Sherlock/Interview with the Vampire fusion-- London, 1887
Sherlock Holmes is Gentleman Death in silk and lace-- a cold, cynical vampire ever-desperate for something to break the tedium of eternity. He finds it in Dr. John Watson, a depressed war-hero committing slow suicide through drink and the dangers of London's gambling dens.
Their strange friendship is fraught with difficulty from the onset-- but their lives truly take a turn for the macabre when they find themselves at the center of a gruesome (and infamous) murder spree.
..............
“But really Sherlock—You just would have to pick the one with the goddamned hero complex.”

Summary
'Anamnesis' is a Steampunk novel-in-progress about a Victorian-esque clockwork kingdom set in a fancifully re-imagined American West. Its inhabitants are clever and resourceful, and have compensated for the lack of natural resources by using clockwork mechanisms. This solution is not without a price, however; to become a citizen of Clarior, one most donate a part of oneself - literally. The lucky lose bones or blood; the unlucky, entire organs. Whatever the City takes, it replaces with a clockwork mechanism powered directly by the clock tower at the heart of the kingdom. It is a method of self-preservation. Those bound to the clock require it to survive, and thus will do anything to protect it. They are literally part of the City, and the City is literally a part of them.
A recent coup attempt has left General Tren Tardor quite literally broken, more machine now than man, and has scattered his precious memories all over the City. Something went wrong the day the king was overthrown; something which has resulted in the disruption of the City’s time. The clock is winding down, and only Tren knows how to fix it - if he could only remember …

*Just putting a little note in here to let you know that I will be making some corrections to this fic soon (probably in June). The content of the story will not be changed AT ALL, but I am making efforts to have the grammatical problems corrected. I have an experienced proof-reader working on it right now. Just thought I'd mention it in case any one wanted to wait for the corrected version.*
If you enjoy this story there is now a short a follow up fic posted called 'A Night at Hyde Place.'

Summary
Miss Sherlock Holmes objects most strenuously to the very idea of finding a husband. Instead of accepting that she must, she sets out to ensure she will never have to.
John Watson, invalided home and recovering from a nasty bout of enteric fever, never thought to find anyone interested in him ever again, let alone someone like Sherlock.
Victorian Era with a rule 63 Sherlock Holmes.

However, the Governor of Newgate prison warns Castiel that no good can come from his association with Dean.
