Prompting Part XXXIV

[sherlockbbc_fic]

S3 SPOILER POLICY
THE MEME NEEDS ARCHIVISTS!

GUIDELINES

• Anon posting is not required, but most definitely allowed. If you think you recognise an anon, keep it to yourself and don’t out them. IP tracking is off, and will remain that way.


• Multiple fills are encouraged, and all kinds of fills are accepted! Fic, art, vids, cosplay, interpretive dance — whatever. Go wild! :D


• Don’t reprompt until TWO parts after the last posting of the prompt.


• RPF (real person fic, i.e. fic involving the actors themselves) is not supported at this meme.


• Concrit is welcome, but kinkshaming, hijacking, and flaming are not tolerated.

THE FILLED PROMPTS POST
When you fill a prompt, please use the appropriate Filled Prompts Post to archive your fill (there are instructions on the actual post).

If the part you wanted isn't up yet, just wait and one of the archivists will get to it, but please, once it is up, make sure you post your fills there according to the guidelines. DO NOT skip out on doing this because it seems like too much effort. If you want your fill to make it to the Delicious archive, that’s the way to do it.

Do not be afraid to ask questions about how it works if you are confused! The mods will be happy to explain.

WARNINGS/OFFENSIVE WORDING IN PROMPTS
Please consider warning for prompts that may trigger people (and also for fills, because some people read in flat view) and phrasing prompts in a manner that strives to be respectful.

Things which you might want to consider warning for include: Rape/Non-Con, Death, Suicidal Thoughts, Self-Harm, Underage Relationships, among others.

That being said, this is a kink meme. As such, there will be prompts that could offend you in a number of different ways. Not every prompt will have a trigger warning, and not every prompt will rub you the right way. If you have an issue with a specific prompt, feel free to bring it up in a discussion that takes place off the meme. However, flaming will not be tolerated regardless of origin.

You are highly encouraged to scroll past any prompt that you dislike.

Remember: be civil, be friendly, but don’t be shy!

THINGS THAT MAKE BROWSING THE MEME EASIER FOR EVERYONE
Please nest your fills. Doing so will make it easier for archivists to save your fills to the Delicious archive. Using subject lines will also help people reading the meme in flatview keep track of what’s happening. Finally, titling your fills (even if it’s something silly) will be helpful to those tracking a lot of prompts or scrolling through the meme.

PROMPT FREEZES
Depending on the rate of activity, there may or may not be a prompt freeze when a part reaches 2000 and 4500 comments. However, there will be one when it reaches 7000. After the 7000 comments freeze, a new part will be posted, and all prompting should happen on the new part.

CONTACTING MODS
Your mods for this meme are ellie_hell, charname, anonspock and anonbach. If you have any questions, concerns, comments about anything at all on the meme feel free to send a PM or contact us via the Page-A-Mod post.

Reprompt: Fallout Universe

[(Anonymous)]

http://sherlockbbc-fic.livejournal.com/20063.html?thread=122267487#t122267487

Sherlock is the Chosen One sent out on a mission to find a G.E.C.K for his vault, John's job is to act as his protector, Mycroft is the secret vault overseer and Lestrade is head of security.

Sherlock/Victor Secret Relationship (kind of?)

[(Anonymous)]

I am all about this ship, but sadly there is not much fanfiction for it.
I'm especially fond of Sherlock having been in a relationship with Victor for a long while, but it's long distance so he doesn't tell many people about it. But then Victor comes to visit and they are super cute !
Bonus points if trans lady Victoria !

Re: Sherlock/Victor Secret Relationship (kind of?)

Really heartbreaking RTYI is Gravity by ImpishTubist... Warning for character death though. Utterly gut wrenching, but so, so gorgeous.

At gun-point

[(Anonymous)]

Just something based on this idea I saw on Tumblr.

"I predict a Series 4 predicament where Mary will be pointing a gun at Sherlock, on his knees, while John points his gun at her."

