Summary
An established-relationship story.
"If you will not have a care for your own sake, you might think of me," I finished, rather angrily. "You will break your health and shorten your life."
"My dear Watson," he said, "that line of argument will not serve. One of my greatest comforts in life is the moral certainty that I will predecease you. You will do without me a deal better than I should without you."
It was such a dreadful thing to say that for a few moments I sat speechless in my chair.

My Gentle Sin Is This by janeofarc

Summary
It takes a near miss for Holmes to realize that he cannot imagine his life without Watson.
“You found me,” I said softly, gratefully. “You came back for me.” It was all I could say, and I repeated it quietly to myself as Holmes began to ease me to my feet.“I’ll always come back for you, Watson,” he said, his voice beginning to return to the tone of cool interest which was its usual character. “I am only sorry it took such a very long time.” An embarrassed melancholy touched his features, and I hated to see it.

Summary
Watson is slowly but surely recuperating after the capture of Killer Evans in Mr. Nathan Garrideb's cellar - which came right on the heels of the harrowing experience he and Holmes shared on the Dutch steamship Friesland.
As relieved as Watson is to have come out of those incidents relatively unscathed, he comes to recognise his relationship with Holmes is strained for mysterious reasons.
When Holmes abruptly decides to end their partnership and ask him to leave 221b, a devastated Watson must pick himself up from the rubble of his life and come up with a new plan for his bleak, Holmesless future.
But he can't stop himself from wondering about the real reason has Holmes abandoned him. Why now? Whatever did he do to deserve such treatment from his trusted partner — not to mention the great love of his life and his closest companion?

Remarkably Badly by the_bedheaded_league

Tags
Summary
After the events of the Solitary Cyclist, Watson fixates on his own mistakes and wonders if Holmes might be better off without his assistance. Holmes is quick to correct this misconception and make sure his doctor knows just how badly he needs him by his side.
Inspired by a moment in the Granada episode, but can be read as any version of Holmes that you prefer. Rated E for brief sexual content but this is not a smut fic.

Summary
“I… I will not be able to convince him to stop fighting.” Patroclus said carefully, wary of displeasing a god, “Even my word cannot dissuade him from his destiny.”
“See that’s the fun part, you don’t have to convince him of anything.” Hypnos smiled, “In fact, you don’t have to do anything for this plan. We’re just gonna take you out of the equation for a little bit, that’s all, grant Achilles some clarity of mind.” Patroclus’ eyes went wide as he put it together, fists clenching on his thighs at Hypnos’ blithe air over such a cruel plan.
“I am to be held hostage?” he rasped, heart heavy and throat tight, “To be used against Achilles like... like a favored toy dangled over a misbehaving child?”

Summary
Achilles/Patroclus. When Patroclus, the clumsy son of a disappointed father, is exiled to Phthia for fostering, he feels totally justified in his dislike for the king's son. After all, who could possibly tolerate someone so arrogant, so narcissistic, and so wholly and completely everything that he wants to be? Rated M for later chapters.

Summary
Vuosi on 1908. Koskelan Akselilla ja Leppäsen Aunella on juttua. Kivivuoren Oskulla ja Leppäsen Aunella on myös juttua. Ja lisäksi Koskelan Akseli katselee salavihkaa Kivivuoren Oskun pikkusiskon perään. Kivivuoren Osku tykkää vähän kiusata Koskelan Akselia, ja sehän on helppoa, koska Koskelan Akselia ei ole juuri huumorintajulla siunattu. Eikä kovin laajalla taitovalikoimallakaan. Onneksi Oskulla on taitoja vaikka muille jakaa.
