Summary
"You've never not called me "Detective Inspector'."
Mycroft smirks, the fakest thing Lestrade has ever seen.
"Apologies, Detective Inspector," he snarks, and there-!
A tremor in his voice. He's breaking in. Slowly but surely, he's falling inward, the panic loud and demanding, forcing itself back up into the forefront.
It's a battle of patience and wits, and it's one Lestrade's determined to win.

Sherlock was bored, so he indulges in his past love. Dancing while playing the violin. He's afraid of being caught so he plays and dances while John is out, but when John catches him in the act he thinks, maybe he shouldn't be so afraid after all.
In fact, John quite likes what he sees. Fluff ensues!Series

Summary
Fluffy take on how the relationship between Sherlock Holmes and John Watson bloomed and turned into something more. All the joys and struggles of being together and figuring out one's feelings, a first drunken kiss - an experiment, I mean (for science, John!) - first date and perhaps even a first time. If Sherlock would want to do it, of course, since he considers himself asexual. But John is patient and understanding...

How it should have happened: Sherlock by Twilight684
Fandom: Sherlock (TV), Sherlock Holmes & Related Fandoms
20 May 2024
Summary
A retelling of BBC's Sherlock and how I feel things should have happened and how the boys' relationship could/should have developed. I've already mentioned it in the notes in the first fic in this series, but I'll say it again here. I plan on at least getting through the episodes up to The Reichenbach Fall at the very least, but I may continue past that and finish the entire series since I did find the cases interesting in season 3 and 4.(Though I'm still debating at this point in time whether or not I want The Final Problem to be included or if I want to completely ignore the fact that Eurus Holmes exists because, as interesting as I found that episode, I was honestly really freaking confused by her motivations and the fact that Sherlock was able to get her to just give up so easily at the end and I'm not really sure how I would go about fixing that if I decide to keep her existence canon) I also may even continue this series past that point just because I love these boys and I really love writing them.

They should discuss the change of their relationship. They really should. It's not every day after all that you snog your best friend in the kitchen.
Still, it's hard to find an appropriate time to talk about your feelings, when you chase after a serial killer.-

Summary
John is a sixth year Gryffindor in love with his best friend, Ravenclaw Sherlock. Even the fact that he knows it's unrequited hasn't helped. He makes an unexpected new acquaintance one day in the form of an otter, which is just as well, since Sherlock starts acting odder than usual and even disappearing at times, without explanation when he shows up again.
John worries about that and wonders about the fact that the otter turns up roughly as Sherlock vanishes, even as he's enjoying the companionship of the little creature. The answer isn't anything he expects, certainly, but it might prove what he needs, regardless.-
