BBC Sherlock fics, here we go:

*Easier With You - finlinesatllite

3k, 1/1, Johnlock, PTSD, Post Reich, Hurt/Comfort

In the weeks after he was discharged, Sherlock was still different. He trembled more, he winced more, and every time there was a loud noise he flinched and braced himself against whatever furniture he was standing near. And during the slow, mournful melodies played on the violin, sometimes John was forced to stop whatever he was doing, his heart sinking in his chest as Sherlock's emotional and physical agony filtered out into the air.

24k, 4/4, Victor Trevor/Sherlock Holmes, Ambiguously Happy Ending, Post Reich, Sherlock centric

He remembers night after night spent shivering in the dark, trying desperately to hold the pieces of his flesh together, terrified to utter a single word in case they heard him. He’d sworn to himself then that they’d never make him talk, not for anything.

Mycroft isn't sure at all about that.

Christmas Fics!

5687 (Approximately) by prettysailorsoldier

When John's leave request for Christmas is denied, Sherlock is nothing short of devastated, not that he's letting it show. The holiday season now something he's just waiting to end, Sherlock doesn't think anything can possibly make it worse. That is, until he realizes no one in his life believes his army "boyfriend" is even real, but, luckily, everyone is in for a surprise.

All I Want For Christmas by Mssmithlove

Taking Sherlock's platonic university flatmate home with him for Christmas can be a tricky business. Especially when he wishes their relationship wasn't platonic at all.

John Watson's Twelve Days of Christmas by earlgreytea68

It's the holiday season. John Watson needs money. Sherlock Holmes needs something else.

Need vs. Want by Goddess_of_the_Night

Sherlock needs John to pretend to be his boyfriend for Christmas. John has always preferred to be wanted rather than needed, but there's some disagreement between them on the actual difference.

Dropping the Act by jadztone

Sherlock and John are quite happy living together with Rosie in Baker St. They might be even happier if they didn’t act towards each other like their love is only platonic. Mycroft brings troubling news in the form of Mary’s parents wanting to know just what their grandchild’s home life is like. The boys decide to spend Christmas pretending like they are in love in order to seem more like a "normal" family. It's easy enough to pretend when all you're doing is dropping the act.

Tomorrow by Berty

The night before they travel to Dorset to spend Christmas with Sherlock's parents and John's wife, 221 Baker Street is peaceful with the smell of baking, flickering candles and presents under the tree. But Father Christmas can't be relied upon to bring the boys their heart's desires. Just as well Mrs Hudson - who is NOT a fairy godmother OR their housekeeper, thank you very much - is so good at her job.

Untitled Christmas Goose Game by meansgirl (Mystrade)

Greg should have known better than to say the phrase ‘I’ll owe you one,’ to Sherlock Holmes. This was his own fault, really. After four years, he really ought to have learned by now. But Greg had been tired and desperate and Sherlock had been acting like a stroppy child. The words had slipped out and then Greg had immediately forgotten them. 

In which Greg agrees to pose as Sherlock's boyfriend at Christmas, finally meets the invisible Mycroft Holmes, catches feelings, and has a very happy holiday indeed.

I wish you a very happy Christmas!

First time posting here,joined only for Johnlock ! This show and now the fandom has helped me navigate rough 6 years of my life,really.

Wanted to know if you have fics where Mycroft pairs our two beloved gents and helps them get together. I love Mark Gatiss's Mycroft and can absolutely see him doing something like this.

Hey Lovely!

Welcome!! Glad you're enjoying your time here!!

I DO have some fics, check these out:

Matchmaker Mycroft

Mycroft Flirts With John

It could also be argued the fics on these lists have a Mycroft playing a big role in them getting together, but mostly it's just Myc is heavily featured in these fics:

Mycroft Plays a Role in This Fic

Mycroft Plays a Role Pt. 2

Mycroft Plays a Role Pt. 3

If you haven't started reading @eternallaughter 's Locum Tenens yet and have any interest in mind games, pining, and good writing, you are sleeping, by the way.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/55137679/chapters/139813867

Mycwill where they each are serving as a stand in for their brothers (Sherlock, Albert). It's still in the tense, build-up/negotiation stage but it is so delicious.

