amplificathonTitle: The Phoenix and the Dove
Author: professorfangirl
Fandom: Sherlock BBC
Rating: M for Sherlock/John smut
Length: 15:09
Format: MP3
Summary: “How bright he burns, John thinks, back from the dead. John can’t stop looking at him. He glows with his own impossible aliveness; he is limned in miracle, foxfire of the soul. Beside him John is small, and grey, and soft in his oatmeal jumper. He cannot possibly match this fire; his small self can’t be enough. He is almost invisible next to this great burning bird.”

The challenge: write a fic in an hour, with reference to one Shakespeare quote, with one sex act. The poem is about the Phoenix and the turtle dove, or the marriage of mind and heart, truth and beauty. But which is which?
Reader’s notes: This fic caught my eye when I was searching for post-Reichenbach work. Professorfangirl’s story captures the energy of transformation, light, and love in a lush, intense, yet intimate fashion.
