* Holmes's canonical conversation with Culverton Smith gets a rewrite from Holmes's PointOfView. He's dying with Smith gloating over him - needless to say, it's a pretty intense, heart-in-your-throat scene.

* Some of Holmes's torture scenes are longer and more graphic than others, but none of them are fully played-out. This might be considered worse than seeing them all blow-for-blow - especially the poker scene, which is only mentioned afterwards and never described in-detail. All we know is that Sherlock [[SayMyName screamed his brother's name]].

* When the narrative looks at Holmes's rescue via Lestrade's [=POV=], Holmes's appearance is described in detail, including this: ''his gaunt face bruised, burnt, and scarred, his half-clothed body far more so'' and this: ''The ragged shirt [...] hanging in tatters on Holmes's truly emaciated frame.''

With ''Mortality'' essentially being a torture!fic and various other one-shots written in that vein, there's definitely some disturbing stuff.
