  3. Summary

    Various quick Sherlock ficlets, typically canon compliant up through whatever detail I've decided to play with. All are stand-alones, some are fix-its, and others are just their own little thing.

    Summary

    They'd done huge, enormous, life-changing things together in the name of justice and truth. They’d also bickered endlessly while clothes shopping and choosing movies to watch, filling in the gaps between the big events with countless hours of minutia.

    But in all that time they'd never actually tried dating. Until Phoenix asked a week ago, and now it was tonight.

    Summary

    “You’re in love with me,” Phoenix accuses, index finger pointing and arm outstretched. Pink colors Miles’ high cheekbones. Perhaps there was a better way he could have phrased that, but Phoenix had just been working on his instincts. And his instinct with new, life altering information is, as always, to point, shout, and make a fool of himself.

     

    Miles, however, does not follow the script. He does not look like the villains on the witness stand, finally trapped. There is no ‘Graaagh!’ or ‘Ngoooh!’ There isn’t even a ‘Gurgk…’

     

    Instead, Miles is as placid as ever. “Yes,” he says, drawing out the 'e'. He has a tone of voice that implies that this is an obvious statement. “You know this, Phoenix,” he adds.

     

    A.K.A They're stupid, but they finally manage to get together, and then they get together.

    Summary

    Phoenix tried to distract himself while riding his bike to work. Tried to focus on how clear the sky was. On not accidentally hitting someone with his bike. On the leaves. On the same signs he saw everyday. On anything that wasn’t Edgeworth. He felt like his heart was coated in glass and it was cracking, piercing into the gentle flesh every time he moved. Eventually, he would bleed out. He hoped he would be numb by the time that happened.

    Or: The night before Edgeworth leaves for Germany, Phoenix falls into bed with him for the first time. When he wakes up alone, he grapples with their relationship.

    Summary

    “Phoenix,” Miles breathes, pushing him back an inch. “When does your lease end?”
    “Are you asking me to move in with you?” Phoenix blurts out, coming to his senses a bit. “Isn’t that kinda fast? For you, I mean.”
    “What do you mean by that?”
    “I mean, we’ve been, just, this for six years now. It’s always been casual.”
    Something between indignance and longing crosses Miles’ face.
    “Nothing I’ve felt for you has ever been casual.”
    Well then.
    “Oh. Okay,” Phoenix mumbles, trying not to melt into a puddle. It would be very hard to clean the carpet, after all.
    “Are you telling me,” Miles says in a low voice, “that you thought I was flying you halfway across the world as a fuck-buddy?”

     

    Miles Edgeworth shows up in L.A. at the beginning of Trucy's spring break.
