Greg Lestrade is in a rut: there's not much in his life that brings any joy these days. If this is a mid-life crisis, he'd rather skip it and retire. Maybe he needs a holiday. Maybe he should chuck it all in and go live on a boat. He knows something needs to change, but what?

When the unthinkable happens, John's world is turned upside down. But not all is as it seems, and when it comes down to it the most dangerous enemy is not a man at all, but the mind.

In the aftermath of the alien invasion of London, Coulson's team is set out to retrieve a man, a man that had picked up Thor's hammer. John Watson hadn't meant to get mixed up in the alien invasion only intending to repay a favor. He had only been surveying the damage done by the aliens when he had tripped on a hammer, he didn't know the significance of being able to pick it up.

Can you love someone you can never touch?

Mycroft has a secret- a problem that started in childhood and has grown and blossomed into something dangerous. How will Sherlock cope? how will he help his brother when he needs him the most? Will Mycroft be able to tell Sherlock before it kills him? Slow burn (ish, not super slow) Mystrade, caring brother Sherlock, and some doctor John thrown in.

In a London we almost recognise, Sherlock Holmes is a stroppy, solitary genius shirking his civic and moral duty to care for the unfortunate and dispossessed of New Britain. So what is it that possesses him to bring such a wretched, nameless creature with an unspeakable past to Baker Street? Sherlock's life is about to be turned on its head, and all the world with it. (Dystopia)

Sherlock loses all he holds dear, but no one knows it when he falls down the rabbit hole of despair. They can only watch in horror as he must dig himself from the depths of sorrow and back into the light.

Sherlock Holmes isn't a coldhearted freak or psychopath. This is 5 times Sherlock is there for someone, whether as a caring friend, tenant or colleague. That is why, when Sherlock gets drugged while out for drinks with the Yard and his protective soldier boyfriend, the bastard who did it is going to pay for laying a hand on everyone's favourite detective! READ WARNINGS

...Or five times they act like a couple, and one time they actually are.

A brief meeting between Hermione and Sherlock, as seen by our favorite sociopath. Just a bit of fun. Just added the third and final chapter of this little plot bunny... let me know what you think!

A prompt a day, means a story a day. Every day will stand alone. All emotions.

John, ever the soldier, has always kept his early years to himself. Given the nature of his relationship with Sherlock and the man's abilities, he supposed he never thought he needed to share.

After a case goes seriously awry, Sherlock is faced with the reality that his only friend might not make it through this one. This is a work-in-progress story filled with drama and angst.

Super strength on its own would take some getting used to – but now with an organization in the shadows on their trail, things are about to get tougher for the detective and his blogger with newfound powers that everyone seems to be after. *Sequel to Official Recruiter.

very tiny sherlolly scenes to put a smile on your face :D

Omegas are kept on suppressants at all times. John has his own formula because the side effects destroy the mind. No one knows because no one cares to find out. Omegaverse and alternate universe, obviously. My first foray into a new fandom, as usual without a beta or a britpicker. Also, there is the sex between John and Sherlock, because that's what these are for.

A collection of one shots taken in between the episodes, when boredom and mayhem strike. Experiments, Cluedo, and general amusement and the occasional hurt. I am mainly just writing this as a side project for my own boredom so it may not be updated regularly.

An incident at Scotland Yard sends Sherlock reeling. Fortunately, John is there. However, he's not the only one to witness it unfold.

REWRITE OF SEASON 4 John Watson has woken up from a coma only to find out that everything that happened in The Final Problem was part of a coma dream. Not only that, but Sherlock has child-proofed the flat and had been taking care of Rosie during the 2 month period John was unconscious. For years the two were willing to die for each other, but for both of them, it runs much deeper

Rosamund Mary Watson was very smart. Smart enough to wonder if her dad and his friend would ever become anything more.

A Fragile Ficlet: Yes, Sherlock, we're celebrating your birthday. Whether you like it or not.

Mary is somewhat enthralled with John Watson. She observes him struggling with some internal grief, and she desperately wants to help. But she can't, if she doesn't even know what caused it. Apparently the key to helping John lies in the answer to one simple question: Who's Sherlock? Post-Reichenbach.

A story of rebuilding, overt closeness, and wanting to end your life. Sherlocks' been gone for two years and now that he's back John can't look him in the eye and he has a sneaking suspicion that Sherlock can't look in his either. As they try to mend back their relationship to what it was something new may be added on.

How does a genius deal with being confused? Set after Sherringford I Love You scene. Rating will go up if the story continues.

