Sherlock Fanfiction Recs I

There are a lot of Sherlock fanfiction out there, but here are my recommendation. Will be updated, of course. I will also make a masterpost or sth like that. I have always wanted to make the so-called fanfiction recommendation list but I have never got the time or I am just that unproductive. But at last here you go.

There are more Johnlock here (one Mystrade but still), but more pairing will come next time!!
