    Summary

    “Oh,” he whispers, sounding almost awed, “you were happy! You were happy she slapped me, you enjoyed seeing me so humiliated.”

    “No, no, I didn’t,” John murmurs, affection throbbing in his chest at the wounded amazement in Sherlock’s voice when he whispers, “Filthy liar.”

    Summary

    So, for whatever reason Sherlock steals John's clothes.

    John, BAMF that he is, decides he's not going to take this lying down and wanders around the flat completely naked because he doesn't want to play Sherlock's game.

    I want John making tea, cooking, reading a book (legs uncrossed, of course), watching telly, randomly bending over to pick things up, etcetera. JUST GOING ABOUT HIS DAY, BUT IN THE NUDE.

    Sherlock now has a major problem: John's nudity is DISTRACTING.

    He expected John would be all modest, or at least wear a towel or something, but things aren't going as planned.

    Bonus points if there's a drug bust.

    Summary

    They'd never talked about sex in the year they'd known each other. Well, that wasn't quite correct: Sherlock had never said a word about sex; John had bemoaned his personal dearth of it on many occasions.