Some fates are twined together, John Watson was always meant to meet the Holmes brothers. Separated from his unit, John stumbles upon a terrorists cell holding a hostage deep in the mountains. The man who saved him has always been a mystery, no matter what his resources he could never find out who it was. Mycroft never suspected to find him as his brother's new flatmate. No Slash

A series of one-shots, following Sherlock and Molly on their godparenting journey, beginning post-'The Six Thatchers' and going right up until Rosie reaches adulthood. Some fluff, some angst, some comedy and some very, very dubious godparenting... (I'd originally given this fic an M rating, but if you want to avoid anything vaguely M-like, just skip chapter 5!)

(Or 4 Times John's Tail Was a Problem & 1 Time It Wasn't) The second in my Tail series. A fun collection of John's merman-ness interfering with his life.

Sherlock visits Tony.

It was once Sherlock's job to save John Watson- but what happens when Sherlock is the one who needs saving? Can he let himself be sheltered from the storm of his own existence?

Set directly following the final episode of season four, this tells the continuing story of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. John and Rosie move into 221B, Sherlock and John are still coming to terms with everything that has happened and discover that they need each other more than ever.

Prompt fill: John overhears some Yarders saying that his new relationship with Sherlock is just an experiment. Much angst to follow. Johnlock.

A series of one-shots based on headcanons, starting with how Greg met and got to know Sherlock. Will be updated periodically, depending on time. I will write based from prompts and requests.

Johnlock AU based on the dialogue prompt, "How do I passive-aggressively say 'fuck you' in flower?"

Sherlock isn't surprise when he's held at gunpoint in his flat, what does surprise him is what the men are here for; John. Winglock AU, Abuse

Five times Sherlock and John behaved like children. No slash. Hopefully humorous. Friendship. Only platonic JL. Will be updated whenever I have the time and if the story gets a positive response. Ideas and opinions welcomed. Please read and review. Rated T just to be safe. Chapter 5 up. COMPLETE.

In a world where you experience the physical pain felt by your soulmate, John and Sherlock meet under similar circumstances but with starkly different outlooks. The pain they've suffered throughout the years has taken its toll. But pain is a synonym for love. And the two have plenty to give.

Sherlock gets sick, not 'he'll recover in a few days' sick, but hospitalised for a long time sick. His friends are all there to help him but he is Sherlock, he doesn't want or need their help. A continuation of a work written (and unfinished) by gemstone1234

John has never expected to find his soulmate, but he is eager to meet them when the chance presents itself. Only, he isn't prepared for the revelation that awaits him at the other end of his soul string. Johnlock.

There's a new neighbour living in the flat opposite theirs and she's a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. One that both Sherlock and John are hell bent on solving, even it if involves a little stalking.

In a world were people are divided into three groups; Dociles, Herculeans and Oddities, Sherlock has to learn to accept his nature and must try to find some one who will accept him too.

Sometimes, John and Sherlock accidentally fall into the magical world. First, Sherlock shrinks to the size of a Liliputian, then a client begs Sherlock for help in capturing a monster that has been terrorizing users of the tube, but it gets stranger still when they investigate a murder by broom...

A series of prompt-based one shots dealing with everything from spiders to teen!lock to milk to Beauty and the Beast to Sherlock getting his hair braided (Lestrade will never let him live it down). It ranges from parodies and crack!fics to angst and tradegy and will hopefully result in both tears and laughter in all those who read it. Any and all requests shall be written!

John is struggling, and while back in London for the first time in years, he runs into old friends that he really doesn't want to see. When Sherlock realises the depths that John has fallen, can he bring his best friend back up onto solid ground? Will John let him?

Molly can confirm that life is never boring in the flat of 221 B Baker street. (Post season 4). I wrote this after reading a bunch of Shounen action based anime.

It's been six months since John Watson's kidnapping and brutal treatment at the hands of Sherlock's enemies. It's been six weeks since the demise of the notorious killer the Slash Man. Now Sherlock and John must work together to defeat Moriarty once and for all, in the greatest fight of their lives.

Hermione has resolved her war is not over until she brings her parents home to England. Ron thinks a summer on the other side of the world is a perfect escape.

Can the bonds of love and family mend the pieces of their lives torn apart by war?

A shared breath to survive, a confession, a drunk pub night and an experiment... and the relationship at Baker Street is shifted decidedly into new territory. Now what are they going to do about it? Alternate ending to S1, with a bit of the occasional case thrown in, but mostly Fluff and Figuring Out Their Feelings(tm) with a lovely little dosage of sexual tension. Enjoy!

