Hi! I hope things are going good with you, hopefully you aren't battling this awful heat! 🥵
I was wondering if you (or anyone) knows what the name of this fic might be, and where I could find it?
It might be a 5 + 1, but I can't really remember. It was from Sherlock’s POV, and was about the different times he was going to tell John he was alive after the fall, but something always stopped him. I know the first time was at the cemetery, after he heard John wish he wasn't dead, and he was going to tell him, but he noticed that someone (one of the snipers maybe?) had followed John and Mrs. Hudson, and he decided it wasn't safe. There were other times like when he found out that John was in bad shape and not doing well; when John started doing dangerous things to get the adrenaline rush and as a release for his anger; when John started on a drunken "sexcapade" type of downslide being very promiscuous with men and women; etc. Every time Sherlock planned to tell John he was alive, and bring him in on the Lazarus plan, something stopped him. Whether it was due to danger to John or Sherlock got into some kind of bind and wasn't able to, or Mycroft stopped him. I don't remember how many different times he started to tell John, but the fic was somewhat on the longer side, probably at least 10k-20k. It was a Johnlock ending and was kind of racy/explicit when they did get together, so probably at least a M or E rating.
That's all I can remember, and I haven't found it from my AO3 searches, so it may not be there for sure but I'm pretty sure it is. I hope I gave enough info that it's recognizable to someone! I've been breaking my brain trying to find it! 😂
Thank you in advance and for all of your hard work in the fandom!
Hi Nonny!!
Ahh, the heat OMG. It's off and on here... some weeks it gets to the low 40s, and others like today it's in the low 20s. But I still prefer summer over winter, honestly. Winters here are awful LOL.
ANYWAY, sorry, I genuinely don't know which fic this one is, though it does sound vaguely familiar. I might have it on one of my Five and One Lists:
Five and Ones (Updated December 2023)
Five and Ones Pt 2 (Updated June 30/26)
Perhaps the details will click with someone!
Anyone able to help us out with this one?
