Life is very long, when you’re lonely - (2023)
I gathered in this post all the BBC Sherlock speed paintings / artworks I did between December 2022 and March 2023. I did them at first to practice lights and textures but I ended up with a series centered around loneliness, grief and…means of transportations.
A Christmas Miracle
Rosie, just under six years old and still possessing the blissful childhood naïveté, still ardently believed in Santa Claus. John was hell-bent on keeping it that way, especially since last week Rosie discovered some of Sherlock’s human toes in the cupboard and had several well-deserved questions that John unhappily answered.
Sherlock, of course, believed that lying to children is a crime worthy of death and that the very notion of Santa Claus is akin to believing in the Loch Ness Monster. As such, John was fairly convinced that Sherlock was on course to destroy their daughter’s innocent Christmastime belief. By the by, this was also the reason why John was glad he was the one to answer Rosie’s questions about the toes instead of Sherlock.
After a series of very long, very tedious conversations about the importance of allowing a child to continue to believe in Santa Claus despite the seeming irrationality of the endeavor, John seemed to have convinced Sherlock to—at the very least—keep quiet about the whole matter. Sherlock certainly put up a fight, but after John dug his heels in, reminded Sherlock that Rosie was five years old and allowed to believe in fantastical things, and threatened serious bodily harm and withholding of physical favors for an indefinite period of time, a grumbling Sherlock acquiesced. Still, John waited for Christmas with no small amount of anxiety, convinced that at any moment Sherlock would spoil the whole ruse.
On Christmas morning, Rosie excitedly pounded on their bedroom door, exclaiming that Santa had visited the night before. With a glare at Sherlock that John hoped communicated the importance of keeping quiet, John followed an excited Rosie into the sitting room. There, John was surprised to find what appeared to be a veritable crime scene pointing at Santa’s presence. The window to the sitting room was propped open, with incriminating boot-marks and something that looked suspiciously like reindeer-prints tracked throughout the flat. The dirt on the boot-prints looked rather foreign to John, as if it came from somewhere far from London. Some of the furniture had been pushed aside—a chair pulled out where Santa sat, a pesky ottoman moved out of the way—with bits of tinsel placed wherever Santa had allegedly walked. The room smelled strangely of peppermint and chocolate. And John couldn’t help but notice that there appeared to be a few more gifts in Rosie’s stocking than he initially placed, with tags written in a handwriting that John couldn’t quite recognize.
Rosie examined the evidence with excitement and reverence, taking in each clue as final proof that Santa existed and visited their flat the night before. John had rarely seen her so excited.
“It must be a Christmas miracle, John,” Sherlock said at John’s raised eyebrows, and refused to say anything else on the subject.
As Rosie chattered on about Santa and Sherlock settled in to watch her, cup of tea in his hand and a little smile on his face, John wasn’t particularly sure about Santa or Christmas or miracles. He did, however, know that the partner he had chosen in this life was nothing short of extraordinary.
i recently began hyperfixating on bbc sherlock any good fics you could recommend for me?

Any new case fics? Thank you very much as always....
Sure, here are the casefics I've recced over the past 6 months:
♢ ♧ ♤ ♡ by Saki101 (11K, M, Johnlock) An odd, little slice of life on Baker Street.
best things dwell out of Sight by rachelindeed (ACD, 9K, T, Johnlock) In a society where telepathic ability is too often equated with worth, Miss Mary Sutherland is short-Sighted. But that didn't stop her from smelling a rat in Mr. Hosmer Angel's courtship, and her case gives Holmes and Watson the chance to prove that the marriage of true minds requires no magic at all.
Danger Nights by khorazir (23K, T, Johnlock) According to folklore, the nights between Christmas and Twelfth Night are the most dangerous of the year. During them, the Wild Hunt rides, and ghosts and demons come out to haunt unsuspecting and misbehaving folk. An investigation of a series of strange occurrences leads John and Sherlock to Hay-on-Wye on the Welsh Marches, to face ghosts weird and ancient as well as close and personal – and perhaps to start the new year on a more hopeful note than the previous one.
In Plain Sight by lord_is_it_mine (44K, E, Johnlock) The thing that bothered John the most was the one thing he didn't know- who was the person Hurst killed, all those years ago, and what was their relationship with Sherlock?
Love Me, Love Me Knot by kirin_calls, XBelladonnaX (213K, E, Johnlock) In an alternate universe, the Omega Sherlock and the Alpha John meet by chance and enter into a pact which leads to far-reaching consequences.
