Title: If Watson Were a Poet, Or 5 Sonnets John Wrote and One He Never Finished with Commentary by Sherlock Holmes (or here on AO3)
Author: numberthescars/numberthescars
Pairing: Gen
Length: 1815 words
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: What it says on the tin. John writes poetry, and Sherlock hacks into his computer and "fixes" it with track changes.
Shakespearean sonnets, John? How ambitious.

Reccer's comments: Shakespearean sonnets, how cool is that?, was my first thought. That was before I saw Sherlock's edits. The poems are fun. Sherlock's commentary (and/or John's mistakes) make them even better.

This fic made me laugh and tickled my literary fancies. numberthescars captures John and Sherlock's interaction and their voices. I could see this happen.

The form and small details like the email addresses add an extra special something to this poetry fic.
