Prompting Part XXXV

[sherlockbbc_fic]

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

Sherlock takes John leaving him worse than John took his 'suicide'. Non-Con, Drugs.

[(Anonymous)]

There's no Mary. Or Mary's identity was discovered early and she and John broke up before their wedding.

John and Sherlock try to make things the way they were before the fake suicide, but it doesn't really work. John can't stop thinking that Sherlock has so little faith in him that John had to be 'protected' thinking that Sherlock is dead while plenty of other people knew he was alive. Hadn't John proved that he could be included, too, and could cover Sherlock's back one way or another like a good friend and a soldier he is, instead of being lied to?

The damage is too much. John decides that he needs something else at the moment. One of his old fiends offers him job: some special team of soldiers made to deal with dangerous things (maybe with criminals who have got a lot of money, people and weapons). Anything like that would do, really, as long as it's something honourable and John is useful. A lot of danger and some time away from Sherlock is just what John needs.

Openly or secretly, Sherlock is devastated when John leaves. Maybe he even makes an effort to change John's mind, even knowing it won't work.

John thinks he won't be away for long, but he gets more and more interesting missions, becomes the leader of the men he's been working with. He even gets more of the military insignia for his service.

He gets Sherlock's letter/message, but either he doesn't reply or his reply is just for the sake of reply. He does miss Sherlock, really loves him, but he's sure they shouldn't see each other just yet (and maybe some dark part of John wants revenge for all the pain Sherlock has caused him).

John hasn't seen Sherlock for a couple of years. But then he finally decides to come back and learns that Sherlock is missing, and even before that Sherlock made sure to drive all people who cared about him away. Lestrade has long stopped trying to reach Sherlock for a case and others have moved on, too. But the fact that Sherlock is missing is alarming, because even Mycroft can't find him. John is very worried and doesn't know what to do.

Some time later a homeless person (who acts on his or her own accord. Maybe owes Sherlock something) brings John a message with some address. John goes there and finds some horrible drug den (something that makes Billy's den look like a clean and decent entertainment room full of nice people). There are even a couple of dead people who overdosed and everybody's too high to notice them or John.

John finds Sherlock there, barely alive, in a very bad shape. Sherlock did have money with him when he came there some time ago, but when he threw it all away on drugs, it was so bad he couldn't even get up to get more money, so he allowed his body to be used just to get another shot of heroin he can't even administer himself any longer. He doesn't care, he's not responsive when somebody fucks him, even though he's a person who'd never even had sex before. It gets him drugs and he's too far gone to care about anything else.

Terrified, John gets him out of there and gets him to a hospital, but Sherlock is a shell of his former self and John is the only one who can pick up the pieces, which takes a lot of time and care.

Heavy angst and hurt/comfort would make me happy. John/Sherlock as a pairing is more than welcome, but no pre-established relationship, please.
