53. “Who crawls through someone’s window at 4am to go for ice cream?!”
51. “What the hell are you wearing?”
Greg woke with a start at the noise. He sat up and realized Mycroft Holmes had just rolled through his window, wearing little more than, well, glitter. “What the hell are you wearing?” Asked Greg.
“It was a party,” said Mycroft, clearly more than a bit drunk. “I wanted ice cream, but I can’t drive.”
Greg looked at the clock. “Who crawls through someone’s window at 4am to go for ice cream?!”
“Please Greg? I’ll make sure you pass your chemistry exam.” Mycroft gave him an attempt at a winning smile.
“If I was a more vicious boyfriend I’d take pictures right now for blackmail later,” said Greg fondly.
“But then I’d have to confiscate your phone,” said Mycroft. “Kiss?”
Greg sighed and kissed him. “Come on Sparkles, shower first, then we’ll see about ice cream.”
John got up and paced one more time, not that there was any easy way out of here. The old well walls were mossy and damp even if, thankfully there wasn’t much water left.
And of course there was no mobile signal.
“Forty three,” said Sherlock.
John looked at him. “What?”
“You’ve paced the space 43 times. Find anything new?” Sherlock was perched on a rock, hands steepeled at his mouth. At least the cut on his forehead had stopped bleeding.
“No, Sherlock, I haven’t.” John sighed and leaned against the damp wall. The sun was setting and he wondered just how dark it would get in here.
Sherlock lapsed into silence for a few minutes before speaking again. “Tell me a secret, John.”
John blinked. “What?”
“We may as well pass the time.”
John ran a hand through his hair. “Uh, I don’t know. Why don’t you go first?”
Sherlock stood and walked over to him, crowding John against the stone. John swallowed. “Sherlock?”
“This stone above your head is loose. I may be able to climb.”
John let out a breath. “And maybe break your neck this time. Just wait, if there isn’t help by morning, then I’l let you.”
“Fine.” Sherlock tucked John under the Belstaff. “But there’s no reason for you to freeze.”
“We shouldn’t be doing this,” panted John as Sherlock worked his pants open.
“So?” Asked Sherlock, dipping his hands into John’s pants.
John laughed against his lips. “We’re in a cab, drunk, and I’m getting married tomorrow.”
“Cabbie doesn’t care,” said Sherlock, slipping his tongue into John’s mouth.
John groaned.
The cab came to a stop. “We’re here,” she said. “Gents might want to get out.”
Sherlock tucked John away. “Come on.”
John giggled again and followed him. As it turned out, they didn’t make it up the stairs.
80. “How can you think I’m anything but hopelessly in love with you?” Destiel
Cas and Dean fought for their lives, back to back, ground slick with blood. Dean grunted as someone got in a lucky hit. Cas was there in an instant, dispatching the last of their foes. He caught Dean as he sagged.
“Dean,” he said.
The hunter smiled up at him, despite the pain. “Glad you’re here.”
Castiel touched the wound to heal it. “Of course I’m here.”
“Why?” asked Dean as Cas brought his head low.
“Why? How can you think I’m anything but hopelessly in love with you?”
88. “Don’t panic but I think we might have accidentally gotten married…” Jack/Ten
“There you are,” said Jack as the Doctor came around slowly.
He rubbed his head. “What happened.”
“Well, don’t panic, but I think we might have accidently got married…” said Jack.
The Doctor sat up too fast, groaned and put his head between his knees. “That doesn’t explain the headache.”
“These people have a ceremony. There was a lot of liquor involved. Which is why I think we both agreed in the first place.”
The Doctor took a deep breath. “Did you find the Tardis?”
“I think so, yeah. Didn’t want to leave you while you were out.”
“Good.” The Doctor struggled to his feet. Jack put an arm around him. “Haven’t woke up with a headache this bad since I invented the banana daiquiri,” muttered the Doctor.
“You should try being married to me,” grinned Jack.
The Doctor rolled his eyes. “I hope you don’t consider it legally binding once we get off this planet.”
“Spoilsport. We could have a great honeymoon.”
