Author: Basingstoke

Author's summary: In which John learns to balance a kinky girlfriend, an asexual boyfriend, a ten-inch cock, his sister, the neighbours, his friends, and his blog. Some are more balanced than others.
Reccer's comments: Oh, I don't know how that happened that this gem hasn't been recced yet? It's not as if the author is unknown, and it has tons of comments and kudos on AO3. Is it possible that people thought that it doesn't need reccing? I would disagree here. There's always a possibility that someone might have missed it, and it's definitely a must, must read. It's angsty at some places, hilarious in others, and flirting with crack on each page, never, though, becoming it. Just the usual madness of 221B Baker Street, being presented in laconic descriptions, snatches of conversations electronic and not, and lots of sexual relations, deviant and not. Being put together by the ridiculously talented author (really, I'd have given much to be able to write as she does, she needs just a paragraph where I would need a page!) it's quite probably one of the very best stories written in this fandom. Oh, and it has a new incarnation of Mary Morstan, up to date my most favorite one. I have a tender spot for the stories where author can make the J/S/MM threesome work, and Basingstoke definitely does.
