1. What of the Impala was acctually a broken TARDIS? And the Doctor needs it for parts, but he cant find it, because of some cloaking thingy on it. So he hires Sherlock and John to look for it, and then...stuff happens. Hadn't really thought that far yet. Destiel and Sherlock/John, however you want it.
2. John came across a lot of stuff in Afghanistan. Djinni's, vengeful spirits, demons,-- you name it, he's seen in. So he's one of the most offensive field practiced Hunters in all of London, instead of the more typical London hunters who can only really exorcise haunted stuff. Stands to reason that the Winchester slcome to him for advice while in London themselves. But neither of them have really ever dealt with aliens before... Destiel and Sherlock/John, however you want it

Victorian era Sherlock AU where Sherlock and John are the original Holmes and Watson, The Doctor (10) gets stranded in Victorian London because of a strange time-space anomaly, Sam and Dean are transported there by Castiel to search for a timetraveling monster. They're all investigating the same thing and happen to bump into eachother. Madness ensues.
(You could totally throw some Victorian Torchwood in there if you feel like it)
Any pairings or Gen.

It seems almost impossible that John and Sherlock will ever meet up now, but Destiny and Fate have much bigger plans for those two, and sometimes Soul Mates no matter what changes they have made to the Grand Plan will always meet half-way to each other.
How is that for a prompt? :)

Eh, pretty crappy, but I wanted to contribute in some way.

First the good guys,
The doctor pulls canton out of his time and puts him in London to investigate the resurgence of the silence. He quickly teams up with Lestrade (and falls in love.) and they work together with Sherlock. Once they find out why The Silence are in London they call team free will to help with the supernatural elements of it.
Okay and now the evil peoples
Lucifer brings Moriarty back from the dead (or just enlists him if this is Pre-Reichenbach) to help him distract the good guys from Lucifer’s evil plot (starting the apocalypse or something similar), by using the silence as puppets to cause chaos around London.
I really want Canton and Lestrade to end as a couple. I freaking love the idea of them and as far as I know there is no known story with them. I'll come up with other plot stuff if you want more. Just ask!

Building from Sherlock's speech/comment near the end of The Reichenbach Falls- "Oh, I may be on the side of the angels...but don't think for one second that I am one of them."
John taught Sherlock how to Hunt, not thinking that he would eventually end up being possessed by one of the things that they've been trying to prevent London from succumbing to. But there's something else going on that both of them have missed, because after all, who believes in aliens, especially ones that can wipe themselves from your mind?
Preferably John/Sherlock, Eleven, and Crowley (because you know some poor British sot has been playing dice with him)/Bobby...but anything goes.

Sure enough, Sherlock is a demon, though one who cares not for the dealings of Hell. All he wants is the attention he's getting
Sam isn't the only one who's noticed the noise, though. Hell has noticed how many people read of Sherlock's adventures. Seeing those people as followers that could be a threat, other demons are working (possibly with Moriarty) to take him down.
Of course, God forbid there be an attack on England without the Doctor popping by to see what's going on.
So. The Winchesters, Demon!Sherlock and John, and the Doctor looking to survive the reawakened forces of hell and each other. What could go wrong?
Taking place in 2012, so season 7!Winchesters (though I could also see season 2, 2012 has all the show timelines matching up nicely) and Eleven. Preferred pairings are Wincest, John/Sherlock, and Dean/actually getting some pie, but really all I'm hoping for is some epic antics and debate as to demon morality.

The Short Version:
Amy gets stuck traveling through the history of 221 Baker Street, needs the help of Sherlock and the Winchesters to get back to the Doctor.
The Long Version:
Amy, Rory and the eleventh Doctor investigate something wonky in 221 Baker Street sometime ~50 years in Sherlock's future. Something even more wonky happens, and as Amy tries to enter the TARDIS, she finds herself way back in ~1900, right after the building was constructed. People can see her, touch her, hear her, otherwise interact with her, but when she leaves the building, she finds herself back in the Future where her boys are. This happens a couple of times - every time she tries to leave the building, she ends up either a little farther forward in the past than she last was, or back in the Future as though no time has passed at all.
People in the past have started to call her the Ghost of (221) Baker Street, which is a little flustering for the owner of 221, Mr. Hudson, particularly as he's trying to court the future Mrs. Hudson (Elaine) at that time. He can never predict when Amy will pop in (it could be anywhere from days to years apart), so he doesn't know if he even wants to tell Elaine. She finds out anyway, and Amy and Elaine get on famously.
Amy pops back into the Future and back a couple more times (she will sometimes stay in the past for a couple days at a time), and then the Doctor finally says "Next time you go back, leave some sort of sign so we can figure out when you are, and we'll pop back and pick you up that way." So Amy goes back, leaves a message somewhere in the building, and then waits. And waits. And waits for another week. And then tries to pop back to the Future so she can harass them for being late -
- and finds herself only a couple of years forward, and suddenly truly a ghost. No one can see her anymore, or hear or touch. She's become completely intangible, she can't get back to the Future, and the Doctor hasn't come yet. Now whenever she leaves the building, she goes forward only a little, as if she's skipping the Future bit.
So Amy haunts Baker Street a couple of days or hours or weeks at a time slowly throughout the building's lifetime, and watches the Hudson's marriage slowly dissolve as Mr Hudson delights over her absence and Mrs Hudson frets. Eventually, it gets to the point where Mr Hudson finds himself accused of murder in Florida, and Elaine enlists Sherlock Holmes to make sure the charges stick.
While in America, Sherlock encounters the Winchesters for the first time.
Finally, probably sometime during the Sherlock series 1-2 hiatus, Amy (who has only seen Sherlock and John once or twice before) becomes suddenly tangible again, and Elaine demands Sherlock help her find a way to get home. Having investigated thoroughly and found no scientific way to send her back to her proper time, Sherlock remembers and brings in the Winchesters, to see if they have some supernatural method to banish the Ghost of Baker Street.
The Mechanics:
Amy cannot leave 221 Baker
-she can go anywhere inside the building: Flats (A,) B, C, and Mrs. Hudson’s suite.
Anytime she leaves the building, she time-travels (front door, window, roof, breaking through the walls to 220 Baker, etc [if she’s in the Future, same applies if she tries to enter the TARDIS])
-forwards or backwards depending on when she is
-if she’s in the past, she travels to the Future, where the Doctor, Rory, and the TARDIS are
-(~2060)
-if she’s in the Future, she travels back to a little ahead of when she was the last time
-(a few hours, days, months, years)
EX: June 6, 1940 -> Future -> July 7, 1940 -> Future -> August 12, 1943, 08:41 -> Future -> August 12, 1943, 15:12
(when things go wrong, it's essentially the same, except take out all the Future bits)

