Summary
Danger was a green pool in an inner courtyard, the wet slide of skin against skin, the risk of being caught. Danger was a needle under the floorboards, opium in the toe of a slipper, the subterfuge of his habit. Danger was a shabby cabbie, even odds, an aneurysm.

Summary
‘You—,’ John began, tapping Sherlock’s chest with his index finger, ‘—should have told me what you were doing. At the very least.’ He left his hand there for an instant, between her breasts, before pulling it back suddenly as if he had touched something hot and unknown.
‘Yes--yes,’ Sherlock said, stumbling over the simplest of answers before she curled her hand around John’s and pulled his hand close to her chest.
For professorfangirl's prompt, 'Satisfaction without ejaculation.'

Summary
‘Valentine,’ he whispered, his mouth now close to her ears. She was warm, too warm. She had not known it would be like this, the hurry of the moment, the cruelty of wanting him closer…And if her mother should stir!
But it was her turn now. She would not falter. She spoke:
‘You said this was untidy. You said we were not the type to be—private.’
He stopped kissing her neck and laid his face on her breast. He said:
‘A decent fellow doesn’t—’ But she had surrendered to him already.
Missing scene from the ending of Some Do Not... (book, not TV). What if Christopher and Valentine were the kind who did?

Summary
A series of loosely related fics that have to do with psychopathology, Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, and their respective psychiatric diagnoses (or lack thereof).
Psychiatric categories are all just different ways of cutting the pie that is human experience; it is rare that any individual fits into one category perfectly. Overlapping disorders, unusual clusters of symptoms, and lifelong variation in psychopathology is the norm. No one is reducible to a diagnosis, and it is offensive to refer to people by their diagnoses (as John did, as Anderson did), because we are all more human than otherwise (as the psychoanalyst Harry Stack Sullivan was wont to say). We are not the sum of our symptoms, and our diagnoses should not define us. But still, one thing I enjoy about the Sherlock series is their willingness to portray characters who are very broken, whose lives are basically a mess. And yet Sherlock and John are each able, through their friendship, to grow and to heal. That is what makes this, in part, such a marvelous human drama.

Summary
In which Sherlock Holmes finds out what it's like to truly want something, John Watson isn't too bad at deductions, and everything gets a bit bright for a minute. Rated for language, sexual themes/discussion of sex, and a bit of violence. Complete work.
"Sherlock Holmes isn’t sure about John Watson right away. That in and of itself is unusual, as he typically forms instantaneous, and negative, opinions about everyone he meets. The truth is Sherlock is so engaged in his work when Stamford brings John to meet that him that he fails to register his presence almost entirely until John offers him the use of his phone."
