Take What We’re Given by Solitary_Endeavor, 22 k, explicit. Magnussen doesn’t flick John’s face. He doesn’t touch either of them. He finds it much more amusing to tell John to flick Sherlock’s face. Because then it’s John hurting Sherlock to keep Mary safe, and Sherlock letting him. That’s real leverage.The commands start with face flicking. They get worse.

On the other side in the spirit world, Sherlock is an Incubus that faces a serious problem: He does not feel sexual attraction. Faced with a need to eat after denying himself for nearly a year, Sherlock does not expect himself to take interest in another Demon’s prey, of all things.
The Virgin and the Prostitute by cheshirecat101, 22 k, explicit. Falling in love with a prostitute always ends badly, but Sherlock Holmes can’t help falling in love with Preferred Escort John Watson. It’s only when a mystery client named RB gets involved that things get complicated. Fluff.
