Author's summary: Sherlock ran a website called The Science Of Seduction, on which he gave advice on the best ways to get laid, wrote blog entries detailing the results of his various sexual 'experiments' and generally contributed to the stereotype of 'every gay man is a sex-mad playboy'. John avoided the thing like the plague. AU in which Sherlock treats sex like he does crime in canon. Inspired by Queer As Folk UK, but it very quickly went its own way.
Reccer's comments: Nothing I love more than a story that promises crack, but then delivers so much more. Sherlock is still absolutely Sherlock here, except all his powers of observation are now dedicated to deducing the sexual habits of others and using the information to get laid. He’ll have sex with any man once – and only once. Any man, that is, except his best friend and flatmate. Over the course of the three stories, this series offers everything – humor and romance and suspense. The plot is surprisingly gripping, and it all wraps up very nicely by the end.
