    Summary

    John has been away for Sherlock's entire career and suddenly returns to London unexpectedly from Afghanistan. Injured and tired and in pain, all he wants is to surprise Sherlock and kiss his husband. His search to find and surprise his wayward partner takes him across London and meets him up with those in Sherlock's world he has only heard about until now.

    A quickly written story that was meant to be my version of "Everyone Meet Sherlock's Secret Husband - Ha Ha In Your face" - but I got this instead.

    Summary

    In this alternate version of their first meeting and the case that followed, John Watson is more than a conductor of light, and Sherlock Holmes is more than impressed.

    Summary

    "You need to talk about it," Autumn whispered.

    "About what?" Sherlock asked.

    "About letting yourself feel."

    "I can't!"
     
    "Why not?"

    "Because it hurts too much!"

    Bam! There was an explosion. Debris went everywhere and a car horn could be heard echoing in the distance

    Summary

Several students with no relationship to each other are given dangerously high doses of Veritaserum (Truth Potion) and nearly die while spilling their secrets before the whole school. It's up to Sherlock and his friends, Molly Hooper and John Watson, to figure out who's behind it...and why.

    Summary

    Oh yes. He hasn't gotten what he originally wanted, an informant, no. But there is potential for so much more. Captain John H. Watson could prove to be very useful indeed. He is now an asset to be obtained. And Mycroft is never denied.

     

    A prologue, of sorts.

    Summary

    An account of what really happened that night at Angelo's.

    It's possible maybe the biographers got it wrong.

    A rather ridiculous (and hopefully humorous) re-imagining of one of fandom's favorite scenes. Please don't hate me.

     

    *Update* - I didn't actually update anything in this story other than adding it as a gift to someone I didn't realize was even on AO3, but who gave me part of the prompt. Sorry, guys!

    Summary

    John is, frankly, rather tired of being dragged along with Harry and her friends. It always ends badly for him. But ghost hunting? He can just picture it: dark rooms, locked doors, disappointment – it’s a disaster waiting to happen.

    Or is it?

    Summary

    Sherlock can't stand the thought of John Watson fading out of his life, so how can he make him stay? Can he even force him? It probably wouldn't be a good idea... Maybe John will just want to stay with him. How do they stay together?

    Summary

    Objectively speaking, John Hamish Watson, M.D., aged 35, had no reasons to feel unhappy. He wasn't a limping soldier invalided from Afghanistan; he was an accomplished and wealthy surgeon, working in a prestigious clinic right in the centre of London. And yet he couldn't help but feel utterly and completely bored. Will a chance encounter with a strange man in a dark coat change his life? Obviously.

    The alternate version of John's and Sherlock's first meeting.

    Summary

    When Sherlock Holmes and John Watson first meet in the lab at Bart's, it isn't actually for the first time. But why does only one of them know this - and should the other one keep the secret, or will revealing the truth ruin their friendship forever?

    A story of John being not Sherlock's date, of Sherlock being around way too much drugs, and a Destiny that always has to have the last word.

    Summary

    He glances around, and then cautiously turns down an alley. There's a spot here, in the angle formed by two walls: he might be able to snatch a few hours' sleep.

    Tomorrow – today now – is the thirtieth. Saturday. He's got enough change in his pockets for two cups of tea – one Saturday, one Sunday. Load them with sugar, for the calories, and that's breakfast. Lunch … walk, same as today. Dinner, a cup of hot water with a sachet or two of sauce, call it tomato soup. Just two more days, then it will be the first of the month and his pension will be in. Just two more days. Not that long.

    Summary

    Sherlock is sober, but his life is still spiraling down hill. Despite this, he has resisted the notion of ever getting a mate. The very idea of having a human balancing his life is abhorrent. As Mycroft, a case, and a new flatmate all vie for his attention, he misses the most important clue of his life: that his mate has found him.