When John wakes up on a boat with no recollection of how he got there and only accompanied by Sherlock Holmes and a bunch of strangers, he's a bit surprised. But as it turns out, getting home is a bit of a challenge. John has to learn to adapt and survive with the people around him while at the same time figuring out who could be behind this "game." Previously titled "Survivors"

Sherlock is drowning, in deep waters. The pain of all the years is bleeding out of Sherlock, and his universe is spinning. How will John save him? (lil bit Mystrade, and John and Sherlock sort out feelings)

Post-The Lying Detective AU. When John makes to leave, twenty minutes before Molly Hooper is due to 'mind' Sherlock after his experiences at the hands of Culverton Smith, what if he actually did go? What if sad, bereaved, hopelessly drug-damaged Sherlock Holmes is left alone to contemplate all he has lost? Molly is on her way, but what can she do? What does he need? Sherlolly.

Crimes were so simple before aliens, gods, and supernatural abilities made themselves known. But Sherlock Holmes never enjoyed simple and these inhumans and mutants provided quite a challenge. SHIELD needed someone to find the superpowered. Funny how both their needs can be met.

Sibley doesn't need to be taken care of. After all, since she was young, she paid the bills, cleaned the house, cooked the food. She can take care of herself. Social Services disagrees and so does Sherlock.

The Potters' move to 221 Baker Street was fairly misguided. Yes, the nosy neighbours and poisonous press weren't outright trying to kill them. But a consulting criminal knows exactly how to burn their hearts. So as London falls and memories shatter, a hero may be rewritten. — Books 1 and 2 are finished!

It's never a good idea to leave Sherlock and John alone with alcohol. One shot. Conversation only. Please read and review.

When Sherlock said, "If I wasn't everything that you think I am – everything that I think I am – would you still want to help me?" Molly thought she that understood what Sherlock meant. Molly has a very bad day, that will change the rest of her life.

Dr. John Watson has always had the heart of a Gryffindor. When he is introduced to the world of magic and becomes the guardian of the Boy Who Lived, the heart of the lion becomes more apparent than ever. This is the tale of a broken man and an abused little boy who find in each other the strength and courage to learn to live and love again. Eventual slash.

Sherlock broke her heart, and now, now she is in danger. Molly is taken, and Sherlock goes mad. And only when he saves her do they really get to talk and work through some of the things that need to be addressed. And Sherlock needs to learn how to beg for forgiveness.

Molly Hooper is pregnant and something about her story doesn't add up. Sherlock Holmes has resorted to rescuing cats from trees just to avoid thinking about it. Fortunately, Mary Watson, already on maternity leave and bored out of her mind, is on the case. AU after TAB.

Mycroft is obsessed with a certain Detective Inspector, but he lacks the confidence to do anything about it because he feels physically unattractive. He's desperate to find a treatment for his thinning hair and takes a gamble on an untested experiment. What could possibly go wrong! Well, just about everything it seems! Will Mycroft finally get his man? Total No. of Chapters 25

A series of one-shots between, during, and case aftermaths. There will be mistakes, post-case depression, visitors, confusion, arguments, adventures, danger & more. From Watson and Sherlock's perspectives. Canon relationships.

Sherlock and Molly's first conversation after Sherrinford. A late contribution to the ILY anniversary on Tumblr.

Sherlock would always be haunted by memories of one particular case. The first body, its once-so-familiar features blurred by the passing of time and death, moved him more than he would ever have expected. But the worst was the skeleton he uncovered later, bits of hair and clothes still clinging to it—which had no effect on him whatever, until he looked up and saw John's face.

'I Love You' was only the beginning.

It's time for the MET's Annual Halloween Fancy Dress party. If Sherlock can't be the pirate this time, he'll be the next best thing (and John is a bit of an instigator/enabler in this one).

While in London, she gets an invitation from the government official who saved her life, Mycroft Holmes and his wife, Anthea. Here the worlds of Miss Fisher and Sherlock collide. And where these two sleuths are, murder can't be far behind.

When Scotland Yard is stumped by the murder of Amelia Bones Sherlock Holmes investigates the seemingly impossible locked room mystery. His conclusion? "They teleported." Seven months later they bump into a trio of teens in a London cafe and John Watson discovers that his friend was perfectly serious. They are now in the thick of the strangest case of the great detective's career.

A new serial killer had already left his third victim behind. All evidence point to someone who had trained a beast to do his dirty work. But Sherlock finds a motive and everything changes. But why is John not by his side hunting the monster and hiding behind his work. Part 1 of Wolfes

Sherlock struggles with being a mate. John faces an unknown desire. While an enemy seeks to destroy a bond and the men who share it. Alpha/Omega dynamics. Angst and Feels abound but All Shall Be Well Friends! Mature in later chapters, starting with chapter 11.

Dr. John Watson has just witnessed the death of his best friend Sherlock Holmes and is now very depressed. In the face of his depression he also discovers that his life is a false one, he is adopted, and he has a brother that is living in the United States... Upon arriving in the states he is devastated to find that his brother recently died in The Alien Invasion of New York...

