When Irene Adler contacts Mycroft Holmes with some shocking information and instructs him not to share it with Sherlock, he believes it to be a calculated power play against him. In some ways he's right, but the truth is more complicated, and personal. Could be considered an AU sequel to NaSnaG, but is also a study on the relationship of the Holmes brothers.

This is just a scenario I pictured in my head on how Irene can be reintroduced into the series. Written more for humor than anything else.

Sherlock texts Irene out of the blue to ask a question. Written for humor.

This is the M-rated continuation of the last one-shot from my collection 'Dangerous Liaisons,' which ends with the sentence, "He returned to London four days later." An anon commenter asked, "4 DAYS later. Why can't we see how well she broke him over those four days?" This is my response ;)

"I know you. You're the woman who had Sherlock Holmes!"

This is a follow-up to Neither A Soldier Nor A Gentleman, and it takes place just before and during the opening scenes of Hounds of Baskerville in the context that they occurred not long after the events of Karachi. Why was Sherlock was behaving so erratically in those scenes?

To him, she was pure and innocent. He wanted to protect her from the darkness of the war. Yet, he never knew her heart was already dark and her soul was tainted. To her, he was once a bloodlusting demon. Yet, now she started to see that he was still so pure and innocent, like a child.

Just as boredom is about to take its toll on Sherlock Holmes, he receives an unexpected dinner invitation. Four years ago, he would have refused... but things have changed between himself and the Woman. Contains spoilers for series 3. Most chapters rated T, M rated chapters will be noted in the author's notes.

"In hindsight, though, she should have known there was more than a sexual predilection to it. He is, at the core, a scientist. It's no wonder he knows her breasts better than she does. And it's really no surprise he noticed before she did." During the hiatus, Sherlock and Irene battle a different kind of villain. Post-Reichenbach. Established relationship.

Sherlock tries to understand the dynamics of Valentines Day as he contemplates the reality of Irene Adler being his new flatmate.

As the deceptions escalate, John fears his friend may be falling into another dangerous trap. Bromance, romance, and angst. M for sexual content and drug references. Sequel to What He Likes, but can be read alone. Sherlock/Irene.

"When I say run, run." As a person who has been running all her life, those words should not have sent a chill of relief down Irene Adler's spine. But they did, and she was saved. However, how could she consider herself saved if her the very fabric of her existence has been altered? All she can do is run, and now, that's all Sherlock can do too. Post S2.

Sentiment, he thought. It was always something. (Or, the time Sherlock pitted The Woman's brains against his pathologist's deduction skills and he was surprised at the result.)

What if not only John, but Mary, had also asked for his help in dancing? With the appearance of the former Dominatrix, this wedding would be remembered by all of them for a long time…

Post-S3. Two years ago, Sherlock Holmes faked his suicide and has since gone back to his old life at Baker St. When the mysterious Irene Adler returns, the man is faced with his greatest challenge yet; the possibility of love. As an old foe returns, Sherlock, John and Irene must cooperate to survive. This time, however, the stakes might be too high even for Sherlock Holmes.

He hates how much he needs her in his head. It's a defense mechanism, it was survival. For same reason that John's voice echos in his ears, Irene Adler sometimes dances in front of his eyes, caresses his cheek, kisses him deeply. He needs this delusion the same way he needed the drugs once. How Irene repays a debt, how Sherlock's mind cracks, and a needed dance. Adlock.

How Sherlock loses his virginity. Takes place after The Scandal and Baskerville, but before Reichenbach. Sherlock/Irene Adler. I have no problem with Johnlock (I think it's actually very cute), but I also ADORE Irene Adler. Think of it this way- if Sherlock's straight, then we fangirls still have a fighting chance, if only in fiction. :-) MATURE CONTENT

What if the texts were a game between Irene and Sherlock? It started in a sitting room in Belgravia. And then they happened upon each other, purely by chance. And then again, on purpose. And again. Until they cared about each other. Until there was sentiment. Follows canon, but goes into the missing time not shown in the episode. Sherlock/Irene, but NOT anti-John. Sequel up.

Smut - Sherlock awakens in a strange room with a very familiar female.

An Irene/Sherlock drabble. At age 36 and nine months Sherlock finds his first grey hair, which indirectly leads to two significant conversations: one with Irene and later, one with John. Each conversation leaves the other person profoundly shocked by what Sherlock shares. Takes place several years after "Neither A Soldier..." Can be read without knowing that story, though!

Missing scenes from the end of ASiB, which unfold over the span of about 48 hours. How does Sherlock actually escape from the Karachi insurgents himself, and what happens when an adrenaline-filled Sherlock finds Irene waiting for him in his hotel room right after his audacious rescue? *COMPLETE*

Irene comes to see Sherlock and finds him alone, tortured by his inner demons. They finally give in to the need they both feel, letting go of everything. Two shot, since good things must be done twice.
