[It's encouraging, knowing Sherlock would forgive him for all those sad and terrible memories, but it's still awful that the man he loves would have to suffer them in the first place.

Eventually he sighs and leans in, finding comfort in the familiar touch of their foreheads. That one gesture works wonders for grounding him and easing his mind.]

I'm glad we have good things finally happening for us, though. The latter part of the Witches' Game....

[He still has trouble talking about it, even in therapy. How he tumbled down the slippery slope after Sherlock died. The Erhard that ripped Anon apart, the one that plotted and murdered Emi... that Erhard is part of him. That voice still whispers to him whenever Sherlock is in distress, the darker side of emotional freedom.]

... I'm sorry I'm still such a mess sometimes.

[He still wish Erhard had not done those things, but while he made the choice - they were put through a crucible, with high emotions, Sherlock sensed under normal circumstances that his lover would not have been a killer]

They were terrible and extraordinary circumstances, My Dear, and is there anyone that is not 'a mess' in some fashion?

[cryosurgeon]

I know. My therapist said depression makes it difficult to let go of self-flagellation, especially when one's own actions caused the problem. Terrible and extraordinary circumstances aren't an excuse to my mind. But it's a process, and I'm having more good days than I used to.

[Cool, soft fingers touch Sherlock's cheek.]

I wouldn't try to become your Master if I thought I was too unstable to handle it. I don't want anything to happen to you because of me.
