Hi Steph!!

Secret spy John Watson fics?

Thank you!! ❤️

Hi Lovely!!

Oh gosh, hmm. I have a REALLY old VERY small list of Spy John fics there, a small master post here for Secret Agents, and a Bondlock Community Recs List here

Swissmiss has a Wholock / Bondlock Rec list, and Alexx also has a Bondlock Fic Rec list as well!

I'd love more fics though, if you guys got them!!

Sherlock is so in love with John, oh my Lord. 😭 I have really tried to repress these feelings since TFP but it's impossible to hold back any more. LET HIM HOLD AND KISS HIS JOHN!

^(this one makes me giggle because he’s just a stroppy little head in a window)

John approves of your sentiments!

OOps, I made this a face journey, (not) Sorry!

Five Fics Friday: March 15/24

It's already the Ides of March! Where is time going?!?! BAH Anyway, if you're not able to make the annual Caesaring, why not check out these fantastic fics recently added to my Marked for Later list?? Enjoy!

RECENT MFLs

Pretty Paper by stopthat (G, 2,581 w., 2 Ch. || Post-TRF, Reunions, POV Sherlock, Idiots in Love, Friends to Lovers, Christmas/New Year's, Hugs, Emotional Hurt / Comfort, First Kiss, Cuddling / Snuggling, Conversations) – It isn't even Christmas. “Come home with me.” For good, he means, but he does not say it.

Body Of Years by LipstickDaddy (T, 3,815+ w., 3/? Ch. || WiP || TEH Fix It, Violence, Blood and Injury, Sherlock Whump, Mutual Pining, Angst with Happy Ending) – Sherlock has been dead for two years, fighting to stay alive each day to see John again. So, when he comes back to London and sees John about to close the door on their life together, he reaches a breaking point.

An Erotic Sail by justacookieofacumberbatch (E, 4,533 w., 2 Ch. || Sugar Daddy AU || Age Difference, Sugar Daddy John, Yacht Daddy John, Praise Kink, Porn Without Plot, Boat Sex) – Sherlock, fresh off a Semester at Sea ship in Crete, sees a gorgeous older man, and I'm sure you can guess what happens next.

All Our Gifts At Once, or, the Young Sea-man by tiltedsyllogism (T, 48,119 w., 9 Ch. || Victorian Little Mermaid AU || Sacrifice, Pining, Angst, Realistic Fairy Tale, Bittersweet, Botany, Gardens) – John Watson, storyteller and shipwright's son, walks way from his entire life in Portsmouth to follow the mysterious Sherlock Holmes to London.

Damnatio Memoriae by lovetincture (E, 55,098 w., 20 Ch. || Psychopathology, Sociopathy, Sadism) – Sherlock Holmes is a sociopath and a sadist, and he’s in love with John Watson. He also wants to torture him. John is surprisingly okay with this, with one caveat: He doesn’t want to remember any of it. A loving, healthy relationship, with the occasional torture session courtesy of dubiously legal pharmaceuticals. It’s all fine. Or, it would be fine, if an old enemy didn't have designs of his own on the both of them. Did it really happen if you don’t remember? Part 1 of Damnatio Memoriae

Hi Steph!! Love your blog🥰Imma ESL reader so it’s really helpful and really amazing!

I’m wondering if there are some fic where Sherlock is a medical worker and he meets John at the workplace?

Im sooooo obsessed with this idea but I cannot find any thing on AO3😿

Do you have some recommendations for this kind of fic? Does it even exist?🤯

Thanks for your ask, Lovely!

https://www.tumblr.com/ao3topshipsbracket/748309772888162304/tumblr-top-ships-bracket-round-1-side-1?source=share

Hey Nonny!

Oh, fun LOL. I mean I personally think Johnlock should win, but I don't know the dynamic of other ship so I'm biased LOL.

It's losing right now, so go vote! :D

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hi Steph ❤

Do you know of any 'survival' vibe fics?

I'm thinking something like 'Northwest Passage'.

Thanks for all you do for us ❤

Hi Nonny!!

I do!!! I have a couple lists, actually, that I made a couple years ago:

Survival Fics

Island Survival Fics

If ANYONE has additional fics since 2022, PLEASE feel free to suggest some!! <3

And thank you for your kind words, Nonny!! <3

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Our fandom forbearers did NOT suffer through Anne Rice, strikethrough, and other bullshit for fucking ACOTAR and Harry Potter fans to fucking ruin it for all of us by selling fanfiction. I am not losing novel length yaoi epics because some of you don't know how to act in fannish spaces and yes I do blame the booktokification of fanfic but I also blame those of you that treat fandom like content to consume and not a community to engage with.

[inevitably-johnlocked]

i have been losing sleep looking for this dumb fic. its old, it had johnlock and mormor (i know sebastian was in it), it was omegaverse (omega john iirc), john was kidnapped by mormor, sherlock broke their bond to save john and iirc john didn't even know about their bond, it was explicit/nsfw, it's where i first learned about this rape aXe device i think??? is any of this ringing a bell?? or am i just going crazy???

Hi Lovely!

