John: Truth or dare?
Sherlock: Truth.
John: How many hours of sleep have you gotten in the past week?
Sherlock: Dare.
John: Go to sleep.
Sherlock: I don't think I like this game.
one of holmes and watson's love languages is lighting each other's cigarettes. our victorian husbands will use any excuse to touch each other's hands inside or outside 221b 😌
"'l'homme c'est rien. l'oeuvre c'est tout" translated to english is "the man is nothing. the work is everything." this is so true for holmes in many aspects of his life, but there is and always will be one man who is everything to him
John Watson’s bedroom at the official Baker Street museum notably contains: a desk, a toilet, a bust of Sherlock Holmes, a single chair (chained to the wall??)

John convinced me, or rather pestered me, to join this social media website. He told me that the listeners of his podcast want to see me here. One listener has been particularly persistent. I think John called them something along the lines of a chaotic frying pan. Whatever that means.
So here I am. Don't make me regret this.
Can we sometimes just take a step back and remember that John never learned what happened on the roof of Bart‘s and why exactly did Sherlock jump and who he jumped for and the snipers and Sherlock‘s tears and the two years of impossible work and the Johnlessness and Serbia and the scars and Sherlock.
John never learned about any of these things. He thought Sherlock left him for a little bit of adventure after stepping off a roof right in front of his eyes, he thought Sherlock enjoyed his little joke of playing dead, he thought Sherlock never trusted him, he thought he has never been important to Sherlock after all.
Even though he has no right to land those blows and kicks on Sherlock, he still has the right to be angry and remain angry.
Remember, unlike us, John has never learned about these things.
Then there are people who take those bullet hole decals that gun people put on their trucks and use them to make gay nineteenth century literature references on their living room walls.
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. 🌺
