Title: He’s Not Paid Enough to Deal with This Shit

Author: janonny

Canon: Sherlock BBC

Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson

Rating: Teen [PG]

Word Count: 9,828

Summary: One of the first things John did was to write up step-by-step instructions on how to conduct a proper job interview before handing it over to Mycroft for his perusal. There were no kidnapping, deserted car parks or stolen therapy notes anywhere on that list. (Or the one where John returned from the war and ended up working for Mycroft as his personal assistant slash doctor on retainer. Everything was fine, until he was sent to post bail for one Sherlock Holmes.)

Recommendation: John makes a terrific PA for a shady ‘government official’ and I love that Sherlock immediately starts trying to poach him from Mycroft. John is BAMF, and Anthea is awesome, and the Brothers Holmes should thank their lucky stars.
