Fic Rec: On the Orbits of Asteroids

Title:On the Orbits of Asteroids

Author: Sheila_Snow
Pairing: James Moriarty/John Watson, Sherlock Holmes/John Watson
Length: 22279 words
Rating: Explicit
Verse: ACD
Warnings: None
Author's summary: Watson has a secret from his past that he's kept from Holmes, but the past has a tendency to come back and haunt you.

Watson is definitely the star of this story. It's a story with an unexpected twist. It's sad and a little humorous and a completely different look at all the characters we thought we knew so well, with more than one surprise relationship lurking within. It takes all the tropes and turns them on their heads, yet manages to keep everyone perfectly in character. Oh, and it's hot. And Watson is a BAMF.

I think this is the author's only story in this fandom; I wish she would write more.
