It's great seeing the aftermath of "The Great Game" through Lestrade's eyes. Your story really shows the depth of affection Lestrade has for Sherlock and John. I love the way Lestrade pulls a "Sherlock" and sneaks into the building to find his favourite consulting detective, despite the protests of everyone else on the scene. I found his shock genuinely moving, especially when Donovan is worried enough to cover him with a blanket and even Mycroft seems to understand what he's going through.
