Home when you are blocked from going back becomes a process of memory and looking at where you find yourself. First person narration. Delicately constructed.

"The point is, at the end of the day I can tell you a lot more about their music -- unsurprisingly based on octaves -- and their math, which is in octal just like the Ancients' -- but not a damn thing about the location of this planet's stargate."

Summary
John's mind was already made up, but he couldn't resist yanking Rodney's chain a little bit. "Hmm," he said. "A room full of physicists; a long-winded presentation I probably won't understand. Yeah, it doesn't really sound like fun."

Summary
The door gave way with a crack, and several large, armed men stepped into the room. They stared at Aziraphale for a long moment. A few glanced at each other, and one muttered something. The closest one drew his sword.
And then a familiar voice said, “Aziraphale?”
Aziraphale is a monk at Lindisfarne. Crowley is a Viking.

Summary
John's anger at Sherlock over Mary's death meant a long break in their friendship, and it’s only precariously patched up. But now he's back in the sitting room of Baker Street, listening to a plump little bookseller and his dire-looking companion explain why they need Sherlock to help them find a certain boy before the impending End Of The World.
Rains of fish, violin playing, fast driving in a Ford Fiesta, and Sherlock and John working out what they mean to each other in the shadow of Armageddon.

Domestic and oblivious, it takes a youngster to place JW in front of the obvious facts. Flat. Flat hunting. Grief. Patient Sherlock waits.

Now is not the time to say something.

Summary
"So," John says, a bit hesitantly, as Sherlock takes a sip of his drink, "You and Molly-?"
"No," Greg says, emphatically, "No."
"Please," Sherlock scoffs, placing his drink back down, "Look at him. Really look."
(Sherlock makes some deductions about Greg's personal life. He misses one small detail).

Summary
Just because Sherlock stopped, doesn't mean the Work has to. London is John's city now and he will keep it together with stitching, string, his healing, the food off his table, and sometimes the clothes off his back. John Watson keeps going. He's good at that.

Bookmarker's Notes
Whole entire life of Watson following the loss of SH. Surgery & London life as hands on events. An exceptional doctor works through urban danger of the day to day sort. It's relationships and fellowship and heartbreak. There's also a crime to sort.

Summary
Sherlock isn't really sure why John wants to shag him, but he's certain that if he's careful to behave properly about it, John can be persuaded to keep doing it.
In other news, John is a good boyfriend and Sherlock is an idiot.

Oblivious Sherlock. In-charge friendly John. Classic resolution to the "are you serious I wish you were" idea. Its cute. Short grounded read for a feel better effect.

Oblivious, emotional journey. Caring but cautious there's obstacles and oceans. A longer, intense read to resolve the emotional drama. Sherlock is introduced to crap video games. Janine is awesome.

The absolute standard classic explanation of feelings; rom com with crime and growing self-awareness going hand in hand with oblivious confidence. I first read this when originally posted, and return years later to find the art, podcasts and translations. Its loved as much by the world as by me.

How a few words can direct a revelation. In the style of the original but less stiff. A lovely emotional turning point expressed elegantly. Rainy afternoon read. Two adults becoming closr to each other. Lovely!
