i live for the day rosie learns what the word gay means and she proceeds to aks john “dad is sherlock gay?” and john goes into this fucking endless spluttering explanation about how sherlock is a very complicated person and we just. we just don’t know. we can’t be sure. one time a woman sent him 57 text messages so probably not. and the next time they’re over at 221B rosie looks up from sherlock’s picture book about poisonous plant she’s studying with her plush bumblebee, gives sherlock a look and asks “are you gay, sherlock?” and sherlock, without missing a beat, just says “yes” and continues drinking his tea and rosie says “ah” and goes back to her plant book and john nearly doubles over in the corner like SAkfjalsöölsakdjflsdjEFpsflksdjfslfjsfk
if johnlock is not canon the only thing I can ever accept is that martin and ben must be in love with each other because why else are their faces like that
Retirement!Holmes/Watson ahhh. Made these for Holmestice on LJ. My recipient was the brilliant @mistyzeo. They mentioned a couple of things they’d like to see in their gift, and I picked ‘snow’.
Special thanks to Holmestice Mods for running this event! xo
Ok but does it means that when Sherlock says John is family, could it mean he’s saying the same to the paramedics trying to get john to the hospital, refusing to let go of him??
john hated being a dad until he did it with sherlock wholly fuck
“we would’ve noticed the 666 on her forehead” vs that massive shit eating smile when sherlock says “oh look daddy!” and hands off the baby to him. what the fückíñg héll
Where better to begin than the most famous parentlock fic of all time? If for some reason you have not read this fic, don’t be put off by the description. Basically, during experiments in cloning, the British government accidentally clones Sherlock. Sherlock insists on raising the baby which means that John becomes a parent as well.
This fic is easily in my top 20. Fake Relationship, Parentlock, Pining, what more could you want??? Sherlock and John go undercover on vacation with a baby as the case involves gay couples and their kids. Takes place post season 3/TAB.
John moves back in with his new baby, Iris. Sherlock can’t help but love both of them. If you haven’t read this parentlock classic yet please go do so immediately.
American AU: John is a kindergarten teacher and one of his students is a Henry Holmes. Henry does not speak in school which leads to several meetings with Henry’s father, Sherlock. Gradually, both Henry and Sherlock start to open up to John.
When Mary’s past catches up with her and she is killed, Sherlock takes care of John and his daughter Violet. They slowly fall into a relationship together and Sherlock experiences a revelation. One of my favorite authors.
Written in first person by John’s teenage daughter Eugenia, this fic is a look into the lives of Eugenia’s unconventional family. My absolute favorite scene is when she goes to the LGBT pride parade with John.
Sherlock and John were married before Sherlock decided to jump off a tall building. John is not doing well and Mycroft offers (manipulates) John something he never thought he wanted: children.
While on his mission to destroy Moriarty’s network, Sherlock meets Moriarty’s son, James, after killing Moran. Sherlock decides to take him in and raise him. John is with Mary and both Sherlock and James have many scars from their pasts. It’s all a bit complicated. (warnings: child abuse, torture, extreme angst)
This fic is the kind of angst that hurts so good and has a beautiful ending to make up for it. Post S3, Sherlock will do anything to make John happy, even if it destroys him. (warnings: infidelity, unhealthy relationships)
Post-Mary: Sherlock devises a plan to get John and his daughter Emily back living at Baker St. John has resisted moving back because Emily needs her own room. Sherlock tries to show John that he can be a good partner and a good influence for Emily. So sweet and heart-warming.
I absolutely love the lyrical writing style of this fic. John and his daughter come to live at 221B and Sherlock does everything he can to make them feel at home.
Sherlock meets John and his son Hamish at a crime scene and comes to stay with them while he recovers from an injury. Hamish and Sherlock have the same intuitive genius minds which leads John to become closer to Sherlock. (warnings: past child abuse, past implied rape, John/Lestrade mentions)
This fic is a series of fluffy oneshots in the lives of Sherlock, John, and their son Hamish. If you need something to make you smile after reading an angsty fic this is definitely for you.
