Isn't a Santa Fic due today?

It seems I've been spoiling you by posting the majority of the other fics quite early (before going to work, that is). Which isn't necessarily doable at the weekends, though, since my family and pet demand attention as well.
The fic is up now.

I apologise to you Kerkerian for my insensitiveness. It seems, as you said, I have been spoilt and, have been checking every now and then if the story is up. The time difference also gave me wrong notion.

Never mind!

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013

Wow, this story is so incredible great!  It is really the best thing I could expect for my prompt! Thank you so much, dearest anonymous author!

As holmes23 said, there are many great lines in this one but I also especially liked the reference to the shirt :D and the twist in the end.

Oh, and "people are peopling" - hilarious!

Sherlock and John Texting While Drunk

I read this at 4AM and I pleased to say that I giggled like a maniac into my lemon-ginger green tea. Hilarious! I think my favorite thing is Sherlock even "warning" John he's probably going to get locked out of the building (the question about hypothermia)--really, just brilliant!  (Had to add: That was the most perfect get back I've ever seen :D)

I am in awe to be surrounded by such creative writers! We should find a reason to do these all the time, lol!

Why didn't I realize this myself? *facepalm* you are so right and what a brilliant idea!

Oh, that was fun! I'm afraid we'll never see Sherlock getting drunk, but after this fic I'd reeeaaally love to! And the experiment with jam and John's jumper sounds... fascinating.

Very good one. Made me smile a lot. And I would love to see the vid AND the revenge experiment.

Oh, that was lovely. Made my Sunday. I could imagine them so well holding hands on the plane, surrounded by homophobic stewards.

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013

Dear anonymous author, thank you sooooo much for this wonderful fluff! You probably have cursed me for not being anymore specific with my prompt, but I'm sure you couldn't have done a better job even if I had given you a more detailed wish. 
Absolutely love it! I especially love wicked little Sherlock... he needs to hold hands with John on a plane, yeah, right. The idea of them just holding hands, on the plane and in bed, is ever so sweet...
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013

Problem!

Hi guys, due to a rather sudden and somewhat unexpected change in our family Christmas schedule, I won't be able to post stories after Dec. 22.

Which means that there are three stories (if I got all by then) will either have to wait until the new year, or someone else might have to fill in for me. I'm truly and very sorry about that, I hadn't expected not to be in reach of the internet for the holidays.

If anyone has got the spare time and could post the last three stories, I'd be grateful. I'd send the files to the respective person so they'd still be anonymous, and also the list which reveals who wrote what (to be posted on Boxing Day, maybe).
Please give me a shout if you're interested.

Thank you and, once again, I'm sorry about that.

Problem solved!

I've had several PM's about the issue, wow. Thank you so much guys, I'll answer you when I get back home this afternoon. Right now I've got to get to work, but let me just say how relieved I am! Thank you, again!

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013

"What it Means to be Family"

That was a good one. I like Sherlock/Lestrade fics and their relationship here is moving and convincingly told. I can well imagine this as a prequel to the Sherlock we know today. We only get a few hints about their past in the series and what you make of them is really good.

Re: Secret Santa Fic Exchange 2013

"What it Means to be Family"

Dear unknown author,
his one left me impressed once more. I love the beginning that reminds me of well-writien short stories, where you have to read for a while to figure out what the story is about (and in this case when it takes place).
And I definitely love that you chose Lestrade and Sherlock to write about family issues. You portraited the relationship between the two of them very vividly, it would make for an interesting longer fic.
Very well done!!!
