Summary
In the hours following Sherlock's Fall, John struggled to get to see his friend for the last time. It fell to Mycroft and Molly to keep him away and to make him sell the lie on which Sherlock's entire mission depended.
This is a bit of a thought piece. I've always been bothered by John's ignorance of the true happenings of Sherlock's "death," reasoning that it would have taken wild horses to keep him away from the body after the Fall. And John would not have been satisfied with a brief glimpse at a body double, so the balance of probability is that he never saw the body at all. This is my attempt to work my way through how anyone could have kept John away from Sherlock that one last time.
