Gaslight snarkage. :D

Subversion of existing tropes.

John behaving more like a dude and Sherlock behaving more like a jerk than is standard fare in fan fiction.

Gratuitous links to OS.

Also, manly brow smooches.

Snark and humour :P

Good dialogue (sometimes of the blog variety).
Humor.
Literary references.
Poignancy.

Love the Hitchcock quote, by the way!

Strict adherence to canon. (You will likely be 'jossed', m'dear!)
Sherlock snark almost to the point of being too mean. (Yeah, but we like it that way!)
Grammatical correctness. (It's an occupational hazard!)
Girly, fluffy, angsty, hurtsy-comfortsy...
Above par for everything, some of it SHEER BRILLIANCE

Witty dialogue, spot on characterization, and a full awareness of the worlds you choose to write in, which makes it all so outstanding. :)

Humour! Sometimes light, sometimes pretty cracked, but humour. Your fic makes me smile. :oD
