Hello! I was wondering if you know any good pocket John fics? Thanks!

- nerdsaremyarea

Pocket John is precious, and I need more of this AU. And Pocket Sherlock. Please. 

Of the AO3 tag for Pocket John, these are my favourite:

Sherlock and Pocket John (PG - 16 513) **Each chapter can be read like an independent fic, for the most part. 

Sherlock ends up adopting pocket!John from the store. These are their adventures together.

The Dollhouse (E - 31 330)

Sherlock reverses a machine he had been working on- to enlarge atoms for analysis- to shrink down the people he cares about and hide them from Moriarty. After two years in virtual isolation John and Greg are desperate for a little loving... and some big loving.

Ever heard of a fic where Mycroft tries to seduce John to prove to Sherlock that he (Sherlock) is in love with John?

Sorry, anon, I haven’t! :< 

Can’t find one, either. 

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

I really love At First He Is A Boy by nomdeplume. Do you have any other stories set in another time period, besides Victorian?

Here’s the fic mentioned, and here’s some other Historical AUs! Also, check out our tag for this here!

I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You (E - 177 077, ongoing) **1950s

There's a new boy in high school determined to make John's life a mess. Who would have thought how this would end up? 

Owning Your Destiny (T - 17 551, ongoing) **Medieval 

Prince Sherlock Holmes of the Baker S clan had just turned 21. That meant many things, but the most important one was that there was going to be a competition to win his hand. Three princes had accepted to take part in that abominable challenge. But he wasn't ready to give up his destiny so easily!

Among tests, evil plans, and conversations in the moonlight maybe Sherlock would end up changing his mind, though.

Maybe...

A Further Sea (E - 125 518) **Pirates - 1700s?

Here be a tale of adventure for both body and soul, but beware if ye be not of stout heart, for this be piratelock, ya savvy? Luckless ship's surgeon John Watson takes a chance, and finds himself eye to eye with The Ghost, the scourge of the seven seas and a definite thorn in the side of the blaggard, James Moriarty. But when John finds there's more to this most cunning pirate than be meetin' the eye, he has to choose--is it a pirate's life for him?

Width of a Circle (E - 57 771, ongoing) **1970s

The year is 1974. When John Watson, doctor-in-training, wanders into a seedy bar, he has no idea there's a band about to play, much less that his life is going to change completely. When Sherlock Holmes hits the stage and reads John like a book during his performance, John knows he's found something amazing. But Sherlock's history with a brilliant madman could threaten not only the way he and John see each other, but their lives, their sanity, and the safety of everyone in London.

Lucky Break (E - 30 300) **Medieval

Sherlock injures himself while on the run from his brother. John finds him and insists on caring for him.

[johnlockfics]

There was this one fic that had Sherlock ruining John's dates with various girlfriends just for fun (or so he said) but then John gets a boyfriend and Sherlock was really jealous and he didn't understood why??? I remember literally nothing else please help

Maybe one of these?

Maybe Sherlock Should Ruin John’s Dates More Often

Five Times Sherlock Cockblocked John (and one time he almost cockblocked himself)

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

Do you have any fics staring Three Continents Watson?

Boy do I!

John ‘Three Continents of Food’ Watson (E - 499) **This one was too ridiculous not to add

John 'Three Continents' Watson wasn't talking about his experience with women (and/or men), but with the various food stuffs he's fucked.

Sherlock Discovers “Three Continents Watson” (E - 13 627)

When Sherlock learns what John "Three Continents" Watson's army nickname is for, he realizes he's got the perfect opportunity for a first-hand experiment in physical passion from the one person he can actually stand to be touched by. John thinks there might be a bit more to it than that.

Stripped Bare (E - 18 856)

Posh pretty-boy Sherlock Holmes, danseur extraordinaire, never expected to be swept off his feet the night he deigned to visit a strip club. But then he never expected to meet John Watson, soldier and erotic dance god.

In Arduis Fidelis (E - 18 628)

Once upon a time John was a Soldier and a Doctor. And he was known John or Doc or Doctor. But things change. And he *earned* his right to the name "Three Continents Watson".

Three Continents Watson (E - 16 013)

A few years after his death, the discovery of a personal journal of Dr. John Watson, 9th Earl of Saughton, sheds a different light on the Good Doctor.

First off, you're just awesome so I hope you're doing well. Ok so I think I've mentioned this story before but I'm not sure and couldn't find it on your page. It's been awhile since I've seen it and I only read the first chapter, but Sherlock has this power where whenever he touches someone (either dead or alive) he sees their entire lives and that's why he wheres gloves. I think the title had something to do with the color orange but I'm not 100% on that

Sorry love, I’ve looked everywhere. Could you remember what site you’ve read it on? 

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

Hey! I was wondering if you could please find me any fics where Sherlock is attracted to John, but doesn't understand that he is, so John helps him figure it out.

I think these are what you’re looking for!

Lead and Follow (E - 15 048)

There are some things that Holmes quite simply does not understand.  This particular gap in his knowledge must be rectified.

