Author's Note: For these drabbles I gave myself 17 words that start with the letter S. Then I wrote drabbles with exactly 17 words. I think the result is interesting. Additionally, if you think any of these should be expanded let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Disclaimer: While I would very much like to own these characters I do not. I do, however, own the DVDs if that counts for anything.

1. Scarf

"Urgh!" was John's strangled cry; right before he grabbed Sherlock by his scarf ends and kissed him.

2. Skull

The skull wouldn't tell you they were love, but it would definitely grin knowingly from the mantle.

3. Soldier

Fact: John looked good in his uniform. Fact: Sherlock couldn't decide was it better on or off?

4. Spaghetti

On their first real date at Angelo's, John ordered spaghetti and asked Angelo specifically for a candle.

5. Scones

While Mrs. Hudson was not their housekeeper, Sherlock thought she made some damn good lemon raspberry scones.

6. Solitaire

In the army, John played solitaire when he was bored. Now his worn, red cards collect dust.

7. Snow Globe

When Sherlock squeezed his hand John thought he'd shake the snow globe again to repeat the moment.

8. Snog

Hiding in the alleys by the crime scene snogging Sherlock made John feel like a teenager again.

9. Smut

"John, where does one buy corn smut?"

"A grocery. Why?"

"I need to prove a man's guilt."

10. Singing

Once for a case Sherlock posed as a singing telegraph. Turns out he has a lovely voice.

11. Sighing

John was a champion sigher and was quite a useful skill for dealing with criminals and Sherlock.

12. Shag (A.N. Bonus points to those who know what this is in reference to.)

One time Sherlock won a pipe smoking contest that saved John. The prize: a damn good shag.

13. Sherlock

For the record Sherlock had always hated his name. At least until he heard John say it.

14. Sport

Sherlock's favorite sport was people watching, and while Sherlock people watched, John liked to just watch Sherlock.

15. Sociopath

Unlike Anderson, John did his research and found out that Sherlock probably was a high functioning sociopath.

Unlike Anderson, John did his research and found little evidence that Sherlock was a high functioning sociopath.

16. Stay

John knew he couldn't actually order Sherlock to stay behind, but that didn't mean he couldn't try.

17. Sweetheart

Sherlock despised pet names, but when John called him sweetheart he couldn't stop his heart from fluttering.
