Johnlock comes in a rainbow of shades and colors.

Lilythiell · April 6, 2016 10:08 pm

And however it comes (pun intended), it is Johnlock.

Do you think so? It's a Johnlock fic, so this is the right thread for it, I'd say.

I can't remember the series but the summary mentions sex and a kiss ... Sounds fine to me. :-)

Yeah, the description sounded as though it was at least pre-slash, so it belongs here.

I would like to recommend this fic by Chryse, one of my favourite authors. Based on a clever idea, both heartbreaking and sexy. And also for people who prefer a not too villainous Mary.

Very glad to hear that. Chryse is an excellent writer.

Vhanja · April 7, 2016 2:48 pm

Just finished TGBYF myself. Very heartbreaking, but great read. Some real Sherlock whump. (Perhaps also worth mentioning that it contains some past reference to what I would consider dub-con, considering I know some readers might be sensitive to such subjects).

This lovely young lady was at 221b Con socializing and promoting her book. I'm reading it now and it is hot as 7 hells. That is if you like explicit Victorian Johnlock BDSM smut. You can get the Kindle version for only $3!!

Compound a Felony: A Queer Affair of Sherlock Holmes by Elinor Gray (Author)

Consulting detective Sherlock Holmes is a veritable whirlwind of intellect and perception, tearing through the fog of intrigue and criminal activity with tremendous force. But behind the locked sitting room door at 221B Baker Street, his biographer and intimate companion, ex-army doctor John Watson, holds the reins. Elinor Gray is re-imagining the best-loved, essential classics of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle through an erotic lens of domination and submission. As longtime fans have often identified, Holmes and Watson share an undeniable chemistry. Compound a Felony: A Queer Affair of Sherlock Holmes sheds light on their potential relationship, from wild passion to absolute control. Devoted fans of the Sherlock Holmes canon and newcomers alike will find unbound levels of secrecy, suspense, pain, and reward. This book is intended for mature audiences.

I just finished it, too. It's worth reading, just to see her Mycroft in action. Lovely characters all around, much more satisfying than the show, lol. I had a bit of a problem with her St. Mary (hear the sarcasm), but that's just me. I would definitely rec this one too! Thanks Susie.

Cold Snap by MirithGriffin

Summary: "The Mayo Clinic prescription for hypothermia is this: Tea. Blanket fort. Sex. All right, it doesn't come right out and say that on the website. But Sherlock can read between the lines."

4795 words.

Explicit, hilarious and hot indeed - even with the given topic

Lilythiell · April 9, 2016 5:12 pm

Oh yes, read that one!
It was hot indeed!
A short and intense story

Harriet · April 9, 2016 5:29 pm

She also wrote some early Victorianlock, but I haven't read any of them yet. Could be promising.

Also another one, XO, by her with the tags

Aliens Make Them Do It Johnlock - Freeform Blackcurrant Jelly Bed Consent Issues Sentient Lava Lamps Sex Tips from Dr. John H. Watson RAMC Pandas Opinion is divided as to whether this is crack See if this reminds you of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson floating in space on a bed handcuffed to one another Or not Alternate Universe - Science Fiction

which is still WIP but I put it on my waiting list because she seems good with bizarre humour

Ha, just started reading this one - I had come across it previously, but was not too enthusiastic about the tags. And yet. It is very funny! Hot as well, I suppose, in a way, but give me a minute I'm only on chapter 2

Harriet · April 9, 2016 8:52 pm

LOL, Lily, how voracious!!!

EDIT: Goodness, Chapter One!

And it certainly does not stop here. Me likey a lot. I'm glad I started reading it despite my initial...reluctance to it. I'm having a nice time reading

(but that's not helping out much with the other things I'm reading at the same freaking time. I need something like 72 hours in a day. Or overcome my ADD-ness)

Harriet · April 9, 2016 9:48 pm

But she's a slow updater ... anyway, I want that one, too!

Edit: Update - this fic is not good for me

The series of very nice and hot Johnlock tales based on the Victorian ACD canon. It´s called "The Dispatch Box" because the single tales are supposed to be the contents of a dispatch box of Dr. Watson discovered in a hidden compartment:

Quite sweet, sexy and easy to read.

Harriet · April 25, 2016 9:14 pm

After reading more fics by MirithGriffin, I can really recommend that writer. She's funny, smart and a gifted writer. Loved her Victorian series, too!

Sounds great. And I am sure the word "shag" refers exclusively to tobacco.
