30 day Fanfic meme: Day 22+23

List of questions here.

Day 22. A fic you won't read late at night

Five Times A Character I Love Did Something I Hated by Sirius Black by shaggydogstail (Harry Potter)

Actually, I just, like, don't ever want to read it again.
I am not a big fan of Gintama (mainly because the manga had too much dialogue for me...no I'm serious), but in the first book, the character Shimura Tae said something akin to this: "It's painful to hold onto something like this, but at the same time, it's also painful to throw it away. If it causes pain in any case, I'd rather carry it with me." That pretty much describes my feelings towards Sirius.
With that said, this is my last Harry Potter rec in this meme, I swear. >_>

Day 23. A favourite short fic

You're a Taboo by Wrabbit (Sherlock BBC, Mycroft/Sherlock)

"I don't believe you," John said flatly. "You hate each other."
Sherlock absently plucked out a few bars John didn't recognize. "Despise, really," he said finally.
"Quite." Mycroft sighed and stood up.
