My personal favourite is [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5663110/1/40-things-Sherlock-Holmes-must-not-do a list of things that Sherlock Holmes must never do]], compiled by Irene Adler and Mary Watson. She writes for several fandoms, and her other parody fics are worth checking out, too.

* Synopsis: Described by the author as an exercise in dual pastiche, this crossover begins with Holmes and Watson discovering a door in their [[color:blue:house]] were there wasn't one before. Holmes starts going mad trying to wrap his mind around it. Where does it lead? [[strike:[[color:red: Is there something inside it?]]]] And then ItGetsWorse. It should be noted that this is really not primarily a ship fic, but it contains Holmes/Watson slashiness and one scene of explicit sex.

* Status: Complete
* Synopsis: Life in London can get plenty interesting when Sherlock Holmes is hot on the trail of the dastardly Moriarty. Things take a bizarre turn, however, when Holmes and Watson intervene in a most unusual assassination attempt on a strangely dressed young man.
* Comments: Gets the tone of the original Sherlock Holmes stories spot-on while effortlessly blending in pre-Movie Star Wars-verse elements. The best and truest-to-literary-canon Sherlock Holmes crossover this troper has read since 'A Study in Emerald'. Highly recommended.

* Comments: This whole series of one shots is filled with Crowning Moments of Heartwarming as Jeremy Brett and David Burke interact with their canonical counterparts. It really gives an inspiring idea to how Jeremy was able to act as close to Holmes as he could. And it gives off amazing ideas such as Watson replacing David in the episode "The Solitary Cyclist" because David had the flu. Beautifully written and it's guaranteed to warm the heart of anyone who loves Sherlock Holmes and Jeremy Brett.

It's an old website that was created well before the [[Film/SherlockHolmes recent]] [[{{Series/Sherlock}} adaptations]] that boosted the popularity of this pairing, but it's still updated once in a while. The stories, both the ones by the site's owner Miss Roylott and those by other authors, are well-written and enjoyable, with delightful references to the canon.
