I’m thousand times sorry for the delay, but I finally did it! This is for you, @the-painter-and-the-poet, via the @sherlocksecretsanta exchange. Hope you like it!
Birthday Movie
Hi! I’m so so so sorry I’m late. So many things happened so I’m just ugh.
Anyway, this is wonder wall for @valdavermillion and @bakersttardis for @winterlock-exchange and @sherlocksecretsanta
I have separate ones for each of you, and though it will be late, I will finish them both up for you. But, I hope you guys like Birthday Movie.
*****
The day was slow and filled with experiments on the table and books in the sitting room. Today was supposed to be different though. It was Sherlock’s birthday.
It was the first one since the boys are baker street became an item. And John wanted to celebrate it, damn it.
John said they could do anything that Sherlock wanted that wasn’t a case. Sherlock, after some complaining, admitted there was a movie he wanted to see.
“Alright,” John stated, “pull it up.” He turned and walked into the kitchen to finish up the tea.
Warm in the blanket, the detective flipped to Netflix and selected The Imitation Game. He quickly paused it before it started. The smell of Earl Grey slipped into the air as John entered the sitting room once more.
After handing Sherlock his cup, he sat on the couch with a nod. John sipped his tea as the screen lit up. Sherlock quietly cuddled into the doctor’s arms
The main character, Alan Turing, appeared a few minutes later. “That bloke is pretty attractive,” John whispered. Sherlock’s hair proofed as his head popped up with a pout.
John let out a little laugh at the sight. “Not as attractive as you, Love,” he said as he kissed his adorably jealous boyfriend, “no one is.”
The pair watched the movie happily through out the night. Once it was over, the older man yawned and began to stand up. The younger man, however, didn’t want to move.
“Mm, John, don’t move,” Sherlock whined. Another laugh echoed from John.
“I’m tired, Sherlock, we have to go to bed,” John told him. A groan came from the ball of blanket and curls. “Come on, up you get, birthday boy.”
After some more convincing and promises of kisses in bed, the couple finally disappeared into their room.
There, now complete!
First of all, a big thank you to everyone who has supported this story. @tjlcblr I hope it was along the lines of what you wanted!
@sherlocksecretsanta thank you for organising this gift exchange
A very happy new year to everyone. Hope 2019 is kind on all of us -and our fandom.

2018 fic year in review: thejohnlockoutlet/AurorFelicis3755
Tagged by the incredible @fellshish <3 I’ve said this a thousand times before but if you haven’t read her fics yet, what are you even doing with your lives. Sort it out. Be good to yourself. Read her fics.
Ok, back to me!
Total number of completed stories: I finished 2 stories this year, with one WIP on hiatus until I have less going on in my life. It seems little, but this year is the first time I ever finished a multi-chapter fic!
Total word count: 12,286 words!
Fandoms written in: All Johnlock, 100%. Oh and I wrote a Harry Potter/Sherlock crossover but I deleted it because it sucked and I only wrote it for a class…
Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you’d expected? More! I started the year in a post-s4 fandom break, but I got right back into the fandom in February and over the summer felt very inspired and had time to plan out a longer piece!
What’s your own favorite story of the year? It would have to be What Do We Say About Coincidence? It’s not finished yet, but by far the most ambitious and well planned thing I’ve attempted to write, and it’s kind of my baby. I can’t wait to work on it some more and get to the end!
Did you take any writing risks this year? Me starting anything more than one chapter carries the risk that I just won’t finish it… so yes! I decided to write a fic for my @sherlocksecretsanta gift, and I actually finished it, even though it was super short!
Do you have any fanfic or profic goals for the new year? I want to finish my WIP fic! That’s the main goal. I’d love to write something else too, but it completely depends on what inspiration strikes!
Best story of the year? I think I’m most pleased with my little one-shot, John’s stag night, but no client interrupts. It’s not that long but it’s pretty hot and I just like the idea of it, I wrote it all in one and I just think it’s pretty neat.
Most popular story of the year? It’s actually the secret santa fic I just finished, Five Times John Took a Taxi and One Time He Decided to Walk. Crazy! It’s only been up a week or so and it’s already had a load of kudos and lovely comments. What a bunch of sweethearts you all are!
Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: all my writing is overappreciated, probably - you guys are way to nice to me!
Most fun story to write: The stag night fic, I think! I wrote it all in one go and it just came easily. I enjoy longer projects but I always have a crisis of confidence somewhere along the line, and that was one I didn’t doubt myself on.
Most unintentionally telling story: I think all of them, in a way… my secret santa fic though was inspired by some real-life feelings, so probably that one.
Biggest disappointment: not having time to write as much as I’d like! But I’m in the final year of my degree and I’m also writing a thesis, so I have to forgive myself, I suppose 😂
Biggest surprise: not strictly speaking fanfic specific, but the biggest surprise this year has been making friends with some great people who helped me to write! Mostly I need the sort of help that’s like, “get off your ass and write something!” So thanks to everyone who’s told me that ;)
Tagging: @sherlockedcarmilla @todaywearesoldiers @thepersianslipper @theconsultinglinguist @hpswl-cumbercookie and anyone else who want to do it!
Hey everyone - happy new year!
We’ve had some really wonderful gifts this year , most of which has been reblogged now. And if you’re running a little bit late, don’t worry too much about it, a few people had written that, and a number of other gift exchanges are still happening over the next few days as well!
If you posted something and haven’t seen it reblogged here, just tag us again or send us a message!
Gift for @tjlcblr for @sherlocksecretsanta
More mess, but I guess optimistic mess? (John is the trashcan we need him to be)
It’s complete!
The boys finally talk to eachother about their feelings. But this is Johnlock, so naturally there’s miscommunication.
Thanks to everyone who has read along, commented, left kudos, or liked, reblogged or commented on tumblr. It’s been great fun to write something short and sweet - which has turned into something a little longer in this chapter. I didn’t want to rush this last, beautiful scene. I hope you enjoy the ending, leave me a comment and let me know what you thought!
@sherlocksecretsanta gift written for @fin-amour. Hope you liked it, happy new year!
Merry Christmas from your Secret Santa – here’s Chapter 1 of 3 of your ACD Johnlock fic.
I do hope you enjoy it!
It is beautiful, and I adore it!!! Thank you so much!!! 😍😍😍😄😄😄
Chapter 5 is up, happy new year!
A late-night ride home from a stake-out shows Sherlock’s softer side.
Written for @sherlocksecretsanta for @fin-amour. Happy 2019!
Things are getting a) more complicated, b) out of control. But they will improve in chapter 3!