93. “I tried, but I just can’t stay away from you anymore.” Johnlock
Of course it was a perfectly sunny day when John stood on the doorstep on 221B. Rain would have been more appropriate, but he didn’t control the weather. He opened the door and went in, climbing the stairs, hearing violin, some tune he didn’t know.
The violin halted as he stood in the doorway, hand reflexively squeezing.
“I tried, but I just can’t stay away from you anymore,” said John, voice tight.
“But we agreed….Mary…” said Sherlock frozen in place.
“I don’t care.” John crossed the room and yanked him into a rough kiss.
Sherlock surrendered, setting the violin aside without breaking the kiss. The’d work this out, somehow.
95. “There’s no going back if we do this.” Mystrade
“Gregory, are you sure?” Mycroft searched Greg’s eyes. “There’s no going back if we do this.”
Greg gave him a warm smile. “Yep. Don’t worry, I’ll be right here with you.”
On the other hand, I just looked at my numbers, and holy shit. I have literally posted at least one fic a month EVERY MONTH since July of 2013. And even with as much as I slowed down last year, my overall average is stil 10 fics a month. And again, that’s not counting cowrites/other accounts/rps/stuff not posted.
No wonder i have 325 works (even if most of it is probably 1kish smut)

I got a request (!!) for recommendations of toppy-top John fics – not just top in terms of who-sticks-what-where, but dom/dark/etc – and did a bit of a search through my bookmarks. here’s what I dug up! (disclaimers: I didn’t reread before making this list, just looked at my notes on fics I’d read to jog my memory; all blurbs in quotes come from AO3 listings; heed the tags!; a fair bit of military kink – it’s just too easy; sorrynotsorry for the prevalence of recs by janto321 aka @merindab – I can’t help it!)
Deflowered by Lorelei_Lee, 16k (I’m looking forward to reading the extended version of this, but this short one is the one I fell in love with first) – “Mob!AU – Boss!John bought the first night of virgin!Sherlock who works as a rentboy in Miss Adler’s brothel.”
Below the Belt by moonblossom, 2k – “John’s trying to get some work done, but Sherlock’s only got one thing
on his mind. John decides to tie Sherlock to a chair and teach him a
lesson in patience.”
Sherlock’s Secrets by damesansmerci, 3k – “Sherlock has a rape/military fantasy wherein his big
strong soldier holds him down and takes what he wants while Sherlock
begs him to stop. / 5+1. 5 fantasies Sherlock had and the 1 time John agreed to play along.“
Affirmation by janto321, 1k – “When Sherlock comes home from the hospital he finds John moved back in and ready to claim what is his.“
Suffer Fools Gladly by rotaryphones, 7k – “Despite it being what he wanted, what he needed, none of this came
easily to Sherlock. He had learned through John that it wasn’t enough
for a partner to say or do the exact right things. Sherlock had to be
ready to let go, willing to make himself vulnerable. That wasn’t easy to
do. But he was getting better at it.“
Straight Shooter by nefariosity, 3k – “Sherlock has a military kink. John indulges him.“
Begging and Bound by janto321, 1k – “John ties Sherlock to the bed. Dog tags are involved. It’s just smut.“
The Spanking by Tindomerelhloni, 5k – “Problem: How do you go about telling your best friend
that your deepest, darkest desire is being bent over his knee and
spanked to orgasm?Solution: You don’t tell him. You get him mad, really, really mad.“
Grab Your Gun (time to go to hell) by Ishmael, 1k – “John is not a good man. That doesn’t stop him from trying to be one. (Dark!John AU, mostly canon-compliant.)“
and a couple of outliers as well
Love, Sociopath Style by fantomeq, 13k – “Sherlock likes to experiment on John in his sleep. John has a few experiments of his own to conduct.“ This one’s an outlier because they’re both dark and toppy, not just John
Watson’s everything by Tiofrean, 24k series – This one’s an outlier because it’s a 10-part series of short pieces each focused on a specific thing of John’s: fingers, stick (no, not that one, it’s his cane), corporal, mouth, armchair, tea, jumpers, duty, behind, claim; and they’re all fucking amazing
Thank you so much! There’s a few gunplay pieces of mine too out there if the person asking wants that. Heck I know I opened a few new tabs from this list 😀
