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. FYI: I generally avoid Sherlock or John death fics. Mostly non-slash.

Lost for Words by A Wandering Minstrel reviews
Sherlock is assaulted by an unknown assailant while John is away, leaving him with a severe brain injury. While his intellect and personality are intact, he's having trouble moving and speaking easily. John finds himself as the main source of support to a flatmate struggling to do the things he loves most. And Sherlock Holmes has never been the best of patients.

The Shooting Party by sevenpercent reviews
Set just nine months after moving into 221b, a difficult case stymies the consulting detective and his blogger. Cue an engraved invitation to spend an autumn weekend in the country, which takes John and Sherlock to West Sussex, for some surprising revelations, deductions and introductions. Mostly John's POV. Stands alone, but feeds into all of my other stories. COMPLETE

A Hand by Maelynn Meep reviews
"A hand. Fingers. Carding through his hair. His mind registered the sensation vaguely, world far too fuzzy, like the lining of one of John's comfiest looking jumpers." Fluff. Sherlock whump to a degree. One-shot.

Strength In Numbers by LaSuen reviews
In the aftermath of a firing incident Sherlock is gravely injured. John takes care of him and does his best to make their new life work. Sherlock/John. Hard-core bromance to a point where it could be safely regarded as pre-slash.

Too Long in the Night by Mercury17 reviews
What if Moriaty had never appeared on those screens and Sherlock had taken off to go undercover? John tries to convince Mycroft to go on a rescue mission. Sherlock tries to survive with what he went through last time making it all the harder. As always, characters definitely not mine.

Otherwise Involved by ACtravels reviews
It's just… he's never explained this to anyone. He's never attempted to because it didn't need quantifying or modifying or cataloguing before now – it just was, and now it just isn't, and John's cut loose and at a loss of what to tell people. Sherlock's gone and everyone is silently asking him what, exactly, he has lost.

Spider's Nest by strawberrywine17 reviews
When Sherlock has to be rushed to the hospital after an incident on a crime scene, John's left wondering if he's ever going to stop fearing for the man's life. Nothing will never be the same again as they are both thrust into the world of learning to heal. The doctors had said there would likely be memory problems but this is far beyond what either of them would have ever expected.
