Fic Rec: Transcript 72. Sherlock/John Watson
Title: Transcript 72.Sherlock/John Watson
Author: UpperEchelonDork
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Length: 19796 (around 6,000 for the chapter in question)
Rating: Mature
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: While traveling to Paris, John texts Sherlock.
Reccer's comments: I am reccing this, despite it being an unfinished WIP (last updated 5/5/2012), because the first chapter can be read as a solid stand-alone one-shot. This chapter is entirely (except for the last few lines) a text conversation between Sherlock and John, while John is on a train to Paris and Sherlock remains in London on a case. I am a sucker for texting fic, and this chapter is the best I've seen in the Sherlock fandom. It is funny, sad, heartwarming and subtly flirtatious. The story starts out with a misunderstanding between Sherlock and John that results in John taking Sarah with him to Paris to attend a friend's wedding. Sherlock gets involved in a case and takes to texting John details and ideas as he works to solve it. Their conversation drifts back and forth between the case, light-hearted banter and serious heart-to-heart discussions. They invariably work their way to more personal revelations, some that are just on this side of unspoken, unacknowledged sentiments.
The author gives the story a mature rating, although what's been written so far doesn't go beyond a 'teen'. Remember, this is a WIP, but I would seriously recommend only reading the chapter I refer to here, otherwise you might just go insane waiting for something that hasn't updated in several months.
