    Summary

    Just because Sherlock stopped, doesn't mean the Work has to. London is John's city now and he will keep it together with stitching, string, his healing, the food off his table, and some times the clothes off his back. John Watson keeps going. He's good at that.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is the John that I've always hoped would be written. This is the most realistic post-Reichenbach fic I've ever read and I think everyone should read it. The author made me cry, made my heart pound, and in the end, this was an amazing fic without a truly perfect, neatly wrapped up happy ending.

    Also, I must mention that Sebastian Moran was very different from ACD canon or fandom lore. But he is perfect. I think Moriarty may have been made slightly too evil for my taste, but overall, this was amazing.

    Summary

    John Watson thinks Sherlock Holmes should admit that he, Watson, is more of an expert on sex than Sherlock is. But Sherlock refuses to concede the point. He comes up with an experiment plan that will resolve the issue. The results will determine who wins the prize. But sometimes even the best thought-out scientific study has unexpected consequences.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I'm lost for words here. Similar in lightbulb moments as "A cure for boredom", but done in a different way. I looked for smut and found smutty fluff that nearly brought tears to my eyes.

    Summary

    "Sherlock’s surprisingly strong, for all he’s so willowy. But John has a lower center of gravity, so the tussle hovers halfway to the bedroom door. John shakes his head, laughing. 'Dammit, Sherlock. Grow up.' (But he really doesn’t mean it. He doesn’t mean it at all.)"

    Begins with pranks and laughing and hilarity. Ends with some very nice fellatio and poetically described sodomy. (Because after all, the line between laughter and lust is thin indeed.) Also a meditation on the childish and the childlike, nurturance and maturity: "We care for each other. I feed you, you nourish me. We exchange fragilities. We trade strengths."

    Summary

    Almost but not quite PWP. A lot of nasty nasty sex—oh my laws yes—but also about knowledge and pleasure and power and love. “Sherlock will keep watching him. John will keep catching him watching. And when at last Sherlock fixes his gaze as if he’d make John come on to him by the sheer force of his hazel-eyed will, John will be absolutely, sweetly, lovingly impervious. The knowledge that they’ll fuck is the one thing he can hide behind his eyes with perfect impunity and dole out on a need-to-know basis. And Sherlock desperately needs to know.”

    After all, there's a reason the verb "to know" used to be a synonym for sex.

    Summary

    Sherlock solves one of the oldest problems in philosophy by dint of a little self-pleasuring. He's clever that way.
