10 Fics that stayed with you
I was tagged by kedgeree11
Rules: In a text post, list ten FICS that have stayed with you in some way. Don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard — they don’t have to be the “right” works, or even all the same pairing or fandom, just the fics that have touched you or that stuck with you somehow. Tag ten friends, including me, so I’ll see your list. Make sure you let your friends know you’ve tagged them!
Picking just ten fics without some sort of theme seemed like an impossible task. Rather than a list of greatest hits, here’s my list: ten fics that have stayed with me…because they were the hottest things I’ve ever read (and re-read).
I'm probably revealing way, way too much about myself with this post, but oh well.
Explicit ratings on all of these. All utterly lacking in plot.
In Practice – greywash (fizzygins)
Irene helps John and Sherlock figure it out. Greywash was one of the first fic writers I really loved. The Good Morrow series is one of the fics I read early on that turned my into a Johnlock lover for life. But this fic, oh man I love this fic. Everyone in this fic is just so damn sexy, there’s just no other way to say it.
Take a Bite of My eart Tonight – abundantlyqueer
From the Two Two One Bravo Baker world, this one is McMath/Henn, about whom I wish there were a thousand fics. I like to call this one old reliable. If you know what I mean, and of course you know what I mean.
Six Crates of Beer and One Cigarette, iampeevee, persiflager
I don’t generally like John with anyone but Sherlock, but I make an exception here, because John is very young and I tell myself, just hasn’t met Sherlock yet. But he’s met Lestrade and they have a very hot time together.
Voice Controlled – corpsereviver2
John and Sherlock aren’t even in the same country, so you know what that means? Dirty talk. Lots of filthy, hot dirty talk. Yum.
Morning Glory – corpsereviver2
Yes, I have two CR2 fics on this list. What can I say? She writes very, very hot fics. I looooove this one. Omegaverse. Features John doing things with his hands that has brought me back to this fic again and again.
Spoils of War – sweetcupncakes (vaginal-diabetus)
Normally, domination stuff doesn’t do much for me, but mmm, there’s something about Captain John Watson in full command that is just irresistible.
No Sense of Decency – mistyzeo
Prior to reading this fic, I didn’t think I’d touch RPF with a ten-foot pole. But goddamn this fic is so incredibly hot. Don’t like RPF? You’ll like this. I promise.
I Don’t Know Why (I Didn’t Think of it Before) - doodle
This fic is filthy and glorious.
Choice – heeroluva
By far the kinkiest fic on my list, I approached this fic with trepidation the first time I read it. I thought there was no way I’d find it anything but squicky. But it is scorchingly hot. (Read the tags, not for the faint of heart). Filthy, but at the same time filled with affection and love. Marvelous.
Shameless – 1electricpirate (rumregrets)
So much shameless, filthy dirty talk here. Just a delight from start to finish.
I tag... earlgreytea68, mydwynter, antietamfalls, watsonsdick, graceebooks, avawatson, mamajosrefugium, kestrel337, taylorpotato, and northray -- though I'm pretty sure some of you have done this one already. Still, it is mightily fun, so please feel free to consider yourself tagged if you've read this far!?
