Summary
“I’m not gay,” John said into the darkness.
Sherlock rolled over, facing away from him. The skin of his cleft slid uncomfortably against itself as he moved, the lubricant becoming tacky as it began to dry. He re-adjusted the pillow under his head. “I know.”- Language:

Summary
TOG2 spoilers (sort of) — What started as a missing scene turned into a slightly AU deep-dive, because Joe needed more angst and I couldn’t say no.
Set near the beginning of the film, around the car scene — vague enough not to spoil anything majorBookmarked by Unstoppabletogether

Summary
Yusuf and Nicolo have settled into a friendship of sorts, traveling and working together instead of trying to kill one another. So when Nicolo is captured, Yusuf feels honor bound to rescue him.

Summary
Nicolo Genova, or Nicky to his American friends, is just trying to get through his PhD program. He's writing his dissertation on Post-classical homoerotic poetry, but he cannot find anyone who speaks an extinct dialect of Arabic so he can translate a famed love poem by a little known poet, al-Kaysani.
Strangely enough, his friend knows a professor on campus who can translate the poem. What starts as a simple request for assistance on his dissertation blossoms into something that Nicky -- shy, reserved Nicky who abandoned his plans for the priesthood months before ordination -- had never imagined for himself: true love.
What he doesn't know is that Dr. Joseph Jones (his handsome, erudite, kind, lovely Joe) is harboring a secret too large for anyone to believe -- and that secret might just cost them everything.

Summary
Joe could feel his hands still shaking with rage. As they’d hurried towards the prison cell they knew contained Nicky, the narrow corridors echoed near inhuman screams. He could hear them still, ringing in his ears. Could hear Nicky begging for them to kill him in every language he knew. By the time they’d gotten to him he’d been dying, but still able to scream until a sledgehammer smashed into his ribs, after which he’d gone finally, mercifully silent.
Written for the Bad Things Happen Bingo prompt "lost their voice from screaming".

Summary
Their bodies are riddled with bullets, stretched out prone on a floor that is glossy and slick with blood. Nicky can hear shells dropping onto the floor, overlaid by the sound of their attackers murmuring to one another. No doubt congratulating one another on a job well done. Nicky wasn’t particularly interested in what they were saying, he was too busy considering the fact that he could hear what they were saying. He should really be dead right now. Like, properly dead. Halfway to healing and regenerating, but still unable to hear and see type dead.
or - nicky dies in south sudan, and wakes up a ghost.

Nicky who is leaning on a cane clutched in his right hand.

Summary
“J-Joe?” Nicky tries, heart pounding in his ears.
Joe’s shaking his head, scrambling backwards and away, looking over Nicky with a wide, disbelieving gaze.
“No, it can’t be. I watched you die. We burned your body, Nicky- what the fuck is going on?” Joe asks, his voice a quiver that cuts to the quick .
Nicky wishes he had an answer."
One universe's Joe lost his Nicky; in the other, Nicky lost his Joe. Now they've been thrown together, and everything is not okay.

Summary
A sense of overwhelming dread and confusion hung in the pit of his gut. He covered Andy’s hand with his own, leaning forward to catch her gaze. Andy finally looked up at him and swore at whatever she saw there.
“You really don’t know,” she said finally.
“Know what? I know that I got blown up yesterday, and that everything hurts. I know you’re acting weird; what I don’t know is where my husband is,” Joe answered, trying to keep his voice even.
“He’s somewhere at the bottom of the ocean,” Andy said with an explosive, shaky breath, “where he’s been for the last few hundred years.”
-
Joe dies on a mission, and wakes up in a different reality. And then he wakes up in another one, and then another, and he really just wants to go home, okay?