Greg becomes the poster boy for the Yard, going around schools to talk about his job. On such a trip he caught the eye of a true psychopath. Greg knew without a doubt this man is dangerous but no one beliefs him, until they had no choice.

John is a brave, selfless and kind friend. This is 5 times John Watson was there for someone, whether it be saving their ass, hooking them up, helping them out or whatever. Then one day John's injured shoulder causes him trouble during a case and a new deputy on Lestrade's force is being a total dick about it. He should have known better than messing with John Watson!

The Dursleys, Harry, Sherlock, John and Detective Inspector Lestrade all walk into a bank. What happens? Nothing good obviously… So what happens after they leave the bank after something tragic happens?

Since she was a child, Sally Donovan thought she was good at looking through appearances. Yet a strange case might prove her wrong when Sherlock seems to be the only one able to help the victims: deformed and disabled peoples who get killed for being different. On his side, John Watson will try to make his friend open up to him and reveal painful elements of his past.

When Benedict Cumberbatch went on "Top Gear" and said, "There's a load of fan fiction which has me and John Watson floating in space on a bed handcuffed to one another," three people wrote me within an hour to say it sounded a heck of a lot like this. Alternate universe. Almost literally.

"When Molly Hooper has trouble with a particularly badly damaged set of remains, she calls for backup in the form of an old friend; Temperance Brennan."

Although Harry and Ginny both survived the war, each bears scars from their year apart. The end of a war and the death of a brother don't make for an easy romance, but as long as there is the faintest, slimmest, wildest chance... The Weasleys gained and lost a member in one night. Will they ever be whole again? Best Romance and Best Drama/Angst in the 2014 HP Fanfic Fan Poll Awards

SEQUEL FIC! Another Christmas, another year... two broken souls... will they meet this time? Or will their past be too much for them to reconcile? Want to know? Then enjoy the read! :D I know, this is probably the vaguest summary you have ever read. But who wants to expose all their twists and turns in a summary! Please give it a go; I hope YOU will enjoy it :)

Armistice Day 2015, and John makes a lonely vigil to a small cemetery in London. LEST WE FORGET.

Friendship, h/c, humour, adventure. Companion piece to LastSaskatchewanSpacePirate's "What You Don't Know About Greg Lestrade". See A/N in first chapter. NOW COMPLETE!

All stories have to happen somewhere. And so it emerges...

Too normal to be a mutant yet too eccentric to pass as human, Sherlock made a game of hiding in plain sight. By ducking behind mirrors and making the truth so obvious it seemed absurd, he kept everyone oblivious and lived honestly among non-mutants. Then the war came.

This is the result of a thrown gauntlet to make an unscientific concept (Omegaverse) realistic. As always, acknowledgement and thanks to Messrs. Doyle, Moffat, Gatiss and Thompson.

Its only a month since John and Sherlock started sharing the flat, and now Sherlock is asking awkward questions about what John is hiding. Angst not winglock. One of my shortie Quickfics. For agnesanutter.

... and John sort of joins the Avengers. While Coulson's recovering from being stabbed in the chest by a magical spear, Fury is rapidly running out of Agents willing to play babysitter for the newly founded Avengers. So he calls in Captain John Watson, late of the British Royal Army, and blogger and best friend to the infamously antisocial presumably deceased Sherlock Holmes.

It was Sherlock's fault. It usually is. And though he'll ask forgiveness for what he's done, for the very first time John will say, 'This time no, Sherlock. This time, never.' And maybe, just maybe, John Watson is going to mean it.

John has tattoos. Sherlock has questions. Something like a love story eventually blooms, but it's not without its complications.

Sherlock has a friend. Well acquaintance. Well family and/or love interest. No, more like…well…Sherlock has a something. Someone. It's one mystery that John's dying to solve…until the mystery turns much more ominous when Bernard Black is kidnapped and Sherlock takes the case.

A year after Sherlock Holmes took the plunge off of St. Bart's hospital, John Watson gets the call that his cousin Phil Coulson was killed in an alien attack on Manhattan. He goes to sort out Phil's things, and gets far more than he bargained for. Avengers Movie!verse, rating changed at a reader's request for foul language.

In a world where almost a tenth of the population are born gifted, psychics and nulls live side-by-side, without fear or prejudice. Science has studied and categorized psychics by their gifts, developing the Darrow Scale by which the strength of those gifts are measured. But nature is balanced. When the Darrow Scale rating goes into the negative, the impossible walks: Ghost.

What happens when a certain man with a minor position in the British government decides that Nick Fury needs to expand his team? This. Also contains characters from Torchwood, Doctor Who and Supernatural.

Sherlock and John decide to fend off boredom with a night of heavy drinking.

Mycroft Holmes and Bernard Black have an Epic Bromance. Sherlock/Black Books crossover.
