A week after Sherlock left 221B Bakers Street on a plane then came back, John moved out to live with his new wife, Mary, leaving the hyper detective on his own. But obviously worried for his friend, John gets Miss. Hudson graciously put out an ad for a new renter. A young woman by the name of Gracie Harborston accepts the offer and moves in to Sherlock Holmes flat unknowingly. Now Gracie has a past. As a detective and a few other things. She holds a lot of secrets and was teased her outward physical appearance is like Holmes but is soon told she is so much like Sherlock Holmes it's "terrifying". Gracie has no care for Holmes at first unlike most woman and sits at the window and plays her violin ignoring his presence which the tall detective appreciates at first but begins to strangely feel a need to make her feel welcome. With Moriarty looming over their heads even while dead, it makes things complicated. Very complicated....

Lost Girl 🔍 (Sherlock x Reader) [EDITING]
You and John Watson were old flames back in your high school year. Thankfully, when you broke up, you still remained friends. That was, until the year of the war came around. While John went to war, you began to tend to your dying sister, who you knew only had a few more years. John and you kept in touch, but the letters started to get more and more infrequent as the war began to get more and more brutal. After your sister died, you moved to London, hoping for a fresh start and to eliminate any memories of your her. The next thing you know, three people get murdered right before your eyes, and guess who shows up to inspect? John Watson. And his friend, Sherlock Holmes. You took a liking to Sherlock, despite his arrogance and sociopathic tendencies, and you slowly begin to see his feelings that he hides underneath his shell. When he sees how clever you are, Sherlock also takes a liking to you, but tries his hardest to hide it. He knows that sentiment is a chemical defect found on the losing side. Now you, Sherlock and John Watson are solving cases together, but what happens when the person you fear most shows up and starts to torment John and Sherlock.Complete
30 Days. (Part 1 of the 30 Days fanfic series)
Empty. Baker Street, and the entirety of the City of London, is empty. The streets are no longer busy with cars or pedestrians; it's deserted. Sherlock Holmes and John Watson are the only people around. But they're not alone. The Diseased---people who have caught a strange, rabid-like disease go into a state of madness in which they have the lust to kill anyone they come across---litter the streets. And John is one of them. When Sherlock comes from being in his Mind Palace for longer than he thought for a case he was solving, he finds out that a sudden apocalypse has taken over London, and a mysterious disease has plagued half the population, and they litter the streets. To his horror, John is somehow caught with the disease. The consulting detective finds himself on the most dangerous, and overwhelming case he has ever been on, one that will test his love for John. And that case is to find a cure for his best friend before he loses him to the strange, apocalyptic disease forever. And Sherlock is prepared to walk right through hell, if it means finding a cure for the one man he loves most in the world. ⚠️ ***TRIGGER WARNING*** ⚠️ This fanfic is rated M for a reason!

I believe in you - Sherlock Fanfiction.
[Sherlock x Female OC] The thing is, there is an empty, gaping hole at the base of John's throat where his overwhelming guilt and periodic bouts of torturous grief used to be. It would be so easy to... to be angry and punch a hole through the wall, through the foam of his pillow -- drive his fist through Sherlock's heart. But he remembers; in the most tragic and inopportune of fashion, remembers how angry he had been when Sherlock had jumped, how furious he had been at his funeral, and how it hadn't stopped him from breaking down at his grave nonetheless. The thing about his anger is this: it does nothing but leave him behind in the end, a bundle of nerves and frailty in his bones and an unsteady sway to his gait. It does nothing at all, but reduce marginally the constant, suffocating oppressiveness of his days bleeding into one another with a burst of adrenaline. The thing about his anger is this: it doesn't give him back Sherlock. So he gets a new flatmate- a woman named Holland. They were great friends at school and in fear he would be lonely again after Sherlock died he started to meet up with her, and soon, she moved in with him. They're just friends, though. No one could have a bond with John like Sherlock did. Sherlock was his best friend. But then Sherlock returns, and John is more furious than ever at him. Also, Sherlock and Holland seem to bond quite well, which is something Sherlock finds too complicated to explain itself.Complete
Do You Want To Know A Secret?
An interesting twist on the Sherlock universe-Sherlock is a girl. John, however, doesn't know this. Neither does Mrs. Hudson, or anyone else besides his direct family. This takes place sometime after series 2 or 3, with Mary only dating John. It will eventually contain a bit of Johnlock, with the usual tension and what-not throughout the whole story. But this isn't necessarily just a Johnlock story. There'll be other ships somewhat approached, but overall, it's more of a thriller (or at least, I'm trying to have it be).

Sherlock X Reader One Shots || 𝐹𝐿𝑈𝐹𝐹 + 𝑆𝑀𝑈𝑇
No AI! ✊ [[UPDATED: recently]] ✨ 30+ 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 ✨ Some fluff 💕, some smut 🔞, each 'one shot' is usually over 20,000 words, so they're more like short stories. Basically, I watched the BBC version of the show, saw the rare moments where Sherlock was funny, expressive, passionate, eccentric and thought, "That's adorable and sexy, what if we could have that for the WHOLE SHOW?" And here we are. ___ I do not write in first person because I find it cringy! There will be no 'I smile at him---' or 'He takes your hand---' here. Every story is third person omnipresent. ___ In this book: - Join Sherlock on cases - Visit his parents in the countryside - Go on dates - Cook together - Look after some animals - Comfort him - Have HIM comfort YOU - Enjoy some dominant Sherl - And some sub Sherl - A bit of both - 🎀 Don't be afraid to make a request! I'm an AO3 veteran, so I've seen it all 😉🤣 ___ - Female reader - Set around season one, in most of these Y/N is renting the spare room in 221B after John moved out with a random girlfriend that I made up and never mention - No death, drugs, smoking, gore, blood, mental illness etc. - I'll label chapters that are properly explicit 🤎 No trigger warnings apply; just feel good vibes 🤎 See table of contents (first chapter) for one-shot plot summaries. NO AI GUARANTEE! I promise that I will never and have never used artificial intelligence (apart from the spelling checker that comes with Word) to write my stories. This entire book came from my human brain, and the source material (the BBC) of which it's based (also thought up by humans). Thank you for supporting human art 🩷
