Summary
A series on minor vandalism events shouldn't be enough to interest Sherlock Holmes - different neighbourhoods and clearly unrelated.
Or so John thought.
When events take a hateful turn, Sherlock and his Boswell become the center of one of the most sickening hate crimes to take place in London, in more ways than one.

Summary
John wasn’t used to the silence. He caught himself noticing it again and again, which is something he never even realised was possible. He reckoned it was natural, to notice the absence of something. Especially when it used to be so disruptive.
He made a face. Not disruptive. Yet, he couldn’t think of an adjective for it.
--------
A Post-Reichenbach fic. John is tired of seeing the people he loves dying. Mariana has good advice.
Title is from the song "Unknown/Nth" from Hozier -

Summary
Sherlock Holmes miluje Johna Watsona a John Watson miluje Sherlocka Holmese. To je snadná rovnice, kterou není třeba vyřešit. I navzdory tomu je problém postoupit na další cílovou rovinu.
Sherlock je trpělivý a chápavý, za to Johnova frustrace je den ode dne sžíravější. Tak proč není schopný intimity bez výhrad? Vážně je takový problém, že není gay?
Nakonec je to právě Sherlock, jeho trpělivost, ochota a otevřenost, které mu pomůžou si uvědomit, co vlastně může mít. A co doopravdy chce. -

Summary
“Sherlock needs to see that there is still something worth fighting for. Otherwise we will lose him forever.”
“Are you sure it’s not too soon? What if all this pushes him deeper down?” asked John, quite concerned.
Mycroft hesitated, his gaze betraying a hint of concern that he rarely let slip. “At that point, we will have done everything in our power.”
John nodded again, determined. “All right, then. I'll be there. I’ll always be there for him.”
Serendipity brought Sherlock and John together, but a terrible incident tore them apart for ten years. Now that fate has thrown that card back across the table for them to play again, they're both carrying the incurable wounds of their past.
Will they be able to overcome the past and rediscover the love they once shared, or will half truths and too many lies continue to keep them apart? -

Summary
After everything—Sherrinford, loss, silence—Sherlock Holmes takes a case he claims is for boredom. A letter, delivered after death, a message too late: "I loved you my whole life."
Sherlock understands. All too well.
As he and John follow the mystery, grief and longing bleed into every word they don’t say. But the truth is harder to deny when it stares back in ink, in old journals, in one final kiss in a quiet hallway. Nothing is solved. But maybe love doesn’t need solving—only the courage to begin.