Selfharm

[(Anonymous)]

Sherlock selfharms. It´s something he hasn´t done since he was a teenager but damn it, this case is hard and since he hasn´t slept for 4 nights and hasn´t eaten anything for as many days his body starts to fail him and he hates that. The pain makes him focus.

John finds out. They fight. On a crime scene of all places. Sherlock runs off.

To his surprise it isn´t John who finds him but Donovan. She takes off her shirt and shows him scars of her own to his shock. They talk and strangely bond over this and Sally makes him eat and gets a promise from him that he will call if something like that happens again.

To the outside nothing changes but Sally has her watchful eyes on him and she knows him better than Sherlock thought.

- Sally comes in a situation where she selfharms as well again and this Sherlock notices and return the caring much to Sally´s surprise

Sherlock misses human touch

[(Anonymous)]

After Sherlock ends it with Jeanine, he finds he misses the cuddles, casual touching, etc. that he got when in the fraudulent relationship. It confuses him at first, because he thought he was faking the whole thing, but finally he gives in and tries to get them where he can. I don't care if it's from Jeanine, John, Mary, Mycroft, or someone else. Just Sherlock wanting the touch but not necessarily a sexual aspect.

Sherlock is difficult in the mornings (S/J)

[(Anonymous)]

It doesn't matter how wonderful a night they've had: Sherlock is almost always touchy, irritable, and claustrophobic when he's waking up. John is at first hurt and confused by what seems like rejection, but eventually, he realizes that it's not personal.

Bonus points if Sherlock feels awkward about his behavior once he's fully awake, but has a hard time apologizing for it.

Re: Sherlock is difficult in the mornings (S/J)

Seconded

John/Mary, Mycroft, Sherlock- Final Straw, h/c, angst, possible character death

[(Anonymous)]

It was one thing for Mary to shoot Sherlock. But when circumstances find her shooting Mycroft..well, that's just going too far. Sherlock (and John, preferably) decides that she needs to be taken out of the equation.

Please no Mycroft, John, or Sherlock dying. Mary...it's up to filler.

Too Late: John whump, torture, euthanasia

[(Anonymous)]

After nearly two years of searching, Sherlock finds John--barely alive, mangled, out of his head with pain. Not aware enough to recognize Sherlock anymore, but just enough to see the gun in Sherlock's hand and look at it pleadingly, begging to die.

Basically, punch me in the feels hard.

Johnlock or gen are both okay!

Re: Too Late: John whump, torture, euthanasia

[(Anonymous)]

Also, all my internets for a fill that involves the aftermath--how Sherlock copes, etc.

Johnlock, sensory processing issues, fluff

[(Anonymous)]

Inspried by: http://nurturestore.co.uk/valentine-sensory-tub

So i just really want Sherlock with sensory processing issues, on any level, and being obsessed/fascinated by certain materials, which John finds adorable. Come Valentines Day, John surprises Sherlock with a sensory tub (like the one shown above, but for an adult obviously) which Sherlock goes crazy for. Fluff and cuddles abound please.

Re: Johnlock, sensory processing issues, fluff

[(Anonymous)]

Omg, yes please :)

Mycroft goes screw the diet

[(Anonymous)]

We all know that Sherlock likes to make cracks about Mycroft's diet. Well...we all know what happens to diets in the end. I want unashamed food porn and Mycroft succumbing (or at least trying to resist) to the temptations of glorious food if only for a day.

Re: Mycroft goes screw the diet

[(Anonymous)]

Sort-of filled on next page or so.

Sherlock/Magnussen, non-con watersports

[(Anonymous)]

When Magnussen pissed in the fireplace, John was outraged; Sherlock, on the other hand, was just a little aroused. Magnussen noticed.

A few weeks later, after Sherlock comes out of hospital, Magnussen summons him to his office penthouse. Using the Watsons, and particularly John, as leverage, he forces Sherlock to kneel down in front of him, makes him take off his scarf and open up his coat, and then proceeds to urinate down his front, soaking his expensive white shirt and tailored suit.