Anyway. Just so you know.

long mystrade fic recs

I love Mystrade, so here are some of my favorite fanfics. These are all medium or long and all are complete. They are masterpieces with much angst and only the happiest of endings. I highly recommend checking out all of these authors’ other works. Some may be locked to unregistered archive users.

Lullabye by Mottlemoth | E, 20k, Complete | Soulmates Twice a year—on your birthday and theirs—you can hear your soulmate's voice throughout the night. It gives each fated pair a chance to talk and bond before they meet. Sharing names, locations or other identifying details is unwise. It's rumored that if you try it, even in hints, the connection will be severed and you'll never find each other. Today is Mycroft Holmes's 38th birthday. He and his soulmate have had two nights together a year for the last two decades, never even knowing each other's names. But it's getting harder and harder to keep saying goodbye.

Under the Rose by Mottlemoth | E, 125k, Complete | Past Trauma, Secret Relationship It's no surprise for Greg Lestrade to discover that, when it comes to relationships, Mycroft Holmes doesn't really do things like other people. Mycroft's lack of experience and intense need for privacy will take some special care—but that's fine. Greg's always been a patient man.

End Game by Mottlemoth | E, 160k, Complete | Sex Holiday, Friends with Benefits to Lovers Mycroft has a problem. After a drunken New Year's Eve at Baker Street gets out of hand, this preoccupation with Greg Lestrade doesn't seem to be going away. He makes Greg an irresistible offer: seven days alone together in paradise, to be with each other and exhaust the craving. Sadly for Mycroft, Greg comes with irresistible offers of his own—and seven days in paradise might not be enough.

A Christmas Carol by Mottlemoth | G, 40k, Complete | Post Break-Up, Reuniting "All lives end... all hearts are broken." Mycroft Holmes never needed a reason to loathe Christmas—but getting dumped by the love of his life certainly did the trick. It's been a year since Mycroft lost the man he adored, and with Christmas Eve fast approaching, he's counting down the hours until all this festive lunacy is over. Sadly for Mycroft, fate has other plans. It's going to take three ghosts to show him the error of his ways. But can he make amends in time? Or will he prove to himself, once and for all, that caring is not an advantage?

Portrait of a London Vampire by Vulpesmellifera | E, 30k, Complete | Vampires, Hurt/Comfort Struggling artist Greg Lestrade lands his big break—representation by one of the most prestigious London art galleries. When his newfound status hooks an attractive and puzzling patron, dangerous desire and a daunting dilemma spins Greg about in a troubling fog. To complicate matters, someone is brutalising his neighbours, leaving behind gutted bodies, faces frozen in a rictus of fear. Grief stirs old, painful memories, wrapping Greg in a sticky web of want and deceit. At the web's edge, the East London Butcher lurks.

Written in Skin by Vulpesmellifera | M, 25k, Complete | Soulmates, Blind Greg Mycroft Holmes lives a quiet, steady life. He works. He paints. He takes walks. It’s what he does to ignore the flurry of partnering around him. Whether it’s the biological drive to mash two bodies together, or the religious dictum of the salvation in finding one’s Devotee, it’s not for him. It won't ever be for him. Until the day he meets a blind man in the park. The world will never be the same.

All Else Above by Meansgirl | E, 140k, Complete | First Time, Sex Work, Family Trauma Mycroft Holmes' life isn't going according to plan, and there is little he can do about it. His career is a mess, his house is a shrine, and he can't even manage to get laid. In fact, he's never quite figured that last thing out. Maybe it's time. Perhaps, if he could work out how to have a relationship, he could work out the rest. Enter Greg Lestrade, who comes highly recommended by Mycroft's shark-like coworker and sometimes-friend, Alicia. Mycroft, under the impression he is going to see a counselor, is shocked to realize he has been misled.

