Well! I was hoping to get to Reichenbach with this update, but John's adventures took a little longer than I had planned. Still, we've got lots of lovely John and Sherlock in this update. It's all about John and Sherlock, actually. And a rather delicious new character, who is played by the even more delicious James McAvoy, in Chase's personal theater. But you'll meet him soon enough.
Thanks to everyone who has left me kudos and feedback. Knowing that you guys are reading and enjoying makes all the time I spend wrestling with the boys worth it. John especially was rather stubborn this time around--I don't think he wanted to tell me some of these things. But tell he did, and I'm very pleased with the results. I suppose we'll have to see if you guys feel the same way.
Title: Miracle Year
Pairing: Sherlock/John (main) Sherlock/Other and John/Other (ancillary)
Rating: NC-17 for language, explicit sex, violence, and drug use
Disclaimer: I'm making no money. This is just for fun.
Dedication: This is for you, M'Sally. Because you couldn't find any more S/J you liked to read.
Summary:
This is the story of how Sherlock became Sherlock and John became John, long before either knew there would ever be a Sherlock and John. This is the story of how their relationship began, with all its silent negotiations and quiet denials. This is the story of how the silence came apart after the Reichenbach fall. This is the story of how Sherlock returned from the fall, and how he and John put things back together again, in quite a different way than before. This is also the story of Mycroft and Sherrinford--we all know that third Holmes brother is out there somewhere--and also other canon characters, though some have changed a bit since Sir Arthur's day.
This is a story about loneliness and fate. This is a story about parents and brothers. This is a story about cocaine and Shepherd's Pie. This is a story about London, and Los Angeles, and Afghanistan. This is a story about love. Also, sex. There's quite a lot of that. This is a story with a happy ending, though at times it will make you sad.
This is the Sherlock and John story I've been wanting to tell for a very long time. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it.
