Artist: lesmoules
Pairing: Gen
Rating: PG
Warnings: none
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: none
Reccer's comments: No S3 spoilers
As a Sally Donovan fan, it's wonderful to see her racing down a street, easily matching John's strides, gun* in hand, a look of determination on her face. I adore seeing her and John working together, especially as they are often represented at odds in fics. Here there's a sense of shared purpose and capability. They have each other's back.
* = I'm aware that guns are not Lestrade or his team's division, but it is nice to see a woman be the one bearing this traditionally masculine symbol of power.

Date: 2014-01-23 06:23 am (UTC)This work reminds me of a scene in the opening chapter of Wordstrings's _All the Best and Brightest Creatures_, in which Sally is running, and quite fast too, in heels when she, Lestrade, and Sherlock are chasing a suspect. That moment and this art have stuck in my head, because they treat Donovan positively and because anyone who can run in heels has my admiration. I mean I can't even walk in heels any more, let alone run (though I have done so)! :)
