Summary
Mary is dead. John is finally home. People are being murdered. Sherlock is losing the ground under his feet like he’s trapped in the eye of a storm. (And no, this metaphor is not as far-fetched as it sounds.)

Summary
Sherlock has one (1) distant relative he doesn’t actually despise. This very distant relative happens to be gorgeous and smart, used to spend the summer months with Sherlock when they were both young and seems eager to pick up exactly where they left off.
When she decides to come for a visit, John is not pleased.
It’s not that he’s jealous, of course. He really isn’t jealous at all.

Summary
Ficlets / short fics (1000-3000 words) that were originally posted on tumblr. Chapters stand alone. Mostly PWP.
Sherlock has spent an unreasonable amount of time thinking about kissing John. He's never imagined it like this. He’s built it up in his head as a careful, meaningful second of contact between them. Nothing but a peck on the lips that burns through his skin and rushes through his arteries and makes its way to his fierce, brilliant brain where he can save it, treasure it, keep it save.
When it happens, it’s nothing like that. Probably because he never really expected it to happen in the first place. -

Summary
John becomes used to it. If he’s perfectly honest with himself, he’s become used to it a long time ago. At night, things are different. The darkness tickles his skin and the cemetery is the loudest place in the world and he tastes dust and iron on his tongue when he hears them talk. In the dark, the bones whisper.
And sometimes John whispers back.

Summary
Naturally, John was startled when suddenly the ultimate solution occurred to him: Marriage. This was, of course, a bit of a fundamental problem rather than an actual solution. One didn't simply use the words “Sherlock” and “marriage” within the same sentence. Not even in a hypothetical context.
(Five times John kind of wanted to propose to Sherlock, and one time he didn’t have to.) -

Summary
Sherlock Holmes has always been prone to addiction.
Falling in love, though, is something entirely different. -

Summary
John’s marriage is over and he is finally back home (i.e. at Baker Street, where he belongs).
Sherlock is awfully insecure and John is awfully hesitant, and they're both awkward idiots, of course, but they figure it out. Many First Times happen. -

Summary
“Alright?” John asks gently, planting a kiss on Sherlock’s left collar bone, smoothing a hand down his chest and belly until it rests in the soft trail of hair below his belly button. John’s smile is all soft and warm. His hand feels tender and solid and real. A soldier’s hand. A surgeon’s hand. A lover’s hand. Oh.
“John”, Sherlock gasps. And that’s where it begins.Written for a prompt on the Kink Meme: The only word Sherlock says during sex is "John".
