Dear Reader: If you have not read these, I envy you, for you will get to do what I can no longer do: read these stories for the first time. Alas, I can only read them for the 20th or 30th time. Ad infinitum.

The Science of Confessions / @finamour​ : I am endeavouring to get you to notice that I am in love with you, but that doesn’t seem to be working.

34 Minutes / @bendingsignpost​ : An experiment in eye contact.

A Quiet Murmuration / @cathedralcarver​ : Just pay me back with one thousand kisses.

Cold Snap / MirithGriffin : The Mayo Clinic prescription for hypothermia is this: Tea. Blanket fort. Sex. All right, it doesn’t come right out and say that on the website. But Sherlock can read between the lines.

The Oolong Disaster / @unicornpoe​ : John has a beard. Sherlock has a panic attack.

First Night Out / @verity-burns​ : As John recovers from the effects of a brutal kidnapping, he and Sherlock attend the Yarders’ Christmas Party. There are… developments on the dance floor…

What Meets the Eye / worldaccordingtofangirls : Amnesia is just another case to solve. Piece together unfamiliar faces, reconstruct the old identity, the lost reality. A challenge that Sherlock could even enjoy. He can read people like books. The man with the silver hair is his boss. The tottering old woman, his landlady. The girl with the worried look in her eyes…infatuated. And as for John Watson? His husband. Obviously.

Because Blah Blah Blah Happy / cwb : John is entirely done with the milk situation and gives Sherlock a list of shit he’s pissed about. Sherlock sets out to make John happy. John is happy. Sherlock makes his own list. They are both very, very happy.

And sooo many more, enough for another post!
