recently i reread a bunch of my favorite sherlock holmes stories (norw my beloved) and felt compelled to create my own diagram for 221B

@birdclowns demanded more trans!Holmes. Speedy WIP since the power is out and laptop battery is close to death. Might do some more on this later.

A scene redraw from Study in Scarlet where Sherlock engages in his iconic thinking stance - with his head and eyebrows sunken down.

I try to mix in a bit of the Frogwares Sherry (as I think they did an amazing job) while keeping his book-described looks because he is a handsome young man without fitting into the internet's "beauty standard" that I feel was implied into his latest in-game model. 🌺

Here, though the world explode, these two survive,

And it is always eighteen ninety-five.

Letters to Juliet but make it letters to Holmes. When I went to Baker Street, the museum there boasted a vast collection of handwritten letters from people all over the world, of all ages from children to seniors, men and women, from as early as the 1800s all the way to 2020 who wrote to Holmes and Watson with their problems, as they believed the consulting detective and the good doctor still live in 221b.

Holmes has been asked for help with cases from trivialities of one's lives to international incidents. The governmental address holder received so many letters that they decided to hire a secretary to reply to these letters for almost more than 100 years now. ''Mr. Holmes has been asked to help with Watergate and Irangate, to solve the murder of Olaf Palme, the Swedish Prime Minister, and find lost homework to prove to the teacher that the student really did it,” Holmes’s secretary Nikki Caparn told The New York Times in 1989. 

They say a fictional character is only as real as those who believe them to be. Holmes is a centurion enigma, a man who never lives yet is never outlived. With every letter written to him, every story of his a child discover, every actor's new interpretation of him, every rewriting of his life, he is reborn.

Sherlock Holmes is one of the oldest characters mankind has known that has constantly graced our books, tv, the big screen continuously for more than 100 years. Research shows that his character has been so constantly redeveloped that the 'true' Sherlock Holmes, no longer exist. He is, whoever you want him to be in your head, the greatest mind of his era, the drug addict, the good doctor's friend, the cold-hearted bastard, the deer-stalker detective, or any stranger you pass on the street. But who's to say that what's in our heads isn't real?

Our consulting detective knows no one yet is known by everyone. Through centuries, through time, he lives on and on and on...

My friend drove thru town with her baby and, more importantly, the baby Dracula book I had sent to her and it’s more hilarious than I could have imagined

There’s also a page where Jonathan is like “no wonder he wants to buy a new house!” When he sees the castle

In this house we bite and run

“No biting!” The theme here is that Dracula is a recalcitrant toddler. With a stuffed dragon

“That night, everyone slept very well.”

Perfection. Zero notes. I can’t believe I can send this to a baby and no one can stop me. Sorry, your baby is a new hilarious flavor of Dracula nerd now

if Sherlock Holmes was a tumblr user he’d be like prev reblog I noticed you tagged this gifset of Ryan Gosling in the Barbie movie trailer with “I want to *** *** *****” which you likely wanted us to interpret with a vague sexual meaning however three weeks ago you posted that you were researching Greek myths for fun and ever since then you have “coincidentally” used prometheus as a topic in several of your funnyguy posts that only got 200 notes and coupled with your love of birds I can only assume that your tag actually meant “eat his liver” and that you’re deep in some sort of Prometheus hyperfixation that you’re coy about for some reason probably because it’s so weird. and then everyone on here would get all scared because of him
