A/N: And the winner is ::drumroll:: Silverfox! I guess folks wanted to know what happened after I blew up Doc. *evil laughter* Ahem. Now where did that come from?


( It felt good to have solid metal under his feet again... )

Rating: G
Length: 873
Universe: BBC
Genre: Slash, Gen
Warning: I'm totally punchy by now. The fics. They are mad. Mad, I say!
Summary: John can't sleep. Ford doesn't sleep. Sherlock is asleep.
Date: 3-4 August 2015
AP8: A Haunted Man. Someone's trying to frighten Watson. Whether it's someone trying to make him doubt himself and cleverly leaving little evidence, or just jumping out and saying "Boo!" is up to you - as is why.
A/N: I didn't include any Sherrinford fics in my 5 + 5 = 1 poll. This fic is for the people on that thread who said they wanted to see more of him.
A/N2: Follows Annual Observances, but stands alone.


( Sherlock had gone to bed, but John was too restless for sleep. )

Summary: A card, a club, and questions
Date: 3 August 2015
AP7: Article Prompt: Calling Cards
A/N: BWAHAHAHA. It's a thing. Dr. Bernard Leach, on the other hand, is entirely fictitious.


( John wasn't in the habit of going through Sherlock's pockets. )

Yeah, okay. Technically two of these aren't "Watson-centric", but they were all written for JWP so I figure they count. If there's something else you desperate want to see continued that isn't on the list, please leave it in the comments. Thanks!

Poll will be open until 8:00pm PDT 7 August.

Length: 221B
Universe: BBC
Summary: Oleaginousness testing continues.
Date: 2 August 2015
AP3: Dubious Chemistry. Holmes has created a new solution with his chemistry experiments and Watson accidentally gets dosed, with hilarious results.

A Personal Request
By MonkeyBard
Rating: PG
Length: 100
Universe: BBC
Genre: Slash, Fluff
Summary: Sherlock asks. John eventually obliges.
Date: 31 July 2015
JWP #31: Putting on a Show. Canon is full of colourful characters, and we all know Holmes loves an audience for his deductions. Whether it's a grand gesture, breaking the fourth wall, or just the conclusion of a case in front of a crowd, make an audience part of today's entry.


( "Absolutely not." )

Summary: He's gotten used to sharing a bed.

Getting to Know You
By MonkeyBard
Rating: G
Length: 1907
Universe: BBC
Genres: Gen; Slash
Summary: John hangs out with a new friend.
Date: 27 July 2015
JWP #27: "Aside from yourself, I have none." Sherlock Holmes is supposed to be the anti-social one with Watson as his only friend. But who are Watson's friends outside of Sherlock Holmes?
A/N: This is awfully long considering there's no plot, but some days are like that. More notes at the end.


( Given the choice, John would have gone with Sherlock. )

A/N2: RiffTrax is a thing. A thing of genius. Which is to be expected because, hello, it's the MST3K guys. www.rifftrax.com I recommend going there and giving them your money for their product. They deserve it. Also, John's been a fan of MST3K in my version of things since Sherlock dragged him into a marathon during A Misty London Sunday.
A/N3: If you don't know Oscar, you can meet him in last year's JWP fic Soldier's Dance, and again in this year's Déjà Vu All Over Again.

Date: 26 July 2015
JWP #26: The One You Were Expecting: Everyone expects certain kinds of prompts in JWP. Today's prompt is exactly that: the one you personally had expected to see by now, but haven't. Whether that's a 221B challenge, a woeful injury, or a cracktastic combination - well, it's whatever you expected from JWP!
A/N: I expected a Whump-a-Watson prompt by now, so I guess that means I'm going to be writing whump today. Wish Watson luck. He's going to need it.


( Lestrade hauled his tired brain into wakefulness... )
