, wow, thank you! I'm glad you were able to enjoy this even without having seen any of the BBC series. That means a lot.
This was actually written just before the final episode of series 2 aired, so I had no idea how they would adapt "The Final Problem." Thus, this version of Holmes' death is more of a generalized one. I'm pleased you were able to understand it, regardless.
Thanks for taking the time to read and comment! And I hope you enjoy the BBC's version once you get a chance to watch it. Believe it or not, they actually stick pretty close to the original stories.