No Clean Slate by BeautifulFiction (112K, E, Johnlock) Not even Mary's death is enough to wipe her slate clean. Especially when she never died at all. John Watson must face up to his wife's past and keep his daughter safe. He doesn't ask for help, not from anyone. Except Sherlock Holmes.
O Guiding Light by Radclyffe (25K, G, Johnlock, Mystrade) John is back at Baker Street, and back in the old routine living with Sherlock Holmes, or as much as he can be as parent of a lively not-quite-three year old. But is Sherlock about to rock the boat? And what exactly is up with Mycroft?
This Is Meant to Hurt by ambut (27K, E, Johnlock) After a successful case and a night of drinking, John and Sherlock's friendship begins to change in subtle ways. Then murder victims who look suspiciously Sherlock-esque begin appearing around London. Sherlock is delightfully intrigued. John is not.
Together We Fell by Enterthetadpole, WritingOutLoud (55K, E, Johnlock) Fuelled with post-case adrenaline, Sherlock takes a risk and shows John Watson what he really wants. The pair fall into a whirlwind romance, filled with laughter, cases and lovemaking, but without a solid foundation to build on. Six months later, John is left in the ruins, wondering where everything went wrong.
Treading Water by DiscordantWords (21K, T, Johnlock) As their personal and professional relationship slowly unravels under an intangible strain, a case forces Sherlock and John to spend the night inside the London Aquarium.
Thanks a lot for the rec :)

Trying to Find The In-Between by NoStraightLine
Summary: “DI Lestrade said Sherlock Holmes was a great man, and one day, if they were very lucky, he might be a good one. John Watson is many things, but lucky isn’t one of them. This is the story of how the impossible happens.”
I’ve had a hard time reading longer fics this year–my brain is letting plots dissipate between chapters. One solution has been one-shots, another has been rereading long fics I know well.
This is one superb ANGSTY hurt/comfort fic (technically a series) from 2013. Characterization rang so true before S3–and has held up brilliantly after S3 as well.
John and Sherlock’s relationship is physical before Sherlock jumps; John’s deeply in love but Sherlock doesn’t know it, and in any case, isn’t in love himself. But when he comes back–there’s a reckoning, there’s rage, and sorrow, and a very measured and very believable change of heart and healing.
It’s a superlative fic. The tension, the emotional intensity, and OMG the sex–the writer’s a magician, there’s no other possible explanation. There is more WHUMP here than can reasonably fit into 80K words. Trying to Find The In-Between is justly adored by its readers, and the comments and replies are a fantastic addition to the fic itself. We get lots of scenes the series skipped:
“Moriarty was involved in every revolting permutation of dehumanizing exploitation possible. He destabilized entire countries, bled money from struggling economies, financed heroin and cocaine pipelines all over the world. He bought women and children, traded them for drugs and guns, then sold those drugs and guns to addicts and warmongers who preyed on the weak and helpless and displaced.”
“Still not scared.” He smiles, and it’s John’s broken, helpless, indefatigable smile. “I invaded Afghanistan, remember? We spend our lives in the darkness most people don’t know about and would run from if they did. Unless you don’t want to remember what you did and saw, tell me. Please.”
His gaze locked with John’s, Sherlock waits another thirty seconds, then he begins. He picks up the tale where he left off, seeing John at the cemetery, and this time John doesn’t storm out. He watches Sherlock talk. Mirrored in his blue eyes is the emotional aftermath of everything Sherlock saw. Sherlock paces, gesticulates, draws diagrams, relates complicated relationships between law enforcement, criminals, the press, public world leaders and secretive terrorists. He tells John everything.
John’s watching, and Sherlock is very nearly fine.
Sherlock froze when John used we. When he started talking, he lit up like a fucking supernova confined only by pale English skin, and there he was, the man John loved (still does) but more. Intellect and intuition melding with heart and soul. It’s four in the morning before Sherlock winds down. John’s eyes are gritty with exhaustion, and his guts are tangled in knots from hearing Sherlock’s tale. He faced all of that alone, so terribly, heartbreakingly alone, and yet, after all of that, he chose to break and then heal, for John.

