    Summary

    Sherlock Holmes made a wish.

    Not for revenge. Not for brilliance. Not even for forgiveness.
    He made a wish to save John Watson.

    But magic is never kind. It does not forget. And it never gives without asking something back.

    To bring John back, Sherlock must survive three trials: silence, sacrifice, and blood. He cannot speak of them. He cannot be witnessed. If he fails, the timeline resets. If he succeeds, he lives in a world where John breathes again—but only if Sherlock becomes a stranger to the man he once loved.

    A time-travel fix-it woven with grief, memory, and the terrible cost of getting what you want.
    This is not a resurrection.
    This is what comes after

    Summary

    Rosie is getting married. Her fiancé’s parents are coming to dinner.
    There’s just one problem: they think her family is straight, respectable, and completely ordinary.
    Which would be easier…
    if her father wasn’t John Watson, an ex-army surgeon and the manager of a drag club.
    And if her other father wasn’t Sherlock Holmes, the world's only consulting detective and the star of said drag club.

    A Birdcage-inspired AU set in London’s drag scene, La Cage aux Holmes is a story about family, performance, the art of passing, and the beautiful chaos of being seen for who you are... even when it’s deeply inconvenient.

    But when the dinner table becomes a stage, only one question matters: who can keep a straight face?

    Summary

    House martins are agile migratory swallows that follow a fixed seasonal pattern: departing southern England each autumn and returning in spring to rebuild their nests beneath eaves and along cliffs. Their arrival and departure mark a quiet cycle — one of absence, return, and the traces left behind.

    Told entirely through Sherlock Holmes’ one-sided emails over four years, this is a story of beekeeping, forensic decay, questionable jam, and emotional migration — of two men making their way back to one another, one season at a time.

    Summary

    To Sherlock’s dismay, John’s return to Baker Street with Rosie is only temporary. Sherlock’s daily visits to Regent Park with John and Rosie illuminate his lost childhood memories and missed opportunities. But with each trip to the park, Sherlock also feels a growing sense of hope. That is until the past horrors return unexpectedly in a cryptic note folded in the shape of a heart. To decipher the message, Sherlock must uncover the nature of the hearts around him, including his own.

    Post S4. First person Sherlock POV. Case fic.

    Written for Fandom Trumps Hate (which needs our support now more than ever before) and for the talented bluebellofbakerstreet, who requested some BAMF John busting in and saving the day along with fluff, because, um, BAMFs are softies at heart (and that's exactly what this story is about).

    Thank you so much to hotshoeagain for the incredible beta, advice and suggestions. You are a star.

    Summary

    The mother was apparently poisoned, the son seems to have killed himself playing Russian roulette. It's a murder and a suicide. Or is it a suicide and a murder?

    At least the case is distracting John from the fact that sex with Sherlock was probably a mistake right from the start.

    John will learn to cope, one way or another.
