Sherlock Recs
GEN FIC
they tell me their secrets (will you tell me yours too) by
Summary: In Afghanistan, the supplies tell him when they're running low, and the cars always, always tell him when strangers have touched them, and John gets known as having a knack (paranoia, his men call it, but he's never missed a single car bomb) for keeping his men safe.
(John Watson, stuff-whisperer. Another fascinating AU concept well-realised)
Five times Sherlock had his bail posted (And once the person who would've bailed him was in with him) by
Summary: See title.
(Sherlock gets in a lot of trouble over the years.)
Study of a Soldier by
Summary: A case from Mycroft sends Sherlock digging into John’s past and the secrets he’s keeping from the war.
Author Warnings: Descriptions of crimes in war. May cause triggers.
(This is a hard read emotionally in spots, and it's brilliant.)
Assumption makes an ass of you and I by
Summary: Sherlock told John not to eat from that place. He had no idea how right he was.
("Do these
'SQUINT' FIC*
It Feels Like Home When I'm With You Part One and Part Two by
Summary: John still gets nightmares about Afghanistan. That's the worst part of it all, he thinks -- he still has dreams about sand and drowning to death in his own blood. But they're more memory than nightmare.
(Absolutely fascinating AU, both in concept and execution.)
Frozen Part One, Part Two and Part Three by
Summary: Requested to help on a case involving a young, murdered maid in a wealthy household, Sherlock finds himself investigating in the midst of secrets, ghosts, an inconvenient illness, and John.
(An engaging case-fic which draws on several sources of inspiration)
*Squint = If you look at it one way, it's plain Gen, if you squint, you might see slash or pre-slash.
PRE-SLASH FIC
November Storms by
Summary: From the kinkmeme prompt: "It's ridiculous to sleep when the weather is this loud." An idea that somehow evolved into what it is now!
(Depending on your opinions on men kissing each other, this could be Squint. Three different storms, three reasons not to sleep.)
