Summary
John and Sherlock are captured, tortured, and imprisoned - and eventually, they realize, there's only one way out.
John looks at him with a confident smirk. They’ll get away because they always do, and Sherlock’s not yet found a situation he couldn’t think or charm or lie his way out of.
And even an hour later when their captors come back and it starts all over again, when John looks at him with a sparkle of mirth from the eye not swollen and blackened and covered in blood, he assumes he’ll manage it this time too.

It's hard to get your next fix as an adrenaline junkie. Maybe that's why John and Sherlock started exploring at the edges.
BDSM and edge play. Lots of angst and some processing.

“I play the violin, sometimes I don’t for talk for days. Oh, and occasionally I spontaneously combust.”

Summary
"Ever since I returned to London, you have made it plain that my behaviour is intolerable. Clearly, you no longer find me praise-worthy in any capacity, so why are you still here?"
When a familiar argument threatens to destroy the last remnants of John and Sherlock's failing friendship, both men are left questioning their worth to one another. Before either of them has the chance to make amends, circumstance intervenes. John is left at the mercy of his abductors, and this time, he's not sure Sherlock will bother coming to his rescue.

"So you’re here, resting just under the surface, writhing in my veins and twisting between my organs. I’m still breathing so you’re still breathing, sitting there under my skin (and oh, how you itch)."

Summary
“This was like nothing John had ever thought to associate with Sherlock: stubble, skin-tight jeans and three small silver rings gleaming at the crest of one ear. It was unbelievable, like stepping into an alternative universe, and John couldn't stop staring.”
When Sherlock infiltrates a club in order to track down a serial killer, his altered appearance is enough to make John question his assumption that Sherlock is beyond his reach. However, is he the only one who appreciates his flatmate's charms, or is Sherlock at risk of becoming the next victim? (Warning: reviews may contain fic spoilers)

Summary
Perhaps Sherlock could’ve developed his own feelings for John, in time. If he were freer.
But such a natural thing couldn’t happen because Sherlock didn’t allow for things to simply happen.
