Scorn and the Saint-Maker, chapter 19: No, there's no making sense of it

Scorn and the Saint-Maker is a murder mystery/ineffable husbands romance/who-turned-them-human Good Omens fanfic, set at a university in Scotland, with lots of (as-yet skippable) level-5 smut, ✨sexy maths✨ (reportedly), and one trans angel

Chapter 19 summary: Demonology-adjacent research is attempted. (Unsurprisingly, there are distractions. There are even distractions to the distractions.)

Rating: Chapter rated just barely E, for a brief smutty bit which is skippable. (M otherwise.)

Notices/warnings: Mention of STI tests & private parts, including one crude/direct 🍆 mention outside the skippable bit

i was pretty excited to get the ao3 emails for the new chapters. gonna have to re read a bit to get back up to speed.

He thinks about going to Sherlock, wrapping his arms around his slim body, holding him and comforting him in his terrible sorrow. But the distance between them feels like an ocean, like the expanse of the cold Atlantic between here and London, and he has no idea how to cross that vast chasm, or even if Sherlock wants him to.

They are here together, the two of them against the world a thousand miles from home–but John suddenly sees that in a profound way, each locked inside their private grief, they’ve never been more alone.

Green.

The word green was used to convey a great many things. Illness. Envy. Inexperience.

Standing there amidst Janine’s chattering bridesmaids, watching Sherlock furrow his brow and study fabric swatches, watching him smile and simper and flirt, John thought it a remarkably apt colour choice. Because he felt quite sick to his stomach, he feared the source of said sickness might very well be jealousy, and he had absolutely no idea at all what to do about it.

Or: Sherlock needs to fake a relationship for a case. He doesn’t ask John.

Chapter 11 is now posted!

In which the wedding day has finally arrived.

Of Dressing Gowns and Other Foibles Update (etc)

So, I unexpectedly got stuck on the last chapter. Writer's block. My mind just went blank and I was dealing with so many stressful things at once and just couldn't work it out--what the tone should be, etc. I just kinda lost it. I'm still stressed tbh, but now I'm back working on it. I can't promise when the update will be out (I don't want to rush it bc I want a satisfying conclusion), but I'm working on it steadily and am aiming for sooner rather than later. Sorry for the delay.

I also have really been in the mood to get back to work on Somewhere in the Etcetera, so you can expect some progress on that soon as well if you had been reading that.
