Summary
When Sherlock Holmes dies, Mycroft Holmes goes back to being a pillar of the British government. Anderson loses his mind. John Watson shuts down harder than a crashed computer.
But Sally Donovan?
The doorbell of her flat rings in the middle of the night.
Sally is about ready to ream out whatever fool showed up at her doorstep, ringing her doorbell, at fucking midnight, but then she stops when she sees who the lanky shadow lingering on her stoop is.
Sherlock Holmes, curls a sodden mess, the moonlight glimmering against his dark hair, against his eyelashes, against his moon-pale skin.
A ghost, she thinks at first, and yet—
She reaches out and pokes him, and he flinches, because he’s alive.
He’s alive.
“I have half a mind to fucking slap you,” Sally says, and she means it, the way that the words hiss from between her lips, and Sherlock doesn’t even have the decency to flinch.
(Sherlock calls Sally an old friend of his. Things go back far further than most people would expect, especially considering their reputation for hating each other—and when he has to fake his own death, there is one person not on Moriarty's list that he can turn to.)

Summary
A case forces John Watson and Sherlock Holmes into a marriage of convenience in a quiet, rain-soaked village. What begins as strategy slowly unravels into something far more dangerous—something real.
But somewhere between shared tea, soft glances, and the quiet weight of a ring that was never meant to matter… something changed.
Sherlock chose this long before he realised it.
John is still pretending he hasn’t.Bookmarked by greyquin

Summary
The face staring back at him was hard, cold, and familiar in the most painful ways.
His lungs constricted leaving him feeling breathless at the sight and his vision frayed at the edges—either from the sudden lack of oxygen or tears, he didn’t know—and his hands trembled like he’d touched a live wire.
He spent his remaining breath on a single word that felt more like a choke.
“John.”
or
The one where John didn't meet Mary in the years following the Riechenbach Fall, and instead finds himself tangled in a web of criminality, hard choices, and bad decisions. And Sherlock now has to save the man who has always been the one doing the saving.
