Fic Rec: Perdition's Flames
Title: Perdition's Flames
Author:
i_ship_an_armada
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Length: 63,435 words
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: Sherlock would do anything to save him. Risk anything. Give anything. His money, his life. His soul. What he does, though, is change both of their destinies forever. Genetic re-engineering is the only option left. It turns out researchers underestimated the life expectancy and potential abilities of genetically re-engineered subjects. The British government and what would eventually become the United Federation of Planets, however, had not.
Reccer's comments: The ultimate STID (Star Trek: Into Darkness) Treklock fusion. Sherlock Holmes *is* Khan, and he owns it hard. Action, mystery, science, badassery, and the power of love combine to reunite Sherlock and John after two centuries of each thinking the other dead. Knowledge of the movie is not necessary, nor will you be spoiled if you've seen the movie.
It's a blast seeing Sherlock outmaneuver the Klingons, Starfleet, and the entire Federation, only to be thrown completely off by a single look from John. The rest of the characters are given excellent development as well, with great banter from Bones, Scotty, and the rest of the Enterprise's crew. Rounded out by a superb performance from Lt. Moira Hargreaves, who just may be channeling one of our favourite pathologists.

“Why am I here?” Sherlock could barely understand himself, his voice so rough from two hundred years of disuse.
“Because you are the best of your kind, and as for the rest...all in good time, Mr. Holmes. For the time being, all you need to know is that you are in the middle of deep space, on a Dreadnought class starship staffed with Starfleet personnel directed to neutralize you at the slightest sign of aggression. Your enhanced intellect and strength will get you nothing but killed if you attempt to escape.”
Sherlock did not care about this.
He only cared about one thing, and no matter what this trained monkey thought, once Sherlock set his mind to something, there was nothing or no one who could stop him.
