[Both Mycroft and Bacall look at him with the same expression of surprise.
He knows of the time differential between him and Sherlock, but this...five years? No wonder he asked about Sherlock's faked death.]
I...see. It was 2017.
[The events of Sherrinford seemed like a lifetime ago, though, after Norfinbury.
Though back in Norfinbury, John obviously knew Mary and had come from a time not long from his own. Mary had discussed something similar of the sort when he first arrived, she'd mentioned that John said nothing of Norfinbury to her back in their own home world. So he'd been returned to their home with no memory of his time there, and brought back to Norfinbury later knowing her, of course. Or maybe this difference here in the Meadous was the disparity between their the alternate universes. The Norfinbury of John here versus his own.
Bacall huffs at the same time Mycroft does.
Someone was going to need to start a new field of study on the multiverse if there wasn't a proper book about it in the library already.]
