Fic Rec: The Rule Of Three

Title: The Rule of Three
Author: [livejournal.com profile] killalla
Pairing: SH/JW/MH
Length: ~7,500 words
Rating: PG
Warnings: none
Verse: ACD Books

Author's summary: Beginnings, endings and a most unconventional arrangement.

Reccer's comments: Here's a fic which has been buried in the back pages of Cox&Co. since - hold on - 2005. Many of the author's other fics are on AO3, but for some reason, this one isn't.
Remember, in canon we are never given any indication of how old Martha Hudson is. In this charming story told from her point of view, Killalla has chosen to envision her as a contemporary of Holmes and Watson. It's a sweet and unusual tale of an arrangement that stays completely true to the characters as we know them and true to the times in which they lived.

Mods, I think we need a tag for Pairing:SH/JW/Martha or some such.

Hi, sorry this took a few days but I added the pairing tag.

Amended the tag to "mrs hudson" -- she's Martha in BBC Sherlock but her first name is never used in the books.
