Summary
An alternative first meeting for John Watson and Sherlock Holmes -- with conditions that are close to how it goes according to canon, but, well, not exactly.
There is still Mike Stamford and Bart's and Mrs. Hudson and 221B, but Sherlock and John first meet when John is already in residence at Baker Street (at the bottom of the stairs, rather than at the top), courtesy of Mike and Mrs. H putting their heads together about how to coax two skittish recluses to venture forth and spark joy. Assistance lent by Mycroft Holmes, Molly Hooper, Greg Lestrade, Angelo, and Pendragon the Cat. Things may not always go quite smoothly, but over the course of a month, it's just a matter of degrees of fluff until John and Sherlock end up where they should be.

Summary
"For a second, I allow myself to remember teaching John how to waltz. There is a special room in my mind palace for it. A big one, with a proper parquet dance floor. For a second, I go there. I remember holding him, closer than the World Dance Council asks for, excusing it with the fact that we are training for a wedding, not for a competition. For a second, I feel his hand on mine again, smell his sweat, hear the song we used. For a second, I allow myself to love him deeply. For a second, only a second, that love reflects on my face."
Fix-it for S3, starting at the end of TSoT. Written from Sherlock's POV.
If you like to see Mary as one of the good guys, you might want to stop reading right here.

“Sherlock, do you believe that you deserved the beating John gave you?”
He’s quiet. This question is an unsolvable riddle, every time he’s asked it.
~*~
Sherlock has never known how to take care of himself — let alone anybody else. But if he wants John back in his life, he knows he’ll have to try. In the wake of Mary’s death and John’s rejection, a countryside retreat and a new friendship help Sherlock begin to grow into a better man.

Summary
After the events of Sherrinford, the Holmes family is forever altered. Mycroft no longer has anything to hide, but instead must find a way to win back his brother's trust. Sherlock is faced with truths about himself long-buried, and both of the brothers Holmes realize that their positions in the world are no longer as fixed as they might have seemed.
Along with these realizations come new opportunities. Mycroft finds himself drawn to Inspector Lestrade, and now that all his secrets have been laid bare he finds he doesn't want to hold back anymore. Sherlock too begins to find it harder and harder to remember why he has been repressing his desires - especially when he is around his best friend, John Watson.
The past is a dark and melancholy place, and neither Holmes wants to return there - so it's time now to push forward, and take a chance on something brighter.
