    Oh yes! They get it together in the very best Sherlock and John way, and way earlier than cannon. It's silly and sublime. Lovely lovely!

    Summary

    ‘Mycroft’s right,’ he said at last. ‘If I can get deeper into the complex, I can end this now. Today. If I leave, it will just come back to haunt us.’

    ‘Yeah, us. Sherlock, please. We can fix this together once you’re back home.’

    That voice returned him to the rooftop of Bart’s. It hurt more than he would ever admit, jagged and raw. He still remembered it like yesterday. The desperation in John’s voice echoed down through his bones. John, the real John, had lost him that day. Now this figment looked at him with dawning realisation. He knew Sherlock would not turn his back on this chance.

    He could not return to John knowing this mess remained unfinished. He could not return to London and expect forgiveness if the ruse had no reason.

    Summary

    For cccahill18, based on their prompt for johnlockchallenges Valentine's Day Exchange: Mycroft asks for John’s help in rescuing Sherlock from his Serbian captors. Requested genres: AU, fluff, angst, hurt/comfort

    Sherlock couldn’t decide if it was the kindest or the cruelest trick his mind had ever played on him, to give him a blurry vision of John Watson standing there with haggard lines on his face, the beginnings of an absolutely disastrously scruffy beard, and a grubby knit cap shoved down over his ears. His mouth shaped around that name, the one he hadn’t allowed himself to utter aloud in two years, and it felt foreign as it scraped weakly past his lips.

    “John?”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    One bookmark for the whole compelling series! I'll reintroduce myself to kids now.

    ACD inspiration, BBC base. Off canon and true to character. J doesn't marry M, they get together right away, then take a bit to settle in. Perilous cases, internal (& sometimes external) angst. There are other ppl in here, but really only Sherlock & John are visible. Even the author's notes are interesting and fun. (Tho this is most definately not a "funny" fic.) Angsty, but it's earned and not gratuitous angst-porn. Well done! (And eminently re-readable!)
