Something New

Title: Something New
Author: Aithilin, Wind_Ryder
Fandom: Sherlock
Characters: Sherlock/Lestrade/Victor
Warning: PG-13, threesome, pregnancy, omegaverse
Length: Short
Status: Ongoing


Sherlock and Lestrade spend Sherlock's heat together while their partner, Victor, is out of the country. Sherlock becomes pregnant, and they decide not to tell Victor until he comes home. They don't realize that the shock might be a bit too much for him.



AO3

Very sweet compilation of short stories from a specific universe. I quite like the characterizations. They just... fit.

Curved Space

Title: Curved Space
Author: taylorpotato
Fandom: Sherlock
Characters: Lestrade/Sherlock
Warning: NC-17, genderbender, slash/het
Length: Short
Status: Completed


Things can be difficult when you don't fit into a neat little box of gender or sexuality. Some days, everything is fine. Other days, it feels like Sherlock has woken up in the wrong body. They cope with it as best they can, perhaps by drowning in an opiate high more often than they should. But there's always the work. Puzzles to solve. Ways to keep busy. There's also Greg Lestrade. Who Sherlock is definitely not dating. At least, not on purpose.



AO3


The gender issue is well-described, and I consider this important and educational enough to rec it. No, you are not bombarded with facts. It's more like an impression, a "human story."

Sherlock starts sleeping in Greg's bed, but he just likes to sleep. A love story told through fragile late-night snapshots and half-murmured conversations.

Lestrade, Sherlock and John investigate dodgy goings on at a country house cricket match.

A case that involves cricket. Sherlock playing cricket... okay? Sounds fun? It is.
There's also a very cheesy come on line.
It's not necessary to know the other fandoms. I don't. And I still enjoyed this.

Things You Don't Tell Me

Title: Things You Don't Tell Me

Characters: John/Sherlock, Lestrade/Sherlock
Warning: NC-17, slash, bdsm
Length: Medium

The first time he sees Sherlock's driving license, Lestrade is sure it's a skilled forgery, though why Sherlock would want the little black S as his role instead of a D, he has no idea.


AO3

No, I am not adding it for the smut's sake. Sherlock's insistence on not being property is a beautiful entry to Sherlock!whump. It hints at bdsm gone bad, and that's something I like in these stories. Some depth to it.

Norbury

Warning: NC-17, bdsm
Length: Short

A BDSM situation in which the dom ends up using the safeword.



AO3

I love sub!Sherlock, and I love Sherstrade. There's a nice chemistry between them, and I can totally see Lestrade as Sherlock's guardian, or at least, guidance. In a relationship, Lestrade would be aware of the power he wields - and this short fic shows just that.

Le Scandale Bohème

Title: Le Scandale Bohème
Author: mycake
Fandom: Sherlock
Characters: Sherlock/Lestrade (switch once), Mycroft, Mrs Hudson, Jim
Warning: NC-17, slash, chan, drug abuse, non-con (Sherlock/other), child abuse (Lestrade)
Length: Novella
Status: Ongoing


A desperate police officer puts all of his faith into an eighteen year old junkie who is only interested in getting his hands on the only thing that can ease his unstable mind. Both men become far more involved with one another than either had intended and must keep their home life a secret or risk losing everything.


AO3

Yes, I read that monster, and I read it twice.
In here, we got a lot of the typical "Lestrade picks up Sherlock when he's at his worst and makes him better" elements but it also is about Lestrade himself, for once. He has problems; financial, social, family. In a way, that makes him less jaded than the Lestrade we see in other fiction, strangely enough. Lestrade is young, his age nonwithstanding. He's actively dealing with his life and influencing it. I think this is as much about Lestrade as it is about Sherlock. I like that.

A Case of Identity

Title: A Case of Identity

Fandom: Sherlock
Characters: Lestrade/Sherlock
Warning: NC-17, slash
Length: Medium
Status: Completed


Sherlock's exhausted after a case; Lestrade looks after him.


At LJ


Well, there's a lot of sleeping in there. Um, peaceful sleeping. And lying around on the sofa.
It's very fluffy, in a way. Lestrade slowly falls for Sherlock, and then there's Sherlock's asexuality.
Basically, this is a story about asexuality and how a relationship is possible but which obstacles are lined up on the way to happiness.

Warning: R, slash, character death (Sherlock)
Length: Medium

There's a simple reason why Lestrade puts up with Sherlock...


At AO3

Lestrade's POV, and a kind of character study. It's more or less about how the events throughout the series influenced and hurt him.

The Adventure of the Resurrected Lover

Warning: PG, mention of threesome, mention of slash
Length: Medium

It was supposed to be a relaxing, romantic holiday by the sea. And then Sherlock discovered a murder. So much for relaxing…



At AO3


Yeah, nice story. Actually, I read it because of the murder. Threesome's not quite what floats my boat, so to speak. There's nothing unduly in there, so don't let yourself be frightened off by the shipping. With squinting, it's even more of platonic than romantic love. Especially since it focuses on the problems of making their relationship "work", what with Greg and Sherlock being unsure of how to proceed.

Lestrade and Sherlock on their own, all alone.

The problem with this series is... I like it. Even though I don't like Sherlock's attitude in it.
So... still deserves a rec.

Twenty-something Sherlock Holmes gets off on sucking cock anonymously in public toilets. Recently divorced, forty-something Greg Lestrade gets off on… well, he gets off.



At AO3

Another Sherstrade story. I seriously hope the author will continue it someday. It is written in a nice, not too sophisticated, not too amateurish style. The main idea isn't bad either.

Short and cute oneshot about Sally, John and Anderson being determined to play matchmaker for Lestrade and Sherlock. Because... really, those innuendos are too much for them XD

Sherlock's Curious Fascination

Warning: NC-17, slash
Length: Short

Sherlock Holmes is working on a case based on a young girl who seduced her much older lover. This intrigues him and re-sparks his interest he has in the older man named Gregory Lestrade. While it is research for the case he also sees it as a perfect opportunity (and possibly uses it as an excuse).

Well-written PWP featuring Sherstrade.

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?

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.

Lestrade's acquaintance with more or less high!Sherlock.

Do you know the feeling when you read something amazing but don't feel well afterwards? When there's some sort of churning in your stomach because it doesn't seem to be a good end? Too open, for once?
Well, this story made me feel like that. I loved the writing, the idea, the characterization. Sherlock's inner despair was depicted quite beautifully.

The Art of Seduction

Warning: NC-17, slash, violence, drug abuse, mention of several kinks, injury
Length: Novella
Status: Completed


Sherlock ran a website called The Science Of Seduction, on which he gave advice on the best ways to get laid, wrote blog entries detailing the results of his various sexual 'experiments' and generally contributed to the stereotype of 'every gay man is a sex-mad playboy'. John avoided the thing like the plague.

Is there anything more beautiful than a screwed-up Sherlock which is fixated on sex instead of murder?
This is completely canon but for that fact :) So enjoy.
