Summary
“What’s going on?”
“An apology. It’s all true.”
It isn’t; true that is. He’s lying, and somehow this little lie causes a chasm to rip open in his chest. It doesn’t make much sense; it being the pain this little lie is causing him. He’s about to die, but his mind has latched itself onto the small lies he keeps spewing to John. He thinks for a moment that he’s displacing his anxieties. Being worried about the small lies is much easier than thinking about the big one.

Summary
John Watson believes one day he'll just fade.
That he'll drown in the black spaces of his mind, and that one day he will no longer exist. It's always been like this, the dark spots marking out moments in his life he can't remember. Where for just a moment he's someone else. Having a Dissociative identity disorder, he can't even be entirely sure he's really who he says he is.
Then he meets Sherlock Holmes. A brilliant detective who when he looks at you can read your entire life story. John is immediately fascinated and afraid, half-wondering if maybe Sherlock can see the other personalities in him and half terrified of the thought of him finding out. Becoming his flatmate seems at once to be a wonderful and horrible idea. Yet as John's Blackouts become more and more severe and his other personalities begin to truly awaken and show themselves with Sherlock's help, the two soon discover that sometimes even the kindest person can harbour a demon best left untouched inside of them.
Because not all of John's other personalities play nicely. and some may be hiding secrets best left undisturbed.....- Language:

Summary
"Even though John finally (mostly) forgave Sherlock for the hell he put him, Mrs. Hudson, Lestrade and Molly for The Fall, things of course, could not stay the same. And they most certainly could not stay the same after the wretched Charles Augustus Magnussen case. He was trying to be a proper husband to Mary again after their estrangement last year. He was also a practicing physician again. He couldn't go dashing off on some adventure whenever Sherlock beckoned and called.
Or so he tried to explain to Sherlock over and over again with zero to little effect..."
John reluctantly joins Sherlock to solve a case about serial bombings. Of course, nothing is what it seems. Especially when they end up saving the life of a woman whose secrets may end up killing them all ... In other words, a typical day at 221B Baker Street.
This particular fic is loosely (LOOSELY) based off of "The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist".

Summary
They stood face to face in the middle of a clearing. The dim light of the moon barely allowed Sherlock to see the glassy terror in John’s eyes and the sweat that glistened off his forehead. His nose was bleeding again, blood dripping in a slow stream from his right nostril.
They were both gasping for air, John’s eyes locked on Sherlock’s. There was no recognition there, just wild animal fear.
Time stood still for an eternal few seconds, and Sherlock took a shaky breath. “John—”
Spell broken, John spun and bolted back into the woods.
Still heaving for air, Sherlock took off after him.

There’s an excellent reason he’s been gone, and several very good ones for taking him back, but the best one of all is Will, who falls in love with Sherlock as surely as John once did.

Pain is not the only burden John Watson carries. Sherlock isn't helpful in that respect. After all, the all-knowing detective doesn't believe in monsters.

Summary
From this prompt on the meme: In a world where such things are considered entirely mythical, Douglas and Martin have unknowingly developed a platonic soul-bond, and they only discover this after Martin takes the job in Zurich.
No romantic relationship at the start. One could develop into one, though remaining gen is perfectly fine.
