Johnlock | I think I love you (by the creator Alex)

pls lol im obsessed

Hi, I’m looking for a johnlock fic post reichenbach. I read it a long time ago, but now I can’t seem to find it again. it’s after sherlock falls /dies, mycroft gives john sherlocks last will. He gives him a house (can’t remember if the house was located in wales or Sussex). After getting the house john leaves london to live there, afterwards sherlock comes back for him and that’s when they get together (if i remember correctly it might be one long chapter or have a couple chapters).

If anyone finds it, please let me know. I would really like to read it again, 😆😊 Thank you.

I read it years ago and it really stuck with me, it’s an AU where Sherlock and John are actors filming a movie and they fall in love on set and like talk about acting and it’s so perfect and good. I’m sure there are several like this but does anyone have any leads for me?? I think it’s eventual smut idk I can’t remember 😞

Does anyone have any domestic Johnlock fics? I'm in desperate need.

I don't know if it's just me being silly but I haven't been able to find a good fic where the bottom is John and he's also not younger (by much) than Sherlock.

I just want something with John bottom and at least the same age 😫 and no versatility xd.

however, seeing the votes and readers make me very happy. at the same time writing it also improves my english as it is my 2nd language. if anyones wondering to know its Ruthless Enquiries on wattpad!

I have hardly read any fanfiction on this pairing. I’ve tried to read a few of the most popular ones but I had a hard time getting into them because they were too fast paced with the relationship. Power is going to be out in my area of Florida for a few days during the hurricane, so I want to stock up on a nice good book to read. Would really appreciate some recommendations. Something with character development because it’s been awhile since I’ve watched or read the books and need to get back into the characters again.

Whether he has powers, is badass, smart, etc. In-universe fics pls. Just fics where he and Sherlock really match eachother, yk?

I read a Johnlock fic that was absolutely amazing but I forgot to bookmark it!

It's a time travel fic but in a weird way. John and Sherlock fall asleep in 221B and then wake up in the past. It takes them a day or two to get their memories of the time back (in the past) because they go back and forth, from the past to the present and they never know when. John is a Lord (or something similar) and has to get married to keep his lands and Sherlock has chosen to live as a woman (still a man, just dresses as a woman) so that they can stay together. John is super kind to the servants and they are very loyal to him and Sherlock. And Sherlock's deductions are so amazing they think he is Seer/Witch of some kind. But the household is super protective of him. They are not in a relationship when this first starts to happen but get together in the past. There is a lot of BAMF John in the fic and it is heavy on the angst. I can't remember exactly where it's set but it is near the ocean. I want to say Greece. And John's name is like "Ioannes" or something like that.

It's a longer fic, muti chapter, but so epic. Any help will be gratefully accepted!

Hi! anyone recommend me Jonhlock fanfics but Sherlock as top and Jonh as bottom, without age change?

I've read a few but I'd like to know your favourites, thanks in advance!!! （╹◡╹）

The fic premise is that Sherlock is from the town of Halloween from the Movie the Nightmare Before Christmas. He and Mycroft escaped that town with the skull of their older brother and now they avoid celebrating any holidays whilst in the human realm. He has strict rules about this and John finds it odd but doesn’t ponder too deeply on it. Then things happen and Sherlock dies so John goes to the town of Halloween to meet him and try to help. After a while, during Christmas (I think) Sherlock and John go before the council of all the holidays and plead for Sherlock to live freely in the human realm. They win the majority vote and there’s a sequel of them celebrating each holiday so Sherlock isn’t taken back to the town.

If anyone knows the name or has the link of the fic, I would be extremely grateful if they could inform me. Thanks.

I am desperate to find a fanfic I used to LOVE about ten years ago. The part I remember the most is John comes home after a really hard day and Sherlock offers to wash his hair for him. Sherlock tells John that the last time he got his hair cut John almost fell asleep when the barber was shampooing him. So Sherlock washes John’s hair and it’s very sweet and I still think about it to this day! PLEASE help me find this fic 🙏🏼🫶🏼

This is my first time writing a fan fiction. Let me know if you like it and if there's any advice for me!

The fire was crackling as John tilted back in his armchair and took a sip of his tea. He was getting married to Mary in a few days. Married, he never thought of himself as a husband. Well, he looked up at the man next to the window with a violin in his hand, he had never thought of himself as a lot of things.

