Summary
Lord Sherlock Holmes is a wealthy aristocrat who lives almost like a hermit and indulges in opium-eating and sporadic crime solving. One evening, in the throes of a drug-caused hallucination, he stumbles upon Doctor John Watson. It’s love at first sight for the still-virgin Sherlock, but he’s convinced the other man could never feel the same.
When a renowned painter is killed, Sherlock convinces John to help him with the investigation and their friendship takes an unexpected turn.
This story was inspired in some measure by my previous work, A Dangerous Liaison, and by the fact that I wasn’t done with 1920s London.
I have taken my account of opium intoxication from Thomas de Quincey and his Confessions of an English Opium Eater.ETA 10th October: This work is now complete.

Summary
Sherlock Holmes - Potions Experimenter Extraordinaire - combines Amortentia with Veritaserum to help users not only find their true love, but to express that love. In hindsight, maybe he shouldn't have tested it on himself.
“Love potions can create the feeling in anyone who takes it. It creates lies. Veritaserum negates lies.”
“So you wanted to create a love potion that what? Makes you realize and face the one you love instead of letting you falsely love just anyone?”
Sherlock’s head tilts in innocent confusion, asking a question of his own, “What is the point of pretending to love someone that you don’t? When my potion wears off, the truth is still there: that I love you. It isn’t the potion making the feeling, it’s the potion making me face the feeling.”
John’s face flushes in embarrassment. So Sherlock does really love him. That’s…a good thing. Great, actually. But a bit of him twinges with sadness that it happened this way.
