Summary
Sherlock is struggling to recover from the horror he suffered in Serbia. With John and Mary away on their honeymoon, he must face his demons alone. Will he find closure or come completely unravelled?
This work is complete, I never publish anything that is not complete. You will get your ending!
Thank you to my ever so busy beta Sandrina. Without her help and support and nice words I would never be brave enough to post the dark stories that I write.

Summary
“Alright,” John says while dialling a number, “we’ll let the X-rays do the talking. It’ll be hard to convince Dr. Sullivan not to put you in a suicide recovery program, obviously, but at least we’ll see what your deranged mind thought was a good idea to swallow.”
“I didn’t swallow it.”
“Come again?”
“I didn’t swallow it, I said.”
Someone on the other end of the phone has answered, but John, who’s already covered the receiver with his hand, doesn’t seem interested anymore.
The vacant stare and that gaping mouth Sherlock gets in response beg for comment.
“Oh, John.” Sherlock tilts his head, a nervous, entirely wrong smile distorting his features. “Your deductive skills were never great, but a couple of years ago, you’d have figured it out right away. Have you really deteriorated this much in my absence?”

Summary
A reimagining of Sherlock's fireside panic attack - if Mycroft had made the journey out to Dartmoor and John had instead turned in for the night.
***
When Mycroft arrived at the tavern in Dartmoor, he spotted Sherlock without effort, sitting in an armchair by the fire. Sherlock’s deliberate choice of warmth had already given him pause.
On closer inspection, he could see the thinly veiled agitation in his brother. Palms together, they sat underneath his chin as if in prayer. Firelight caught in tear-bright eyes.
Something was wrong.

Summary
“What did Greg tell you?” John inquired, handing Rosie the rattle to keep her busy. She took it gladly, giddily shaking it against her dad’s shoulder. John ignored her.
Sherlock frowned. “Pardon?”
“What did he tell you after you asked him how Mycroft was?” John repeated, offhandedly dodging the rattle aiming for his face.
“That he was a bit shaken up.”
“Right. And?”
Sherlock paused, swallowing the sudden uneasiness settling on his chest. “He’s Mycroft,” he murmured, almost to himself. “He’s never shaken up.”
Or: after the events of Sherringford, Mycroft locks himself in his office. Greg worries, and asks Sherlock to check on him. The brothers have a much-needed talk. Uncomfortable emotions ensue.
Featuring: Greg Lestrade being an awesome boyfriend, Anthea being scarily good at her job, Rosie being adorable and John being bullied over his tea-making skills.Bookmarked by TheFinalScene

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)

Summary
An introspective journey through the life and relationships of Sherlock Holmes.
"I can hear the bones hum beneath pale and freckled skin, this sack that holds my form together. Bits and pieces that start at the bottom and end at the top, hiding the blood, muscle, fat. Cells, knit together, constantly in motion. They'll live and die, and replicate, until total equilibrium is met."

Summary
John Watson, WWII army doctor, is injured in the line of duty and can no longer wield a scalpel. Sherlock Holmes, Britain's best code-breaker, is side-lined by his own devastating injury. In a work inspired by Frances Hodgson Burnett's "The Secret Garden," the two men must find meaning and purpose in a world which seems to have taken away all they hold most dear.
But of course, it really hasn't.

Summary
After John is seriously injured, Sherlock struggles to figure out how to help him, keep himself sane, and maybe, just maybe, get their life back to the way it's supposed to be.
A minute later and John was asleep again. Sherlock wanted to wake him up and grab him by the shoulders and shake him and demand that he try to wiggle his toes, kick his legs, stand up and walk. He wanted to weave his hands into John's hair and kiss him until they both couldn't breathe. He wanted to crawl into bed next to him and cry himself to sleep. Instead he just settled back into the moulded plastic chair, leaving his fingers wrapped in John's, waiting, waiting.

Summary
Despite all the things John loses when Sherlock jumps from that rooftop, the one thing that remains firmly in place—against all odds—is his sanity, his mind.
Sherlock, unfortunately, may not be so lucky.
Or: the one where it's Sherlock who thinks John's a figment of his imagination when he finally returns home, not the other way around.
