    Summary

    Thanks to Sherlock's inability to resist satisfying his curiosity, he's been turned into a small child of about seven (or five, depending on who you're asking) years old. Rather than let Sherlock be taken to a laboratory, John volunteers to look after him. After all, he's had to look after a man-child, how hard can a child-child be?

    Poor John. He has no idea.

    [Features paternal!Lestrade in small doses and eventual Johnlock after Sherlock grows up again]

    Summary

    “They do say an Englishman’s home is her castle,” she remarked finally, quiet and calm, then let the words settle in the empty air and glanced tentatively upwards, as if ascertaining that nothing had changed; that the world was still standing in the wake of her saying that aloud.

    1889. Paradoxically, the rules of society protect Sherlock Holmes. As long as her secret is unthinkable, it is undetectable—until she meets the sharp, scandalous and startlingly free Irene Adler, who thinks of everything. A retelling of A Scandal in Bohemia, complete with a thousand disguises, lies and masks, a secret buried in the artistic world of late nineteenth century Paris and revenge against royalty.

    Summary

    Also cross-posted from Sacrilege!, where it has been for years. This is a sequel to "Absurdly Simple" but it can also be read as a stand-alone story. It is exactly the same except for the fact that I have more clearly marked the changes in narration, which became even more confusing once the chapter divisions disappeared.

    Irene Adler is back in London and has returned to the stage, starring in Oscar Wilde's play An Ideal Husband. Violet Hunter ("Copper Beeches") is in London, working as a governess for an aristocratic and dysfunctional family. Holmes, Watson, and Violet are all in the audience on opening night; and they are soon all embroiled in an intrigue involving Irene Adler, Godfrey Norton, Violet's employers, and a diamond brooch in the shape of a snake. Watson and Violet Hunter take turns narrating a story chock full of double-crossing, cross-dressing, and Oscar Wilde.

    Summary

    Edna was anything but the conventional woman. Mycroft saw that and took advantage of such an opportunity to make her one of his subordinates. Before Anthea, Mycroft had a Personal Assistant who did so much more than just his legwork. At least Mycroft had made the promise never to put Anthea in harms way.

    Summary

    Retelling of A Scandal in Bohemia, in which Sherlock meets his match and John laughs and laughs.

    If John had known they were in for celebrities today, he’d have made more of an effort to, well, put on trousers, for one thing.

    Summary

    Irene Adler is back, seemingly from the dead. She requests Sherlock's assistance in a case. The story follows Sherlock, John ad Victor on the case, but not just any case. It is one which makes Sherlock choose between his work and John. Non compliant with Season 2, episodes 2 and 3. Canon characters make appearances. Assumed John/Sherlock. One sided Victor/Sherlock.

    Summary

    And there never was an apple, in Adam's opinion, that wasn't worth the trouble you got into for eating it.
    (Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, Good Omens)

    The Woman is born many times, from many different wombs, in many different shapes.

    Summary

    John Watson has seen terrible things and come back physically and mentally whole. Changed, but whole, and positive that if Afghanistan couldn't break him than England sure as hell won’t. Then came Gwen Norton, the beautiful, fierce white wolf with eyes like fire, and the rest of Irene Adler’s pack. Then came the hounds of the Baskervilles.

    Summary

    A modern-day re-imagining of A Scandal in Bohemia with a few alterations, deeper character explorations, and the inclusion of that guy that Irene Adler married at the end of the story whom everyone seems to forget. You know, Godfrey Norton? Top barrister, supportive lover, and overall dark, handsome, and dashing gentleman?

    In which Irene causes trouble (or may be in trouble), Sherlock doubts himself and is reviled by emotions, Godfrey is the unknowing cause of this whole mess, Mycroft is Mycroft, and John knows that, in the end, it's all fine.

    Definitely an AU from s2e01 of Sherlock.
