Summary
"We're chained to a boat?"
"We're chained to a boat that's afloat on the River Thames on the ebb tide, with neither oar nor engine to control or direct our progress downriver, on a cold night at a quarter to three in the morning. I might also mention the absence of any life jackets or radio equipment, but I suppose that goes without saying."
"Fuck."
“Accurate. Are you awake enough now so we can start doing something about the situation?"

Summary
“People would talk,” he tries, repurposing an old line, a shortcut to a recurring theme in their lives.
“They do little else.” John dutifully completes the circuit with a sigh. “Sherlock,” he continues haltingly, eyes falling back to his hands as he considers his words. “Would they be wrong, though, really?”

Summary
"You never asked me to make him love you back. That's always one of the first things that someone asks me, you know. 'Make him fall in love.' 'Make her love me.' 'Make him return my feelings.' 'Make him want me.' Blah, blah, blah, on and on and on. But you didn't do that. Neither did he."
This is a story of seven wishes.
One wasted wish, five wishes that changed the world, and one wish that changed nothing at all.

Summary
"What if Sherlock Holmes wanted to let John know that he was interested. In sex. In sex with John specifically?"
In which privacy is invaded, conversations are had, Sherlock eats voluntarily and John gets a bit shouty.

Summary
When Sherlock is bored, John very politely plays chess with him. He's so very obliging but he's also suffering from a seemingly desperate lust that's exacerbated when they decide that strip chess is an excellent idea.
Excellent, but very dangerous.
Fluff, smut and Sherlock and John getting naked a lot.

Summary
John and Sherlock work on a new case where the perpetrator seems overly fond of Grimm fairytales.
It's business as normal, except John is pretty sure that at some point he and Sherlock are going to have the conversation.
The Conversation. The one where they address why John can't stop thinking about Sherlock naked and why Sherlock appears to be reevaluating exactly how flattered he is.
~
John Watson didn't believe in love at first sight.
Attraction and lust, oh yes, but never actual love and he was absolutely right. However, while he'd never heard of love at first touch, he privately admitted that he was very much its victim. From the moment he'd handed his phone to Sherlock, John had belonged to him, Sherlock's conscience and cheerleading section.

Summary
It’s been over two years since Sherlock retired to Sussex with his bees. The problem is that John can’t or won’t leave Baker Street behind. On top of that, he can’t write, and he can’t forget the past. It takes a visit from Rosie to put it all into perspective: John better move fast. Some handsome young bloke is sniffing around Sherlock. Jealous John ensues.
Written in first person John POV. Explicit.
This is for Fandom Trumps Hate 2022 for the wonderful mindthegap221 on AO3 (aka thegirlfromthesouth on Tumblr) who wanted some jealous John sprinkled with angst.
Special thanks to my incredible beta, hotshoeagain for the comments, corrections and suggestions. A writer is nothing without a helpmate!

Summary
Sherlock takes a remarkably early retirement at 47, and convinces John that a change of pace would do them both good. They buy an old cottage on the South Downs, and exchange their nonstop life in Baker Street for quiet contemplation, bee studies, and book writing.
They might go completely insane, but sometimes it takes stepping outside of the life you're living to find the life you want.
Sherlock takes one last look out to the horizon, mouth downturned and brow furrowed, before seeming to shake himself and catching up to John with a few long-legged strides. John turns back toward the path cut into the cliffs, climbing steadily toward the rolling downs already green and lush in the weak April warmth.
They reach the top and Sherlock strikes toward the west, back to where their hired Land Rover sits a mile away in a public carpark. John falls into step beside him and takes a deep breath.
“I expected a case,” he starts. “A bit chilly for a walk, really, so. D’you mind telling me what we’re doing out here?”
Sherlock doesn’t even pause, simply tucks his head down against the wind and continues walking.“I’m retiring,” he says simply.

(Inspired by the song-prompt challenge on the Johnlock fanfic writers facebook group.

Summary
"It was simply my conjecture of what a future world might look like and how you and I might fit inside it. From a drop of water a logician should be able to infer the possibility of an Atlantic or a Niagara."
Sherlock is certain that James Moriarty is dead and he already has a theory for the person behind his apparent return. Considering Sherlock was overdosing at the time, it's only to be expected that he overlooked a few details in coming to his conclusions.
John meanwhile has moved back in with Mary after reconciling with her at Christmas, but finds himself agonising over why Sherlock would have thrown away everything he cares about to keep her safe. Could Sherlock be in love?
A reimagining of Series 4 picking up from the end of The Abominable Bride.

Summary
To Sherlock’s dismay, John’s return to Baker Street with Rosie is only temporary. Sherlock’s daily visits to Regent Park with John and Rosie illuminate his lost childhood memories and missed opportunities. But with each trip to the park, Sherlock also feels a growing sense of hope. That is until the past horrors return unexpectedly in a cryptic note folded in the shape of a heart. To decipher the message, Sherlock must uncover the nature of the hearts around him, including his own.
Post S4. First person Sherlock POV. Case fic.
Written for Fandom Trumps Hate (which needs our support now more than ever before) and for the talented bluebellofbakerstreet, who requested some BAMF John busting in and saving the day along with fluff, because, um, BAMFs are softies at heart (and that's exactly what this story is about).
Thank you so much to hotshoeagain for the incredible beta, advice and suggestions. You are a star.
