Title: The Reverse Side of Fascination
Fandom: Sherlock BBC
Characters/Pairings: Harry Watson, Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, pre-Sherlock/John
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 5,175
Disclaimer: This is a transformative work of the BBC’s Sherlock, which itself is a transformative work. Fun, not profit!
Warnings: Alcoholism, somewhat creepy tattoos
Notes: Originally wrote this over a year ago, got distracted by robots, didn't finish it, have now decided it's done. Gotta post it before Harry shows up in canon and it gets jossed. :P Title from this Schopenhauer quote: “Boredom is just the reverse side of fascination: both depend on being outside rather than inside a situation, and one leads to the other.” Thanks to call_me_ishmael for the beta.
Summary: Harry Watson is used to not knowing why she does things. Inviting Sherlock Holmes out to lunch is still one of her more baffling whims, but it's also one of her best.



( She doesn't normally answer calls from withheld phone numbers.... )

Title: The Quantum Mechanics of Lost Socks (and Other Unsolved Mysteries)
Fandom: Sherlock BBC
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock&John
Rating: PG
Word count: 3,000
Disclaimer: This is a transformative work of the BBC’s Sherlock, which itself is a transformative work. For fun, not profit!
Warnings: None
Notes: This contains several images. They should work all right for screenreaders etc, but let me know if they don’t or if they aren’t displaying for some reason. If you find them hard to read just mouseover for text. Title inspired by Laundry: A Quantum Mechanical Approach, by Brian J. Reardon, which I don’t really understand but by which I am greatly amused. Beta by call_me_ishmael, thank you!
Summary: Sherlock loses his socks, takes a nap, eats some biscuits, and leaves a mystery unsolved.

Title: Stay awake, don’t rest your head
Fandom: Sherlock BBC
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock, John
Rating: PG
Word count: 1,247
Disclaimer: This is a transformative work of the BBC’s Sherlock, which itself is a transformative work. Not making any money here.
Warnings: Sherlock is a bit of a creeper.
Notes: Written in one sitting. I don’t even know. And I borrowed the title from a Mary Poppins song. I really don’t know. Beta by miss_sabre. Also available in podfic form, read by evil_whimsey.
Summary: The first time John falls asleep on the sofa while Sherlock is in the room, he realises exactly why no one has ever trusted him enough to want to sleep in his presence.
