Johnâs Internalized Homophobia
Internalized Homophobia Pt 2
Gay John (Updated June 2024)
Happy Sunday everyone! Continuing on with me providing some fantastic updated or new lists for Pride Month (and because I haven't been asked for them after them sitting for AGES LOL), I'm continuing this week with some Bi-John fics, which I know a lot of y'all love!! Had to split the original list because I have SO MANY, so this week are fics that are bookmarked or are Series and WIPs.
The next list is for my MFL fics, so if you have any that you'd like me to add to a new list, within which John is EXPLICITLY Bisexual (not questioning), please let me know and I'll add them to the Pt. 2 list!

The lands lay barren and all that remains of the places of old are rubble and ruins. The only way out is down. But humankind persists, adapts, evolves and reinvents itself. And underground the cities of old rise once more. Where bunkers developed into settlements, and settlements into towns new alliances were formed. And the world soon begins to wonder who is friend and who is foe. What starts as a fairytale might just evolve into a curse. A curse so realistic that soon no one can tell apart what is truly there and what might just be an illusion. And far above it all, storms and rain continue to beat down on the hostile wastelands. Nature is ever so uncaring about who might fall next. This is the story of Sherlock and John in a futuristic version of London, a city located beneath the ruins of Old London and divided by money, status, technology, concrete and steel.

And a perfumer, a chemist no less, the very thought of the secrets that house could reveal, would reveal was irresistible. Sherlock had to have this case ... and it seems, he also had to have John!