MASTURBATION / FROTTAGE
Erotic Beyond Belief by bloodsoakedleather (E, 748 w., 1 Ch. || Autofellatio, Masturbation, PWP, Anal Fingering, Shameless Smut, Establish Relationship) – John watches as Sherlock demonstrates a particular talent. Part 1 of Johnlock Porny Ficlets
John Will Never Know by bloodsoakedleather (E, 775 w., 1 Ch. || Fantasy John, Masturbation, PIning Sherlock, Sexual Fantasy, Rimming, Cock Sucking, John’s Red Pants, Pants Sniffing, Coming in Pants, Mild Kink) – Sherlock indulges in a spot of self gratification with the aid of a stolen pair of red pants. Part 2 of Johnlock Porny Ficlets
Sherlock's soldier!John Kink is Getting Out of Hand by wendymarlowe (E, 1,247 w. || Secret Crush, Military Kink, Masturbation) – Sherlock's got a secret kink. And a secret box where he hides his pictures of John in uniform. And a very, very secret crush on his flatmate.
Caught by Salambo06 (E, 1,859 w., 1 Ch. || Frottage, First Time / Kiss, Bed Sharing, Wet Dreams, POV John, Masturbation) – A hotel room. They’re here for a case, hadn’t planned to spend the night and ended up sharing a room. No, sharing a bed. Suddenly John is very much aware of his own hand closed around his hard cock and the ragged breathing next to him. Closing his eyes for the briefest second, John dares to turn his head just enough to confirm what he already knows. Sherlock, on his side, watching him.
Loudly Unspoken by Mount_Seleya (M, 1,871 w. || Post-TAB, Love Confessions, Vulnerable Sherlock, Frottage) – John confronts Sherlock about the words he left unsaid on the tarmac. Set immediately after TAB.
20 - Glide by distantstarlight (E, 1,937 w., 1 Ch. || Massages, Healing, Frottage, Friendship/Love, Natural Progression) – Sherlock is in pain so John comes up with a way to help ease it. It leads to a place they were always heading to. Part 20 of 31_Days_of_Porn_Challenge_2017
Through A Glass by Mildredandbobbin (M, 2,012 w., 1 Ch. || Voyeurism, Masturbation, First Kiss) – There is an adjoining door in the bathroom at 221B that leads into Sherlock’s bedroom. The door, from the bathroom to Sherlock’s bedroom, is made of three glass, semi-opaque panels. It has suddenly come to Sherlock’s attention that if he stands in exactly the right spot in his bedroom he can see through said panels, and more to the point, can see John.
Stay by sussexbound (M, 2,067 w., 1 Ch. || Post TAB, Suicidal Ideation Mention, Implied / Referenced Drug Use, Kissing, Love Confessions, Frottage, Coming in Pants) – “Why? Why did you do it? Hmm…?” He takes a deep breath, waits, lets it out again. “Look at me.” There’s no denying him when he takes this tone. “Why did you kill him? Hmm…? For her? After…” A muscle twitches in the corner of John’s eye, and he clamps his jaw down tightly, swallows and sniffs a little before continuing. “For her? After everything she’s done?” “For you.” Before he can even stop himself. Just like that.
Hell or High water by bluefire301175 (E, 2,250 w., 1 Ch. || PWP, Frottage, Alley Sex, First Person POV John, Case-ish Fic, Mutual Pining, Bed Sharing) – John wants. Sherlock wants. Plain and simple.
A Study in Lace by KarlyAnne (E, 2,320 w., 1 Ch. || Est. Rel., Crafty Sherlock, Tiny Lace Panties / Lingerie, Domestics, Experiments, Oral, Masturbation) – “Why do you suppose he was doing that?” “Why do I suppose who was doing what?” “The room. The lace. The secrecy. He was playing with fire in everything he did, and didn’t care one bit. But he had a secret chamber, carefully concealed, solely for the purpose of making lace lingerie. Obviously for personal use. Why?" Part 1 of The Unintentional Crafts of Sherlock Holmes
Perfect Solo by Itsallfine (E, 2,384 w., 1 Ch. || Frottage, Fantasy, Sex Toys, Dirty Talk, Solo) – Sherlock couldn’t decide how he wanted to have John that night. (The one where Sherlock uses his box of sex toys to take himself apart in every way John might have him.)
Pillow Talk by 221b_hound (E, 2,925 w., 1 Ch. || Post-HLV, Est. Rel., Preening Sherlock, Limpet Sherlock, Frottage, Hand Jobs, Sex on Furniture, Scent Kink, Masturbation, Fluff, Soft Sherlock) – John gets home late from work and Sherlock is nowhere to be seen. John walks through the flat, distracted by memories of all the excellent sex they've been having, and finally finds Sherlock asleep in the upstairs room - apparently having fallen asleep mid-wank while inhaling the scent of John's pillow. Well, you should always finish what you start, John thinks... Part 3 of Lock and Key
Undercurrents by entanglednow (E, 2,996 w., 1 Ch. || PODFIC AVAILABLE || Disturbing Things, Crime Scene Fetish, Pseudo-Necrophilia, PWP, Masturbation) – “There, that's it, perfect, shut your eyes and don't move - and don't speak."
