Stories in which John Watson displays his awesome, butt-kicking skills. Also includes just John generally being cool. Minimal slash. May not be completely John-centric; crossovers included. Because John just doesn't get enough love.

Polyphiloprogenitive by scrub456 reviews

The Empty Home by chai4anne reviews
Sherlock would always be haunted by memories of one particular case. The first body, its once-so-familiar features blurred by the passing of time and death, moved him more than he would ever have expected. But the worst was the skeleton he uncovered later, bits of hair and clothes still clinging to it—which had no effect on him whatever, until he looked up and saw John's face.

Of Pets and Text Messages by detectivejigsaw reviews
John thinks a bit about his and Sherlock's relationship, after a bad dream. This is after "His Last Vow," has some spoilers. It is not slash, and I don't own the characters, they belong to Moffat and Gatiss, etc, etc. Sorry if it's out of character at all; I figure it's 2 am, John's slap-happy, and it's after the Fall, so Sherlock's a little more emotionally vulnerable.

What Makes a Brother by detectivejigsaw reviews
John finally figures out a way to convince people he and Sherlock aren't a couple. Sherlock learns an interesting truth at the same time. I'm not sure how to make this longer, so I'm calling it complete. If you have suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I don't own, etc.

A Night in the Woods by detectivejigsaw reviews
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go camping. Before you say, "I've read this before" and look elsewhere, it's different from the stereotypical punchline somewhat. I hope you like it.

Boiling Over by detectivejigsaw reviews
John's been in kind of a bad mood, and when Sherlock criticizes his blog-again-it sets him off. Written to express my own frustration at Sherlock's criticism. No slash, despite a moment of misunderstanding; I dunno if it means I have to raise the rating or not. Slightly fluffy. And, for those who like it, there's a smidgen of Anderson-bashing; granted it's verbal only. Pre-Reich.

08 BBC Sherlock: UNSPOKEN SUBTEXTS from The Empty Hearse by Wynsom reviews
(Sherlock BBC 3:1) Scenes and Subtexts from The Empty Hearse. What were John's thoughts after discovering Sherlock was alive? What were Sherlock's after John's rejection? Each chapter inserts words not spoken that explores how their friendship survives The Fall. (Faithful to the BBC series with some liberties.) Thanks to sevenpercent for her insights that supported this rewrite.

06 BBC Sherlock: UNSUMMONED by Wynsom reviews
"Blood is thicker than water," except when it comes to Sherlock Holmes. When "BLUD," to all intents and purposes, seemed to have failed the detective in THE REICHENBACH FALL, John Watson chooses to soldier up, face their enemy together, and summon the courage to protect his friend. This series revisits the tragic scenes in TRF from John's POV. (T for language in later chapters)

SNAFU by scrub456 reviews
