Prompting Part XXXVII

This is the new prompting post for the Sherlock Prompting Meme. Prompts from LJ can still be filled there with links here or filled here in the new overflow post.

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

Please do not re-post prompts unless the last time they were prompted was on an older part. Simply put: ONE posting of each prompt per part.

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.

Sherlock deleted Madonna entirely to get away with stealing one of Mycroft's Madonna albums when he was a young teenager. John stumbles across it while looking for something else (after the stag night, of course).

Mummy knows Mary shot Sherlock, her boys could never hide anything from her even if they thought she was clueless. But Mummy was Head Girl at St Trinian's in her day; she knows a thing or two about a well executed revenge plot and has the contacts to carry it out. Nobody gets away with shooting her baby boy after stealing his boyfriend, nor is she going to let him go on a suicide mission while she still breathes. She'll turn absolutely monstrous!

In other words, Mummy fixes everything behind Sherlock and Mycroft's backs and looks fabulous while doing it. ;)

Don't care if it's tied to the St Trinian's movies or just the general idea of St Trinian's. (Honestly, feel free to never mention the last movie at all or the older one a very young Alex Kingston was in.)

Brownie points if one of her old school contacts is Judi Dench's M. (*sniff* Loved her.)

Just dropping in to say this prompt is brilliant.

So during the Reichenbach Falls, instead of faking his death, Sherlock made a deal with a demon (maybe Moriarty??) for his soul in exchange for the permanent safety of his friends. Instead of ten years Sherlock is given ten minutes (makes the phone call to John, prepares himself for death) and makes it look like a suicide to keep John from wondering what happened to him. He is take to hell and tortured for decades until he is mysteriously rescued. In the real world it's only been about 3 years.

Modify however you like I just really want to see Sherlock in hell being tortured and then rescued.

Bonus points if John had no idea what actually happened to Sherlock and tries to punch him before he notices how different he looks from 3 years ago

One of our duo learns that the other wears glasses and has been hiding it for whatever reason. Its a surprising turn on.
RTMIs welcome!

I would be happy to read more glasses kink, so, seconding!

In the meantime here's a couple of RTYIs:

The Doctor's Prescription by patternofdefiance

http://archiveofourown.org/works/1102232

It’s Not Just Twenty-Twenty by sobota (This is only PG rated. But it's well written and charming and still fits the glasses kink bill, in a rather mild sort of way.)

Sherlock is held down and fucked with a baseball bat. It's up to you whether he enjoys it or not.

Please write the filthy badwrong omegaverse Magnussen/Sherlock this kinkmeme deserves.

Choose the kinks YOU prefer to write.

Omega!Sherlock and Alpha!Magnussen required.

John is kidnapped by insert villain here and is injected with drugs, preferably cocaine. They don't beat him or torture him, just drug him for long enough that he becomes addicted. Eventually he is found by an extremely worried Sherlock and Lestrade. Sherlock deduces that he was given cocaine on a regular basis and is going to start withdrawal soon. John is taken back to Baker Street by Sherlock who takes care of him throughout the entire process. Afterwards, John starts to understand Sherlock's previous addiction and the random drug cravings.

seconded!

Dark John pimping Sherlock out for money.

Mary is at home masturbating with a vibrator. Moriarity takes her by surprise and decides to have some fun.

+forced orgasms
++Moriarity being creepy
+++please don't hurt the baby

He happens across her after one of her bad breakups, where she's drunk to almost the point of hysterics in the back corner of a shady bar.

Mycroft takes her back to his place, gets her cleaned up, forces a few glasses of water down her throat, and puts her to bed.

Molly is understandably very confused the next morning when she wakes up in a strange place in someone else's clothes with her only memory of the night before being that she wanted to drink herself dead.

Mycroft, used to Sherlock's drug problems, has absolutely no problem sitting Molly down and having a good long talk about substance abuse.

I would love to see a fic where Sherlock notices that John has a habit of always chewing/biting/sucking on something, and they talk about it and John admits that it always comforts him to have something in his mouth, which of course applies to his sex life as well, so Sherlock integrates this into their relationship and maybe makes oral sex a bigger deal, lets John suck his fingers, or gets John some toys that he can suck on, things of that nature. RTYI's welcome!

Ooh, ooh! Can I take a stab at this, please?! Maybe...not with the sexual bits though? I can't, for the life of me, write that kind of stuff the way I love to read it. The rest of it is kosher for my style, tho!

So a complete 180 to the usual virgin/inexperienced!Sherlock headcanons, I want a Sherlock that has had plenty of experiences -- during boarding school with fellow posh boys, uni days with professors (some of them must've been brilliant enough to a young Sherlock), kinky stuff during his heavy drug use days, undercover at sex clubs for cases, etc.

