    Summary

    Schoolboy Greg is evacuated from London during Operation Pied Piper and goes to live in the country with the Holmes family who have a son very nearly Greg's age, but completely unlike him in every other way imaginable. It's a hard time for Britain but maybe one small portion of the countryside can host the birth of a beautiful friendship. Or, at least, a tolerably pleasant association that can be endured with a proper stiff upper lip...

    Summary

    They stood face to face in the middle of a clearing. The dim light of the moon barely allowed Sherlock to see the glassy terror in John’s eyes and the sweat that glistened off his forehead. His nose was bleeding again, blood dripping in a slow stream from his right nostril.

    They were both gasping for air, John’s eyes locked on Sherlock’s. There was no recognition there, just wild animal fear.

    Time stood still for an eternal few seconds, and Sherlock took a shaky breath. “John—”

    Spell broken, John spun and bolted back into the woods.

    Still heaving for air, Sherlock took off after him.

    Summary

    John Watson had worked hard to be accepted at Starfleet Academy. As an Augment, a descendant of the super soldiers who seized power on Earth during the Eugenics wars, he's had to work twice as hard. Play twice as hard too, because screw them. The only path to ship duty for an Omega is extra credits like T.A.ing a Professor's class. The mysterious Commander Holmes, an Augment like himself, would do nicely. Very nicely.

    Sherlock Holmes had gone to considerable effort to put his past - and his family - behind him. His career in Starfleet hadn't gone exactly as envisioned. Bounced from research facility to facility, his analysis on how to defeat the Borg ignored, now he's finally washed up teaching at the Academy. His T.A. is fascinating. Of course, he's entirely above all that alpha biological nonsense.

    Starfleet never really intended to assemble a crew with a half trained doctor and an alpha Augment with authority issues. But they also didn't really intend for the Borg to make it quite as far as they did.

    And so...These are the Voyages of the USS Bakerstreet. Her five year mission (make that ten (okay fine twelve year mission + time travel)), to seek out new life and new civilizations. To go boldly.

    Summary

    Sherlock Holmes’ new fellow lodger is ordinary enough. There ought to be no reason for Holmes to adjust his habits in any way for him. Certainly he shouldn’t require the other man’s presence merely in order to work.

    Summary

    In a London we almost recognise, Sherlock Holmes is a stroppy, solitary genius shirking his civic and moral duty to care for the unfortunate and dispossessed of New Britain. So what is it that possesses him to bring such a wretched, nameless creature with a dark, unspeakable past to Baker Street? Sherlock's life is about to be turned on its head, and all the world with it.

    Summary

    This is a story about John and Sherlock's life with Rosie and the other people in their lives that they love. Each chapter is an anecdote about a day of significance in their life. Some are joyous, some are sexy, some are tragic, and some are very sad. But they all emphasize that life is indeed a box of chocolates.

    All of the specified dates signify something important that happened to me. All the rest are approximations of instances of the same significance in which the dates escape me.

    I'm American. This work is not Brit-picked or Beta'd. All mistakes are mine. I also did my best with medical accuracy and anything to do with London and her locales. If anything is obviously wrong and/or distracting, let me know and I'll have a look and fix it! I hope you enjoy all of these little stories! If you do, please click kudos. If you really liked them, please tell me in the comments!

    Summary

    So the hearse ran out of gas, a passenger person grabbed a map
    And the driver inside it contrived a new route to save the past
    And checked his watch and grabbed a cab, a beautifully plain taxi cab
    The cab had a cleared out back and two men started to unpack
    ~ Taxi Cab, Twenty One Pilots

    Watson felt as if the air had been sucked from his lungs. Never before had his friend’s examination of a corpse been so cursory nor his deductions so abrupt. His sharp gaze had seemingly raked the girl’s prone form from head to toe in a matter of seconds, pausing only for a moment on her right hand. And never before had Holmes taken leave of a scene so quickly. What had Watson missed?

    Summary

    Sherlock takes what doesn't belong to him and John Watson administers the necessary disciplinary actions to correct his friend. That's what happens when you take your partner's dog tags and do unnatural things to them. Tongue in cheek PWP for the most part, but does have a bit of story tied in. First person POV John. Set after S2.
