Summary
When Sherlock Holmes dies, Mycroft Holmes goes back to being a pillar of the British government. Anderson loses his mind. John Watson shuts down harder than a crashed computer.
But Sally Donovan?
The doorbell of her flat rings in the middle of the night.
Sally is about ready to ream out whatever fool showed up at her doorstep, ringing her doorbell, at fucking midnight, but then she stops when she sees who the lanky shadow lingering on her stoop is.
Sherlock Holmes, curls a sodden mess, the moonlight glimmering against his dark hair, against his eyelashes, against his moon-pale skin.
A ghost, she thinks at first, and yet—
She reaches out and pokes him, and he flinches, because he’s alive.
He’s alive.
“I have half a mind to fucking slap you,” Sally says, and she means it, the way that the words hiss from between her lips, and Sherlock doesn’t even have the decency to flinch.
(Sherlock calls Sally an old friend of his. Things go back far further than most people would expect, especially considering their reputation for hating each other—and when he has to fake his own death, there is one person not on Moriarty's list that he can turn to.)

Summary
He should have done better.
He should have paid for all the misery and pain and death he had caused.
He should have died when the East Wind came crashing down on them.Now it's too late.
Is there even anyone who cares anymore?
*
Just a heads up, this story is quite different from my previous one. It's much darker.
Also English is not my native language, so please excuse any mistakes.

Summary
His first fear was that he would be alone, perhaps having forgotten a comment about John going out with a friend that day, or visiting his mother for the weekend. But as he slowly pushed open the door of John’s bedroom, which appeared to be in the exact place he expected it would be, he heard a creak on the floorboards from the next door down, mirroring his own motions.
He locked eyes with a man who looked identical to him, with dark eyes, thick, messy hair, and deep shadows under the eyes, even more intense than they appeared in the mirror after days of little sleep. Even without the ear defenders, sunglasses, or his usual dark blue sweatshirt, it was clear he was looking into the eyes of Sherlock Holmes.
~~~
John and Sherlock accidentally body-swap and discover quite a bit about one another in the process.

Summary
Mycroft Holmes classified his wife as a structural adjustment, and the structure has been adjusting ever since.
When counterintelligence operative Belinda Cross becomes an operational irregularity in Mycroft's life, he does what he does best: he builds architecture around her. A spare room becomes a residence. A residence becomes a civil partnership. A civil partnership becomes a marriage. The marriage becomes the one room in his life he did not design and cannot control.
She makes the tea wrong. He places a glass of water beside her medication every morning. She fixes his collar. He leaves the study door open. Neither of them calls it love, because calling it love would require a vocabulary neither of them has built yet.
Then Sherlock comes back. Then Mary dies. Then Eurus starts testing whether the Iceman can break. -

Summary
“What if I was the consulting detective, and you were my assistant?” Sherlock asked.
John rolled his eyes. “Don’t be a wanker. It would never work.”
“Why? I’m smarter than you.”
“You may well be, but you lack common sense and have no finesse.”
“Says the man who just called his partner a wanker.”
What if their personalities were intact, but their roles were reversed? This is A Study in Pink flipped. In this au, John is the unstoppable consulting detective, and Sherlock is the broken doctor, newly invalided from Afghanistan. Both gifted geniuses, both equally flawed.

Aevum Technologies, the company responsible for the procedure, failed to produce an accurate copy. So it decided to send four imperfect versions of Sherlock to Baker Street instead.
The first is four foot three.
The second is socially unusable.
The third is a woman.
The fourth is a catastrophe.And John Watson, who now has five Sherlock Holmeses in his sitting room, realises he still prefers the original.

La première mesure un mètre trente.
La deuxième est socialement inutilisable.
La troisième est une femme.
La quatrième est une catastrophe.Et John Watson, qui a maintenant cinq Holmes dans son salon, réalise qu’il préfère quand même l’original.

Summary
John Watson has left Baker Street.
After everything that happened, he simply couldn’t stay.
Not in that flat. Not with Sherlock Holmes. Not with the weight of Mary’s death pressing against the walls.He thought distance might help him breathe. Help him start over.
But resentment doesn’t fade so easily, and reason, the part of him that whispers maybe it wasn’t all Sherlock’s fault, barely cuts through the grief.
Trying to protect what’s left of his family, John draws a line. He throws himself into fatherhood, clinging to Rosie like the last steady thing in a storm.
Until Lestrade calls.A body, a brutal assault, an unknown victim… and something that doesn’t add up.
When the man found lying in the rain turns out to still be alive, the case takes a strange and dangerous turn.
And Sherlock Holmes isn’t there to solve it.
Or maybe he is. Just not in the way John expects.