AHHHH So it SOUNDS familiar but I am not sure if I've read it or if it's one that was recced to me in the past. Anyone able to pinpoint this one for SoundWave??

Five Fics Friday: April 26/24

Happy Friday everyone!!!! Hopefully we can start off the weekend right with these fantastic fics!! Hope y'all enjoy!!

RECENT MFLs

Hyperballad by PlantsAreNeat (G, 893 w., 1 Ch. || Angst, Feels, Drugs, POV Sherlock) – Sherlock has bought cocaine after his doubts and fears about his and John's new relationship prey on his mind. Not exactly a danger night, but not not one either.

Smoke by lifeonmars (T, 4,827 w., 1 Ch. || Marijuana, Recreational Drug Use, Fluff, Humour, Rock and Roll) – Sometimes time and space collide to show you something you've been missing. Sherlock's pipe helps.

A Thing With Peas by khorazir (M, 25,508+ w., 2/3 Ch. || Post-S3/Post-TLD/TFP Doesn't Exist, Fluff and Angst, Communication, Demisexual Sherlock, Asexuality, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Pining, Idiots in Love, Friends to Lovers, Developing Relationship, Implied / Referenced Drug Use, Parentlock, First Kiss) – Sherlock does the laundry. John cooks a thing with peas. They talk. Finally.

There I Saw You, Night by esplanade (T, 54,073 w., 12 Ch. || Writer AU || Poet Sherlock, Writer John, True Love, Sherlock's A Mess, Conversations, John's Family) – "It wasn't as if he had stopped writing entirely. Quite the opposite, in fact. It was just that most of what he wrote ended up thrown into the fireplace at home. What was the sense in keeping something that was sub-par?"

RECENTLY BOOKMARKED LOKIUS FIC

like a flood spills away as a world stains by RunnyYolk (T, 34,055 w., 4 Ch. || LOKI SERIES || S0103 Divergence, Alternating POV, Developing Friendship, Developing Relationship, Mutual Pining, Denial of Feelings, Feelings Realization, Trust Issues, Angst, Introspection, Slow Burn, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Existential Angst, Flashbacks, Recovered Memories, Psychological Torture/Abuse, Touch-Starvation, Affection, Tenderness, Hand Holding, Emotional Friendship, Hair Pulling, Touching, Softness) – Loki groans and his elbows slide forward as he slumps over the side of the desk. "Do not tell me you left all the signature fields blank again." "It makes it easier when I check." "It adds a ridiculous amount of time! Do you actually enjoy this part, is that it? Are you a masochist?" Mobius smirks, shaking his head, and stands up. "Just go to bed, scamp." Part 3 of where the edge began

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hii! Do you know any Johnlock fic that is based on Red, White and Royal blue? When I watched it, my first thought was that it would be a perfect Johnlock AU fic. Thank you!

Hi Lovely!

I thought I was asked this fairly recently but can't seem to find the post to link to, but ANYWAY, as far as I know, there aren't (I just double checked in the fandom tags on AO3 as well), but I do have a Royalty AUs (MFLs) fic list that you can check out that's better than nothing, I hope!!!!!!!

If anyone has one or is planning on writing one, please let us know!! <3

I was wondering if you know of anyplace where someone could request fics, or give prompts? Like, I am an awful writer unfortunately, but I have some ideas I'd love to see written. Every year I add bids where I can in FTH, But I've never had the good luck to win any. I don't know if there are writers who take commissions like artists do. But I thought if anyone would know it would be you! Oh I'm looking for Sherlock fics of course, if that matters, but maybe you or someone of your followers might know if there's just a place or blog that takes requests? Thank you if you have any help or directions for me.

Hey Nonny *HUGS*

Oooof I feel you on never winning auctions, LOL. I got lucky last year, hahah.

Ahhh, I don't recall specifically a prompt blog even though I feel like I've been told a few times, LOL. I know some writers come to my Writing Prompts tag for fic ideas so you're always welcome to submit them here, but I do know some authors DO take writing commissions, so this here is a callout for any of those authors who would like to do a commission or a prompt for Nonny, OR if anyone has a place they can submit prompts for fandom authors to peruse!! <3

*HUGS*

[inevitably-johnlocked]

hey steph! hope you’re well <3

i’ve recently had some surgery on my teeth and i was wondering whether you knew of any fics that have domestic johnlock with surgery recovery? the fluffier the better :)

lots of love! 💕

Hey Nonny!

Ahhh, these are the fluffy ones I can recall immediately:

Waiting and Recovery by A Wandering Minstrel (K+, 3,173 w. || H/C, Friendship) – Lestrade waits for news of Sherlock and John at the hospital. Mrs. Hudson looks after her boys. Two companion pieces.

They're Taking My Wisdom by whitchry9 (K+, 1,939 w., 1 Ch. || Hurt/Comfort, Drugging, Dentists, Friendship, Anxious Sherlock, Humour) – Sherlock goes to the dentist. Of course, being Sherlock, things have to be complicated. Oh and drugs. They're always fun.

