I want to receive: fic
In at least one of the following parts of fandom: BBC series or ACD
For at least one of the following pairings: John/ Sherlock, John/ Lestrade, Sherlock/ Lestrade, Lestrade/ Mycroft
I like stuff in the following categories: Gen, slash; angst, asexuality, AU, explicit sexual content, fluff, hurt/comfort, uni!lock, case fic
I wouldn’t mind any of the following kinks: explicit sexual content, bdsm, bloodplay, sex without condoms, virgin sex

More details: Above all, keep everyone IC, or as close as possible! I love character studies as well as case fics, so I'd love either; I also really enjoy pieces that explore new romantic relationships. Definitely more than fine with asexual relationships. I like angst but prefer happy endings.

Please no dub-con or non-con, and I find eating disorders/ self harm to be triggering, so please try to avoid that. I'm also not a big fan of Mary-bashing; I don't mind her being a "bad" person, but I prefer it to be justified and explored instead of having her be written off. Canon-compliancy isn't necessary, though- if you want to go a totally different direction, feel free!

As far as AUs go, I enjoy alternate meetings, magical realism, and fantasy a lot; historical AUs aren't so much my thing, unless they're WW1 or 2 AUs. Uni!lock is good, but I don't like fics that make Sherlock seem super-inexperienced and uncertain.

Special Requests: Just nothing that requires character-bashing. I'm also not very good at writing explicit sex, so PWP-style fics wouldn't be a good match for me.
