Points of Light repostathon: chapter 3
This fic is being reposted due to accidental deletion - details on the fic itself if you’re interested.
Ch4 will be reposted tomorrow and the epilogue/extras on Wednesday.
Title: Points of Light Chapter 3 Author: pennypaperbrain
Beta: Chloe and eldritchhorrors
Fic rating: NC-17
Fic warnings: suicidal thoughts, depression, explicit consensual BDSM in a romantic, equal relationship
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Wordcount: 2,787 for this chapter; about 16,000 for the completed fic
Spoilers: First three episodes
Disclaimer: I don’t own any of these characters. I couldn’t be trusted with them. There’d be kinky slash everywhere.
Chapter Summary: The events at the pool shock Sherlock and John into an honest assessment of what they want and need from each other. And the next day, they start to put it into practice.
Fic Summary: I like fennishjournal's mini-review better than I like my own original summary, so here it is: 'John and Sherlock are broken but their jagged edges fit together in a way that is almost painfully right. This is intense and powerful and desperate. There is a scene where John tops the fuck out of Sherlock and, dear God, is it ever intense.'
There's BDSM in the mix, but it's not the main focus of the fic. PoL is a relationship study, in which sex is a significant element but far from being the sole theme. It's about needing something right down to the bottom of your soul, and perhaps eventually getting it.
