Summary
"Sherlock Holmes has been dead for almost three years, and John hardly thinks of him anymore."
Originally called untitled post-Reichenbach thing before the episode airs and kills my headcanon, and it was exactly that. Written January 14 2012, the day before The Reichenbach Fall aired, it was my attempt to preserve my headcanon for posterity. Even after the airing of the episode, this remains pretty canonical, with the obvious exceptions.
New title is inspired by the Child Ballad "Cold Blows the Wind/The Unquiet Grave":
"When will we meet again, dear heart? When will we meet again?/ When the oaken leaves that fall from the trees have grown green, and sprung up again."Series

Summary
"'You're wondering what happened.' Holy shit, he sounds just like John remembers. Deep, calm. It's like nothing ever happened. It's like everything's the same as it had always been. Somehow, that's not okay at all. To collapse time -- to erase the past, erase his pains; that's not okay. Here he stands again, alive, as if things will be the same. As if death can be stared down. "
This fic was mainly conceived because I was imagining a Reichenbach reunion with an emotionally-constipated hug (and drew a picture).
