preferably not too long. i read alone on the water not too long ago and i’ve been looking for more like that. i found one with john losing his memory in an old age home and ugly cried for like an hour. hoping to do that again 😭

Hoping to found some fanfiction where Sherlock or John is shrunken down not deaged. Where they Slowly start to develop feelings for each other while the other ones tiny. Looking for rated 13 or under stories no sexual contact. Thanks again for recommendations

“Wait, no, that’s not right. John cared about plenty of things, including the fact that this fine, looking gentleman, with the sharp eyes, delicate fingers, and a tendency to say fantastical things seemed to desire his attention. About these things, John cared a great deal. The thing John did NOT care about was what the hell anyone else thought about it.”

3rd person, at least 15 chapters, preferably a casefic, smutt and fluff

Hi! While I absolutely adore fanfic for it's fan service, I'm curious to find a fic that seems more realistic and literary, where the romance is hard won and there's loads of angst.

Can y'all give me your best recs? 🕵🏻‍♀️🙏🏻

so this was a longer boarding school fic where sherlock and john were roommates, they end up finding a dog and when they’re forced to change rooms at the end of the story sherlock gets pneumonia. i know this isn’t a lot to go off of but i can’t find it anywhere

Hello 👋 I’m currently reading this fic (https://archiveofourown.org/works/391445/chapters/642479) and it inspired me to write my own story about John as a resident doctor and Sherlock coming to the hospital after an overdose Don’t know where it’s going to to go (platonic or more idk) but it has what I find a really nice Greg/John friendship and maybe even some Mystrade (not sure yet)

I have only one chapter online but I’d love to hear some feedback so here’s the link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/54134749/chapters/137065897

Hope it’s okay to post my own fic here, if not please let me know & I’ll delete this post

I'm looking for a well written (gives off the character's vibe well in the dialogues and descriptions) hurt/comfort fanfiction where John has PTSD and Sherlock comforts him. It should have at least 17 chapters. There can be smut involved, but I'd rather it wasn't all about that. More romance than smut. I think I'd prefer a 3rd person POV. Could you recommend something?

Hello everyone,

I am a long time Johnlock shipper/reader and I am coming back to the fandom after the fucking disaster S4E3 was. I was rereading some of my favorite fics from back in the days, and I was wondering if someone has any recs for peculiar and gorgeously written fics. The best example is All the Best and Brightest Creatures or The Progress of Sherlock Holmes. It can be a casefic, but if it becomes a deep character study and less about the adventure I'm also up for it.

Thanks!

I dunno of it's been recommended before but read "It feels like home when I'm with you"

Basically John is a ghost and haunting 221B Baker Street and Sherlock moves in, they start communicating and lots of stuff happens. It's relatively short and nothing explicit happens, there are a couple swears tho. It's funny but also really sad, go check it out it's awesome <3

Hey

Hey guys, I just remembered A Finger Slip and that it had been taken down. I was wondering if anyone had access to it? I know there was a file floating around but I don’t remember where.

Looking for longer fics (multi chapter, the longer the better) that use S1-S4 canon but end in johnlock. Slow burn is excellent. Any maturity rating, but plot is what I’m after. Show me what you’ve got!

As I said, any good works you happen to know in french?

Hello! I am looking for a fanfiction.net BBC Johnlock fic set during the pool scene where Moriarty taunts Sherlock that nobody will ever love Sherlock. But then John says he does love Sherlock (but he meant it platonically) so Sherlock kills Moriarty. John, realizing that Sherlock just killed the only other person as smart as him, decides to go along with actually pursuing a romantic relationship with Sherlock. I believe the title has the word "Misunderstanding" or "Misunderstood" in it. I'm pretty sure the author also made a companion fic with Sherlock's POV.

Hello! I am looking for a fairly old fanfic [2012-2014]- I think that it was likely on A03 though. What I remember was that it was set after The Great Game, and their apartment has a persistent drip/leak/water problems- but the twist at the end was that they (or one of them?) was still in moment at the end of this episode, and the whole fic had just taken place in their head or as if in a dream. I think that it was fairly long- 70k? (perhaps?) I would love to read it again, any help finding it would be fantastic!

Not every adaptation, of course--but across the original ACD stories/canon, Granada, BBC, the new Sherlock and Co. or just about any other version you're familiar with; how would you describe their Johnlock? And how they differ from eachother.

Its literally my favourite fan art ever please help me find the creator. 🫶🏻

I'm new to this fandom, but I've read and loved A Cure for Boredom and Human Remains (which is Greg/Mycroft but I wished it has a Johnlock companion because the writing was brilliant).

I've picked up and put down several of this ships gems, mostly due to them having a lot of inner monologue content (which I get bored of quickly). Can you rec the fics you would consider "God Tier" and that have less inner monologue and more showing of actions.

Please and thank you!! 😘😘😘

Hello! I am looking for a fanfic where Mycroft recommends/gives Sherlock 5 or 6 classic novels - I think Jane Austen was one of them. ulysses was another. I can't remember why! Maybe he was meddling to her Sherlock and John together?

At some point John picks up Ulysses and reads out Molly Bloom's Yes I Said Yes section and Sherlock realises he has to tell John he loves him right away.

Hopefully this fic exists and someone has hold of it somewhere! Thanks in advance.

Mary kills Mycroft and flees to America while still pregnant with John's baby. She stays with a friend for a couple days and steals some clothes (the friend is a hijabi) from her as a disguise and dyes her hair brown. She gives birth alone and ends up stealing antibiotics from a pharmacy because she gets an infection from absolutely zero post natal care. Also she gives the baby up for illegal adoption. The man who arranged the illegal adoption is confronted by John and Sherlock, and he tries to taze Sherlock (but his replacement bellstaff is tazeproof lol). The lawyer ia murdered but John and Sherlock manage to find the family anyways. The wife actually stops the husband from killing John and Sherlock and allows them to take the baby. John shoots Mary after she shoots Sherlock as he sees no other way out.

Cute detail but Anthea replaces Mycroft and we find out her name is Evelyn or something.

Please help! I really want to read this fic again and recommend it to people!

I read it quite a long time ago and don’t remember a ton about it, but I do recall it being so angsty and sad and I would love to read it again. Essentially Sherlock and John get married, have a bit of a contentious relationship, they divorce and come back together later in life. In the meantime I’m pretty sure John married Mary and Sherlock retires and starts keeping bees, all before they eventually reconnect and come back together later in life.

The most specific detail I really recall is that while they’re separated, Sherlock starts to lose his cognition/memory a bit and can’t remember the what a “bee brush” is called.

Any help would be so appreciated!!

a while ago I read this johnlock ff and i've been dying to read it again but I dont remember the title. john and sherlock were both sick and kinda took care of eachother. they ended up on the same bed and I remember that sherlock lost his voice at some point and had to write on a piece of paper. if you know the title would you please tell me? I think I read it on ao3 but im not sure