Building Temptations (M - 3258, ongoing)

John pushes the limits of what is acceptable between friends, attempting to reconcile his partnership with Mary and his unhealthy attraction to Sherlock. Sherlock tries to understand why he feels the need to keep bringing John back into his everyday life. Temptation and denial abounds.

Something To Talk About (E - 5901)

Sherlock can't understand why he always does what his flatmate asks. For once, John is the observant one, but he needs a plan. Enter: The NSY holiday party, too much punch, and a karaoke contest.

Flower Language (PG - 926)

John knows that Sherlock understands flowers and the symbolism behind them. When he makes the decision to start getting the detective to look at their relationship differently, he is frustrated by the response he gets from Sherlock. Sherlock doesn't understand....until he does.

I read a fic a while back and want to reread it , but can't find it anywhere! Sherlock let's John in on the fall, and they go to america to take down Moriarty's people there. Sherlock starts making drugs (for money and to infiltrate the ring) but they eventually get found out and have to flee to the other side of the country. Any ideas? Thank youuuuuu

The closest one I can find is this? 

Home (T - 4575)

John finds out Sherlock had been alive this whole time, and everyone knew except him.He also finds that moving out doesn’t necessarily mean he is moving on.

However, I know it’s not right.

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

Thanks much to alexabarton for identifying this one so long ago!! 

It’s nice to have the correct fic on the blog. :>

Renegades (E - 39 405)

Sherlock Holmes takes down Moriarty’s syndicate. He also takes John Watson with him. AU of The Reichenbach Fall.

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

okaythenlove answered your question “Updates:”

seconding swissmissing; not sure what a fic jam is. but! i'm happy you are feeling better :-) take care.

If you haven’t seen it, I’ve posted a small FAQ here!

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

I'm looking for a fic where John gets a panic attack at his wedding when he imagines what his life with Mary is gonna be like and runs away leaving her at the altar, and moves back with Sherlock Could you please help me?

Is it one of these? 

Out of Time (T - 3163)

Somerset is a lovely place for a wedding, but what John hadn't accounted for was the getting everyone there.

The Present Moment Is All You Have (NR - 4726)

If John had realized sooner he was marrying the wrong person and if he could change a thing about it, he would in a heart beat.

- Kat

[johnlockfics]

Hi so there is a fanfic that I can't find and i have been looking for it for ages and it' basically the movie "If only", the one where the girl dies after a fight with his bf in a car crash (taxi) and the very next day the bf wakes up and she is there but he notices that stuff from the day before are happening and no matter what he does the girl will die anyway so he prepares like the best day ever and then they both are in the taxi and in the fanfic john is like the bf

This is the closest one I can find, and I’m almost 100% sure this isn’t it, but perhaps this will entertain you nonetheless:

Waking You Up (T - 12, 458)

John dies and Sherlock blames himself, so much so that the guilt begins to affect his life. However, he keeps getting dreams of John talking to him and assuring him that he's not dead. 

Sorry, love.

I'm thirsty for time travel au, is there any good ones?

Just a Jump to the Left (E - 5799)

Sherlock has made a lot of mistakes in his relationship with John. The time machine being the least of them.

The Curious Case of the Adventures Drs. Watson (M - 40, 883)

“Imposter!” Hands clenching the lapels of John’s coat, Holmes shoved him anew. “Yes!” John agreed, nodding, and then grimacing. “Sort of!”

Iris (E - 11, 302)

John Watson was quickly learning to hate the Victorian Era. It wasn’t just the lack of proper medical care… Although that was a rather large component. It was the filth. It was the misery and the lack of regard for human life.

Ok… So maybe the lack of proper medical care was a major component. It was difficult being a 21st century medical doctor stuck with 19th century technology.

September 20th (T - 10, 111)

Sherlock keeps reliving the same day. He isn't very happy about it.

I Burn For You (E - 9639)

Sherlock blinked at the eyepiece, sitting up as if startled by my voice. There was no mistaking the man. Except something was different… His clothing was much like my own. It looked elegant on him. His hair was slicked back, not a curl on his brow. The same pale eyes stared at me as they always did… But these were full of concern. “Watson?”

I got up from the settee and approached the table. “Sherlock… Why is everything so different?”

I'm trying to find a johnlock au where John is a dentist Ever heard of that?

I have now, anon.

Dentist John:

Swallow (E - 2141)

Sherlock needs to get a root canal. The procedure leading up to it goes differently than he thought it would. He's incredibly happy with the way things turned out.

John's a hot dentist. He gets his cock sucked. Sloppily.

Fics Involving Dentistry:

Pulling Teeth (G - 7613) **Dentist Sherlock

John had always hated going to the dentist. Ever since he was a little boy, he’d hated it. But this time's different. This trip to the dentist was one that he'd never forget.

Puppy Tails -Dentist (PG - 464)

John has a filling.

Holding Hands (T - 647)

Sherlock has to go to the dentist.

Hi! I'm looking for a johnlock fic with D/s relationship that I've read once at AO3. I remember only a scene where one of them were chasing the other in the forest.

Ahh jeez. I’ve been searching for this one since before I disappeared. It’s frustrating, because I know I’ve read it. 

If anyone knows it, send it my way, please?
