Sherlock Fic Recs:  [1] [2] [3] [4] Here’s a Fic Masterlist for my other fandoms. ( ** =  favorites )

  **The Bravery of the Soldier by bakerstreetgirl 

Word count:  101,703 (26/26)

Summary:  When a news story about a hostage situation in Afghanistan breaks, details about John Watson's military service come to light that the doctor had kept secret for a long time. Sherlock is intrigued and John manages to surprise the British government. What John needs in light of this story and the PTSD responses it flares up, is a friend. Can Sherlock Holmes step up to the job?

Comments:  My favorite Sherlock fic, I go back and reread this one all the time. Also available on FF.net

  Electric Pink Hand Grenade by BeautifulFiction

Word count:  67,718 (13/13)

Summary:  "If Sherlock's brain is a hard drive, then these attacks are an electro-magnetic pulse." Sherlock Holmes does not do anything by half, not even a migraine. It falls to John to witness one of the greatest minds he has ever known tear itself apart, and he must do his best to help Sherlock pick up the pieces.

  **J.B. Rhine Was Kind of a Dick by CharleyFoxtrot

Word count:  24,957 (7/7)

Summary:  A precog, a telepath, an empath, and a clairvoyant walk into a bar. That their names are Sally Donovan, John Watson, Greg Lestrade, and Sherlock Holmes may or may not be highly relevant.

Comments:  Part 1 of the Talented People With Interesting Skillsets series.

  **Crazy Men With Guns by CharleyFoxtrot

Word count:  37,791 (9/9)

Summary:  “You want us to be some...what, psychic and potentially homoerotic Charlie's Angels?"

John Watson's observations aren't too far off the mark: Afghanistan replaces London and our psychic quartet begins to learn the practical applications of their skills in a warzone. General badassery is just a side-effect.

Comments:  Part 2 of the Talented People With Interesting Skillsets series.

  Bed-Sharing Between Flatmates by testosterone_tea

Word count:  5,053 (1/1)

Summary:  5 times Sherlock had an excuse to share John's bed, and the one time he didn't need one.

  Just a kiss by emmagrant01

Word count:  19,695 (7/7)

Summary:  Five times John and Sherlock kissed because of a case and one time they kissed for real.

  Five Times John Cooked Something with Peas and One First Kiss by 221b_careful_what_you_wish_for

Word count:  3,915 (1/1)

Summary:  After John cooks five dinners that slowly reveal their hunger for each other, Sherlock and John finally share a first kiss.

Coming home to find John busy in the kitchen, a strong wave of domesticity had washed over Sherlock, stirring up something unexpected, something he hadn't quite known he craved until now. But it was more than companionship he was responding to, it was... what, exactly?

Intimacy. That was the word he was fumbling for. It felt intimate to walk into their home, water bubbling, spoon circling, fingers mounding, scooping, cradling food.

(Inspired by Sherlock’s line about John from The Sign of Three: “And he can cook… Does a thing … with peas…”)

  Five Times He Woke Up With Sherlock, and the One Time He Didn't... by MrsNoggin

Word count:  2,750 (6/6)

Summary:  It was a strange experience, waking up beside someone in bed. It had been a while since he had last done it and John found himself conscious, in his semi-conscious state, of all those old dilemmas of morning breath and pillow-creased cheeks and blood rushes to odd places.

Comments:  FLUFFY.

  **Semper Fidelis by Blind_Author

Word count:  57,642 (13/13)

Summary:  Written for a prompt. Moriarty frames John and "Anthea" of betrayals which cause both of the Holmes brothers to cut them off. Cue BAMF!John and BAMF!"Anthea" doing their best to clear their names.

Oooooh, yes. Definitely read Empathy first. And then Apathy. Apathy won’t make a whole lot of sense without having read Empathy first, as that explains the whole empath thing, and how they got to where they are. After those, there’s also the Collection, which is where I dump everything because there are plenty of stories that are in the ‘verse but don’t fit into either series. Those are all sort of all over the place, but Turn of the Tide is intended to be the beginning of the third arc (probably An Experiment in Solidarity, if I ever manage to write more of the damn thing).

Sherlock realizes that he's been neglecting John.

OK, here's the ficlet I was talking about yesterday. It's pretty rough, but oh well. Like I said, I wrote it in my head in the shower.

Now I'm going to go run away from tumblr because BBCOne keeps posting shit from Doctor Who AND I HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET BECAUSE I DO NOT LIVE IN THE UK GODDAMMMIT.

Anyway. Empath!John. No particular place of origin as far as the serieses go, except "after they start having teh secks". Silliness. Etc.

So, looking for some fun, fluffy empath!John prompts.
