Darcy is a mystery to Moriarty. She knows Sherlock. She's smart. Probably smarter than him. But she hides.
When Darcy is called back into action by Sherlock after fifteen years in another country, she is ready to face any challenge that comes her way. But the challenge that she finds, by the name of Moriarty, is a riddle that she just can't work out. It's a game, but the rules keep changing. What she thinks is going to be one small case turns into something bigger, as her world gets turned upside down by a psychopath wearing the Crown Jewels.

(Jim Moriarty x reader) [COMPLETED] - "...Jim," she gasped. He stared at her intensely, hands in his pockets. His hair was messy, and dark circles hung from his eyes.

I missed you." She looked at him, confused, and shook her head. She shrugged her shoulders. "That doesn't explain to me what you're doing here. If fact, you can't be here. You-you need to leave-" Jim walked forward again. "Didn't you miss me?" ... Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Sherlock Holmes universe characters, only the original ones.Complete

Sherlock's Interpreter {🔆 Actively Writing 🔆}
Charlie Magnussen wasn't your ordinary, run-of-the-mill daughter of a notorious billionaire. She was special. Like her father, her memory was as acute and unfailing as the many languages she spoke. Unlike her father, however, Charlie was on the run. She was being hunted by one of the most dangerous men in the world, and only one Consulting Detective knew how to find her before her stalker did. When Sherlock accepted Mycroft's mission to retrieve the child of his arch-nemesis, he was less than enthusiastic. Anyone with the name Magnussen surely was more trouble than they were worth. But then again, he was bored, and MI6 was so interested in this Charlie person, of course, he needed to know why. But little did even the great Sherlock Holmes know his unrivaled curiosity was about to turn his world upside down. And it was all thanks to a green-eyed, sarcastic little nobody his good sense just couldn't ignore. His good sense and maybe even... his heart? ❤️ ~Sequel to Moriarty's Musician!~

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

The Sociopath: A BBC Sherlock Fanfic
{SUMMARY: EDITED} Follow the exciting life of the consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes as him and his flatmate, John Watson, try to catch James Moriarty, a consulting criminal who is only known to them as the "Invisible Man". However, it isn't long until both find out his true name, and the detective himself finds out his true identity. Things get turned for the worse when Sherlock comes up with what he believes a clever plan, a plan that he keeps secret, in order to beat the consulting criminal at his own game. But it could be that Moriarty has messed with the sociopath's mind. . . Which means he may be going mad. But despite all of this, and keeping this secret away from John, Mr Holmes is a restless man, and he will not stop at nothing until he has caught---and stopped--- the enemy(Dr.Watson, however, is less determined). With an IQ above average and being a highly-functioning sociopath at best, and a detective partner who happens to be a doctor at his side, Sherlock is on a wild hunt in which the scent gets nearer. . . . But the trail is getting fainter every time he is one step closer. The game is on. . . {FANFIC WRITER'S NOTE: The reason why I edited the summary was because I realized I turned it into something totally different than how I planned it. Fortunately, it has turned out better, haha. And so, in this Sherlock fanfic, rather than focusing on the detective solving cases, it's focused on his confrontation with James Moriarty and how he tries to defeat him. Some things are like in the TV Show, but I'm going to make things different or add stuff. I hope you've enjoyed it so far!}Complete
