After the Fire by midnights.hermit reviews
Three Missing Scenes from The Empty Hearse: After the bonfire John was safe and Mary was looking for Sherlock. Neither one of them had yet to thank him, and neither of them had even gotten the chance to make sure that he wasn't hurt.

The Impression of Heat by OhMyGoshsickles reviews
It's hard to pinpoint it, but most say that it started with the earthquakes, that when the fault lines started to crumble and shift like a dropped puzzle the world had officially started to end. Post Apocalyptic AU.

Virus in the Data by hatondog reviews
Ghosts are not all which shadow our every sunny day. Moriarty's post-mortem plans threaten to change modern life, and Sherlock's, forever. Solving the case will crumble his defenses and might cause him to become what he once thought would protect him-alone. Will the stakes of seeing his friends leave him be too high? Shame is, after all, a paralytic. Post-TAB.

Standing alone by masterlokiseverus159 reviews
Post Sign of three: Now that John is married and anticipating a child, Sherlock believes there is no need for John anymore. Or rather, there is no need to put his life in unnecessary danger when he has a family to look out for. Of course when Sherlock himself is in danger, he realises that perhaps you cannot make decisions for others and that maybe he is part of John's family too.

A Beautiful Mind by jankmusic reviews
Amnesia is always romanticized in Hollywood, but there's nothing romantic about losing your memory after a traumatic brain injury. Sherlock Holmes can't remember much from the last decade, but he's willing to spend the rest of his life committing the people he once knew into his memory.

Star Trek: Into Darkness/Sherlock Soulmates AU. The name that appeared on Molly's forearm on her 12th birthday belonged to a man long dead. The name that appeared on Khan's forearm, although he didn't know it, belonged to a woman not yet born. Fate, no matter how unfair they both regarded her, knew what she was doing and would find a way to bring these two souls together.
