Fics like To Love Him True

Sherlock Holmes - Potions Experimenter Extraordinaire - combines Amortentia with Veritaserum to help users not only find their true love, but to express that love. In hindsight, maybe he shouldn't have tested it on himself. “Love potions can create the feeling in anyone who takes it. It creates lies. Veritaserum negates lies.” “So you wanted to create a love potion that what? Makes you realize and face the one you love instead of letting you falsely love just anyone?” Sherlock’s head tilts in innocent confusion, asking a question of his own, “What is the point of pretending to love someone that you don’t? When my potion wears off, the truth is still there: that I love you. It isn’t the potion making the feeling, it’s the potion making me face the feeling.” John’s face flushes in embarrassment. So Sherlock does really love him. That’s…a good thing. Great, actually. But a bit of him twinges with sadness that it happened this way.
