Summary
“Um.” Mel looked down. “I still don’t know what everyone’s talking about. Honestly. That’s just how he looks at me.”
Diana’s eyebrows shot up. “You’re saying he looks at you like that often?”
Mel rolled her head. “I mean, we work together a lot. Maybe I’m not seeing what other people are seeing because to me, that’s just… how he looks.” She glanced at Langdon, who was looking at her the same way he always did, and for some reason, it made the feather dance that time, and she had to look away.
----
When a Tiktok of an after hours save goes viral for their undeniable chemistry, Mel King and Frank Langdon are thrust into the spotlight and asked to do a publicity tour to help fundraise. Mel finds it increasingly difficult to keep her feelings for her happily married colleague under wraps in interviews, but Frank’s been keeping a secret that millions of people are about to learn before she does.- Language:

Summary
In the years after Vivian Norbury's capture, life seems to work out just as John planned. He's got that respectable job at the surgery and goes home to his wife and child. He joins Sherlock on cases a couple times per week. It's a rhythm he can live with - just enough adrenaline highs to balance out the drudgery of a normal bloke's life.
Until a pandemic, and Victor Trevor, arrive in London.

Summary
Sherlock is home, he and John are returning to cases, and all's right with the world--right? But a series of minor mishaps and injuries makes two things very clear to his friends and family: first, Sherlock's time away wasn't the grand adventure everyone has assumed it was; and second, that time has left Sherlock with a legacy that's bleeding into his life today. Sherlock is Not Okay, and it's not going away.
EDIT: I have now made this part of a series, since I am going to be doing occasional one-offs in this same universe.
WORKS INSPIRED BY THIS ONE: The lovely Aunt_Didi has begun a podfic of this work--it can be found on both of our dashboards.