The first thing they really can't argue with is John's limp. PTSD injuries tend to get worse, not better, under stress as a way of self-protection through danger avoidance. But his problems get better under stress, which is what happens with a moderate-level curse injury as stress activates higher-than-usual levels of personal resources for survival, exceeding what the curse can impair.
Sherlock is gradually freaking out more and more as things that are less logically acceptable fall into their lives. John is more pragmatic; to him, the mystical stuff is just another set of information, and he'll use whatever works.
Then Lestrade calls Sherlock with a murder case that has hints of something mystical. Sherlock is trying to avoid or cover up the weird stuff. John is starting to suspect that Moriarty is running a campaign to drive Sherlock absolutely spare. Then Donovan finds out about their sudden interest in matters mystical, and everything goes completely to hell.
Set between seasons 1 & 2 because I've seen 1 but not 2. It will mix with either Supernatural or Dr. Who (or plenty of other series).

What if every time someone says Moriarty wasn't real, Sherlock fades away, because, in the end, we're all stories.
Everyone things Sherlock fading away is like something similar to Hell House, but, in fact, it's because of a mysterious crack that's been following him around for far too long...

The Impala turns out to be a TARDIS in disguise when the Doctor finds it and recognizes Time Lord traces in it. When the Impala is "woken" the Doctor and Sam and Dean end up in Sherlock and John's flat.

Villains from all three shows meeting, maybe teaming up, maybe fighting eachother.
Do they have some shared goal so they decide to work together, maybe they end up backstabbing each other over the course of the story?
Moriarty, the Master, Crowley? Or maybe Lucifer? Or what about all the different aliens and demons and dangerous monsters?
If they managed to work together, would the good guys stand a chance? And what is it like being a 'bad guy'? Why do you do the things you do?
What do you think about the heroes, are they just annoyances that tries to ruin everything, or they fun toys to play with, or maybe you really like them?
Very vague, I know, but I'm not really a writer, I just got this idea, and maybe someone else can get inspired by it.

"I've been sending out a message, a distress call. Outside the bubble of our time, the universe is still turning, and I've sent a message everywhere, to the future and the past, the beginning and the end of everything. 'Sherlock Holmes is dying, please, please help'."
"John, John, this is ridiculous. That would mean nothing to anyone, it's insane. Worse, it's stupid! You embarrass me."
"Those reports of the sun spots and the solar flares. They're wrong, there aren't any. It's not the sun, it's you, the sky is full of a million, million voices, saying yes, of course we'll help. You've touched so many lives, saved so many people. Did you think, when your time came, you'd really have to do more than just ask? You've decided that the universe is better off without you, but the universe doesn't agree."
"John, no-one can help me. A fixed point has been altered, time is disintegrating."
"I can't let you die."
"But I have to die."
"Shut up! I can't let you die without knowing you are loved by so many, and so much. And by no-one more than me."
Sherlock is going to jump from the roof of St. Bard's when John arrives and pulls him away from the edge. Time goes wobbly and the Doctor shows up (Amy, Rory, River in tow, if you are so inclined) to tell them that Sherlock is going to have to die for time to be set straight. John (possibly guided by River) works out a plan to save Sherlock and sends out the signal. Sam, Dean, Bobby, and Castiel respond to said signal. Up to you whether they save Sherlock.

Dick Roman's sphere of influence has stretched alarmingly across the world, but this has also brought him to the attention of the Holmes boys in London, and of a certain timelord, meaning the Winchesters are no longer alone in their fight. The Leviathans however, do not intend to let our heroes work against them unhindered, and decide to kidnap someone important to each hero, both in order to distract them and, when they find their friends again, to trap them.
The fun part of this prompt would be to have, say, John, Sam and one of the Doctor's companions held captive by Dick, and to have them working together to get the Leviathans from the inside (of some stronghold or other), while Dean, Sherlock and the Doctor (and more?) are on the outside trying to find them. Castiel can be thrown in as a wild card, as can villains like Crowley and Moriarty, whom I'm sure would no more like the world to be ruled by Dick than our heroes do.
It's a bit late to make prompts, I realise, but it's not like our SuperWhoLock adventure ends after the big bang. :P