Right Foot Red by Irrevocably_Sherlocked (E, 3,089 w., 1 Ch. || First Time, Board Games, Frottage, Masturbation, Frottage, PWP) – ...ok, it’s juvenile, but at least it’s a game where touching is allowed. And if something more were to happen, well, John can’t say he’d be too upset about that. “What are the rules of this game?” Sherlock asks, the disdain evident on the word ‘game’. “I spin, you do as I say.” John thinks he sees a slight widening of those pale grey eyes at that, just for a fraction of a second, before it is shut down. Oh, this is interesting, he thinks.
Untouched by KittieHill (E, 3,239 w., 1 Ch. || Kissing, Frottage, Virgin Sherlock, Body Worship, Sherlock’s Scars Mentioned, Masturbation, PWP, Rimming, Multiple Orgasms) – Sherlock leaked a lot. John had never needed lubricant. John loved watching it, had once spent an entire afternoon edging Sherlock so he could watch as the thick precome drip, drip, dripped onto Sherlock's belly.
It Wasn't Just the Mistletoe by Irrevocably_Sherlocked (E, 3,593 w., 1 Ch. || Christmas Fluff, Mistletoe, First Kiss / Time, Frottage, Masturbation) – Sherlock and John just stood there, seemingly frozen. Sherlock was desperately trying to think of a way out of this. There was no way he could kiss John, even a small kiss, and not have him know immediately how he felt. Sherlock could lie, and fake and sham, but there was no way he could hide this.
Coldness/Heat by agirlsname (E, 3,790 w., 1 Ch. || Cuddling & Snuggling, Body Heat, New Year’s Eve, PWP, Bedsharing, Frottage) – The inn is booked up on New Year's Eve. The train home is cancelled because of the snow. The only option is to sleep in the non-heated guest room of a client, and John and Sherlock are freezing.You know where this is going. Part 1 of New Year's Kiss
Lingerie by Sexxica (E, 4,135 w., 1 Ch. || Valentine’s Day, Lingerie / Women’s Underwear, Mildly Public Masturbation, Picture Texting / Sexting, Bottomlock, Body Worship, Anal Sex / Fingering, Rimming, Orgasm Delay / Denial, Est. Rel.) – It's Valentines Day and Sherlock is taking John to Angelo's for dinner. Sherlock also happens to be wearing a garter belt, stockings and a rather small pair of women's underwear under his clothes. There's no dessert at Angelo's because John needs to get Sherlock home just as quickly as he can before they both lose their minds entirely.
Obsession, Appassionato by shinychimera, Yeomanrand (E, 4,249 w., 1 Ch. || Possessive Sherlock, First Time, Jealous Sherlock, Music / Sherlock’s Violin, Present Tense, Frottage) – John is late, and he hasn’t called, and Sherlock works himself into a state. Part 1 of Love and Ysaye
Private Rituals by justacookieofacumberbatch (buffyholic) (E, 4,377 w., 1 Ch. || Masturbation, Anal, Light BDSM, Military Kink) – Sherlock has a very specific masturbation ritual, but what would John think of it?
Everything by patternofdefiance (E, 4,409 w., 1 Ch. || Snuggles and Cuddles, Bed Sharing, Frottage, Vulnerable Sherlock) – John wakes up with an armful of Sherlock. This – situation – is unusual, yes, and definitely unfamiliar, but in no way does it feel wrong. Rather, it feels the exact opposite. Part 13 of I Blame Tumblr
Carry On by Mazarin221b (M, 4,647 w., 1 Ch. || 5 and Ones, H/C, Afghanistan, Frottage, Hand Jobs, First Time, Drunk John, Hospitals, Humour, Soft Sex) – Five times John didn't want to be carried, and one time he did.
Sherlock and John Go Clubbing by wendymarlowe (E, 4,716 w., 3 Ch. || Clubbing, Dirty Talk, Dancing, Coming Untouched, Coming in Pants, Bi John, For a Case, Friends to Lovers, Flirting, Sherlock is Lost for Words, Sexy John, Mutual Pining, Possessive John, Floor Sex/Hand Job/Frottage) – John pinched the bridge of his nose - even for Sherlock, this was a new level of no bloody boundaries. “You want me to go with you to a gay club, wait around twiddling my thumbs while I let you get pawed by a criminal, then out-flirt him and talk you into coming home with me instead?” Part 32 of John and Sherlock's Kinky First Times
