Adventures of Sherlock Holmes except it's a modern college au. John Watson is a medical student. Sherlock is a forensics major, but occasionally sneaks up to the cryonics facility to beat corpses. They used to share a dorm room but the college kicked them out because Sherlock kept conducting explosive experiments in the room. They now share a flat, begrudgingly. Watson keeps having to tiptoe around the flat because Sherlock has a million-dollar worth Stradivarius lying around under hordes of paper on the floor. John tries to stray Sherlock away from his caffeine addiction, and fails. Sherlock once tempted John to steal the local resident skull from the lab in order to help him get over breaking up with Mary Morstan. The professor who owned the skull is still trying to find it. Sherlock usually bribes Lestrade (police-in-training) so he can sneak into crime scenes to conduct research in forensics. Sometimes he solves the crimes. The FBI finds out about the bribery and tells him, "hey. 20-something young man over there. you don't need to bribe Lestrade anymore, we can come over to you if we find some cases difficult to solve. adiós". Sherlock drags John to every single case he's worked on, despite John complaining because 'I HAVE A THESIS DUE AT 2 AM'.
