So I remembered this fic from the old kinkmeme (sherlockkink). I think it was called The Contract, and it was a multipart but never-finished fill for an arranged marriage prompt. And it may have disappeared forever from the Internet, but on the off chance that it is available somewhere, I really would like to read it again.

It was set in the Victorian era, but with some alternate history things about the British upper classes having developed a sort of institutionalised version of Greek pedagogical eros that combined with really only needing one son to continue the family line and devolved into (often creepy and exploitative) mandatory arranged relationships for younger sons. From what I remember, the author put a lot of thought into how the legal system, courtship traditions, and fashions would work within the society.

And it was super-creepy. Moriarty had not-so-secretly had his eye on Holmes for a few years (long before such attention would be considered appropriate even in-universe) and convinced Holmes's father (who is deathly ill) that the best way to provide for his two sons is for him to designate in his will that Sherlock be married to Moriarty. The rest of the fic was Holmes, Watson, and Mycroft trying (unsuccessfully, thus far) to contest the legality of the change and Moriarty planning all of the devious things he's going to do once he has Holmes in his clutches.

If anyone remembers it and/or knows if the author ever reposted it somewhere else (or if you are the author and I can persuade you to repost it), that would be much appreciated!!

I'm looking for a short fic I read ages ago, possibly on Cox and Co. Years after Reichenbach, Holmes is approached by a blackmailer who acquired Moriarty's estate at auction. Among Moriarty's mundane academic books, said bad guy finds a love letter from Holmes to Moriarty (the two apparently had an affair while the former was a student). Any help finding this would be greatly appreciated!

Howdy you guys! You all were such a help last time, and I'm sorry to have to pick your brains so soon again, but this one fic has been driving me up the wall. It turns out Holmes and Moriarty were working together the whole time, and Holmes was using his detective persona to warp Watson into his perfect companion/slave. Moriarty and Holmes would have Moran and Watson have sex in front of them, and just when Watson was about to break mentally Moran told him that they both were obviously special to their geniuses because why else would they go through all the trouble?

I'd love to read it again, and I'm curious if there's any other fics where dark!Holmes and Moriarty work together out there?
Thank you all so much!

Greetings!

After reading this unbelievably scorching fill on the kinkmeme (inspired by Orson Welles voiceporn playing Moriarty in the Gielgud radio plays) I am jonesing for more amazing Holmes/Moriarty. WHERE IS IT ALL HIDING? I am sad I am apparently the first person asking for this pairing in this comm. I AM SAD THAT I HAD TO MAKE THE PAIRING TAG. Is there any more out there that you can recommend at all? :(

(edit: actually it looks like I wasn't allowed to make the pairing tag as I am not a modly mod)
