* Recommended by Polaris, bregalad
* Comments: For all your Holmes/Watson shipping needs. Katie's fics are long, plotty, incredibly detailed and emotionally resonant. She has an excellent knowledge of the canon and the period; several stories deal with canonical incidents - and how they may have occurred differently than Watson chose to record them - and historical events ([httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20121128035119/http://liquidfic.net/fullofgrace.html Full of Grace] deals with Oscar Wilde's imprisonment; [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20100511215839/http://liquidfic.net/presburyletters.html The Presbury Letters] with [[World War I]]). My personal favorite is [https://web.archive.org/web/20090812224720/http://www.liquidfic.net/threefavours.html The Three Favors], which deals with Holmes' return to London after Reichenbach.

* Comments: This is also a Holmes/Watson website. It's an old website that was created well before the [[Sherlock Holmes (film)|recent]] [[Sherlock|adaptations]] that boosted the popularity of this pairing, but it's still updated once in a while. The stories, both the ones by the site's owner Miss Roylott and those by other authors, are well-written and enjoyable, with delightful references to the canon.

* Recommended by Lady Nomad
* Comments: Wordybirdy writes the funniest Sherlock Holmes that could be felt like it was canon. She researches Victorian England well and incorporates it into her fics. She writers Holmes/Watson as a couple and as really good friends.
Line 43:
* Comments: This is a wonderful multimedia fic, consisting largely of telegrams exchanged between Holmes and Mycroft during the former's time in hiding after "The Final Problem."
 
''[httphttps://web.archive.org/web/20181031000907/https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6096601/1/ A Study in Rum]'' by Nytd
* Recommended by Belphegor
* Synopsis: One wicked and clever pirate. One singular and brilliant detective. One hundred and fifty years apart. An impossible meeting? Perhaps just improbable... Crossover with Pirates of the Caribbean.
* Comments: Nytd is first and foremost a [[Pirates of the Caribbean]] fanfiction writer, but although this is a crossover, it remains a Holmes story throughout, with Doctor Watson as the narrator from beginning to end. It's fascinating, quite gripping and often funny, and the author has the 'voice' and feel of her characters down pat - no-one is forgotten. A definite must-read.

* Possibly the longest Holmes/Watson slash fic on FF.Net, this 214k+ monster is ''still'' WIP and comes pretty well recommended. It tells a dark story of love between Holmes and Watson, especially in the face of Victorian society and Watson's parental responsibilities, along with several more hypotheses regarding their backgrounds.
