    Summary

    When you have a fever, you go soft.

    First the bones give way. The proud frame collapses, the spine curls into the duvet, folding into a small, stubborn shape that refuses to ask for help.

    Then the lips soften—the dry, cracked lips that can’t quite manage a cutting remark. All they can murmur is one word: cold.

    And finally, the hand. That hand that plays the violin, that conducts experiments, that points at a crime scene and says “elementary.”

    It slips out from under the duvet and catches the fabric of his shirt.

    It holds on so gently and yet so tightly.

    Not with the usual controlled composure.

    But the way a drowning man grabs at driftwood—no technique, only instinct.

    Clutching his shirttail. His sleeve. His collar.

    It holds on all night long. It doesn’t let go until dawn.

    All night he calls his name.

    And all night the other answers, “I’m here.”

    The truth is, the fever has made him half delirious; he doesn’t even know what he’s calling for.

    But each time he calls, a warm hand reaches out and rests on his forehead.

    It stays there until he quiets, then slowly withdraws.

    Summary

    What would have happened if John had helped Sherlock dismantle Moriarty's network? After the fall and funeral, John despairs, but also embraces a glimmer of hope—that Sherlock is alive. Sometimes wishes do come true.

    This alternative universe follows John as he and Sherlock work to hunt those who seek to harm the ones they love. In the process who knows, they may even save each other.

    This story diverges at the end of season 3. There is no Eurus (thank you very much).

    Thank you so much to Avengers Reader (also know as givemesherbet on Tumblr) who not only is beta'ing this story, but who it's for! She suggested this incredible premise. For Fandom Trumps Hate

    Summary

    Mycroft Holmes classified his wife as a structural adjustment, and the structure has been adjusting ever since.
    When counterintelligence operative Belinda Cross becomes an operational irregularity in Mycroft's life, he does what he does best: he builds architecture around her. A spare room becomes a residence. A residence becomes a civil partnership. A civil partnership becomes a marriage. The marriage becomes the one room in his life he did not design and cannot control.
    She makes the tea wrong. He places a glass of water beside her medication every morning. She fixes his collar. He leaves the study door open. Neither of them calls it love, because calling it love would require a vocabulary neither of them has built yet.
    Then Sherlock comes back. Then Mary dies. Then Eurus starts testing whether the Iceman can break.

    Summary

    The story published under the title of The Empty House had a great deal of truth in it. Ronald Adair was shot through a window by Sebastian Moran wielding an air rifle. Holmes sprung a trap to catch him in a vacant building that overlooked 221B Baker Street.

    But I was not by his side in that silent, brooding darkness. Indeed, had it not been for the diligence of the British press, I may have been none the wiser. For Holmes, in his haste to conclude that dreadful business, had not seen fit to inform me of his return.

    Summary

    John Watson was not a simple man. He had his fair share of desires and fantasies, but this 'little' issue was by far one he could not conquer on his own. His companion tried to help him resolve this, but Holmes has a few difficulties he too has to face.
    The two men take up a case, leaving their concerns for later. Can they both solve their problems whilst on duty? Or does it end with conflict and breakup?

    Summary

    This is part two of The Devil’s Tiger series! So if you haven’t read part one, please do.

    And if you have, then I do hope you enjoy :)

    ——

    After James Moriarty and Sherlock Holmes died on the rooftop of St. Bart’s hospital; the world moved on. But Sebastian Moran couldn’t.

    Without his boss, his lover, his everything, he struggles to find a way forward in a world that always seemed so against him. Moriarty's network is in Moran’s hands now, and he’s trying his best. His friends and colleagues are trying to help in anyway they can; but soon enough even they can’t predict his next move.

    It’s okay though, because the boss is returning soon enough. If anyone can drag Sebastian back in line, then it’s James Moriarty, who maybe wasn’t quite as dead as he’d seemed.

    Summary

    A series on minor vandalism events shouldn't be enough to interest Sherlock Holmes - different neighbourhoods and clearly unrelated.

    Or so John thought.

    When events take a hateful turn, Sherlock and his Boswell become the center of one of the most sickening hate crimes to take place in London, in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Sherlock really thought that his old life would just resume. More accurately, he didn't think that his absence could change what seemed so concrete to him. The daily motions in his life would go on.

    Or Sherlock comes back from the dead to find that he's alone. Instead of putting the pieces back together, he lets things stay broken.

    Summary

    It has been two years since Sherlock Holmes faked his death-dive off the roof of St Bartholmew’s Hospital (“The Reichenbach Fall”). This story continues from the point in “The Empty Hearse” in which a very much alive Sherlock Holmes has returned (disguised as a French waiter) and revealed himself to John Watson (in a hilariously appalling manner), disrupting John’s dinner date with Mary Morstan—the woman to whom John was about to propose marriage.

    From this point forward, we enter an alternate Sherlock storyline, in which John’s life takes a different turn.
