Five Fics Friday: January 9/26
Happy Friday everyone!! I hope you all had a good week, and are ready to start off the weekend with these fics! Enjoy!!
Simon (or: Love Calls You by Your Name) by saintscully (M, 3,333 w., 1 Ch. || Post-TFP, Established Relationship, Fluff) – John bumps into Simon. The Simon. Five times in one night Simon. (A presumptuous little epilogue for scullyseviltwin's "the suffering that is weathered", and yes, you should probably read it).
Purposeful Guidance by Lock_John_Silver (T, 6,081 w., 6 Ch. || Five and One, POV Mrs Hudson, Developing Relationship, Diary / Journal, Matchmaker Mrs Hudson, Idiots in Love, Writing, Baking, Museums, Dancing, Roses, Texting, Sherlock Backstory, Protective Mycroft, Brotherly Love) – The New Year's Concert from Vienna is over, and Mrs Hudson marvels in the fact that both Sherlock and John are on the right track. At long last! Part 6 of Mrs. Hudson's diary Series
Flattened By Your Interest by J_Baillier (T, 6,675 w., 1 Ch. || Christmas, Angst, Eventual Romance, Creepy Mycroft, Miscommunication, Loneliness, Eventual Romance, Friends to Lovers, Light Case Fic) – A Christmas story of male escorts, rotting corpses, drunken sisters and hopeless romance. What else would we expect from John Watson and Sherlock Holmes?
SUPERNATURAL CROSSOVER MFLs
Angel of Darkness by cucoo4cas (NR, 45,016 w., 26 Ch. || SuperWhoLock Crossover || Case Fic) – When Team Free Will goes to England on a confusing case, they aren't expecting to cross paths with Sherlock Holmes and The Doctor or to go to Purgatory again. Together, they face new enemies and unexpected challenges. After SPN's "Do You Believe in Miracles?", before DW's "The Day of the Doctor", and after Sherlock's "His Last Vow." Pairings: Destiel, 11/River, Johnlock, Sabriel.
I'll Shake Hands With You In Hell by twisting_vine_x (E, 54,949 w., 8 Ch. || Supernatural Crossover || Post-TRF, Alcohol Abuse, Suicidal Ideation, Implied Torture, Violence, Language, Angst) – Less than two months after what the press have deemed ‘The Reichenbach Suicide’, John Watson makes a deal that condemns his soul to Hell for eternity. At the same time, Team Free Will – still struggling to send the leviathans back to Purgatory – stumbles upon a clue that leads them across the ocean, and straight into the path of two men who are desperately seeking a way to prevent Hell from collecting its due. The result – an intersection of these two separate worlds, and the teaming up of some unlikely allies – is the story of how John Watson’s life collides with the world of demons and monsters, and of how he and Sherlock are given one final chance to make things right between them, even as a dangerous web begins to tighten its hold around London, and John’s clock starts to steadily tick down the days to his last night on Earth.
