fic rec: Working on the Edges
Title: Working on the Edges
Author: earlgreytea68
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Length: 56089 words
Rating: Mature
Verse: BBC
Author's summary: No matter where you put Sherlock and John, they click. Including the Winter Olympics.
Reccer's comments: Happy International Fanworks Day! Here is one of my favorites which, shockingly enough, no one has recced here yet, but I think it's one of egt68's best. I adore this AU; it may be set on the ice, but the warmth and sweetness of this fic make it a pure pleasure to read, without ever tipping over too far into the saccharine. Who doesn't love seeing Sherlock and John overcome the odds (and with the added bonus of figure skater!Sherlock)? This is one of my go-to feel-good fics; reading it never fails to lift my mood, and that's no small thing. It's a pure joyous leap of a story.
