Reccer's comments: Happy January 29th, everyone! (It's the day that Sherlock Holmes and John Watson first met, according to the BBC show's timeline.) Today, I'd like to recommend this lovely little vignette, which takes up the prompt: "Sherlock courting John." It's full of simple, surprisingly traditional romantic gestures, and I find Sherlock's air of gentle formality and unabashed sincerity delightful. The final image of the story is perfect.
