    Summary

    The thought occurred to him, as so many great thoughts did, in the shower.
    It was quite strange. He had always assumed that such discoveries would come in the form of great revelations at pivotal moments in life, accompanied by appropriate background music and, perhaps, a well-choreographed song and dance if life was feeling fancy. Assumed that it would be part of a greater narrative which would inevitably lead to some sort of conclusion. A satisfying ending to a story arch.
    But there was no music, no song, no dancing, no greater narrative. Just a regular shower on a regular Monday as he got ready to open the bookshop for the day.
    Life wasn't a story, after all, and as the water poured down on him and the hot steam fogged up the mirror above the sink, he realised, with no warning or preamble, that he was, in fact, a he.
    Oh.
    It was a patient thought. Calm. It sat in his mind, quite still and almost unobtrusive, if it wasn't for its persistence, its alien shape and nature, its gentle pulsing like a beating heart. It was impossible to ignore. And the thing was, he didn't want to ignore it.
    I am a man.

    Summary

    Sherlock was enjoying his life as a sixth former. Until one day, the rugby captain bursts in on his violin practice.

    And it all goes pear-shaped from there.

    Summary

    “What’s going on?”

    “An apology. It’s all true.”

    It isn’t; true that is. He’s lying, and somehow this little lie causes a chasm to rip open in his chest. It doesn’t make much sense; it being the pain this little lie is causing him. He’s about to die, but his mind has latched itself onto the small lies he keeps spewing to John. He thinks for a moment that he’s displacing his anxieties. Being worried about the small lies is much easier than thinking about the big one.

    Summary

    Dream has been thrown into Pandora’s Vault, the unfinished, impenetrable prison that he helped design and build.
    Locked in the darkest, most secure cell, Dream is left completely alone. The server outside rejoiced, thinking they’d broken him, unable to see past a simple smiling mask that hid so much pain and suffering.
    Nobody knew the real reason he was there. Nobody cared enough to ask what he felt.
    It only takes so much. Only so much before someone reaches their breaking point.
    The entire SMP had striven together to destroy Dream, but they didn’t know that despite imprisoning him they’d never broken his will.
    They’d only broken his mind.

    ~~~
    AKA a canon-compliant Dream fanfic with all the hurt & angst you could possibly want, all in one place :)

    Summary

    John's tumblr blog is becoming pretty popular when Sherlock stumbles across a "#johnlock" comment on his own rarely-frequented website.

    He's not entirely impressed with John's explanation of "shipping," and he's definitely against the idea of his university flatmate starting a vlogging channel on YouTube.

    But he grudgingly goes along with it, because the viewer count is rising quickly by the day, and because he's Sherlock, and he doesn't mind the attention.

    It makes John happy too, but that kind of sentiment doesn't factor into Sherlock's actions whatsoever. Of course not.
