Our house is not a home bigmamag August 23 2010, 21:40:08 UTC

I so want Sherlock to think John is going to leave him because John is unhappy. John keeps spending the night at Sarah's, his internet search history has stuff like ads for flats, he stops buying milk, I dunno, just a lot of things that, on the surface, look like John is getting ready to leave. Cue Sherlock trying to be a better flatmate, like actually buying groceries, making meals, cleaning up, letting John sleep in, etc. John is creeped out and eventually draws the line at something so out of character for Sherlock that's it's ridiculous. It turns out that John, of course, isn't leaving, just staying with Sarah who is scared of being alone after being mugged on the street, finding her a new place to live, and stopped buying milk because, damn it, it's an experiment to see how long Sherlock will go without it before getting it himself.

It's unashamed floof, I'm afraid. Had a bad day, writing this cheered me up ( ... )

“No, no, John. Not at all. I was just thinking how…accurately you slice cheese?”

That...is exactly the kind of compliment I imagine Sherlock giving. It's so wonderfully awkward and bizarre. :)

“I bought things!” Sherlock swept in behind him, bags in leather gloved hands. He dumped them on the kitchen table and whipped off his coat. “Look ( ... )

"I bought thing" jsut about cracked me up :D Love it lol.

Aw, his attention down to the details of what brands and cheese John likes is so...creepily adorable.

Also loved the bit of "Of course I went through your pockets, oh wait, wrong answer, no. No I did not."

Your Sherlock really works for me. Most fics I read get him really OOC when he's trying to be nice. Yours is just kind of adorable in the I-know-everything-about-you-but-I'm-still-ridiculously-socially-incompetent kind of way. Kudos!

Exactly; this is great! I wish the author would de-anon, and post it on a proper page. Nothing to be embarrassed by here!

Oh my goodness, it's like it went from my brain to your brain except then it got better! This definitely made my night. I think I hurt myself laughing at Sherlock consulting a list and he was so adorable being all eager about getting groceries. ♥

I'm really glad you liked it! :) thank you for the lovely prompt.
