I found this story - like many descriptions of Doyle’s face - beautifully flawed. Now there's a poetic way to say it - what a lovely description! It's interesting, isn't it,that the doctor scene jars with most of us - even those like me who love unreservedly.
I think the point in your last paragraph is a very valid one. A new Angelfish fic is an event, expectations are incredibly high when it happens. She writes so few and is held in such high regard, as you say her norm is so damn good, that any flaws /inconsistencies maybe stand out more somehow?
I'm with you, though. It's a fic I will read and savour again and again.
