Summary: The problem, or, from a different perspective, the solution, is John’s drinking.
Haven't read it yet
Sounds promising! 
This one is wonderful and heartbreaking and I wonder why I did not find it earlier:
Ink Your Name Across My Heart[/url] (58019 words) by [url=]prettyvk
Chapters: 21/21
Fandom: Sherlock (TV)
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson
Characters: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Mycroft Holmes, Mary Morstan, Greg Lestrade
Additional Tags: Post The Reichenbach Fall, Amnesia, Slash, Angst
Series: Part 1 of Ink Your Name 'verse
Summary:
The metaphor is imperfect but still workable. If my long term memory is a hard drive, then my short term memory is RAM. The hard drive became read-only following the illness. New data is stored in RAM and can be used while I remain awake. Going to sleep – ‘turning off’ – wipes the RAM, returning the system to what it was prior to the illness.
THIS is the most beautiful fic I have read in a long while. (And thanks again for recommending it first place, Susi.) 
It is heart-breakingly sad and romantic and hopefull, all at the same time.

Heads up.

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*
Oh, it's so hard to catch up with Silent Auror's speed 
I know this here should rather go to the round table, but I think I will put it here for content reasons:

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*
This is hilarious - although I would like to put in a good word for "penis". One of our favourite authors - yes, the one you just recommended, tonnaree - uses it quite often.

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*
Good to be reminded, though. I'm considering trying my hand on creating a Johnlock-fic, so good to keep in mind what I should stay away from.

Yes, better take care good of that, Vhanja 
Actually, I'm rather glad that most of the fics recommended here probably wouldn't make it for BINGO

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*
That was the best jokey thing I saw this month! I laughed my ass off.
Seriously, someone should write a fanfic and creatively use all those things mentioned within the text. It would be hilarious to read.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

I would love to read that, too! (I guess something like this already exists on AO3)

Beat me to it! I was going to suggest the same thing.

Doing the bingo?
My next read would be Yellow Poppies, but I would find myself a worse one for bingo.
