Title: Stranger Than Kindness
Recipient: periferal/grossferatu
Author: REDACTED
Verse: Sherlock Holmes & the Servants of Hell - Paul Kane
Characters/Pairings: Holmes/Watson, past Watson/Mary, implied past queerplatonic Holmes/Moriarty
Rating: M
Warnings: BDSM, angst, aging, aftermath of trauma
Summary: After the events of Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell, is there even enough left of Holmes and Watson to live out their remaining years in relative bliss? Yes, in a certain strange way.

Note: Sherlock Holmes & the Servants of Hell is a crossover with Clive Barker's Hellraiser universe, written by an editor and horror historian who specializes in it (and blurbed by Barker himself)
