While I'm Thinking About It

I adore the RDJ Sherlock Holmes movies, and if I hadn't been sicker than a dog the week Game of Shadows came out, I'd have seen it more than the once I have so far! Was wondering if anyone had any fic recs? I don't read a lot of fic anymore, but have had a bit of an urge lately for Holmes fic, and most of what I'm finding is slash. I'm particularly

You could try looking at holmes-finders or agoshadows-fic.

Thank you.

You can also try great_tales, violinandwatch and sherlockhet. These are more present day Sherlock fics so you'll need to do a bit of a search for the RDJ & JL ones. They are there. There's also no slash on these sites.

If you care for the present day Sherlock fics, I highly recommend Richefic's work over at FF.N as well.

Thanks. Not much of a fan of the modern day series, but will add to the list :)

I've checked back here several times because I'd love to read such a story too!

Alas, I'm a bit afraid to go poking a place that's explicitly nonslash, iykwim, unless I know its rationale.

Have you checked out holmeswatson09?

Sorry, I'm dense this morning, so not sure I understand.

Looks like that's a slash comm, but thanks for the link.

As in, is it nonslash because it's handy to have a safe space for nonslash, or is it nonslash because gay people are yucky (and progressing from there).

I understand it's hard to be completely nonhet w/o pretending no canonical relationships exist; but I also feel that way about demanding things completely nonslash, in that I do read the sexuality of some default!straight characters as being complex, and write them that way, even when there are no overt relationships in a story (most of my fic is very gen!).

Okay, now I get what you meant. Thanks for explaining.
