The Emotional Children

by MissHolmesOfGondor

Sherlock rescues Irene Adler from the hands of terrorists in Karachi, Pakistan: setting her free and securing a place in his heart for her. But after the said events at the conclusion of A Scandal in Belgravia, so much remains undisclosed about their interesting relationship: an adventure in Berlin in the wake of The Reichenbach Fall ties them closer together, prying open their icy hearts once more. But even later still, in the aftermath of The Final Problem, an old enemy returns to seal Sherlock's fate. Will the detective and the woman have the courage to trust one another and risk vulnerability as they join forces in more ways than one?Rated T for bits of sexual discussion and implications, language, and violence. In chapter three, a character recollects the struggle leading up to a rape (I don't write the gory, explicit sexual details of the rape). Post-Pakistan, Post-Reichenbach, Post-S4. Sticks to the canon, with author's own imagined Adlock possibilities. Full of Sherlockian action... :)

The Ties That Bind

by SeaweedWrites

The bulk of this story will take place a few months after “The Final Problem”, but there will be flashbacks to the end of “A Scandal in Belgravia”. Spoiler warning for the whole series.There will be sexual situations (nothing overly graphic), talk about medical procedures that could be considered graphic, and adult language. Please read at your discretion. After the events of Musgrave and Sherrinford, Sherlock Holmes was ready to get back to what he considered a 'normal life'. But when Irene Adler comes back into the picture, bringing a long held secret with her, his world is once again turned upside down. Things may never be 'normal' again.

A Very Different Level

by SorrowsFlower

A series of Adlock drabbles and oneshots. Title taken from Sherlock Holmes' statement to the King of Bohemia in the original Arthur Conan Doyle series: "From what I have seen of the lady, she seems indeed to be on a very different level to your Majesty."CHAPTER 7: SYMPHONY FOR THE DEVIL A grit - the smallest imperfection - in his instrument. But in Stradivarian minds such as theirs, an imperfection is what draws the ear and restores the soul. A master can draw the most beautiful sound from such an imperfection.CHAPTER 8: CHEMICAL DEFECT "Sentiment is a chemical defect found in the losing side." Much like the drug oozing insidiously through his veinsCHAPTER 9: RAIN She is beautiful in the rain.CHAPTER 10: CRYBABY Like mother, like daughter.CHAPTER 11: SENSE MEMORY: It was pure self-gratification, like plunging a syringe into his arm, giving in temporarily to ease the persistent craving for HER - her cunning mind, her soul of zest and steel, even her decadent flesh – living under his skin, invading his mind at the worst times.

Staying Alive

by g_girl143

Note: This is just a scenario I pictured in my head on how Irene can be reintroduced into the series. Written more for humor. For my more serious work, please check out my other Adlock fic "Her Chemical Defect", which is a retelling of ASiB from Irene Adler's point of view.

The Smitten Detective IE

by Gaffat

A very long time ago John Watson realized that not everything of consequence that occurred in the life of Sherlock Holmes was fit for immediate public consumption - but that has never stopped him from writing about it. Post Series 4. An outside perspective on Sherlock and Irene's 'interesting' relationship dynamic. No angst. Rated T for language and dirty insinuations.
