Hi there Steph! I’m violia. 
I was a diehard BBC Sherlock & Johnlock fan back in 2011-2012. I read fic voraciously and adored the show. Those months after series 2 aired were such a fun time to be in fandom and I remember it fondly! I eventually moved on from the fandom, (dropped back in briefly for series 3 & 4), but now for some reason, ten years later, I find myself being drawn back to it. I’m definitely feeling nostalgia for those first two series of the show, the excitement, creativity, fic and meta in fandom at the time, and just generally that entire early 2010s era. It was a different time. 
Naturally, back then, I didn’t bookmark any of my favourite fics, and I’ve forgotten nearly all of them now. But I was delighted to stumble across your blog in my search for fics! So I’ve come to ask for some recs, if you have them! There are two different types of fics I’m looking for: 
Fics that explore/feature depictions of London as a city. Descriptions of different parts of the city, Sherlock and John exploring the city (maybe in casefic), etc. I’m really interested in reading fics that are firmly and specifically situated in their settings. 
Fics that stand out as having particularly strong British/English characterisations, dialogue, mannerisms and cultural references. 
I’ve been using the search function on Tumblr to look for fics, which I will continue to do. But any help you could give would be greatly and gratefully appreciated. I hope you have a lovely day!

Hi Viola!!!
Ah, welcome back again to the fandom!! I’m happy you have found your way here and have taken joy from my blog!!
Ahhh, this is a good question re: fics... for the first one the only one that comes immediately to mind is this one:
Darkling, I Listen by You_Light_The_Sky (T, 73,254 w., 8 Ch. || Fairy Tale AU || Loosely Based on Beauty and the Beast, Magical Realism, Suicidal Themes, Romance, Creepiness, Adventure) – No one who enters old London ever comes out. They say that the beast devours them. When his sister disappears, John ventures into the dead zone beyond the wall, and finds a brilliant madman under a terrible curse... Part 1 of Darkling I Listen + Extras, Deleted Scenes
And some other AUs that the names are escaping me, sadly D: I recently just read one that focussed a lot on London as a city and I can’t remember what it was, OOF.
As for the second one... Ah..... every fic kind of is that for me primarily because I’m an ignorant Canadian 🙃 hahah. 
If anyone has something particular to suggest for either request please do!!
And thank you for your ask, Lovely!! Hope you’re enjoying your time here!! :D

Hi, everybody. I don’t usually do this, but I’m so sad and lost right now. I just need to laugh so desperately right now and remember everything will be ok. Does anyone have any favorite funny Johnlock to recommend? The more the better. Thank you. Jane

Did people ever end up sending you fanfiction to read? If not I can find some for you, since John’s asleep
People did send me. But more data is always needed for good research. Maybe something fitting to the other ongoing experiment discussion?

hey, I'm looking for a fanfic. it's on ao3, far under 100k but at least 10k I'd say.
basically Sherlock doesn't want John to leave and find someone new and so he makes himself the convenient option.
I'm pretty sure they're on a date in an Indian restaurant at some point there and Sherlock is trying to determine a spice-o-meter for butter Chicken to rank them across london.
basically Sherlock doesn't know how to romance but wants John to be with him a disappointed they slowly slup into thsi synaptic before John confronts him and then they do it properly
Hey Lovely!
Oh gosh I thought I knew this one until you mentioned the butter chicken thing and now I don't know LOL.
AH I want to know though, 'cause I feel like I have read this one before... AHHHH. Anyone able to help us out??

Hello! Do you have any fic recs for John reading the AGRA flash drive? Ty!
Hey Nonny!
Ah, none that I can recall, thought I'm certain I have, oof. I checked my offline MFL list and here are fics tagged with AGRA that MIGHT????
Magpie: Three for a Girl by 7PercentSolution (G, 24,673 w., 6 Ch. || Five and Ones, BAMF Mary / AGRA, Action / Adventure) – The mystery that is Mary—who she is, where she came from and what debts she accrued along that journey. How did she come to fall in love with a man she was supposed to be protecting and why it leads her to put a bullet in Sherlock's chest.
The King is Dead by SilentAuror (E, 40,898 w., 1 Ch. || S3 / HLV Fix-It, Romance, POV John, Drama) – Moriarty is dead. But has a new king risen to take his place? As John sorts out what to do about the AGRA memory stick and his marriage, he and Sherlock are investigating precisely who and what was behind the broadcast on New Year's Day.
=====
But don't quote me, LOL.
Anyone able to help us out and give us a fic that Nonny's looking for??

Hi Steph, do you have any fic where Sherlock doesn't agree to be John's best man? Cheers, hope you're well!!
Hey Nonny!
I've actually got a similar thread already going through the queue that was posted a few days ago here! Nothing new has come up yet, but hopefully we will get something soon!

