Shamelessly stolen from
fuyu_no_fuhei: Posting the names of all the files in my Sherlock WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Choose one (or a few, I don't care), and I will post a random line or two.

The jumpers/jam thing is mostly on tumblr, I think - and it does take a while to get accustomed to, I suppose, but I've been in this fandom since about a month on from its inception, so I've had my shots - but the thing is, there have been quite a lot of excellent ace!Sherlock stories, whether he did end up in a purely romantic, non-sexual relationship with John, or they just remained the epic bros they already are. I can look some up for you, if you want? ah, yeah. I'm not saying your interpretation is wrong, you do understand, I don't think any interpretation is wrong by this point, because my view of Sherlock balances pretty equally between sexual and asexual, and I tend to write him as, uh, both (in different stories, I mean). I don't have a fixed interpretation of him, and I don't have a fixed interpretation of his relationship with John. I just. I just love them together, I guess, regardless of what their relationship is - they adore each other, platonically or romantically, and that's pretty much the only thing that matters to me.

If you could find me any ace!Sherlock fics that you recommend -- don't work too hard because it's alright if you don't!! -- I'd appreciate it~ and I totally understand about interpretations of him going both ways. I suppose I... could start ficcing for Sherlock, though I don't really know any BBC Sherlock communities here?? (So basically what I'm saying is point me in the right direction and I'll fumble my way into this after a while.)
Anyway your speech was fine! And not really a rant. :D It totally makes sense. ♥
Also I don't know if you were ever part of the Inception fandom, but I got back into it for a little bit and found lovely ace!Eames fic and a few ace!Arthur fics and was entirely too happy. (If you want the links, I believe I can provide. XD)

I shall look into recs rather thoroughly, but right now you can at least check out flawedamythyst's Horse and Carriage series, in which asexual!Sherlock and straight!John get married for practicality purposes - their relationship straddles the line between friendship and romantic entanglement all the time, and the effect's rather gorgeous. It's one of my favourites in this fandom, tbh.
Re: communities, the one nearly everbody uses, despite the fact that the mods aren't the ... well, aren't really the best, is sherlockbbc. Very nearly everything - fic, art, fanmixes, discussions - gets posted there. Then there's 221b-recs, which has most of the best stuff. We have holmesian_news, the newsletter with round-ups of everything that gets posted in all the Sherlock/Sherlock Holmes fandom very nearly every day. Then there are discussion-specific comms - you might be interested in asexy-sherlock - pairing comms, actor comms, updates comms. And the fic meme, of course. :D
I am partly into Inception fandom, so recs would be greatly appreciated! I dunno, I guess I'd be more into it if Sherlock wasn't around, but right now I'm perfectly happy with reading what people tell me is good. ♥
