I wouldn’t mind any of the following kinks: I would prefer plot to porn, but if an author finds himself or herself compelled, I don't mind incest, sex without condoms, sex toys/object insertion

Please include further details about what you’d like to receive: Sherlock/John (or Holmes/Watson) is my preferred pairing. Two of my biggest fic weaknesses are misunderstandings and break ups/reunions. I have no preference as to whether or not the author should incorporate the events of TRF, but I’d love a happy/hopeful ending. I love a Sherlock who is strange and characteristically socially tone-deaf, and a John who likes him that way and has an issue or two of his own. Realistic and/or complicated portrayals of issues pertaining to sexuality are always a plus, though I don't need some kind of "oh no, am I gay?" angst bomb where that's the only subject on offer. I’m not one for asexuality or platonic romance fics. In the trigger/kinks corner, I would rather not see alpha/omega dynamics, vampires or werewolves, mpreg, heavy torture, blood/knife play, BDSM, non-con/dub-con, scat, or bestiality. Also, character bashing, especially of Sally, makes me very, very sad.

Special requests: I specialize in flangst, and I’m not sure I’m up for heavy angst this time around. I would love to do some light angst with happy ending, or minor hurt/copious comfort. If I get an incest pairing, however, I might be unable to resist going heavy with the angst and doom. Very long or specific prompts result in badfic from me, so I'd prefer broader or more open requests. I would prefer to be matched with someone who would like more plot than porn.
