S/J: Past University Hook Up anonymous December 26 2011, 04:42:13 UTC
So ta-da super original prompt of John and Sherlock hooking up while they're in university!

John thinks that 'Sherlock Holmes' is a fake name, he takes that as a subtle hint that 'Sherlock' doesn't want to see him again after that night despite the fact that it was mind-blowing. He respects that and decides not to try and contact him.

Sherlock ends up wanting to see John again but doesn't hear back from him.

CUE LOTS OF H/C WHEN THEY REUNITE DURING A STUDY IN PINK, I would adore a happy ending.

(RTYIs are really welcome, I know there are a lot of uni au's out there but I haven't read anything like this)

FILL: Chance Encounters part 4a/4 anonymous January 17 2012, 10:05:48 UTC
Took some liberties with procedure here. Hope it still seems like it could happen.
------

John knew he shouldn’t feel guilty. He knew that it was within his rights to stop pining about a man after so many years apart. He knew that sex didn’t necessarily mean love. And yet, when he saw Sherlock so utterly broken he wanted to make it better somehow ( ... )

XD Clearly 'Sherlock Holmes' cannot possibly be a sensible person's name. You can't fool me!

I second third all romantic misunderstandings with happy endings!

Irene/Harry Wholock anonymous December 26 2011, 04:47:05 UTC
does someone want to make a fic out of my headcanon?

In the process of dealing with Sherlock Irene meets and fall in love with Harry. They shack up and form an epic investigating duo the likes the world has (almost never) seen.

But one day whilst investigating a series of mysterious disappearances Irene and Harry are thrown back in time (either the rift or the weeping angels? Or something else?) to the Victorian era. They end up meeting Madame Vastra and Jenny and the 4 girls realise that not only do they get on like a house on fire, they also work rather well as a team. Cue many bamfing, time-travelling, lesbian, thespian, Victorian, Silurian adventures.

tl:dr- Irene gets together with Harry and they're thrown back in time to form an alliance with Madame Vastra and Jenny

I literally just re-blogged that from tumblr raging about what a good idea it was. I shall heartily second this since I can't write worth shit!

I'll probably fill this after I've actually seen A Scandal in Belgravia.
Because this prompt is so wonderful.

Hmm, despite the fact that I seriously disliked the woman playing Irene, I am SO SECONDING THIS (FOURTHING THIS?). Wish I could write it, but I'm just not that awesome... ^.^;

Angst anonymous December 26 2011, 05:22:31 UTC
I dunno, it got stuck in my head after watching the sequel. (Spoilers for the sequel, I guess?)

There's a bomb threat, and Sherlock has to piece the clues together to figure out where the bomb is and get to it and disarm it before it goes off.

After a false lead takes him to the wrong place he figures out the right one. But the second he figures out where it is something strikes a memory, Mycroft had briefly mentioned (during one of the forced-upon him 'sibling chats') that he would be attending business at that very place.

They rush to get there and arrive just in time to see the bomb go off.

Sherlock freaks out.

(Whether Mycroft was injured/killed/not in the explosion at all is up to the author, I just want some "Aww, he really does care" angst. No incest please, just not my cup of tea.)

(Bonus points if Sherlock cries. I am a horrible person)

sorry that was I'd love to do this, writer anon here has some idea and will start writing very soon. Im picky about prompts, if i read one and it sparks an idea I go through with it -i've only written one 3 chapter one and one another one so far though (which is approaching 16 chapters) so whether or not this one turns out to be short or long depends on my mind. But I can tell you this, it will most likely include:

-John
-Sherlock, John banter (my fav thing to write)
-Angst
-H/C
-Deductions (if i can)
-Flashbacks, childhood memories
-Time skip
-Mycroft

OP here, I just want to say that I'm looking forward to it and I'm really grateful that you decided to write a fill for it. Seriously, the grin on my face is ridiculous right now.

Sherlock/someone, Beauty and the Beast twist anonymous December 26 2011, 05:49:09 UTC
Beauty and the Beast-type story with a twist:

Sherlock is the perfect-skinned but icy cold, sharp-tongued, annoying Beast figure.

Someone is a dumpy?, scarred?, plain?, traditionally unattractive, but oh so sweet/fun/hilarious Beauty figure.

Slash, het, or anything is welcome. I'd like the 'Beauty' and 'Beast' attributes to be about personality NOT looks.

Re: Sherlock/someone, Beauty and the Beast twist anonymous December 26 2011, 22:48:16 UTC
Wasn't it always done like that? Sure, if one had to describe a character as 'beauty' Sherlock would fit better than John in that department but Sherlock always ends up being the beast.

This is an excellent Beauty and the Beast WIP with John as the Beast: http://sherlockbbc-fic.livejournal.com/9100.html?thread=42644876#t42644876
A WIP, but I'd still recommend it.

NOT an ryti for the prompt - just a counter-example for the anon I'm responding to who thought Sherlock's always the Beast.

I DO second the prompt for being about personality and not looks :-)

Convoluted Role-Switching! anonymous December 26 2011, 06:32:39 UTC
Okay, this is gonna make NO sense. But just throw your sense out the window for a moment. :D

John Watson? Army doctor, guy with the cane, wears cuddly jumpers? Yeah, that's not him. That's actually Sebastian Moran. The real Doctor Watson is a woman, who traveled to America after she was discharged and changed her name to Irene Adler. Mike Stamford is Ronald Adair.

And hey, if you want to take this further...

The guy by the pool? That's not Jim Moriarty; that's the real Lestrade, undercover. The DI Lestrade we know? That's Moriarty - he worked his way up through NSY just to get closer to Sherlock Holmes.

Or: any other crazy character-switching you can think of!

TL;DR No character on the show is actually who you think they are.

This prompt is absolutely BRILLIANT. There's only the slimmest chance that I'm a big enough BAMF to do this justice so I hope this gets a fill.

Oh, but that means that the only people in the world who Sherlock trusts and have allowed close to him are working together to move against him.
