Sherlock Holmes was an exceptional pitcher who was a constant also-ran for all of the very best of baseball’s honors...He was brilliant, but he wasn’t quite all the way there yet, John thought. There was something he was missing.

Sherlock Holmes is a pitcher and John Watson is a catcher. No, no, no, it's a baseball AU.

When I’m trying to figure out if I like someone, like really like them, I always try to imagine how they’d react if we ever got stuck in a lift.

You’re On the Air by Prettysailorsoldier

The Consulting Detective and The Woman dominate the airwaves of their university radio station, doling out advice on everything from meeting the parents to sexual positions. When their ratings start to dip before the holidays, however, manager Mike thinks it's time for some fresh blood, and who better to fill in the gaps than rugby captain--and notorious flirt--John Watson?

Rec Notes: Hilarious and adorable. Watching Sherlock listen to John on the radio and try not to fangirl over him is honestly so relatable.

You think I can’t love you? Just because you’re made with metal, and detailed programming?

Software Malfunction by Tiger_in_the_Flightdeck

Assigned as the head of Medical Research on the Baker, John Watson meets- and quickly falls in love with- Sherlock, a specially commissioned Companion android with a malfunction.

This fic has a special place in my heart because it was one of the very first fics that I read when I came on the scene. It made me laugh, made me cry, and started a lifelong consuming love of fanfiction.

How many bones in the human foot, doctor?

26 Pieces by Lanning

Mycroft gives Sherlock the apparently simple task of solving a puzzle box containing a stolen microchip. It isn't simple.

Can’t ride the train at this hour and expect not to be in close contact with your fellow man, after all.

Evening Ride by LapisLazuli

John has a series of unexpected meetings with a stranger on the Tube.

This fic is hot af despite the fact that this would actually be really problematic in real life. I loved the sense of mounting danger as the tension climbs through the story. The ending was unexpectedly cute as well, so that’s a bonus.

I’m the unluckiest girl in the world. You won’t buy me a pony and my parents aren’t even together.

Ten Years by lurikko

A friend tells Rosie Watson that her parents aren't together for real, because they don't kiss. But we do, John says.

This is the only type of post-season four headcanon I will accept. Sherlock and John living happily together raising Rosie. This fic is awesome because it combines all my favorite tropes that force two reluctant men (who are secretly in love with each other) together, including: “We have to get married because reasons”, “Accidentally falling in love while we pretend to be in love”, and “We should’ve been doing this all along”.

Doctor Watson's Night of Fun

Small Screen Valentino by DancingGrimm

“Oh God,” John breathed, horrified.

It took a lot to horrify John H. Watson. Worried now, Sherlock got up and stepped around the table, only to be foiled when John quickly turned the laptop so he couldn't see the screen.

“John, what is it? What did she do?”

“She put a video online...oh God...”

“What? What sort of video?”

“Our video, Sherlock! One that she and I made!”

The angst and tension in this one is unbelievable. For being such a crack-y concept, it was so well grounded in perfect characterization and realistic storytelling. I can’t even count the number of times I’ve read this one. It’s angsty but funny, sexy but sweet. It’s great.

So that was that, Britain would have to look elsewhere for their Wimbledon hopeful.

A Study in Winning by JupiterAsh

John and Sherlock are professional tennis players and it’s Wimbledon. One is a broken almost was at the end of his career, the other an arrogant rising star tipped for greatness. It should have been a straightforward tournament. It really should have been. How were they to know that a chance encounter would change everything?

Wimbledon is one of my favorite romcoms, and this fic is even better. The final installment in the series recently started which reignited my interest in an old favorite. It’s such a full-bodied story, with its well rounded subplots, and intense climax. I was biting my nails through the last half of the story and nearly shouted when the tournament ended.