The Healing Touch by inevitably_johnlocked (G, 2,307 w., 1 Ch. || Caretaking,  Domestic Fluff, Stroppy Sherlock, John Loves Sherlock, Love Confessions, Sofa Cuddles, Insecure Sherlock) – Sherlock's broken his foot and he's becoming unbearably stroppy. Good thing John has the healer's touch... ;) Part 3 of I-J's Tumblr Ficlet Collection

The Effect of Memory by testosterone_tea (E, 6,430 w., 1 Ch. || Praise Kink, First Kiss / Time, Fluff, Smut, Virgin Sherlock, Love Confessions, Confused Sherlock) – John has temporary amnesia coming off of anaesthesia after an operation and not only does he not recognize Sherlock, he starts flirting with him! After John recovers, he doesn’t remember the incident at all. But Sherlock does. Confusion ensues.

Here Comes The Sun by JennLynn77 (E, 32,126 w., 15 Ch. || Post S4/TFP, John Whump, Caring Sherlock, Emotional Hurt/Comfort, Friends to Lovers, Emotional Sex, First Time, Virgin Sherlock, Switchlock, Cuddling/Snuggling, Surgery/Injury Recovery, Endearments, Anal, Hand Jobs, Porn with Feels) – John suffers an injury and needs surgery. Sherlock, and those around him, help John recover. Along the way, John and Sherlock realise what they mean to each other, and what they've had together all this time.

-----

I have a few angsty ones too, just let me know. ALSO, check out these lists:

Amnesia / Memory Loss

Hospital Fics

Hospitals Pt 2

AND come back in an hour for another list you might like :)

AND, because I am a punny asshole:

Tooth-Rotting Fluff (Nov 2020 Masterpost)

Hope those help you out, and I hope your recovery goes well! If anyone else has fluffy recovery fics to suggest, please do!

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hi! Maybe this is too specific, but do you know of any fics in which John and Sherlock date, and then they break up and don't see each other for a long time, and then meet again randomly?

Thanks! <3

Hey Nonny!

Ah! Yes, this is Separation and Reconciliation Fics! That link will bring you to a post I had a few weeks ago asking for similar fics, and I think it will lead you to other fics you're looking for!! <3

As an aside I AM currently putting together a list that's taking me a long while (because I'm lazy) that is pulling all the fics on those posts together in one, but for now, those lists will help you out!

If anyone has other fics that they would like to add that Nonny will enjoy that's more catered to Nonny's request, PLEASE PLEASE do!!!!

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Chapters: ¼ Fandom: Sherlock (TV) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson Characters: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Mycroft Holmes, Harry Watson (mentioned), Sherlock Holmes’ Parents, Holmes Family - Character, Sebastian Wilkes Additional Tags: Fake/Pretend Relationship, accidental fake dating, Mistaken for Being in a Relationship, Oblivious Sherlock, Oblivious John, Friends to Lovers, Fluff, Christmas fic, holiday fluff, The tropes all the tropes, Sherlock’s parents aren’t nice, AU, Unilock, they’re just done with Uni but still Unilock, different first meeting, various sex acts between consenting adults, Alcohol, mention of past drug use, mention of alcoholism, Christmas fake dating romcom, Seriously Sherlock’s parents are the worst Summary:

Sherlock hates spending Christmas with his snobby parents. John has nowhere to go over the holidays. The heat in 221B is broken and their fridge is empty. Plus, Sherlock’s parents will hate John. So of course Sherlock takes John along. It’s not his fault that his parents assume John’s his boyfriend. Of course John is perfect and all, but Sherlock doesn’t do romance. So what harm can there be in pretending, if it makes his parents this mad?

Thank you darling wife @nuttersinc for the plot bunny, and thank you superstar @jrow for the beta.

This is my Christmas fic in April, people. It’s completely written, I’m posting the chapters as they come out of beta.

Tags under the cut as always, please let me know if you want to be tagged or untagged.

Well the Heritage series by chappysmom has a whole set of stories where one fact in John’s family, mostly his dad, is changed and that makes a world of difference. https://archiveofourown.org/series/39226

Just thought of another one. It’s an AU where John is a fiction author and Sherlock is a poet. Sherlock has a go round with John’s father in one chapter. There I saw You, Night by esplanade https://archiveofourown.org/works/9433325

====

Heritage Series by chappysmom(G, 226,000+ w. across 13 works || Series WiP || John’s Family / Past) – After the trip to Buckingham Palace, Sherlock finds out that maybe John's family background was different than he'd thought.

There I Saw You, Night by esplanade (T, 54,073 w., 12 Ch. || Writer AU || Poet Sherlock, Writer John, True Love, Sherlock's A Mess, Conversations, John's Family) – "It wasn't as if he had stopped writing entirely. Quite the opposite, in fact. It was just that most of what he wrote ended up thrown into the fireplace at home. What was the sense in keeping something that was sub-par?"

=====

Thank you!!!

Do you have an fic recs involving John’s dad in the present? He’s usually a character that’s deceased in most fics but I think it’d be super interesting to have his dad and Sherlock meet. Thanks!

Hey Nonny!

Ah, you know what? I don't recall any at all, to be honest, or at least none that I have read. I'm sure there are a few though!

Anyone able to help us out with finding a few fics for Nonny??