John still couldn’t believe he was there in their apartment. Sherlock, who jumped off a building; Sherlock, who crashed onto the pavement right in front of his eyes; Sherlock, who John had believed was dead and whom he thought he would never had the chance to tell the truth to…

John wondered what might have happened if he had the time to say what he couldn’t say.

Sherlock lifted his violin. Music poured out between the strings, a melody that John had never heard of.

Composing, Sherlock had told him that composing helps him think. John wondered what was occupying Sherlock’s mind at the moment. The cold and humid autumn air was flowing through the window of their apartment. Sherlock stood with his eyes shut, as if he was deep in thought.

The feeling of the melody was a little different from the one he wrote when he thought Irene Adler was dead. This one was… sweet, romantic, well, at least that’s what John could tell with what Sherlock would say was his “human emotions.”

John leaned forward as he listened closely. He had always wondered how Sherlock could come up with such beautiful tunes if he couldn’t grasp the “feelings” he despised so much.

Romance. But that wasn’t all of it, there was a hint of bitterness, as if putting on a smile as you watch someone you care deeply about walks away. Who could that have been for Sherlock? Molly, perhaps. Or maybe Irene.

There was a pause of silence as the music comes to an end.

“Composing?” John asked, but Sherlock didn’t answer. “That was quite a nice piece,” John added.

“A wedding waltz, for you and Mary,” Sherlock murmured as he put down his violin and placed the music sheets in an envelop, “I assume that would make me quite the best man?”

John chuckles, “Oh no no, Mary and I, we agreed that dancing in front of people would not be a smart choice.”

“Yes, Mary had informed me that you might need some tutoring,” Sherlock replied. John swear he could see a mischievous twinkle in Sherlock’s eyes.

He bowed and extended his hand to John.

“Are you serious?” John stared at Sherlock, “You? You’re going to dance?”

“The movement of body parts to create something that people find artistically pleasing, shouldn’t be too different from playing the violin. Plus I assume that obeying the bride’s order is sort of a convention for wedding practices, although I must say I could hardly see the necessity of any of those practices.”

“Fine, then, I guess this is happening.” John took Sherlock’s hand and got out of the chair, “How exactly does this work?”

“Well, considering I’m playing the role of the bride, you should place your other hand accordingly,” Sherlock guided John’s left hand to his waist and place his own hand on John’s shoulder, all while holding John’s right hand tightly.

Like the night they ran away from the police together, John couldn’t help but remember that night, the night that made him so afraid yet so… alive. Except there were no handcuffs and no sharp police car sirens this time, only the warm red light from the fireplace.

“Now, just follow my lead, simply enough,” Sherlock as he stepped forward, then sideway, then backward, in surprisingly graceful movements. As usual, John found his lead extremely difficult to follow.

Sherlock seemed to notice his uneasiness, “You need to relax, tenseness in the muscle interferes with the mobility and…” “Shut up, just shut up for once,” John let go of Sherlock’s hand in frustration and sank back into his chair, “Can’t do this, no.”

“If this helps, I’ve heard that limiting one’s concentration to one single site helps with focus during the dance.”

John hesitated. “Ok, just one more try,” John stood up and held Sherlock’s hand once more. His eyes were fixed on Sherlock’s shirt, then his collar, then his cheekbones.

Those annoying cheekbones, keeping him all mysterious and confident, John thought as he gradually picked up the steps, maybe annoyance helped with dancing?

His stare then landed on Sherlock’s eyes, and, for a moment, he almost forgot the steps. Those eyes were just so… unlike Sherlock. He looked… sad, heartbroken even, but it was Sherlock, so who knew what it could mean. They gazed at each other, and John seemed to forgot that he felt uncomfortable with waltzing to begin with.

“You realize that umm,” John cleared his throat as they continued to waltz across their apartment carpet, “I’ll be moving in with Mary once the wedding’s over?”

“Seems reasonable,” Sherlock replied in his usual tone.

“But um, if a case pop up or anything, you know, if you need me, you can still phone me,” John continued.

“What would I need you for?”

“I mean it, Sherlock, I’ll be there. Anytime,” John looked into Sherlock’s eyes, “Anytime you need.”

A quiet pause between the two almost made John regret what he said.

“Thank you, John. That’s quite a generous offer.” Sherlock broke the silence, then lunge forward and holding John into a dip, “Now, that’s just one more optional element if you want to surprise Mary.”

“Now people will definitely talk,” John laughed as Sherlock pulled him back.

