Title: Wrapped Around Your Finger
Author:

mojoflower
Status: 4/4
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: 27k
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.

*** 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. In spite of my best efforts, a happy ending will be had by all.

Title: Seat Assignment: Open
Author:

saki101
Characters/Pairings: Gregory Lestrade/Mycroft Holmes, OCs, cameos
Rating: R-ish
Genre: Slash, romance, AU
Word Count: ~4K
Disclaimer: Neither Sherlock nor Cabin Pressure are mine and no money is being made.
Summary: During the Hiatus, Greg’s and Mycroft’s interest in one another develops beyond the professional.
A/N: Not Series 3 compliant. Written for Let's Write Sherlock Challenge 13-Vacation Getaway. Although the story may be read alone, the theme of the challenge prompted me to write another story in the Mystrade series which, more or less, began with an earlier holiday in We Are Sorry For Any Inconvenience.

Excerpt: Nine days of leisure stretched before Greg. He hadn’t a reservation or a plan for a single hour of it. He’d received a few winks and nudges when he’d said he hadn’t booked anything. A week in bed with a like-minded partner would have been an excellent way to spend the time, but he didn’t have that lined up either. He pushed a certain thought away as he slipped between the tourists and commuters and continued east along the Embankment.

Title: Midsummer Murders
Author: mojoflower
Status: 5/?
Characters and Pairings: Sherlock/John
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: Sex! If you need a warning for that. Starts out with a bang.
Length: 17k so far
Summary: Scattered across the English countryside, drifting from one Bacchanalian gathering to the next, hundreds of people are camping, dancing, singing... and some of them are dying. How will this relate to John, and the egg he currently nurtures? Chasing summer festivals on the trail of a murderer, tripping over hints of a 20-year-old crime ring, learning anew about one another, John and Sherlock dedicate themselves to untangling the case. This is a sequel to Murderous Imprint, which should definitely be read first.

Chapter excerpt:

Sherlock lurches away from it all, knocks the shower head awry, grabs at slick plastic and falls over the edge of the tub, bringing the wet curtain down with him in a glorious crash. The rattle of water hitting the plastic as he lies on the cold tile floor is too loud, and puddles are forming under him, and he’s tangled in the damned curtain, thrashing.

“Sherlock. Sherlock! Stop moving. Stop. It’s ok. It’s all right.” John’s voice begins in a commanding, loud tone, and gradually softens into his recognizable egg croon. There’s a grating squeak as he turns the faucet off, and water stops beating all around Sherlock on the floor. “It’s ok, Sherlock. Don’t move. Let me get you out of there.”

Sherlock struggles to suppress panicked instinct with rationality, and goes still, only his ears and the tip of his tail twitching feverishly. He can feel motion against his back, still, and flinches minutely, repeatedly, worried about what it could be, what threat it represents. He feels utterly disoriented and afraid.

Sorry for the spam, but I didn't want to lump all eleven fics together as these three are not part of that series.

Title: Not A Wasted Word
Fandom: Sherlock
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes/Molly Hooper, John Watson/Mary Morstan, Greg Lestrade/Sally Donovan; Molly Hooper, Sally Donovan, Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Mary Morstand, Jim Moriarty, Irene Adler, Anderson, Mummy Holmes
Summary: Molly Hooper is a moderately successful young adult novelist. Her life is completely uneventful, more or less, until the day she goes to her favorite library and runs smack into the new head librarian, Sherlock Holmes. Her life is definitely not the same from that point forward, but in the end she wouldn't have it any other way.
Authors Notes: I had so much fun writing the bar AU I figured I would try my hand at a library AU partially inspired by a prompt from imagineyourotp on Tumblr. It doesn't really follow the prompt too closely because every other time Molly goes to the library she gets distracted from checking out books but it's still a really good story, I think.

Title: The Unexpected Revelation In The Morning
Fandom: Sherlock
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes/Molly Hooper
Summary: Sherlock wakes up to an empty bed, and upon going out into the kitchen he hears someone singing in one of the most beautiful voices he has ever heard. He is very surprised to learn that it is Molly who has quite the angelic voice.
Authors Notes: Part of my "Anything Can Happen" series.

Title: The Bitter Past
Fandom: Sherlock
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Sally Donovan-centric; mentions of Sherlock Holmes
Warnings: Mentions of drug abuse and self-harm
Summary: Scotland Yard wasn't the first time they had met, but Sherlock didn't remember. Of course he didn't; it had all meant nothing to him. But Sally remembered, and she wasn't about to forgive him. Not now. Not ever.

Summary: John is deaf. Sherlock is mute. There are no two people more suited for each other.

Written for Let's Write Sherlock: Challenge 4

Author's note: This idea came to me waaay after the deadline for this challenge had already passed. But, I wrote it anyway. The challenge was this: Write a fic that is exactly 1895 words long and ends with the word “obviously.”

I technically met the second criterion. Technically ;)

prettybirdy979, to help cheer her up after a challenging week. I asked her to give me a prompt and this is what she asked for: Sherlock and John hugging after some kind of close call. Kissing is welcome.

Summary: Sherlock Holmes doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve. Not even when it comes to - no, especially when it comes to - the most important person in his life.

Author's note: This was written for the Let's Write Sherlock Challenge 2: Choose a favorite fairy tale and rewrite it with characters from Sherlock. I chose the English fairytale Cap O' Rushes. I've included two versions of this tale here and here. Originally posted under the title "Cap O' Rushes."

Summary: Sherlock is thrown out of his home by his brother, Lord Mycroft Holmes. Alone and friendless, he does his best to harden his heart against any further entanglements. But even he couldn't foresee the arrival of Captain John Hamish Watson.