If You Ever Hunger, Hunger for Me by Meansgirl | E, 115k, Complete | Age Gap, Kinky with Heart Greg notices the kid watching him, and for a moment he fantasizes about watching back, doing the old once-over and eyebrow quirk. Do people still cruise like that? AU with a younger Mycroft, who can't stop watching the silver fox at the pub.

If That’s All There Is by Meansgirl | E, 55k, Complete | Depression, Family Trauma The slow-motion breakdown and hard-fought redemption of Mycroft Holmes.

Fic Rec Friday

This week, I'm recommending "The Better Part of Valour" by rachelindeed.  It's a fix-it fic for "The Greek Interpreter" (and maybe some other bits of canon), told from Mr. Melas's point of view.  The author does a great job with the characterizations of both Holmes brothers and Dr. Watson.  Includes Holmes/Watson as part of the setting.

The Better Part of Valour Content rating T, No archive warnings apply, 7739 words, complete Summary: "Mr Melas considers himself a coward, but more than one man's courage comes with complicated cracks." https://archiveofourown.org/works/14869094

Mycroft Fic Rec - Seduction!

This is total crack. A 5+1 where Mycroft... well, let's let the author tell you... "has an unusual hobby: Seducing everyone in Sherlock's life. Because he's just that clever and it annoys his brother."

He does seem to be a very giving lover, though, as one would expect from one of the world's most observant men.

So I love crossover fics and I was curious to see more and decided to sort them by kudos and see what pops up

Was not expecting the second fic to be a Mycroft Holmes/Harry Potter fic but honestly…. It kinda slaps! I mean, it does have 21,000 kudos, so it has to, but if you haven’t read it please go read it because it is so good.

EVEN MORE OF AMY'S DAILY FIC RECS

A too long list for the avid BBC Sherlock fic reader

*Friday - oohmo

12k, 5/5, Johnlock, Rosamund Mary Watson, Parentlock

On a beautiful Friday morning, Sherlock takes Rosamund Watson to school. However, young Rosie has been keeping a secret from him and John. The secret is soon discovered by a phone call, which requires Sherlock and John to come to the rescue for their little girl.

*Take Me Dancing (Again) - aquileaofthelonelymountain

11k, 1/1, Johnlock, Rosamund Mary Watson, Parentlock, Angst, H/C

“Sherlock”, Greg began. The grin faded from the detective’s face from one moment to the next; he was at once aware that something was wrong. “I’m here because … I have to tell you something.” Sherlock turned to face Greg. His posture was bolt upright, his hands were balled into fists at his side. He looked like he expected to be punched, and Greg wondered how much he had already deduced from the little he had said. “There has been a robbery”, Greg began as gently as he could. “John was injured. He’s in hospital.”

*Sex Ed on the Fly - ShirleyCarton

2k, 1/1, Johnlock, Parentlock, Not inapropiate

When John’s five-year-old daughter walks in on them and asks them what they’re doing, John is mortified to the depth of his bones. Sherlock, however, calmly decides to answer her honestly – to John’s absolute astonishment. But within ten minutes, his lover has enlightened Chloe more than could be said about any sex ed he’d ever had, in a way that puts her mind at ease and gives her a basic but important understanding of what love is all about.

*A Waste of Breath - Chryse

Reread, 95k, 25/25, DubCon, Angst, Johnlock, Sebastian Moran, Hurt/Comfort, TW APPLY

John had always assumed Sherlock was uninterested, untouchable, married to his work. He was wrong on all counts. But when Sherlock embarks on a relationship, John worries that he is in over his head...and this time he might be right.

*Longing - belovedmuerto

3k, 1/1, Sherlock Holmes & John Watson, Pinning

Sherlock Holmes longs.

