Author: REDACTED
Verse: Granada TV Show
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes & John Watson
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: None
Summary: Watson slowly made his way towards the stairs but stopped as he passed by Holmes’ closed bedroom door. There were faint noises coming from Holmes’ bedroom, noises of distress. Watson hesitated, unsure of what to do. His instinct was to enter the room and try to help Holmes, but Watson did not know if his help would be welcome, especially as he would have to intrude on Holmes’ personal space to do so.

Verse: Doyle - Canon

Summary: When two near-strangers intended to share lodgings, it was best that they knew the worst of each other before they entered into an agreement.

Fic for rabidsamfan: Potential for Friends

Recipient: Rabidsamfan
Author: REDACTED
Verse: Books: Doyle - Canon(Directly after A Study in Scarlet)
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, mentions of Jefferson Hope, Stamford, and Victor Trevor, no established relationships or pairings
Rating: T
Warnings: PTSD, drug usage(Smoking 'ship's'), verbal arguments, Nightmares
Summary: After A Study in Scarlet, Holmes observes Watson, and tries to reconcile with the fact that Watson may have just worked past his defenses… and just how he truly feels about this development of having a friend. And yet, after a fight, Holmes realizes just how much Watson carries-and why, to Holmes, having Watson around baffles him. But... maybe that's not a bad thing?

Fic for DeeLaundry: Meeting Mr Holmes

Title: Meeting Mr Holmes
Recipient: DeeLaundry
Author: REDACTED
Verse: Sherlock & Co
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson, Sherlock Holmes & Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock Holmes & John Watson, John Watson, Sherlock Holmes, Mycroft Holmes
Rating: Teen and up
Warnings: No archive warnings apply
Summary:
”You say that, mate, but you told me the other week that your brother may as well be the British Government sometimes, and that he’s always been overprotective of you.” John countered, “For all I know, I’ll stick my foot in it and next thing I end up ‘disappeared’!”

Sherlock’s eyebrow rose, but his exasperated face was undermined by the fond smile he was failing to hide.


-

A few months into their relationship - and since John discovered Sherlock had an older brother - the couple receive an invitation to join Mycroft Holmes for an afternoon tea. John is, predictably, anxious about making a good impression. But will he manage to do so with the mysterious elder Mr Holmes?

Holmestice gift for DeeLaundry - who asked about what this universe's version of Mycroft Holmes would be like. I hope I do him justice for you!
