John's Meta: Dressing Wounds by Saki101
Fandoms: Sherlock (TV), Sherlock Holmes & Related Fandoms
21 Feb 2014

Summary
In the months between the shooting and Christmas, John reflects.
Excerpt:
The light is fading. The bit of blue in the sky is gone, the wind picking up again. You should be back soon from Bart’s.
A taxi stops outside. I listen. I listened for months after you fell, hoping, hoping, strangled by hope. I hear the door shut, your foot on the stair. I glance at my laptop screen. I haven’t written much, deleted most of what I did write. It’s hard for me to tie this down in words. I was really just waiting for you to return.

Mary and Sherlock and the undoing (or not) of TSoT by tiltedsyllogism
Fandoms: Sherlock (TV)
26 Jan 2014
Tags
Summary
some speculation on the perspective Mary is bringing into her (almost-)deadly confrontation with Sherlock in His Last Vow... and the reasons why I don't think her decision to shoot Sherlock has to mean that the apparent affection between them in The Sign of Three wasn't real.

Summary
Violins are stupidly complicated to play well. That’s probably why Sherlock likes them--well, that and because he can annoy the heck out of Mycroft by playing deliberately badly. Luckily, Sherlock fandom, you do not actually have to learn to play the violin! This guide will help you convince your readers that Sherlock knows how to play the violin without requiring you to endure years of violin teachers shouting at you for tiny details of your technique. ("Stop avoiding the frog! Bow parallel to the bridge!")
