Hey! So you want to hear me and @calipsan talk about unreliable narrators in the works of Anne Rice and Arthur Conon Doyle for an hour on a panel while discussing the AMC show as the textbook example?
Then check out our panel at 221B Con 2024 all about The Vampire Chronicles, AMC's Interview with a Vampire, and Sherlock Holmes.

Li'l Mystrade at 221B Con, Part 2
"Floor bacon?" Mycroft says, sarcasm dripping from his tone.
"'s a tradition, love. Part of the con lore."
"There's nowhere better to eat than food from a TRUCK?"
"The füd truck is another tradition."
"That's not how umlauts work, Gregory."
"Dark, quiet, and a cocktail. This is much more my speed."
"I know, love. We all need time to decompress. But we've got one more activity, and I think you'll like this one."
"Thank you, Gregory. And for letting me lead."
The next morning...
"I brought you tea."
"There are too many people out there."
"Should I leave you alone?"
"You're not people, my dear."
"You were right, Gregory, tea made it better."
"Why does this con have a thing with dinosaurs?!?!"
"Knew that brolly would come in handy."
"I will never understand the fascination some people have with my brother."
"Aww, you miss him, dontcha?"
"... Perhaps."
And with that, Li'l Mystrade bid farewell to 221B Con for another year.

Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Sherlock (TV)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson
Additional Tags: Humor, Case Fic, maybe? - Freeform, a slice of a case fic
Summary:
“This has gone pear-shaped.”
“Yeah, no kidding.” John Watson looked over his shoulder. “Where are the pigeons?”
Note: Another fic from 221B Con. Which was the first one, actually, only the second one was easier to type up on no sleep so that came first. Before this. Posting-wise. The prompts for this were angler fish, in a box, in the lab, pears, and “where are the pigeons?”.
Also, on that day I learned that angler fish can be uncomfortably large. Uncomfortably for me, I mean. The fish are probably fine with it.

Some WIP pics of my latest cosplay. It’s got to be ready for 221B Con next week so I’m truly in panic/crunch mode to finish them up.
The mask is carved and shaped leather. I love working with leather, but it is very hard on my hands so I rarely do it anymore and keep to simpler designs. I can see through the eyes since they are clear plastic with car window tint applied. It’s like wearing sunglasses!
For Delloso de la Rue’s red gown I started with a hoop I built years ago, and then tackled the petticoat, I kinda wanted a fluffy organza petti, but not quite the same shape as Cinderella, so it would be a bit more bell shaped, at least that’s the hope!
Ferb, one of my cats, has been a huge help through this entire process, and is going to miss his hiding spot when it comes off the dress form.
Then come the giant skirt petals, which I added rhinestones to, because.. why not??? I had a LOT of crystals from a pre-pandemic cosplay that didn’t happen and so they went here.
Now to finish the bodice, wings and wig/hat???

Li'l Mystrade at 221B Con
"I do not understand, Gregory, why they would have a panel titled 'The DI and the British Government' and not invite us to be on it."
"Would you have really wanted to take public questions about our relationship, Myc?"
"Look! That nice @beltainefaerie made me a felt bee pin!"
"Don't go native, Gregory. We must maintain decorum."
"Aw, the con-goers are great, interesting people. Lots to talk about with them."
"I need a drink for this."
"Don't you want to try one of the special cocktails, Myc?"
"I think we're better off sticking with old favourites. Another G&T please."
The next morning.... breakfast in bed.
"Gregory, there are more papers you could read."
"It's more fun to share, love."
"If you must. Don't get doughnut sprinkles on my shoulder."
