Fic Recs, mostly Sherlock
Oct. 29th, 2011 12:41 pmThe one non-Sherlock rec: A Cabin Pressure story called Yalta One word: Otters!
Mycroft macro that made me laugh like a hyena
Direct from BBC Sherlock:
Shaddicted has a closeup of John's resume from The Blind Banker Included for ficcing purposes.
S2 PLOT SPOILERS: Total Film article including quotes from Gatiss, Cumberbatch, Freeman, & Moffat
Fic
Clean:
Five Ghost Stories I'm pretty sure this is the same person who did the Five Nightmares I recced previously. The ghosts of the past haunt memories. (Mycroft's really got me.)
Molly Hooper gets to kick ass! Paper Fortunes (4 parts, link leads to first.)
Once More With Feeling (7 parts, link leads to first) To put off his meddlesome, matchmaking mother, John convinces Sherlock to play the role of his significant other. Unparalleled awkwardness ensues... especially when John tries to insist they break up so he can date the woman his mother tried to set him up with. (There's no plot here, but I got a giggle out of the character interactions)
Slash:
Physical Turns out Sherlock isn't asexual; he just didn't know that he only responds to a very specific kink. Good thing John's qualified to play doctor...
I'm linking to the rec page for this one because it's one-stop linkage to the story, the NSFW missing scene, and the podfic. Want You Here Tonight. One of the bazillion first time stories. (S/J first time is starting to rival Catherine/Vincent deflowering stories as a massive sub-genre.)
Someone on the kinkmeme wanted to see realistic condom use; the result: 3 Times John and Sherlock Used a Condom The name is prosaic, the text... isn't.
PS - It's not so much that I've given up on Saturday Sherlock discussing canon, it's that it's taken a back seat to the rest of life right now. I plan on picking that back up later in the year so that I can have gone through the canon before I go to Scintillation of Scions next June.
