Summary
Or, a year in the life of Dean Winchester
Dean’s bi: sexual and polar. He’s got a string of hospitalizations under his belt. He’s a felon. He’s got a secret. And he just might have a crush on the wry, socially awkward, and devastatingly handsome artist who lives in the apartment below his. But Dean doesn’t have friends, and he certainly doesn’t have relationships. He has what his therapist Pam calls “impulsive, reckless sexual interactions.” His attempts at meaningful connection have resulted in ruined friendships, broken hearts, restraining orders, and lifechanging ramifications. Dean’s too focused on holding down a job and relearning how to live by himself after years of being babied by his little brother to worry about romance, right? Right.

Summary
“Shut up and listen,” Bobby says. “I ain’t calling about some monster, I’m calling about Castiel.”
Dean freezes in place. “He’s alive?”
“More’n that, Dean. He’s human.”
On instinct, every atom in Dean’s body is on high alert. He starts moving, fingers already reaching for the keys he hangs up on a loose nail next to the door. “Where is he?”

Indefinite Lines by ArwaMachine

Summary
When two lines, inclined towards each other, are extended indefinitely, it is inevitable that they meet. Upon meeting, the lines become something new. Together. Perhaps it’s been like that from the beginning for Sherlock and John—their lives weaving together, inclined towards one another, moving closer and closer to something greater than themselves.
But that’s all a bit romantic, isn’t it?
On another topic, Sherlock and John find themselves faced with a series of seemingly disparate cases that are growing increasingly connected, increasingly personal. They must unravel the mystery laid before them by a particularly ruthless set of criminals before the danger is upon them, or else run the risk of being cleaved apart forever, lines scattered to the wind.

Summary
There's a wolf amongst the sheep at Wisteria Lutheran Church. Sherlock and John must go undercover—as two men in love—to find out who has been mercilessly executing the church's queer community. As with everything else involving John Watson, it's not nearly as straightforward as Sherlock had hoped it would be.
✤
It feels true and real and absolute, and all Sherlock can do is swallow down everything that’s rising up within him and remain still and quiet, and close his stupid bloody eyes—and try to enjoy it while it lasts.

Summary
Few soulmates are separated at birth by too much time – but when the distance becomes greater than one year all bets are off, with five years’ difference being equally as unusual as fifty.
Yet the one rule that has never been broken is that the soulmates’ lifespans always overlap.
So it came as something of a shock to the young boy in an orphanage in Brooklyn, New York, when his soul mark came in at the age of twelve and told him that his soulmate had been dead for almost sixty years.

Summary
This fic is my response to the question,"What would Mycroft Holmes do to rescue Greg Lestrade from the very determined arms of Death?"
The answer's obvious, isn't it? He'd do anything. Anything at all.
Hence, this is a time-loop fic in which Mycroft is jet-lagged, Eurus is creepy, Greg is quite wonderful until he dies (repeatedly, but also temporarily), Anthea is confused but supportive, the Prime Minister is kind, Sherlock and John are helpful (sort of), it rains an awful lot, Mycroft’s coat is very clean, and tomorrow is a new day.
Until it isn’t.

Summary
An alternate first meeting that explores the parallels of those demons that drive both John and Sherlock. Their paths will cross of course, in an unusual way, when one reaches out to the other. While the official request was unidirectional, the help, the healing, well, the reaching goes both ways.

Summary
Sometimes Sherlock forgets that he is human, that he needs food and water and rest.
John is there — always, always there — to remind him.
[OR: John picks Sherlock back up during a nonverbal episode, and gets a bit more than he bargained for.]