Sherlock feels utterly humiliated, but Magnussen isn't done with him yet. When he has relieved himself entirely, Magnussen shakes himself dry in the direction of Sherlock's face, then orders Sherlock to undo his flies and take himself out to masturbate. This reveals that the ordeal has actually given Sherlock an erection, much to Magnussen's very vocal amusement.

Magnussen dismisses him at that point and a frustrated and humiliated Sherlock tucks himself in and runs from the building. Unable to take the Tube or a cab even with his coat closed due to the smell, Sherlock walks home, but the memory of what was done to him, and the state he is in now, make his arousal return and he finishes himself off, rubbing his soiled crotch, before he even makes it home.

Up to author if Magnussen summons him again for more messy domination games, or if Sherlock is simply haunted by the experience and ashamed that he found it so arousing, and has fantasies about it happening again.

+1000

Sebastian/John, Sebastian/Jim

[(Anonymous)]

John and Sherlock are on a case trailing Moriarty or something when they get their first proper glimpse of his right hand man, the sniper who threatened them at the pool. John never expected to see his old sort-of-boyfriend Sebastian Moran again after the war, and he certainly never expected to catch him snogging Jim Moriarty up against the wall of some some run-down old warehouse.

Bonus points for Sebastian and Jim's relationship obviously being a long standing one where they're very comfortable with each other. (Just to, y'know, drive the knife in deeper.) Extra bonus points if it's Sebastian who realises that they're being watched first.

Johnlock - drug play dub-con

[(Anonymous)]

John and Sherlock decide to try something different and with full consent drug Sherlock so he's completely helpless as John has his way with him.

Bonus is they film it so Sherlock can watch it again once the drugs warn off

Re: Johnlock - drug play dub-con

[(Anonymous)]

ooh this hits all my buttons. I really hope it gets filled!

A New Life (Cabin Pressure Crossover)

[(Anonymous)]

Sherlock jumped for John... but things didn't go as planned. He hit his head and became... average. Below average even. The only things he can remember now are useless facts about aviation.

With some help from Mycroft, Sherlock and John start their new life in Fitton... as Martin Creiff and his partner.



I want angsty hurt/comforty goodness about Sherlock adapting trying to adapt to his new life. He still failed the CPL seven times and is Martin in virtually every regard. Maybe MJN finds out he used to be someone else after being introduced to John..?

Super extra bonus points x 1000 if you can manage to fit in ginger being his natural hair color.

Janine AU cause she is awesome and Sherlock could use her

[(Anonymous)]

Remember how we heard C.A.M. say that he did the face flicking thing to Janine - apparently enough times for her to manage to keep her eye open once? That sleaze-ball.

Makes me think what else happened? I must have been quite a bit of a nightmare, working for him, imo.
So let's pretend that spending your work day in an incredibly stressful and sometimes disturbing environment shows on a person and that it is getting steadily worse, as these things tend to; - and let us also pretend that Sherlock while 'dating' Janine is perceptive and observant enough to notice that something is off one day and pretending to be the good boyfriend (and also because he cares a bit after all but shh) he asks Janine about it.

She tells him some of it he deduces the rest and the whole conversation leads to full disclosure of his plans and she agrees to help by the end of it - they keep up the ruse for plausible deniability. They become closer for it - actual friends (and Sherlock feels protective of her the way he feels about the rest of his circle). They continue to be generally awesome together even after the whole Mary shot Sherlock fiasco - maybe she would frequently drop in on Sherlock to cheer him up, tease him a bit, check up on him.
Take it in whatever direction you want from there.

Some bonus questions:
How does she get on with John? What about Mary? Does Molly like her?Does she get to see Sherlock after he shot Magnussen, maybe to say good bye? Does Irene turn up?

