Summary
My take on the following BBC Sherlock Headcanon: "In the pool scene, when John comes out, Sherlock believed just for a moment that John is Moriarty and that John Watson never existed. He was so freaked out that he didn't even notice John had changed coats. At the end of TRF Sherlock counts this as the most terrifying moment of his life and is ashamed that he doubted John, even briefly, when John never doubted him."
What if John WAS Moriarty, but not in the way people think? What if he wasn't JUST John Watson? What if John Watson and Jim Moriarty were...brothers? Not like foster-siblings but legit blood-family? What if John's records weren't as clean as they looked, what if he had a record that had been sealed (think juvie)? What if he KNEW Sebastian Moran? I mean, beyond any service in the Army together? This is my take! Please enjoy!

Summary
It's been five years since Sherlock Holmes last saw John Watson. A very long, very lonely five years. John has moved on with his life, but apparently not as thoroughly as Sherlock initially believed. A night out on the town leads Sherlock back into the arms of the one and only person who has ever really understood and loved him, and he doesn't know if he can let go again. Or even if he wants to.

Summary
A strange little BBC Sherlock fanfiction that popped into my head when I found the following prompt: "He dropped to one knee and began snapping photographs. He didn't want to miss anything. Most everyone was running away from the explosion but others were..." And this is where it took me. Crossovers with some familiar franchises, cameos by some equally familiar and loved characters. I can't help myself. I'm sorry. No I'm not.

EDIT: Story is now complete! Probably won't have a sequel to this one, seeing where I ended it.Series

The Empty Rooms of 221B Baker Street by FourCornersHolmes
Fandoms: Sherlock Holmes & Related Fandoms, Sherlock (TV)
31 Jul 2021
Tags
Summary
This is my NaNo 2017 piece. The title's a little misleading, but it fits. I promise no one PERMANENTLY moves out of Baker Street, but it comes close. Sherlock's an insensitive bastard, things go not very well post-TGG, and poor John finds herself in some very...interesting company. John's a saint, Jim's a sweetheart, and Seb...well, he doesn't get paid enough to put up with this shit. Oh, and Greg features. He's a good bro, his wife's a bitch, and she doesn't feature for very long. She gets hers, don't worry. Off-screen, of course, but she doesn't make much trouble once she's out of the picture. Mycroft is...Mycroft. Molly's her sweet, chirpy, bumbling-yet-capable self. And Jim's mother...I think you'll like her. I had fun writing Sheila Moriarty. And Jim's grandmother.

Home Secrets by FourCornersHolmes

17 Jun 2017
Tags
Summary
I have NO idea where this came from, just that it...came. Well, I kind of do. This was inspired by a Headcanon entry I found ages ago. What if, after The Reichenbach Fall, Sherlock fell into a coma, John pulled himself together, talked TO Mycroft instead of tearing him to shreds for the whole Moriarty mess, got the truth, and decided to do something useful? I mean, I've read so many awesome fics where John's got a "secret" history in Special Forces, I figured why not? That's kind of where this came from. John Watson isn't just a friendly, easy-going, jumper-loving Army doctor with deadly aim (that kinda happens when you're a sniper), he's got history and the credentials to prove it. So, this is what MIGHT have happened if Sherlock, unable to help himself or anyone else, wasn't the one moving across Europe and the world taking apart Moriarty's network (if there really WAS one to begin with), and instead it was John, Mycroft, and Lestrade. Yes, I put Lestrade in here, too. I love the unassuming side-kicks doing BAMF things, so have my weird offering. Like or hate it, let me know!

The Doctor & The Mastermind by FourCornersHolmes

Summary
John Watson had lived a fairly standard, slightly boring life until he decided to go to the Army. They had paid for medical school in exchange for service, which he thought was more than fair for a kid from a lower-middle class family strapped for cash and nothing more advanced than a secondary-school education. Getting shot and shipped home half-delirious and useless had been possibly the worst experience of John’s life. But, he’d done his best to pick up the pieces of his life once he could think straight. Then, he’d met one of the most remarkable people in the world. He’d met Sherlock Holmes. An old med-school friend had introduced them and the rest was…well, sort of history. Everything got far, far more interesting after they were introduced to a gentleman named Jim Moriarty.

It's generally acknowledged that if you return a Shapeshifter's coat, you've offered yourself as a suitable mate and you would like them to consider you in turn. What happens AFTER that isn't as widely discussed. This is what happens when a good deed changes (and saves) a life.

The Making of John H. Watson by FourCornersHolmes

Summary
Sherlock Holmes would remember January 28th and 29th of 2010 for the rest of his life, if he had any say in matters. Not because something bad had happened, but because something life-changing had happened. It wouldn’t occur to him until much later what this thing was, for the moment the present demanded his attention.

Summary
John Watson had never expected to be dismissed from one service, let alone two in his lifetime. And yet, the truth was staring him in the face in stark black and white. And it didn’t seem that either dismissal was voluntary. Not again. This could not be happening again. It wasn’t fair, he deserved better than a simple “thank you for your service and efforts, good luck with your future endeavours” and a handshake. Which was, more or less, exactly what he was getting. The first time, it made perfect sense, he had been compromised and unfit for further active service. But he had little more to show for a decade and some of service in the Army than a couple of campaign medals, a few orders and honours likewise, and a scar on his left shoulder just a few centimetres shy of his heart. He had a fine pension, but it wasn’t good for much. His finances were bolstered by an additional income he received from the government as compensation for continuing service to Crown and Country through his work with Intelligence, thanks to the timely intervention of a mutual acquaintance who had made him an offer he couldn’t refuse when he was staring at a bleak future in a city that didn’t feel like home to him.

Summary
What if things aren't exactly what they seem? What if reincarnation was a thing? And beyond that, memories of past lives are retained. Enter John Watson, a fairly normal every-man with a habit of going on "adventures", anything from a few days to a few months. He just ... goes where the road leads him. But the adventurous child grows into a man and his nomadic ways come to an end as he joined the British Army. For another thirteen years, he goes where the Army sends him and serves his country as an army doctor. It's what happens after his service ends that makes things interesting. Well, more interesting, in any case. Not that his career was anything close to boring.

Summary
Starts pre-Series 1, but catches up to the action fairly quickly. Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. Childhood friends, best friends, destined lovers, crime-solving crack-team, Army mates. Yes, you read that right: Army mates. Sherlock joins John in the British Army as an alternative to rehab and criminal drug-charges after he's pulled from a flop-house by Greg Lestrade during a NSY drugs-bust in Central London. Mycroft is a good big brother and The British Government. Greg is established, patient, and doesn't get paid enough to put up with the boys. Molly is a sweetheart and a force to be reckoned with. Sally is a BAMF who’s been dating John since forever and doesn’t hate Sherlock. Sherlock is clever, moody, and sweet. John is observant, clever, and sweet...until you touch what is his. We don’t talk about Anderson, he’s a creepy-stalker prick who tries to woo John’s girl while he’s off serving Queen and Country, and fails because Sally knows her true loyalties. Or Jim Moriarty. He’ll come up, but he won’t get what he wants out of the boys. Mention of past bad parenting/abusive parenting and drug-use.

Summary
Strange what-if that crept into my head weeks ago and stuck. Crossover with the 1996 101 Dalmatians (the live-action version of the 1961 original). Case-fic for missing Dalmatian puppies post-S2 of Sherlock. No s3, no s4. Mary's not nice and not around very long. OOC Sherlock and John, just a little bit.
