Carefully selected, high quality stories of angst, hurt/comfort, tragedy, adventure, romance, humor, friendship, AU, Cabin Pressure & Star Trek crossovers, etc. Join the BBC Sherlock regulars on their adventures and never worry about finding that perfect story again.

No Such Thing As 'Too Much' by BMRH reviews
"Oh, she did want him to open them. She wanted him to know that he was entirely under her control and how utterly defenceless he was at the moment. The thought of seeing that realisation in his drug addled eyes did not only excite her. It aroused her..."

An Unexpected Novel by Rayndrop reviews
No dragon or consulting detective can resist the fascination of riddling talk and of wasting time trying to understand it. Even if it's a silly, pointless fantasy novel. And after all, Sherlock is BORED. Oneshot; Sherlock reads "The Hobbit." ;
