I Will Always Love You by Jessie Blackwood
PAIRING: Sherlock/John
FANDOM: Sherlock
WARNING: WiP
SUMMARY: Another of my AUs taking its inspiration from the Bodyguard movie. Sherlock is a virtuoso violinist, John is the bodyguard brought in to consult on security issues. Mycroft is Sherlock's manager and Mrs Hudson is his music arranger. I am not counting this as a cross-over with the Bodyguard because I am using the premise only. No characters from the movie will appear.

The Need For Transparency by Jessie Blackwood
PAIRING: Mycroft/Lestrade & Sherlock/John
FANDOM: Sherlock
WARNING: This one might be considered to be a bit dark. It’s a Mystrade, but not in the usual way. Some major character(s) are dead, but this is a ghostly tale, people. Who knows what may happen...?
SUMMARY: Waking up in hospital is always overrated, and after Greg gets shot, he wakes up in hospital with no memory of the event or the six months prior to it. To cap it all Sherlock and John are estranged, not talking to each other. Now there’s something funny going on. Greg is seeing things, and people, who aren’t there. Is he going mad? Are these hallucinations brought on PTSD? An uncertain future is complicated still further by the return of Sherlock’s brother, but the man’s been dead for over a year. History repeating itself? Pity that Mycroft is...not the man he was….

Miracle on Islington High Street by Jessie Blackwood
