Reccer's comments:
One of my all time favourite h/c fics in this fandom. (Watson!whump galore!) I love stories where the emotional hurt of a character is making me hurt for them in return... means the happy ending will be that much sweeter. /sappy comment
This is short but to the point concerning their respective fears and character flaws. And even though they're both sort of messed up, they still make it work in the end :).

Fic Rec: Faerie-Touched

Title: Faerie-Touched
Author: blind_author
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Length: A long one-shot, in two LJ posts.
Rating: M
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC.
Author's summary: AU. In a world of sorcerers and magic, Sherlock is a Faerie-born and John, lacking any kind of magical talent, often seems a bit out of place. But he has a gift all his own...
Reccer's comments: I always like blind_author's work and this new piece is delightful. I'm kind of an AU junkie, and magic AUs are no exception, so I was on board from the summary, but unless you are violently allergic to AUs you'll love it, too. Featuring excellent characterization, a nicely paced plot that works with canon rather than veering off in a totally different direction, and a healthy dose of BAMF!John. How can you go wrong?
