Sherlock listened intently, taking in every morsel of information that he could. It seemed that not only was John not nervous or hesitant to talk about his past, but that it was actually, for the most part, a good one.
"So, your mother was one of the Fallen, the angels that were cast out of the Garden." He said. That was rare, he knew. There were all sorts of demons of all types. But the Fallen, they were special. They were the oldest of the old, created when the world was still new. That meant that she was eons old. She could have borne many offspring in her thousands of years. Were there other half-demons out there, half siblings of John, he wondered? When had John been born, and was his human father still alive?
Those were questions that he didn't ask. Maybe another time.
The next question was just as tricky as the first. It would affect how Sherlock went into this new, burgeoning relationship.
"Demons can live thousands of years, but humans less than a century. I am sure that you are not as long lived as your mother. How long to half-demons usually live?
