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.

His name was like a mantra on John's lips, as if saying it could bring back the one he missed most. Post-Reichenbach. Canon. Spoilers for Season Two. I know it's longish, which a lot of people seem to bypass longer stories, but... you know me. Give it a shot.