"I'm happy for you, John. I really am," Sherlock suddenly sounded serious, "You deserve to have someone that make you happy, after all you've been through." Sherlock paused for a second, "After all I've put you through..."

"You know, she... Mary, she's not the first person who had made me feel this way, being happy, I mean. You've also..."

"I know," Sherlock said softly, "I know."

I've heard about a old version of Sherlock but is jonhlock at the same time (like a fanfic), that is difficult to find in internet , does anyone know anything about of this story?

Years ago - like 8-10, I read this fanfic where John and Sherlock had an established marriage. They had an adopted young son who had cancer and was undergoing treatment. It was big on angst and hurt/comfort. I distinctly remember that there was one scene where Sherlock was drumming his fingers to “Serenade” by Franz Schubert. Can anyone help me?

Hiya! Ok this is really random. But I was just watching Sherlock through again. And I randomly remembered that there was a fanfic I remember reading when I was in highschool and it’s a fanfic I’ve wanted to read through again so I thought I’d come on here and ask if anybody remembers it or knows what it’s called.

I don’t really remember the plot much. But I remember it was a John lock, teenlock and they shared a bed in there shared bedroom cuz their roommates (yeah I know not very helpful) but sherlock skips out on all his classes. But what might jog your memory is

there is a strange little scene with where john and Sherlock catch moriarty and his significant other making out and john compared it to jello?? And at the end of it there is like this whole realization and John compares relationships with jello it was honestly really neat.

at the end of the fanfic there is a random chapter with the whole superwholock. And it’s got 10th doc and rose. And Sam dean and cas. It’s really random but really fun.

Idk why this fanfic is stuck in my head. But if you have any ideas let me know!

Oh yeah, here's the link https://unipark.uni-trier.de/uc/writing_fans/

So in watching the finale of Sherlock there was one line in Mary's final monolog, that realy stood out to me, "if I’m gone, I know what you could become."

And in my opinion this her sort of granting them her blessing...

It is definitely less satisfying then a kiss or some other form of conformation. But i do think it definitely leaves the ending very up to interpretation.

At the very least I feel like Mary is definitely suggested that without her they would probably end up dating.

The fact that even John's WIFE lokie ships johnlock I think makes it 30% more cannon.

Just finished reading "Castrato" and it was fantastic. Looking for more pics set in the granada universe.

i've been rewatching the series at the same time that i've been listening to taylor swift a lot lately, and i realized when listening to this song that almost every lyric can be directly related to johnlock. here's my breakdown:

"the smoke cloud billows out his mouth like a freight train through a small town"

sherlock has smoking addiction

................

"the jokes that he told across the bar were revolting and far too loud"

sherlock is known to be abrasive, so his jokes would, of course, be offensive to most people

.............

"they shake their heads sayin' 'God, help her' when i tell 'em he's my man"

everyone warned john to not be close to sherlock when they first met each other. additionally, moriarty is surprised sherlock would want to be around a "normal" person like john.

.............

"but your good Lord doesn't need to lift a finger, i can fix him, no, really, i can | and only i can"

this can also go both ways. sherlock thinks he can fix john by eliminating his limp and giving him the exciting life that he craves. john thinks he can fix sherlock by teaching him empathy and providing a safe space for him.

...........

"the dopamine races through his brain on a six-lane texas highway"

this reminds me of both john and sherlock because they both love the thrill of being on a case

...........

"his hand so calloused from his pistol softly traces hearts on my face"

john is ex-army, so he used to shoot guns and still does sometimes when working cases with sherlock. he's also a doctor, so the second part makes me think of him examining sherlock for injuries.

.........

"and i could see it from a mile away, a perfect case for my skill set"

when sherlock meets john, the first thing he does is read into everything he can about john. he knows john wants the excitement he would get from working cases, so he invites him to crime scenes and suspect chases.

..........

"he had a halo of the highest grade, he just hadn't met me yet"

the first part can refer to john's high moral code and desire to always do the right thing. the second part can refer to how john needs sherlock, even when he doesn't know it.

...........

"trust me, i can handle a dangerous man | no, really, i can"

both john and sherlock could be described as dangerous men. john because he is ex-army and knows how to shoot, fight, and kill. sherlock for obvious reasons.

..........

i hope there's some sherlockian swifties (or non-swifties) that appreciate this! i'd love to hear any other thoughts or interpretations :)

I'm making a playlist right now and i was wondering what songs are your johnlock go two's, angst, fluff, hurt, whatever.
