Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

"I have been told that Mister Holmes may consult with the Auror office in the future, and they want him to have ready access to and understanding of our world. If he is as good as I have been led to believe he may be a valuable resource in catching perpetrators of the Dark Arts. We are being asked to do our duty," she said. That got everyone's attention. "And help Mister Holmes have a full understanding of our world."
"When will he observe our classes?" Morgan Burbank asked.
"Over time. He, and John Watson will be here for a month, and I have been told that they was done research on most subjects. I ask that you treat them with respect and offer to them your best resources. At the very worst these men will pose for the students as a formative memory of muggles and how they think of and treat wizards. And how we react to them will also affect how they see muggle-wizard relationships."
Neville nearly groaned. John Watson was a good man, upstanding, strong of will and heart. He was Gryffindor through and through. Sherlock was a Ravenclaw at best, Slytherin at worst, except that Sherlock seemed to have little true ambition except to not be bored. Still, Sherlock was one of the most caustic individuals Neville had ever met. The only people Neville considered more likely to insult students and staff alike were the Carrows. Neville wasn't even sure if Sherlock would have been as back as Snape. Surely Snape couldn't have been as bad as Neville's memories of him. Even still, Neville had trouble not associating Sherlock with Snape, which made their discussions less than comfortable.
And this was the man who would influence how students thought of muggles in the future? Neville wasn't sure that the insights Sherlock could provide to the Auror office would be worth the potential damage to muggle-wizard relations brought on by students exposure to Sherlock Holmes. Worst yet, it was far too late to try and keep him away.
