Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*

I'll be endeavouring to read the most Fics recc'd here during the summer holiday.
But I agree, we ARE blessed.

I think we are all human and it may happen that something is recommended more than once. It surely has happened to me as well. 94 pages (and counting) are quite a lot of stuff to keep in mind. 

I'm sorry if my words offended someone, apparently they did 

The fic in question has been referred to 8 times in the last month, and the last time only one day before it was recommended as a new one.
Perhaps a glance at the previous weeks' activities or a quick search for keywords might be a good idea for people who want to bring in a new fic.

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*

I think the Johnlock fanfic masterpost thread would be really helpful. Unfortunately is has not been updated for two years since Wholocked is not here anymore. So I would be really glad if anyone would like to take on this job. This way one could check much quicker if a fic has been recommended before.

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*

I think I've recommended a story from author Saki101 before but I can't help recommending another.
I just love her work.There's such an intelligent quality to it.  She always manages to create this beautiful, poetic, languid intimacy and imagery around their relationship that just leaves me breathless. Her style may not be for everyone but it sure works for me. A lovely little jewel of a post-Reichenbach story....

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*

I've been hearing incredible things about this fic by the same author as "The Ground Beneath Your Feet."

A River Without Banks by Chryse
http://archiveofourown.org/works/3204689/chapters/6969521

It comes highly recommended but when I started it I got 9 pages in and there was this one thing that stopped me in my tracks.  I'd like to discuss it with someone who's read it before I decide if I want to finish it.

Thanks!

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*

I have just read an amazing Johnlock story that I wanted to share - and highly recommend:

A Diseased Fancy by J_Baillier

Author's summary: It has been two years since John's marriage had fallen apart and he had moved back to Baker Street. Things between him and Sherlock are still very much undefined, and John is certain that he'll have plenty of time to figure it all out. This notion proves dangerously false: strange things are set in motion when Sherlock's long-lost “acquaintance” from university appears on their doorstep and a baffling burglary case frustrates Sherlock to no end. What is behind Sherlock's black moods and dwindling health? Where is Mycroft? Why would someone steal artefacts from the British Museum that have interested nary a soul for decades?In the midst of this thickening fog stands John, who will soon have to take on an enemy much greater than even Moriarty.


This story turned out to have a much greater scope than I had ever imagined. It contains supernatural elements, greatly inspried by Lovecraft's universe. The story starts out as a romantic drama and ends as an epic horror story. It was much more than I expected, and I couldn't put it down. I read it on the lunch break at work, in the coffee break - I even stopped by the grocery store on the way home just to buy some pre-heated dinner I could eat in the car while reading some more. I just couldn't put it away!

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*

I've been subbing it since the first chapter, and the last chapter was posted a day or two ago. So I spent last night - and today - reading it. This is the third story from this author that I've read and really enjoyed, so I've started on another one of hers.
