Fic Rec: John's Dragon

Title: John's Dragon
Author: winterhill
Pairing: John Watson & dragon!Sherlock Holmes
Length: 5775
Rating: Gen
Warnings: None (besides dragon slobber)
Verse: Sherlock BBC (crossover with How to Train Your Dragon)

Authors Summary: Sherlock is peculiar, disgusting, and completely useless at being a decent dragon.

Reccer's comments: If you liked Hiccup's voice when narrating the movie How to Train Your Dragon, then John's will be perfect.I went in expecting Sherlock to be a total beast, and got a fully fleshed dragon with Sherlock personality traits who was utterly endearing and a John who was easily irritated and (of course) is susceptible to Sherlock's charms. It is chock full of humor and wry personality along with John as a healer and (of course) a healthy dose of action and mystery. Even Sherlock the dragon gets bored and has to solve problems! This is a definite cute pick-me-up and is a very fun read.
