Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Warnings/Spoilers: None

FIC: Taking Dictation (Sherlock/John)

Title: Taking Dictation
Pairing/Characters: John/Sherlock
Rating: NC-17
Warnings/Spoilers: None
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Summary: Sherlock is tired of this nonsense on John's blog. From now on, it's the facts and only the facts, as dictated by the world's only consulting detective.
Word Count: 2000

And then all this claptrap about when I confronted the murderer, all this about my 'piercing gaze' and my 'voice of command,' it's ludicrous. )

FIC: Erotic Readings from the Journal of Organic Chemistry

Title: Erotic Readings from the Journal of Organic Chemistry
Pairing/Characters: John/Sherlock
Rating: NC-17
Warnings/Spoilers: Consensual light D/S
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Summary: Sherlock wants John to read from the Journal of Organic Chemistry to him--with the stipulation that he will get more aroused as the reading progress. There is a decent chance this is the sexiest story featuring enaminones and benzimidazoles you will read this month.
Word Count: 2600

Perhaps I find it intoxicating to think that I have the power to--simply by fiat--turn something that is not intrinsically erotic into an erotic experience. Humor me, John. )

Summary: If John indulges in some fanciful thoughts about flowers now and then, there's no need for Sherlock to know.
Word Count: 221

When he was a boy, John Watson read a fairy tale in which flowers bloomed wherever a princess walked, springing in her footsteps, a carpet of petals and leaves. )

Title: Pas de Deux
Pairing/Characters: John/Sherlock, Sherlock's parents
Rating: PG-13
Warnings/Spoilers: None
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Summary: John comes home to find Sherlock ignoring the two clients sitting on the couch, and soon finds himself dealing with a plethora of Holmeses.
Word Count: 4800

A man and woman in formal evening dress sat on the couch, their posture ramrod-straight. The woman's hands were folded tidily in her lap, while the man's long fingers were drumming slightly on the arm of the couch. )

FIC: Six Impossible Things Before Breakfast (Sherlock/John, NC-17)

Title: Six Impossible Things Before Breakfast
Pairing/Characters: John/Sherlock
Rating: NC-17
Warnings/Spoilers: Mind-control drugs and the resulting consent issues.
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Summary: A new drug that links sexual arousal to obedience? Sherlock is intrigued, but there are no handy test subjects around. Oh, wait...
Word Count: 6000

Cutting through all the technical language, it appears that a person dosed with this drug would find it nearly impossible to disobey direct commands, and would in fact find obeying such commands highly arousing. It creates a positive feedback loop: the more the subjects obey, the more pleasure they experience, the more they want to obey. )

Summary: John has the same dream again: the cave, the music, the lost soul.
Word Count: 221

There is music somewhere, a sweetly keening, desperate lament that calls him onward. The darkness is total, and yet he can see, walking in front of him-- )

FIC: The Adventure of the Delirious Detective

Title: The Adventure of the Delirious Detective
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Pairing/Characters: John/Sherlock, Mrs. Hudson, Greg Lestrade
Warnings/Spoilers: None
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 6200
Summary: Sherlock is back in 221B, but John isn't yet--until he receives a frantic phone call from Mrs. Hudson begging for his help.
Note: A BBC Sherlocked version of the ACD story "The Adventure of the Dying Detective."

The door was unlocked; it swung open to reveal the familiar chaos of papers, beakers, and random mystifying paraphernalia. There was a scattering of bones across the table, a map of Southeast Asia stuck with pins in various places on the wall. John frowned as he stepped inside for the first time in over a year, as the familiar sights and scents enveloped him.  )

FIC: Across the Threshold (BBC Sherlock)

Title: Across the Threshold
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Pairing/Characters: John/Sherlock, Mrs. Hudson
Warnings/Spoilers: None
Rating: R
Word Count: 1800
Summary: In which weddings are rehearsed, quarrels are had, making-up is done, and Sherlock gets the giggles at inappropriate times.
Note: For a prompt on the Sherlock Kink Meme asking for John carrying Sherlock across the threshold in rehearsal of their wedding night, followed by giddy, fluffy sex.

Sherlock curled his long legs up and rocked back and forth as if laughter had incapacitated him entirely; John could feel his abdomen shaking and was unable to resist pushing his shirt up and kissing the place where the sharp bones of his ribcage fell away into vulnerable trembling flesh. He was laughing too, he couldn't seem to help himself, a long bubble of incredulous joy that they were both here and alive and life was full of adventures and annoyances and delight. )

Word Count: 1700
Summary: Sherlock has deduced that John is going to propose to him, and he's ready to accept. If only John would actually get around to it...
Note: For a prompt on the Sherlock Kink Meme.

John was going to propose to him, he was certain of that. The small cut on the back of his hand, the smudge of mustard on his collar three days ago, the absence of jam at breakfast yesterday: it all pointed unerringly toward a marriage proposal. )

Note: Written for the Sherlock Kink Meme prompt asking for a BDSM relationship with Sherlock as the Dom with lots of slow trust-building and aftercare.

John felt himself going limp in his bonds, trusting Sherlock's sure hands, and that rush of trust was the most blissful narcotic he had ever imagined. )

Warnings/Spoilers: None
Rating: PG
Word Count: 3700
Summary: Experimental therapy has robbed John Watson of his memories of Sherlock Holmes. When he starts receiving mysterious emails and then is sort-of kidnapped by a stranger, John has a mystery to unravel.
Notes: A continuation of Normal, Sane, and Not All Right, but stands on its own, I believe.

John listened because there wasn't much else to do when a madman in a moving cab insisted on telling you about coal-tar derivatives, about the rainforests of Iran and the mountains of Tibet. )