John is surprised (and intrigued, of course!) that Sherlock only *chooses* not to engage in sex b/c he's got more interesting things to do. Cue John's obsession w/ bedding Sherlock the sex god.

"Why are you determined to be alone?"
"Because the only person I've ever loved enough to be with is happily married."

In which John pushes just a bit farther and Sherlock snaps back with this. Watson doesn't realize it at first, but Sherlock's talking about John. When John does get it, he reveals to Sherlock that he might be married, but not happily.

So, for me, the saddest part in the Abominable Bride was Mycroft blaming himself for Sherlock's drug use. I need a fix it.

After getting Sherlock settled back into Baker Street, John calls Mycroft to tell him that it's not his fault.

Deanoning to post this that popped into my head:

As it turned out, Sherlock wasn’t quite as ready to begin work as he thought he was when he got into the car with John and Mary. The brief bout of lucidity was followed, frighteningly enough, with Sherlock losing consciousness once again as soon as he sat down, his head lolling back against the seat. He muttered unintelligible fragments of words and sentences as the car sped toward Baker Street, John and Mary both monitoring Sherlock’s pulse and airway while discussing care.

“Baker Street? Really, John?” Mary said, looking up from Sherlock’s pale face. “Shouldn’t we be going to hospital? Or, at least, shouldn’t we be taking him to our place so we can keep an eye on him?”

John laughed wryly. “I don’t think we have a choice other than Baker Street. We can’t take him to A&E without alerting the authorities that a murderer is on the loose; Mycroft can fix this, but only if we don’t leave too many messes for him to clean up in the meantime. And Baker Street is probably the next best place to handle a near overdose. I’ve had a kit stashed there for years; never needed it ‘til now, but I’m certain Sherlock didn’t get rid of it.”

Mary cocked an eyebrow in mild surprise as John continued. “He’s not stupid. Believe it or not, he knows that this is a possible result of drug use, and I think he thought of me as a kind of safety net.” John rubbed his eyes, adding, “He’d been clean for so long, Mary. All those times Mycroft thought it was a ‘danger night,’ and I never found anything, never saw anything, never had a reason to suspect so much as slip-up. He was in a bad way if he took this much after not using for so long.”

Once they arrived at Baker Street, it was controlled chaos for a while. The pair manhandled Sherlock up the seventeen stairs to the flat and got him to the couch. John ran for his emergency kit – as he predicted, untouched – while Mary positioned Sherlock safely and continued to monitor him. A dose of naloxone, and Sherlock was sputtering back awake with a fierce headache and, John thought, a slightly guilty look in his eyes.

Mary was able to convince Sherlock that he needed to be in bed; Moriarty would wait, as dead men were so good at doing. John shook his head in a bit of wonder that Mary was able to so easily convince Sherlock of what he needed to do, guiding him back to his bedroom and helping him to change to pajamas and get into bed. She sat with him in the short time it took him to fall into a much-less-drugged sleep, then returned to the lounge to see John staring at his phone.

“John?”

“I can’t believe I’m about to do this,” John said, “but I think I need to call Mycroft. We had a bit of a talk getting off the plane, and I think I’m actually worried about him.”

Mary went to the kitchen to make some tea and give John some privacy as John dialed Mycroft’s private line. Unsurprisingly, Mycroft picked up immediately.

“Holmes speaking. Dr. Watson, what news have you?” John thought he could hear the same anxiety in Mycroft’s voice that was there on the plane.

“Mycroft, he’s going to be fine. We got him back to Baker Street, gave him some naloxone to counter at least the opiate part of things, and he’s sleeping right now. He’s going to have a hell of a hangover, but I don’t think there’s any permanent damage done. You caught him in time.”

That last sentence was deliberate. John took a deep breath and continued on.

“Mycroft, I feel a little strange saying this, but I think someone has to. This wasn’t your fault.”

“John, really, I,” Mycroft began to deflect.

“No, really, Mycroft. Don’t you think I know a little bit about you by now? I don’t believe for a second that you don’t care, especially about your brother. And you know what? That’s not a weakness; that’s part of being human. You’re right to care, but you’re not right to blame yourself. Sherlock’s behavior is not your fault. It isn’t your fault he’s used drugs in the past, and it isn’t your fault he used them today.”

John heard a very soft sigh that sounded a bit like, “But I should have,” so he cut Mycroft off again.

“No, listen to me. Maybe Sherlock had some really good reasons for needing to dull the pain today. But none of them are your responsibility. From what I can piece together, you did everything in your power to give him a chance at living, from the moment we got on that helicopter to Appledore. You may be the British Government, but you’re not omnipotent, and you’re not responsible for everything that happens to Sherlock.”