TL;DR - Make Sherlock and Janine bond over C.A.M. being an abhorrent bastard and become friends - incorporate her into whatever story you want to tell :) thank you

Re: Janine AU cause she is awesome and Sherlock could use her

The Other One - Enola Holmes, BAMF Little Sister

[(Anonymous)]

When Mycroft mentioned "the other one," he was referring to Enola Holmes, his and Sherlock's much younger sister. The free-spirited black sheep of the family was not only incredibly smart and independent, but also a very accomplished hacker. However, her hacking got her into trouble with the government. Mycroft made it so she could avoid jail time, but the catch was that Enola had to attend a reform boarding school (much to her horror).

She comes home for the holiday and discovers that only has her brother, Sherlock (whose she's always connected to more), was not only shot but now he's being sent off on a suicide mission for killing a bastard who deserved it? Not on her watch.

So being the extraordinary tech-geek she is, Enola creates the Moriarty GIF and scatters it across England, thus saving Sherlock.

Bonus: John being annoyed about Sherlock never telling him about his sister but then endeared by how much Sherlock adores her.
Double Bonus: Mycroft and Enola putting aside their differences and bonding over a shared protectiveness of their sibling.
Triple Bonus: Enola visiting 221B Baker Street and helping solve a case.

Mycroft, Sherlock- Laugh

[(Anonymous)]

When his colleagues buy the whole "My brother is a murderer" line, Mycroft has to fight to keep from laughing. Because if they only knew how many people Mycroft has murdered to keep his brother safe...well, they might try to report him but he'd kill them first.

Anon pls continue this? :( It's SO good.

Sorry, I meant the story here.

Sherstrade - Medieval Arranged Marriage AU

[laidbacktionist.livejournal.com]

Sherstrade Medieval arranged marriage AU in which Lestrade is a knight who just returned victorious from war and so King Mycroft gave him prince Sherlock as a reward.

And maybe Sherlock hates him at first because he thinks knights are all brawn and no brain but Lestrade proved to be smart and witty and brave and reliable and maybe they fall in love but since Lestrade thinks that Sherlock doesn’t want this he asks Mycroft to annul the wedding

And then Sherlock is heartbroken because he thinks Lestrade doesn’t want him and Lestrade is heartbroken because he thinks Sherlock doesn’t want him and maybe they’re being absolute dunderheads that don’t communicate.

Until one day Lestrade is going to another war and he may not return so late at night he comes to Sherlock’s room and begs for a token, and he asks Sherlock to pray for his safe return and maybe once he return Sherlock will give him another chance. And maybe they kissss and do something more -wink wink-

So Lestrade returns from war again and this time when the king asks him the reward he seeks Lestrade asks for Sherlock’s hand, this time out of their own will.

Sherstrade - Aristocats AU

[laidbacktionist.livejournal.com]

Sherstrade Aristocats AU in which Sherlock and John is Duchess Martha Hudson’s most loved cats until her butler Moriarty plans her and her cats’ demise.

AND THEN THEY’RE SAVED BY A HANDSOME STREET CAT WITH SHINING GREY FUR AND SHUT UP JOHN SHERLOCK IS NOT IN LOVE OK (He totally is)

Anyway then Lestrade helped them get home after they met with the Yard cats and had an impromptu jazz session and then maybe they defeat Moriarty and live happily ever after.

Johncroft - Restauranteur/Waiter AU

[laidbacktionist.livejournal.com]

Johncroft AU in which John is a newly hired waiter at a fancy restaurant and Mycroft is the owner of several fancy establishments including the same restaurant.

When Mycroft visited that restaurant John didn’t know who he was and they got into a bit of an argument but several misunderstandings and romcom trope later Mycroft subtly ask him out on a date and John accepts out of provocation.

And maybe that date is somewhere John didn’t expect and maybe Mycroft is an absolute charming gentleman instead of an arrogant prick John thought he is and maybe they kisssssss and they do the frick frack and maybe John cooks for him maybe they live together and maybe Mycroft helps John achieve his dream to open his own cafe and they live happily ever after.

