This stuff is INTENSE. Damn! I’m lovin’ it. :D I proudly present my fanfic recs of the day! (Brought to you by fairyd123_recs, a freaking AWESOME source of Sherlock recs.)
NOTE: I should have said this before, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go watch Sherlock before you try reading any of the fanfic I post up here!! Especially the following recs. I’m warning you, do NOT try to read before you watch Season 1. It will mess with your head and you will not understand ANYTHING and you won’t enjoy it at all. Please. I beg you. GO WATCH SHERLOCK!
NOTE #2: Just for reference, the three episodes of Season 1 in order are A Study in Pink, The Blind Banker, and The Great Game. (That ending was a killer. GAH. Such a cliffie!! And the reason why I like the second rec on the following list is because I know how it really ends, and it’s not anything like any of those, but they are all still SO utterly BELIEVABLE!!!)
These first few are intense, suspenseful and utterly delightful. The type of fanfiction that really makes me feel like I’m literally watching the show, because it’s the same kind of experience.

In the wake of the events of The Great Game Sherlock turns criminal. Or does he? A gripping, superbly plotted story which keeps you guessing throughout as to Sherlock's true motivations.

John/Sherlock character death
Five different ways The Great Game could have ended. Lyrical and really strongly written.
Those were two spectacularly written stories. Hot damn! I just wanna cuss, that’s how good they were! :P
Plus, this last rec. I read it last night, and at first, I thought it would be really weird, but I read it anyway. And GOSH, I was NOT disappointed!! Jeez, I do love the characterization of John in it, and the Johnlock bromance/fluff was so beautifully written and the whole idea fits in perfectly with the sequence of events in the episodes of Season 1… Okay, I’m going to shut up now, because I could go on and on. >:D Just go read it.
It Feels Like Home When I'm With You by etothepii
Summary:
John still gets nightmares about Afghanistan. That's the worst part of it all, he thinks -- he still has dreams about sand and drowning to death in his own blood. But they're more memory than nightmare.
Notes:
Spoilers for Study in Pink. Written for the Sherlock BBC Kink Meme for this prompt. Ghost!John.