Here John paused. After a beat, Mycroft sighed and said, “Thank you, John. I shall take your comments seriously. It is possible that I have become…too close to the matter to be objective.”

“Happens to the best of us,” John said with a laugh. “Even to people who aren’t goldfish.

“You will keep me posted?” Mycroft continued.

“Of course,” John said. “But I think you can rest easy at the moment.”

With that, Mycroft ended the call, and, a second later, John shut his phone off. He went to the kitchen and joined Mary, and together they waited for Sherlock to recover.

love this!

Would you write a story?

Sherloick orJohn is send back in his old body with his memories?

A story where the characters are watching the series.

Or a person( this world) goes into their world. /or they come into this world.

A Sherlock x Harry Potter crossover where Sherlock rescues harry and adopts him or finds out he's his biological son.
Or they meet 3rd year after he run off.
Or he finds him on the doorstep ( dursleys)
Or they abandoned the doorstepbaby in London's streets.

Sally was right. Sherlock does get off on crime scenes. More specifically, he gets off on imagining John as the murderer.

Magnussen either rapes or tries to rape Sherlock. Mycroft finds out and makes sure his punishment is long and painful.

There is no interruption from Moriarity, and Sherlock is sent away on the plane. Mycroft can't intervene in time, and Sherlock is killed.

A few months later, Mary's baby comes into the world as a pale, crying child with dark curls, blue eyes, and high cheekbones. (Baby can be male or female, I'm not picky - after all, Sherlock IS a girl's name...)

They name the child Sherlock in honor of the best friend they both lost, and for a while life is normal.

Then the child starts to grow up, and shows a strikingly familiar amount of cleverness - especially when it comes to solving mysteries. Sherlock has been reincarnated as their child, and John and Mary will do ANYTHING to protect him/her.

Don't care whether it's an AU or for a case or what, but Sherlock ends up as a fortune teller in a circus or carnival. He ends up with a hugely long line for his tent because he gives such creepily accurate deductions/fortunes about people's lives.

+1!!

The reason why the other brother is never in the picture is because Mycroft banned him from seeing Sherlock. Sherlock is the baby brother, he should be protected and cherished, certainly not used as a pawn in a spy game that he wasn't a part of.

The other brother, an agent for MI6 saw his mark had a type - Sherlock fit the description and the other brother used this to his advantage, leading to Sherlock being raped and this in turn lead Sherlock down the path of drug abuse. Mycroft was furious and he watched helplessly as Sherlock pushed Mycroft away as well since he perceived Mycroft to be the government and also approved the other brother's choice of plan.

But now after so many years, the other brother finds a way back into Sherlock and Mycroft's lives. Mycroft is furious and tries to stop it while Sherlock pretends it doesn't bother him. Meanwhile poor John doesn't understand why Mycroft is refusing what looks like a loving older brother trying to get in touch with his beloved younger brother. And neither Mycroft or Sherlock is willing to explain. When the truth comes out though...

Seconded!

Sherlock decides he's too nervous around people, and tries to solve problems his own way, and that his fighting skills are subpar, anyway. After all, Moriarty defeated him in his own mind!

So he takes up boxing.
He's not very good at it, and he's not particularly ... attractive in the ring with his scarred back and pale, freckly skin. People ask too many questions and he rebuffs them.

But he does learn how to fight better, even if he's still not very good.

Give me that John decides to show up to a match, and John doesn't recognize Sherlock at first.

+bonus
Johnlock
tons of h/c
Sherlock actually has physical problems maybe boxing isn't good for him.

Seconding! I'd love to write it, but I've already got two stories on my list :(

Sherlock and Lestrade are highly protective of each other. This comes out in the form of hurting criminals who hurt Sherlock/Lestrade.

+1000

John's had a hard life. His parents and sister are neglectful. He's not close to his other family members. He has few close friends. He was gang-raped on at least one occasion and his military career was very eventful. John's not used to having anyone care about him and, so, assumes that most people don't. John's surprised when, on Sherlock's enemies going after him, Mycroft comes to the rescue. At first, John thinks it's an accident or that Sherlock made Mycroft help him. Then, one day, John's looking into his life prior to meeting Sherlock and realizes that every person who ever raped, shot at, or hurt him has either gone missing or been found under suspicious circumstances. At last, he realizes that Mycroft's come to see him as a kind of adopted brother.

Fuck yeah.

Sherlock believes that John deserves the best of everything. So, when they get together, Sherlock wants to make sure he's doing everything he can to make John feel loved and cared for. The problem is, he's not experienced in romantic relationships. So, naturally, he reads gossip magazines to find out what to do.

John realizes something's up, because surprising him with dinner and asking his advice on things is nice, but just isn't Sherlock. Still, he doesn't realize exactly what's going on until he finds Cosmo lying around.
