The problem by Cynthia K. Coe

Submitted by: aidan bard

from the author:Sherlock Holmes solves a problem of the heart - only to come up against a more mundane mystery involving a German Baron.
I like the characters who come out just right. Reads like a regular Arthor Conan Doyle with gay sex.

Here is a wonderful little Christmas tale about - as Watson says - "the last Christmas I spent as flat mate to Sherlock Holmes." It has just the right amount of angst, with a perfect end for a holiday story.

This is a truly, heart-achingly sublime fic. Wonderfully in character and completely believable, it is, like everything Katie Forsythe writes, truly amazing.
The Whore of Babylon Was A Perfectly Nice Girl by out_there

Infiltrate (tear down the walls and the gate) by SkipandDi
Series: Sherlock Holmes
Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson
Submitted by: Zilence
Rec ID: 02096
(BBC version) This is a moment Sherlock will look back to time and again as the future stalks forward; an instance he will use to justify his actions, the decisions he will make. He had known Moriarty was working solely for his attention, even John had recognized as much during the first assault. But Sherlock has been a fool, a dangerous, incompetent fool, because this is so far beyond all that. It always has been.
A Reliable Man by randomly_rusted
Series: Sherlock Holmes
Pairing: Mycroft/Lestrade
Submitted by: Thaia
Rec ID: 02100
(BBC version) This series is a more realistical take on how two men like Mycroft Holmes and DI Gregory Lestrade may arrive in a relationship. Beware! randomly_rusted presents no sweet fairytale but two beautifully characterized, flawed personalities that clash quite a few times, before they find themselves drawn to each other.

The link goes to the index of stories of the series. I recommend reading them all.