*An Unexpected Coupling - fantasybean

Reread, 9k, 1/1, Abusive John, Unhealthy Relationship, ANGST, Consent Issues, Miscommunication

“I’m not gay,” John said into the darkness.    Sherlock rolled over, facing away from him. The skin of his cleft slid uncomfortably against itself as he moved, the lubricant becoming tacky as it began to dry. He re-adjusted the pillow under his head. “I know.” 

*I meant to say always - OnceSherlock

8k, 1/1, Johnlock, Fake Marriage, Rosamund Mary Watson, Fluff, First Kiss, Friends to Lovers, Parentlock

“It means that you can make a wish,” he said to Rosie. She looked at him with wide eyes. “And what can I wish for?” “Anything you want. And if you truly believe in it, it will come true.” “Then I know how to use my wish,” Rosie said, looking from John to Sherlock and back with a grin. Sherlock’s brows furrowed and for a moment John felt like he was missing something of importance. Rosie closed her eyes, her lips moving slightly as she uttered her wish. She opened them again as John leaned closer to her. “What did you wish for, love?” Rosie made sure that Sherlock was listening before whispering into John’s ear. “I wished for you and Papa to be married.”

*A Proper Gift - hungryforpowernotfood

1k, 1/1, Reread, Autistic Sherlock, John Watson, Gift Giving

Sherlock sees a rock that reminds him of John and gives it to him.

*The Dilemma of the Watson Bedroom - jemariel

Sherlock hates the name Rosamund. John wanted to call her Katherine. Sherlock thinks it suits her. Meanwhile, he and John are orbiting ever closer together. Sherlock tries not to wonder how long he will have them here, all three of them together in 221B. 

*Spectral Evidence - earlgreytea68

4k, 1/1, Johnlock, Mike Stamford, Halloween

It's 1692 in Salem, Massachusetts, and it kind of makes sense the townspeople think Sherlock Holmes is a witch.

*Love is the Rhythm - eyeus

4k, 1/1, Magical Realism, Johnlock, Mycroft Holmes

Love is a dangerous disadvantage for the Holmes family, immortals until they’ve given their heart to someone else. Nevertheless, it’s not like Sherlock planned to lose his to John.

*Climbing into Chairs - paceprompting

10k, 6/6, Johnlock, Rosamund Mary Watson, Parentlock, PTSD, Domestic Fluff

When John returned to Baker Street, this time with his daughter, he didn't expect Sherlock to fall so easily into the role of co-parent.

*Without A Word - Salambo06

26k, 9/9, Johnlock, First Time, First Kiss, Fluff

After being punched in the face, Sherlock has his jaw wired shut. Unable to speak anymore, they have to learn how to communicate with each other in other ways.

*A Brief Account of Life with Zombies - silverpard

2k, 1/1, Humor, Crack, Zombies, Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Greg Lestrade, Epistolary

Sherlock thinks it's all a bit of a nuisance, John is having the time of his life, and Mycroft is Not Impressed. With anything, but mostly his minions' inability to provide a good cup of tea.

*How It All Started - round_robin

4k, 1/1, Johnlock, Civil Partnership, Greg Lestrade, First Time

"In your household, you are a source of worry. You are Too Much To Handle. You are not actually on drugs (yet), merely somewhat sleepless, and as a result alternatively hyperactive and dazed. But one side effect of not being able to sleep is that the hours in a day will double. And these hours must be filled. Last night, you studied anatomy, and you thought briefly that you could be a surgeon. The human body, you thought, is marvelous-- all that fine tuned machinery, and yet that relative sturdiness, that resilience. You learned the bones of your hands and feet yesterday, and they were so beautifully assembled, scaphoid-lunate-pisiform--"

Fic Back Friday

in the Before Times, an internet friend flew across an ocean and hung out with me for a week and introduced me to this fic. "I don't know if you're into Sherlock," she said, "and it's a weird-ass pairing, but this fic is SO GOOD." And it is. I don't GO to the Sherlock fandom, and yet - EXCULTUS by Mottlemoth is OUTSTANDING and is one of the few fanfics I have on my kindle. It's amazing.
