Reccer's comments: I love a good threesome involving Sherlock/John/Lestrade in the BBC fandom and whilst pwp stories between them are fun, I think there’s an art to get the interactions and relationship balances right between each character. Adding Lestrade between Sherlock and John is complicated because of his hinted past with Sherlock and his few on screen appearances with John. Jain hits it straight on the head with this fic which is a series of realistic vignettes put together of how the three of them manage their everyday lives with the added complexity of a sexual relationship and how they develop because of it. It has stayed with me.
