    Summary

    This is a quasi-historical AU of the BBC Sherlock series set (more or less) in three fantasy kingdoms devised by the Bronte children.

    The time period is roughly the late seventeenth century and readers should bear in mind that this saga contains the doings of a set of supremely dysfunctional more-or-less European Royal families steeped in the "divine right of kings" ideology of monarchy, filtered through an early nineteenth century Romantic/Gothick sensibility and then depicted using the freedom of expression afforded by the early twenty-first century internet.

    Furthermore, if the Greek myths contemplated it, some member of the Royal houses of Gondal, Angria or Gaaldine has probably put it into practice somewhere.

    Gentle reader, consider yourself advised accordingly.

    Summary

    Sherlock never wanted a padawan, but he accepts John after the council practically forces him. Sherlock may have not wanted him in the beginning, but he'll be damned if anyone takes that little one away from him. Not the council, not the Dark Acolyte, not hell itself.

    Summary

    When a news story about a hostage situation in Afghanistan breaks, details about John Watson's military service come to light that the doctor had kept secret for a long time.
    Sherlock is intrigued and John manages to surprise the British government. What John needs in light of this story and the PTSD responses it flares up, is a friend. Can Sherlock Holmes step up to the job?

    Deals mainly with John's career and military background, plus epic friendship, BAMFness and a little bit of case fic.

    Trigger Warnings for: War, Violence and Torture in relation to War, flashbacks, PTSD
    I won't be posting warnings on every chapter. This story is about John's military service and the way he deals with it. I'm sure you can imagine what that could entail.
