    Summary

    Christmas time. 'Tis the season to settle down with a drink, some food and a present or two, and to enjoy the quiet relaxation of the holiday. Instead, there's a case that drags them all over, missing presents, disappointed kids, angry parents, and a freak snowfall.

    On top of that John has to deal with Sherlock, who is being even more of a prat than usual.

    He really shouldn't have expected anything different.

    a merry happy boxing day to all: literally every single december since this fic was published I have reread it. there's literally a meme on my desktop from a solid 6 years ago when I almost forgot to read it my freshman year of college. the nap-a-lodeons shall live with me forever

    and so I say again, for the twelfth year in a row, we have much to hope from the flowers

    Bookmarker's Notes

    one of those fics that immediately in your mind becomes exactly what happened, and so is less of a fanfiction and more of something they just forgot to mention onscreen. I've seen this movie once btw and I believe it

    Summary

    It rankles a bit that "deep background" is all Carl ever gets from Bob, because they’re partners. They share a byline; it feels unfair that Bob won’t share the second-biggest secret between them. Bob doesn’t have to know that Carl is holding tight to something even bigger.

     

    Late at night in the Post offices after the release of the Segretti article, more than a couple secrets come out.

    in my heart it's real. when I tell you I can hear "Well I didn't know he was Mark Felt at the time" know that I am saying this as a person who is at best picturing the fuzzy colors of the apple in my mind's eye. it is real and true. that's how I know

    Summary

    House and Death play Operation for Wilson's life.

    *

    “This is the part where you ask me if I'm fucking him, you know.” He's grateful for the last defense of being nasty, a familiar trench to crawl into. “Maybe I’m not even asking out of the goodness of my heart. This could just be… sex. Selfishness. Aren’t you supposed to ask if it’s the right kind of love?”
    Death takes a long look at him.
    YOU ARE CHALLENGING ON HIS BEHALF. ‘DON'T GO’ IS THE ONLY KIND OF LOVE THERE IS.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    we, as a people, have never been so back. reads like one of those classic lj fics (< my highest possible compliment btw) that would later give rise to Crack Treated Seriously but at the time was just some weird premise you read and then holy shit it's actually good, and then it lives in your mind as "that one fic where house and discworld death play operation"

    Bookmarker's Notes

    unthinkable that this is not in my bookmarks already when I have a beloved hyper specific meme about it on my desktop and have for the last 6 years. which was already 6 years since I first read it and lost my entire goddamn time. did you know that the song "once more to see you" by mitski reminds me of this fic? from the first time I heard it. bc this fic had already made a home in me by the time I heard it, to the point where it is all I will ever think of at the line "Then I wouldn't have to scream your name / Atop of every roof in the city of my heart" twofish by grindylowe you will always be famous. I literally have swaths of this memorized.
