"See here, sir! See what my wife found in its crop!" He held out his hand and displayed upon the centre of the palm a brilliantly scintillating blue stone...of such purity and radiance that it twinkled like an electric point in the dark hollow of his hand.
This print is inspired by the Sherlock Holmes story "The Blue Carbuncle": 'tis the season for wild goose chases, and of course, larceny (if you can bring it off).

john getting sherlock ear defenders that are personalized, both with sherlock’s initials and john being quick to point out the pun it makes is something that can be so so important to me, actually. john is so unbelievably sweet, understanding, and accommodating it’s absolutely wonderful to see. i love this podcast ❤️❤️❤️❤️

when john and sherlock start accidentally but blatantly flirting with each other at the end of the 12th episode and I can sense the faint smell of building up romance:

"Remember, Watson that though we have so homely a thing as a goose at one end of this chain, we have at the other a man who will certainly get seven years' penal servitude unless we can establish his innocence. It is possible that our inquiry may but confirm his guilt but, in any case, we have a line of investigation which has been missed by the police, and which a singular chance has placed in our hands.
I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS
Forget offering to take a case for someone who can’t pay, forget taking a client just as they’re being arrested. Holmes is doing all this without anyone hiring him or even the police offering a consultant’s fee to ask his help. And for a stranger, one he’s never spoken to or even seen, and could very well be guilty! He’s a former convict, after all, and especially in Victorian thought that is a Type of person.
But the possibility that this stranger and former convict may be sentenced for something he didn’t do has Holmes running in circles in the freezing streets of London, chasing down leads. It especially stands out that he doesn’t do it for the curiosity of the mystery, like he loves to talk about so often (see: The Red-Headed League).
Again more lead-up to the story’s conclusion: Holmes is doing this for people, and to make the world a better place, not just for entertainment or to enforce laws or a concept of justice.

gasp! jeremy brett, our champion of the canon, committed an anachronism! presumably from smoking between takes, he left a modern, filtered cigarette in the ashtray. tut, tut, jeremy.

“Then, what clue could you have as to his identity?”
“Only as much as we can deduce.”
“From his hat?”
“Precisely.”
“But you are joking. What can you gather from this old battered felt?”
“Here is my lens. You know my methods. What can you gather yourself as to the individuality of the man who has worn this article?”
- The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle, Arthur Conan Doyle

I’m listening to the Blue Carbuncle radio play right now (BBC, Clive Merrison), and honestly I think my most controversial Sherlock Holmes opinion is that adaptations of this story should just skip the deduction where Holmes decides Henry Baker is an intellectual because the circumference of his head (as measured by his hat) is large and therefore he must be smart.
It’s one of Holmes’s stupider deductions and it comes in the middle of one of the best deduction scenes in the stories. Just leave that one out of the list and that bit is much improved.