Hi hi! Really hoping someone could help me find a fic. It’s angsty but with a happy ending, but I don’t think it’s on any of your lists if I’m not mistaken. The premise is that Sherlock confesses to John in some way, or John finds out Sherlock’s in love with him, but John truly isn’t gay. However they get into a physical relationship and along the way John realises that he loves Sherlock.
Hey Nonny!
Ahhhhhhhhhh I want to say that this is Love Is, but I'm probably wrong. Gonna rec it anyway:
Love Is by SilentAuror (E, 21,508 w., 1 Ch. || Angst, UST / URT, Post HLV, Romance) – At Mrs Hudson’s urging, Sherlock finally decides to tell John how he feels about him. Part 1 of Love Is
====
Anyone able to confirm? It's been a bit since I've read it!! I just know it IS a fic that Sherlock confesses and John initially denies Sherlock :)

do you know this fic?
a one-shot, basically sherlock communicates his love for john quite unusually. like telling him that he wants to carve out his chest and climb inside it and stay there or something. and when they cuddle sherlocks hands invade John's sleeves cause he wants to be as close as possible?
it sounds a bit brutal with the crawling inside your chest bit but ist really sweet. I think sherlock asks John like "is that not good?" and John is like "as long as you're not actually gonna do it it's ok" and they keep cuddling.
idk it was a sweet and unusual one-shot that I'd like to reread :)
Hey Lovely!
OMG THIS ONE IS DRIVING ME CRAZY because I KNOW I've read it and I thought it had "heart" in the title and I cannot find it. I am going bonkers, omg. I'm so sorry I have spent a good hour clicking on fics and thinking it's the one and it's NOT. AAAAHHH.
Someone please help us! Because I know I liked this one too! <3

So, you know how Donovan told John that someday they would be standing over a body and that Sherlock would be the one who put it there; and then of course Moriarty making everyone believe that Sherlock was a killer who only wanted to be famous for "solving" the murders.
I'm just curious if there are any fics out there where John realizes early on that in order to keep Sherlock happy and away from drugs, he needs cases to solve, so HE is the one killing people or arranging to have them killed, or committing crimes, because he loves Sherlock so much? And because Sherlock is in love with John he isn't able to deduce that John is behind everything?
I think that would be fascinating to read!
Hey Nonny!
Oh, this is an interesting concept, and sadly I don't know of any fics that meet your request criteria.
Anyone know of anything similar that Nonny would enjoy?

Johnlock fics where others are super surprised by how much Sherlock loves John and how he acts differently around him!
Pretty please??
Thanks in advance, love what you do for this fandom <333
Hey Nonny!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I try my best, LOL.
Oh gosh, ahhhhhhhhhhh hmm. I know for a FACT that I've read some, but the majority of them are escaping me. You might take joy in the fics on these lists:
Protective Sherlock
Jealous & Possessive Sherlock
Possessive Sherlock Pt 2
Possessive / Obsessive Sherlock Pt 3 
Jealous Sherlock Because John Dates a Man
Cockblocking Sherlock
Soft Sherlock
Cute-Drunk Sherlock
If anyone has anything that they'd like to suggest, please do. Problem is any fic I have are actually spread across those lists. BAH.

Hii :)
I am currently looking for a fic I read a few months ago while I wasn’t logged into my account on ao3 and now I can’t find it…
It was an alternative meeting where John was trying to get a date through a dating app and Sherlock was trying to find a serial killer called the Samson, I think.
They meet up and Sherlock thinks that John is a suspect, John thinks Sherlock is his date.
Thank you in advance!
Hey Nonny!!
AHHHHHH I have no idea which fic this is, though some details sound vaguely familiar. I'm sure I've recced it before.
Anyone able to help us out with this one??

Hi Steph, In all your infinite wisdom, can you please recommend some "There was only one bed" fics. They seem impossible to find. Thank you oh great archivist.
Hi Nonny!
OOOOF Okay so here's the deal: I have a LOT of bedsharing fics, but I don't think I've ever sat down and pulled out the "there's only one bed" fics from those lists.... I think it will take awhile, so I'm going to actually make a note of it to start a new list for that, but in the meantime, please check out all my amazing Bedsharing lists :D
Bed Sharing “Just Happens”
The Speckled Blonde / BedSharing
BedSharing Pt. 2 and Insecure Sherlock
Bed Sharing Pt. 3
Bed Sharing Pt. 4 
Bed Sharing Pt. 5
Bed Sharing Pt. 6 (Mar 2023)
Sleepy Fics (Updated Nov 2023) 
I'm comfortable saying that at LEAST half of the fics on those lists will have One Bed Only, but yeah, I don't have a specific list ready for you so I hope this will do for now!! <3
See also these lists, though, from other Lovelies:
SWISSMISSFICS:
Only one bed 
Only One Bed Part 2
ALEXXPHOENIX42:
Hot Bed sharing fics
Bed Sharing Fun
Have to Share a Hotel Room
If anyone has any, especially some more recent ones, please do add your "Only One Bed" Fic! I'll add it to my new list I'm making :)

Hi! I hope you are having/have had a great day
I would like to request your services for finding a BBC Sherlock fic. In it, at 221b, Sherlock gets very sick with like a cold or the flu. So much so that, in Sherlock's pov, he is speaking in English, but John hears another language entirely and he doesn't understand what Sherlock is saying. And Sherlock is convinced he is speaking in English. John calls Mycroft in for help
I would really appreciate it if I could be pointed in the right direction
Thanks in advance!
Hey Nonny!
OOOOOHHH I'm annoyed because I feel like I've read this one, or at least recced it before, but it's escaping me.
Anyone able to help us out??
