Clasping hands in delight now. I'm so happy you found that amusing! (There hasn't been much comic relief so far!)
That is a wonderful snippet of sound. It was very considerate of your owl to lend just the right note to the mood! (I don't seem to have any night birds around me, just the occasional startled day bird chirping in confusion when it's disturbed in the dark.)
John seems to be teetering on the edge of something, or have something barely under control, through most of Hounds, all through the series really, but especially in that episode. Lashing out seemed a definite possibility. (There's that scene in the first episode where he curses his leg angrily to Mrs Hudson and then apologises and, of course, when he jumps on Sherlock's back in Scandal and doesn't apologise.)
This still has the Edgar Allan Poe atmosphere; it can fit both into the canon world and into an AU world.
We're nearly there then. Keeping my fingers crossed for the next installments.
