Rewatching TGG just now, I was thinking about how difficult it was for them to recreate everything from the pool scene two years later in order to continue the cliffhanger into ASIB.

And I thought... Wouldn't it be funny if they randomly did that again with s5? If they picked up 30 seconds after when s4 ended and had to make everyone look exactly the same...

This poll is asking only about fictional characters, and only ones who are NOT in abusive relationships, NOT in arranged marriages, and who could leave/access divorce if they wanted to.

For the purposes of this poll, "cheating" means having sex with somebody else, in secret, without their partner having agreed to this ahead of time. This is not the only definition of cheating; we're just talking about a situation where what the character does is definitely, obviously cheating.

You may find characters in abusive relationships etc cheating unsympathetic also, but this poll isn’t about that. If a character who cheats can only be sympathetic to you if they’re in an abusive relationship, vote no.

Example of different circumstances that you might find sympathetic or unsympathetic: being young and stupid; exploring their sexuality; sleeping with someone younger and more attractive than their partner; etc.

–

We ask your questions anonymously so you don’t have to! Submissions are open on the 1st and 15th of the month.

BBC Sherlock’s Kinkiest Canon Moments, Part II

Click here for Part I.

12. Culverton Smith smothering Sherlock (breathplay)

SMITH: Maintain eye contact. Please. I like to watch it … happen.

11. Moriarty as the Bride (crossdressing)

10. Sherlock commanding John to fetch his phone (D/s)

SHERLOCK: Pass me my phone. JOHN: Where is it? SHERLOCK: Jacket.

(okay, this is the one where I’m least certain the characters are canonically aware of the kinky implications…  but I love it too much not to include it, sorry!)

9. Culverton Smith and his beloved corpses (necrophilia)

SMITH: This time, knock.

8. Molly’s appearance in the Victorian mindpalace (crossdressing. D/s, daddy kink)

HOOPER: Oh, isn’t he observant now that Daddy’s gone?

7. Irene Adler discusses collaring Sherlock. (D/s)

IRENE: I should have him on a leash – in fact, I might.

(Obviously almost everything Irene does in this episode is explicitly kink-related, but I did try to limit myself…)

Part I.  Part III.

This was my entry for the Molly Hooper Calendar with other Sherlollies, glad to have been a part of it, I was August :D Adjusted the colors a bit in this one. I wish I could have done more with the BG… ah well, time to work on another thing (someday haha)

John and Mary: *thinking they’re gonna have a normal wedding*

Sherlock: Murder :)

Collecting books is great until you have to move all of them at once and realize that every one of the little bastards weigh about as much as a brick and collectively have the mass of a neutron star

So there's gossip about some version of kinktober over on twitter adding a bunch of nonsensical rules this year, and I am fascinated. Studying this like a bug.

Like, what the hell.

BBC Sherlock’s Kinkiest Canon Moments, Part I

formerly known as the top ten kinkiest moments but I got carried away

From a blackmailer who works as a professional dominatrix to a philanthropist with an unwholesome interest in corpses, the BBC-verse delights in hinting toward unconventional sexualities.  But what exactly makes something canonically kinky?  My basic rule was, are the *characters* aware of the erotic implications, within the story?  That still leaves a lot of room for interpretation and debate, but here’s my take.

19. Sherlock goes to Buckingham Palace in the buff.  (Exhibitionism)

PLUMMER: Please, Mr Holmes. Where you’re going, you’ll want to be dressed. SHERLOCK: Oh, I know exactly where I’m going.

18. The uniform fetishist theory. (Uniform fetish/military kink)

SHERLOCK: Uniform fetishist. “All the nice girls like a soldier.”

17. The old man with the dirty DVDs (religion kink)

MR SZIKORA: “The Holy War.” Sounds a bit dry, I know, but there’s a nun with all these holes in her habit. 

16. Janine inquiring about Sherlock’s handcuffs (bondage)

JANINE: Do you always carry handcuffs? SHERLOCK: Down, girl.

15. References to the Holmes family history of crossdressing (crossdressing)

MYCROFT: How very like Uncle Rudy – though, in many ways, cross-dressing would have been a wiser path for you.

(See also: “MYCROFT: He talked me out of Lady Bracknell. This could have been very different.”)

14. Sherlock and John handcuffed together (bondage)

JOHN: Now people will definitely talk.

13. Jim Moriarty playing Daddy (Daddy kink)

JIM: But the flirting’s over, Sherlock… Daddy’s had enough now!

(See also: “Daddy loves me the best!”)

Part II. Part III.

Have you ever wondered who would win if we forced all the popular Sherlock Holmes adaptations to fight each other? Now I shall answer. Based on a poll from my main acct @veryfastnighuncatchable , I have devised this bracket to answer this question once and for all. If you want to vote, follow to follow along on this journey.

There will be a one week period between this post and the beginning of the tournament for people to message me in the ask box about adaptations I have missed that you want to see included. After that, the bracket will be closed.

This is NOT a bracket to determine the "best" Holmes adaptation. Only who would win in a fight. Please vote accordingly.

This account will ONLY post tournament-related information. If you'd like to chat Sherlock Holmes, head on over to my main acct and hit me up.

Each poll will be open for a one week period in order to reach as many fans as possible. A new poll will be up every few days based on the winners of the previous poll. Please reblog and send to your Holmsian friends so that we can reach a large number of fans.

Happy voting! 🔎
