The World in Fire and Ice by estelraca for EdosianOrchids901
Fandoms: Sherlock Holmes - Arthur Conan Doyle
22 Feb 2025

Summary
After Reichenbach, Holmes seemed his usual energetic self, working as hard as he possibly could.
Harder than he should have, and so it really was no surprise when his health suffered again. Unfortunately the bitter grand-nephew of a former client is out for revenge just when Holmes and Watson are least prepared to deal with it.

This work is complete, I never publish anything that is not complete. You will get your ending!

Life goes back to what passes for normal at 221B Baker Street.
Sherlock's back and his scars have faded.
John's still a confirmed bachelor and his nightmares have mostly ceased.

Summary
Sherlock's return from the dismantling of Moriarty's web is not what he had envisioned.
---
He is floating, heady with euphoria. His limbs are heavy – but it doesn’t matter. When awareness returns, he finds himself face-to-face with Mycroft in his usual resplendence of three-piece suit.

Summary
All John wanted was to get away from London for a few weeks. No people pointing and whispering about Sherlock Holmes when he walked past, no reporters wanting an "exclusive" about the dead detective, just some rest and relaxation in the sunshine. Then again, these holiday trips never seem to go as planned.

In Which Neither Coulson nor Sherlock are Dead (and John sort of joins the Avengers) by DullYellowEye
Fandoms: Sherlock (TV), The Avengers (2012)
03 Apr 2013
Tags
Summary
While Coulson's recovering from being stabbed in the chest by a magical spear, Fury is rapidly running out of Agents willing to play babysitter for the newly founded Avengers. So he calls in Captain John Watson, late of the British Royal Army, and blogger and best friend to the infamously antisocial (presumably deceased) Sherlock Holmes. In hindsight he's not sure if this was a good call or a very, very bad one.
Post-Reichenbach-reunion combined with Coulson-lives, partly because I like looking at cliches from different fandoms, sticking them in one fic and going "now kiss!". Mostly because has anyone else noticed how similar John Watson and Phil Coulson are?

Summary
It was only once Watson began sorting through his belongings that he realized this may not have been the best time. This needed to be done, certainly. Since moving back into Baker Street with Holmes, Watson had been largely living surrounded by boxes. He really ought to unpack, to settle in properly.
Today had been an unwise time to do so, on multiple levels. And now, unfortunately, he was rather stuck.

Summary
Sherlock is dead, but John still sees him everywhere. When John is awake, Sherlock is in the back of his head; when he's asleep, he appears in his dreams. Although the nightmares of his fall prevail at first, the atmosphere of his dreams changes eventually, revealing a part of Sherlock John wishes he'd been able to explore when he was still alive.
When he's not touching John in his dreams, he appears out of nowhere in his daily routine, during his dates with Mary, and even when they're in bed together. As nice as it is to still be surrounded by him, he just never shuts up.

Summary
For this prompt: Can I get some fic of John and Sherlock just kissing? Maybe a while after The Reunion, and they've settled back into a routine, and John's just happy to sit and appreciate and get the same vibes right back from Sherlock.
Both men were smothered by anguish not so very long ago. But in each other’s arms they dilute that thick, constricting grief, disperse it with eager mouths and comforting hands...

Summary
“Bloody fuck, Sherlock,” John stated, huffing out a shocked laugh, “You're making it sound like you're going to murder me,” Sherlock hummed.
“Take you apart, surely. But harm you? Definitely out of the question.”
~~~~
All Sherlock wants to do is go home to his doctor and beg for his forgiveness. His own stubbornness keeps him away until seeing John in his head isn't enough anymore. No mind palace replica can surpass the real thing. But can he tell what is truly real anymore?AKA the fic that was supposed to be short and sweet, then turned into an angsty monster.