Re: Johncroft - Restauranteur/Waiter AU

[(Anonymous)]

yess!!!!
+1

Sherstrade - Mermaid AU

[laidbacktionist.livejournal.com]

Sherstrade little mermaid AU in which Sherlock falls in love with Prince John so he traded his fins for legs. In the end because his love was not returned he was going to turn to sea foam, but Lestrade made a deal with sea witch Moriarty to spare Sherlock’s life.

Finding out what Lestrade did for him, Sherlock (with Mycroft’s help) fought the sea witch to rescue Lestrade. And they lived happily ever after in the sea and have little tiny mermaids. The end.

Sherlock has fantasies about John performing CPR on him (post-HLV)

[(Anonymous)]

Ever since being shot, Sherlock keeps returning to the thought that John is literally the reason he's still alive. Is it so surprising, then, that he can't stop wondering what it'd feel like to have John breathe life back into him?

Somehow, John finds out about these near-death fantasies. How he responds is up to you.

Re: Sherlock has fantasies about John performing CPR on him (post-HLV)

[(Anonymous)]

Ohhhh, I didn't know I needed this, but I do. Seconding!

Flappy Bird

[(Anonymous)]

Sherlock, Mycroft and Moriarty all taunt each other when they get a higher score on Flappy Bird.

So far, Mycroft is winning... on 4 points.

Bonus if everyone else outscores all three of them.

Re: Flappy Bird

[(Anonymous)]

I'm actually writing a video game Sherlock series fic and I might put this in. Is this ok with you OP?

Mycroft's Mind Palace

[jokers-sanity.livejournal.com]

We all know how Sherlock interprets his older brother in his mind palace - stuffy, condescending, uncaring, etc. While this is somewhat true to his personality, it is more how he appears through Sherlock's eyes.

How would Sherlock be in Mycroft's mind palace?

Heart Place (1/1)

[lothiriel84.livejournal.com]

Oh, Sherlock. What have you done?

His own voice was only a distant echo as he descended the dreary flight of stairs that led to the underground fortress that was his mind palace.

Pain. Compassion. Failure. None of those emotions could touch him there; nothing would never breach the impenetrable walls he raised as a defence against sentiments.

He needed to keep a cool head if he wanted to help his brother. His brother, the only human being he cared about even against his better judgement.

'It's not my fault, Myc,' the spoilt brat whined in his head. For he always pictured him as a child, the child that had been the torment – but also the secret delight – of his teenage years.

He berated himself for opening that door again. There was a precise reason why he kept this particular room locked; it was his heart place, the secret vault where he confined everything that was transport and therefore extremely dangerous.

'Come on, Myc. Let's play a game,' the boy pleaded, tugging at his sleeve.

'Not now, Sherlock,' he huffed in frustration. 'Can't you see that I'm busy?'

Focus, Mycroft. There has to be a way out of this sorry mess, and you have to find it.

However, little Sherlock stubbornly refused to take no as an answer. 'Let's play trust fall. You catch me first.'

That was something they had actually done more than once, with mixed results. Sherlock had the silly habit of letting himself fall at the most unexpected moments, relying in his brother's fast reflexes – though they weren't fast enough on at least a couple of occasions, which had resulted in some nasty bruises for the reckless little boy. Mycroft, on the other hand, had always found the experience rather unpleasant; he knew he was too heavy for his little brother, and never really trusted him completely with his full weight.

His arms instinctively supported the young rascal as he dropped backwards, and a laughter he hadn't heard in years filled his ears.

'I knew you'd catch me. You always catch me, even when I jump off a rooftop.'

And then, in a moment of sudden clarity, he saw it. The leverage he could use to save his brother.

There will always come a time when we need Sherlock Holmes.

In the meanwhile, he had to behave as dispassionately as ever if he wanted the rest of the world to buy his act. So he locked his heart place once more, pocketed its key and stepped back into the grim reality.
