Sherlock is bored. Bored with no cases, bored with life, bored with
everything. But he promised John, promised, that drugs were off the
table. And just because he is asking John for too much in return,
doesn't mean that Sherlock isn't willing to give it. This is how broken
people fall in love.

Realistic BDSM with Johnlock? Sounds impossible? I was sceptical at first, too. That's just something I wouldn't consider canon-compliant. Yet here it is, a story featuring Sherlock realistically seeking out pain to keep his mind clear - and John helping him to keep him off drugs. It's a well-written story, not about leather and what else one might associate with BDSM. Rather it's about finding trust, about finding relief in sceneing. And the case depicted is actually interesting, as well as Sherlock's background story.
