oliversnape. Says everything. I quite liked the combination of asexuality, homosexuality, and family. It mixed well, and it was a calm conoction. No explosion. Just introspection.

In which Sherlock reluctantly agrees to be this year's Father Christmas, John accidentally agrees to help, and both of them discover that there's a lot more involved in this Christmas thing than they ever imagined.


AO3

Sherlock is Father Christmas. No. No, I haven't got this wrong. He's not dressing up as Father Christmas. He IS Father Christmas. This story is lovely. Truly.

Disposable and dispensable…one a villain, one a hero. Severus and Harry share more than they ever would've imagined.


At AO3



Well, the story is well-written but nothing special. I just felt like rec'ing because of the nicely interwoven literature. While it's not RaeWhit's magnum opus, it complements her other works nicely.

You Can Imagine the Christmas Dinners

Title: You Can Imagine the Christmas Dinners
Author: ardenteurophile
Fandom: Sherlock
Characters: John/Sherlock, Mycroft, Mommy Holmes
Warning: PG, mention of slash
Length: Medium
Status: Completed


Sherlock takes John along for Christmas dinner with Mycroft and Mummy (And "Anthea", too). Over the course of the evening, John realises that everyone in the room - apart from him - seems to think that he and Sherlock are a couple. 


At LJ


Story actually involves more than "just" John being mistaken for Sherlock's boyfriend. I quite liked the turns. They were not dramatic, nor in any way too surreal. Just a plain, weird Holmes Family. In mummy Holmes words: Mycroft's the manipulator of facts, Sherlock's the observer of facts, she's the manipulator of people.

Consolation

Title: Consolation
Author: MildredandBobbin
Fandom: Sherlock
Characters: Lestrade/Sherlock, John(/Mary)
Warnings: NC-17, slash, mention of het, UST (John/Sherlock)
Length: Short
Status: Completed



Faced with spending Christmas Day alone watching Christmas repeats on telly, Greg Lestrade decides to check on Sherlock, because he's alone too, isn't he? 


At FF


A brilliant piece of writing; Sherlock is carefree and pining after John. Using Lestrade and being used by Lestrade going all wrong, suddenly there are feelings... ick! Especially if Lestrade refuses to be a replacement for John.
