Author's Summary:
If you remember getting exploded in 2010 and now it's 2007, does that make you dead, insane, high, or a time traveller?

Review:
Really a delightful story.  Captures the dark elegance of canon.  I love the characterizations and voices.  The plot (so far) is classic but well-written with John and Sherlock both ending up on a redo a few years before the explosion in the pool and both trying to figure out what happened.  For awhile there, they also think they've lost each other because John's still in Afghanistan in 2007 so they don't realize they've both come back together - this gets the ship plot off to a great start.  This story is going straight on my excellent fics list.  WIP, but currently updating.
