Title: the dead-end case of the kilted kirkyard killer
Author: darcylindbergh
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Length: 8893 words
Rating: Explicit
Verse: BBC
Author's summary: Of course, a man walking about Edinburgh while wearing a dark-patterned kilt was not suspicious in and of itself. But a man walking about Edinburgh alone, in the night, so close to the hunting grounds of a serial killer, wearing the costume the killer preferred to hunt in--now that might be worth looking into. Sherlock stepped back into the shadows of the buildings and followed after him.
*In which Sherlock follows the wrong man and gets more than he bargained for.

Reccer's comments: Another excellent fic from this author, this alternate first meeting in Edinburgh is endearing and tender and sexy and engaging, featuring a murder in a haunted graveyard and BAMF John in a kilt.  It's a fantastic romp, with humor and Scottishness and vulnerability, all in the same short, skillful, pleasingly alliterative fic.  <3
