Protective Watson

[chaos-walking.livejournal.com]

Okay, so, I'm looking for both a specific BBC fic and any recs you might have.

The only thing that I really remember about this specific fic is John becoming fed up with Sally and Anderson's constant sniping and laying into them like the tiny bamf he is on Sherlock's behalf. Cue awkward gratitude and domestic schmoop. If any of you know what fic I'm talking about based on this ridiculously limited information, I'd be very grateful.

Okay, that said, searching for this fic has sort of activated my protective!Watson kink. Where's the good stuff you guys? It doesn't matter what flavor of protective, be it emotionally, physically, or saving Sherlock from himself, I'd like to see Watson protecting Holmes. Pretty please? Any verse will do, but I prefer BBC and canon.

I don't know if this is the one you're looking for, but argyle4eva's Being Sherlock series (http://archiveofourown.org/series/4445) features protective!werewolf! John, most obviously in the second story, Sherlock's Warg. If that one isn't the one you're looking for, it should fill the protective category you're more broadly seeking.

Well, it's a WIP, but I like this one: http://winterssolace.tolkienfanart.com/?p=90

And you might try looking through the things at mere_appendix since that's a Sherlock whump comm.

Your fic search made me think of both Verityburns's The Road Less Traveled (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6298052/1/The_Road_Less_Traveled) and Jennistar1's The 3 stages of friendship (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6228624/1/The_3_Stages_of_Friendship) :) if it isn't either of these I hope you'll enjoy the protective!John all the same. Actually I recommand all fics from those authors ^^
