Written for this promt on the kinkmeme: "After Mary's death, John moves back into Baker Street, but is still upset at the loss of his wife and child. Eventually, he and Sherlock may stumble into a sort of relationship, but it's more physical than anything and they don't talk about it.
They especially don't talk during sex.
If they are going to have sex, Sherlock notices the signs hours beforehand, and he prepares carefully. The lights are off, they're under the covers, he prepares himself using lots of lube so he can make it feel as much like a woman as he can, and he doesn't let himself make any noise so that, if John wishes, he can pretend that he's still with Mary."

Saving Sherlock Holmes
Summary: Sherlock Holmes, schoolboy. Yeah, that basically sums it up.
Rating/Warnings: Mature
A Cure for Boredom

Summary: Teaching John to observe seems to be a losing battle, but when Sherlock falls ill and submits himself to John's care, will he realise that there is more to life than the science of deduction? Meanwhile, there is a murder to solve, and John must try and convince Sherlock not to sacrifice his own health for the sake of the case. Eventual John/Sherlock Hurt/Comfort case fic.

However, with a criminal mastermind on the loose, John's phone connection may be the only thing that can save them both.
Rating/Warnings: Teen +
The Thing Is
Summary: The problem with living with Sherlock, John thought, was that you never, never, ever knew the significance of anything. Like your flatmate's nose buried in your hair. Whilst you're in bed.

Give Me The Quiet Things
Summary: John had never been afraid of asking "What's the worst that can happen?" He was pretty sure he'd already seen it. And been very wrong.
Rating/Warnings: NC-17
Multiply (the sum of our parts)
Summary: After Reichenbach and in order to 1) Keep Sherlock alive, 2) Keep John alive and 3) Get Sherlock home to England as soon as possible, Mycroft devises a plan that will not only incentivise John's continued sanity and survival but force Sherlock to come running. It is a perfect plan, though perhaps less than ethically sound. He has no doubts that using frozen samples of your younger brother's sperm to create children for his husband to care for falls deeply within the realm of socially unacceptable behaviour, but it is efficient, and that is what matters most.
Rating/Warnings: Mature
Journey's End
Summary: (Canon, not BBC Sherlock) Set during the Hiatus, looking at what happened between the events in The Final Problem and those in The Adventure of the Empty House. Mentions FINA and EMPT, but also many references to most of the stories in the Adventures and Memoirs collections.

Rating/Warnings: Mature - Non-con drug use, violence
Skeleton Key
Summary: Sherlock Holmes is anything but predictable; a fact that John has grown used to over the year they have known each other. However, nothing could prepare him for his reaction to Sherlock's mysterious decision to pierce his tongue. (Eventual John/Sherlock)
Rating/Warnings: Explicit
Ten Days
Summary: Sherlock Holmes has been dead for forty months, and John is at last beginning to live his life again. But just when he is beginning to believe that he might be happy, his world crashes back down around him. John is named a missing person. Someone is pointing DI Lestrade in the wrong direction. And as the days pass, his situation only grows more dire. It seems like the disappearance of his best friend is the only thing that can bring Sherlock Holmes back from the dead.
Rating/Warnings: Explicit. Warnings: Torture

Summary: A year and a half post-Reichenbach, a damaged Sherlock Holmes returns to Baker Street. But everything's changed, leaving the friendship between Sherlock and John tense and uncertain. While struggling to adjust, Sherlock, John, and Mary Morstan find themselves on a case involving betrayal, deception, and tests of friendship. But will it make their bonds stronger or tear them apart? And will it matter if Sherlock's demons pull him under first? An incredibly angst-filled adaptation of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle novel. Essentially designed as a theoretical 'next episode' of the show.?
Rating/Warnings: Teen +
The Best of Times
Summary: Struggling to cope with life after Reichenbach, John is gravely injured during a vicious, apparently motiveless street attack. Convalescing, on Mycroft’s invitation, at the Holmes family seat, John encounters someone entirely unexpected and uncovers an intriguing seventeen year-old mystery.

Summary: Even if this was legal, even if there was nothing technically wrong with what he was doing he knew that if he were caught, or if he were seen by someone he knew, or if he were found out in any way the shame would never, ever die.

Some Things Never Change
Summary: All those light years away and the Admiral could still get under his skin. He flipped over to his back again and noted as the time projector flipped numbers across the wall as a reminder. He sat up on the mattress and started to button up his shirt. His fingers stopped moving almost before they started. Why the hell would it even matter anyway? No one in their right mind would ever consent to being his partner, and that included the Burskins.

He very carefully controls his breathing but he can tell, even from this distance, that this newcomer noted the reaction.

Mike steps up and looks at the pitiful creature in front of them. He recognizes a boy he hasn’t seen in near ten years.

Eventual Johnlock, Post-Reichenbach, Mature rating.
Rating/Warnings: Explicit
Midnight Blue Serenity

It was unbelievable, like stepping into an alternative universe, and John couldn't stop staring.” When Sherlock infiltrates a club in order to track down a serial killer, his altered appearance is enough to make John question his assumption that Sherlock is beyond his reach. However, is he the only one who appreciates his flatmate's charms, or is Sherlock at risk of becoming the next victim?

Sherlock opened his eyes at that. “As a doctor, it should be readily apparent to you that there is only a partial body in our refrigerator. Popular horror stories notwithstanding, it’s rare for an entire corpse to fit into one this size. I had to cut it up into several parts to pack it in, and there is still only seven eighths of it there.”
John stared at the ceiling. “That’s... not better.”

And the truth is: John and Mary don't see until it may be too damned late.

Stag Night for Two
Summary: Begins with the stag night scene in The Sign of Three. John grabbing Sherlock's knee leads to much more. Incorporates elements from His Last Vow now, as well, and has kind of gone totally off the canon rails. In the best way, I hope.
Lots of lovey, porny goodness, and later some good violence and villains.
