Author: [livejournal.com profile] saki101
Characters/Pairings: Gregory Lestrade/Mycroft Holmes
Rating: R-ish
Genre: Slash, romance, AU
Word Count: ~1.5K
Disclaimer: Sherlock is not mine and no money is being made.
Summary: Starlight. Conversation. Surveillance tapes.
A/N: Not Series 3 compliant. A continuation of the fic written for Let's Write Sherlock Challenge 13-Vacation Getaway. Although these two chapters may be read alone, they may also be read as part of a Mystrade set of stories which, more or less, began with an earlier holiday in We Are Sorry For Any Inconvenience.

Excerpt: The room at the top of the stairs was dominated by a skylight, a huge oval of star-scattered heavens. By the faint light from the landing, Greg saw a few outlines of furniture and more sky out a series of arched windows making up one wall. It didn’t seem very secure, not at all suited to Mycroft. There was a click and the light disappeared, the stars coming into sharper focus.

Title: Wrapped Around Your Finger
Author: mojoflower
Status: 1/4
Characters and Pairings: Sherlock/John
Rating: Explicit
Warnings:  Sex!  If you need a warning for that.  Little bit manipulative and dub!con, not quite underage, but a vast age/experience difference
Length: 8K this chapter
Summary: Virgin!Sherlock, 18 and just out of school, is in Morocco in the early 1900's to learn about the ways of the world.  Dr. John Watson, lately invalided from the British Army at age 36, picks him up in the local bazaar.  Lessons (you know what kind!) are taught and absorbed.  Inspired by the song Wrapped Around Your Finger by The Police.  I'd say PWP except there's a soupcon of plot, given that it's a story worked around the lyrics of the song.  But basically, it's 8k words of aggressive, manipulative sex between two people of vastly different ages and experience.

**I apologize if I'm spamming your f'list with all the cross-posting!

*** The setting of this story is based on my having misheard a line of this song for my ENTIRE FUCKING LIFE, until I just now looked up the lyrics. The line I heard was "Hid in the casbah, you with passion linger". The actual line is, "Hypnotized by you if I should linger." I actually like my version better.  I tried for like 5 minutes to find the lyrics that mentioned the Casbah before I had to give in and realize it was my own personal "wrapped up like a douche" moment.

***John is a bit morally gray in this story. He takes distinct advantage of someone much younger than he (Sherlock is 18, and John is in his mid 30s), and the consent is a bit blurry. I'm just saying. But, hey, it's PWP, more or less. This isn't a warm fuzzies, happy-making story. It's more about wild fucking, manipulation, curiosity, satiation, growth and maturity. This is the first chapter of a 4-part series.
