Summary
She lays the sage bundle down in one of his seashells, avoiding the label. How he loved cataloging natural items. That sharp mind of his so naturally tended to the sciences, and she’d taken great joy in encouraging him all his life. All the first thirteen years of it. The last year has been entirely different.
His hand lies just outside the white comforter. When she touches it, the chill of his skin sends a shiver down her spine. His lips move, his voice as soft as dead, dry leaves.
“What’s that, love?” she says.
“In the trees,” he says, his eyes still closed. “Is it John there in the trees? I think he’s waiting for me.”
Viola turns her gaze out the window and to the closest tree, a resplendent cherry in the throes of autumn. In the branches there, for just a second, she thinks she sees it: a black bird, feathers gleaming in the sun.

Summary
Salt and air and sand surrounded their little party of three. Crashing waves, gull cries, and the exhilarated exclamations of an excited three-year-old served as the soundtrack to a day filled with blue skies and bright sunshine.

Summary
They’re sure of each other, now. They’re settled. And as far as Sherlock is concerned, settled isn’t the least bit boring or stifling or constraining.
Settled is marvellous. Settled is freeing.
Settled means sometimes you make romantic love by candlelight, murmuring hushed words of endless devotion solely because you want to, because the moment feels right and good.
And sometimes, settled means you fuck on the sofa on a Saturday afternoon, straightforward and uncomplicated, no deep desperate romance necessary, just because fucking is fun.

Summary
Red wine always makes him tipsier than usual and he finds himself saying, the words slurring a bit. “You know, I’ve got to ask. Do you always shoot cabbies for people you barely you know?”
John meets his gaze over the rim of his glass, and there’s something there that Sherlock can’t pin down. “Not for everyone,” he says, meaningfully, pointedly, his smile all teeth.Sherlock feels faint. He’s flirting. Is he? Sherlock has to backpedal, get out of the hole he’s dug himself into.
“You should come home with me tonight,” Oh god no, that’s the exact opposite of what he should be doing.
John’s eyes widen and he blinks at him. “Er-“
“I mean, 221B’s closer, it’s late,” he scrambles for words. “And you’ll be staying there anyway. I mean- well, I’m assuming. Ms Hudson’s already put up the bed-“ Christ, he’s not being clever and sexy at all, he’s blabbering like an idiot-

Summary
When Sherlock Holmes meets John Watson as a child in 1949, he has no idea what he's in for. Growing up in the age of drive-in movies, leather jackets, and diners and soda shops on every corner sounds pretty picturesque, but the 1950s present plenty of challenges as well, and falling in love with your best friend? Well, that's never easy.

Summary
“The scientific method is a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry is commonly based on empirical or measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning.” (Wiki)
Their secondary genders have never played a part in Sherlock and John's friendship. At least, not until a poorly considered experiment of Sherlock's triggers an unexpected heat that changes everything.

Summary
“Sherlock,” John murmurs, struggling to keep his voice level. Sherlock moves his lips down John’s chin, licks at the lobe of his ear before burying his face in the crook of John’s neck. “Oh, fuck, Sherlock, listen-“ Sherlock makes a vaguely interested noise, drags the length of his clothed erection over John’s.
“We can’t, not here. Someone will see-“ his voice hitches as Sherlock’s cold fingers slip under his shirt, rest over his abdomen. “Your parents, I don’t know.”
We shouldn’t be doing this anywhere, John thinks, but it’s kind of difficult to be logical when he has a lapful of Sherlock, with his slender legs on either side of his waist, his hands on his skin and his breath in his ear.
Sherlock hums, not taking him seriously at all. “Not if you’re quiet."
John may not be an expert, but he's pretty sure that shagging your ex is a bloody awful idea.
(Shame the sex is so good, though.)

Summary
The rules, Sherlock knows, are as follows: if he annoys John enough, John will punish him by fucking the daylights out of him, and it's glorious.
What he hasn't counted on is John changing the rules.
