Summary
"Every fourth week Sherlock would answer the call in his blood and John would pretend to sleep until Sherlock returned, sliding into the bed at the break of dawn like an apology. On those mornings they would make love, Sherlock lying sweet and pliant beneath him. And yet… somehow in the tumult of hot breath and burning kisses, John could not shake the conviction that an emotional subterfuge was taking place, a legerdemain of the heart that he could only glimpse from the corner his eye."
John comes back from Afghanistan a broken man and meets Sherlock Holmes, a brilliant Alpha Wolf, who might be even more broken than him.

Summary
John shifted into a stronger stance just as the hair on the back of his neck prickled up. Even if Sherlock looked human, John’s body could sense there was a predator nearby. Porn with some Plot.

Summary
Aziraphale felt his cheeks flush pink. “Yes. Well. It appears to be a curse for a cheating lover. The design is to create an ever-increasing obsessive need for the person who—”
“I’m well aware of what it does,” Crowley interrupted. Aziraphale glanced up from the book and took in Crowley’s stance, the apparent lax posture belied by the way he was clutching the edge of the countertop with white knuckles. Aziraphale swallowed.
“Is it…” Aziraphale faltered, then tried again. “Is it…” painful is how he told himself he wanted to finish the question. There was no other possible word to end that question that Aziraphale wanted to know.
“Don’t play dumb, angel. It doesn’t suit you.” Crowley’s voice was low, an edge of something to it that Aziraphale hadn’t heard since the Tadfield airbase, the moment Crowley was ready to give up and accept the apocalypse. He met Aziraphale’s eyes. “You know who I want.”

Summary
"Captain," Spock acknowledged with a slight nod. "I..." He hesitated, uncharacteristically uncertain. "I have been contemplating whether chess is the most efficient use of our time this evening."
Kirk raised an eyebrow, unconsciously mimicking his first officer's signature expression. "Oh? Do you have something else in mind?"
Spock moved further into the room, stopping a precise distance from where Kirk sat. "Today marks one year since the incident with the warp core."

Summary
Sherlock risks his life again and John has had quite enough. After the fight, John reluctantly seeks advice from Mycroft. What he finally deduces will change everything.
Or: The one in which Sherlock doesn’t know how to people and John doesn’t know how to Sherlock, but for some reason Mycroft, who doesn’t fully understand either one, makes all the connections.
Also there is sex.
*The whole thing is already finished. I'm thinking I might just put the first few chapters up and post the others in a day or two once I'm 100% sure they're proofread. Idk. Maybe I'll post them all today. "I'm sooooo changeable..."

Never Once Failed (Full Series in Chronological Order) by orphan_account

Summary
This is how I wanted things to go. This is pretty much a Reichenbach Fall AU - what would have happened if Sherlock and John had realised what their relationship really is *before* they decided to take down Moriarty.
This story takes place over about a year, and we basically drop in on what the boys are doing at various points during that year. Plenty of feels, plenty of smut, a little angst, a bit of drama, and a happy ending (if you're not Sebastian Moran or Moriarty). I won't break your heart, and hopefully I don't butcher the characters - but that's for you to judge. The tags give you a better idea of the general shenanigans they get up to during the story.
This is a compilation of my "Never Once Failed" Series - all of these chapters already exist in those stories, but this puts them all in a chronological order that is hopefully easier to read.
Series
- Part 1 of Never Once Failed

Summary
“I’m just thinking what to call this one,” John said, with that self-satisfied expression that meant he was trying to be clever. “The Phallic Fallacy?”
Or: Sherlock becomes obsessed with the idea of measuring John’s package. His interest is purely academic… until it isn’t.

Summary
“Boya-Daren, had I known it was you in dire need of assistance, I would have come sooner.”
Qingming's expression is a decidedly smug curl of his lips that softens as their eyes meet. Unfortunately for him, though, the fondness Boya finds in the others gaze only serves to annoy him further, despite his own admissions – to himself at least – in having missed the man’s shameless face in the time they’d been apart.
“Seven months and not a word. Who needs you, huh?”
