Sherlolly Appreciation Week 2024, Day 3 Trope : Fake Dating Barely proof read this, so sorry for any mistakes lol, enjoy!

“No.”

“Yes.”

“Sherlock, I said no.”

“Molly, you agreed to this.”

She stared at the man sitting across from her, annoyance radiating through her body as she stared at him. She crossed her arms tightly over her chest. “I am not dancing with you.”

Clearing his throat, he stood up and straightened his jacket before walking around the table to extend his hand out to her. “Yes, my dear, you are.” He stared down at her, a mask of control. “Molly,” he dropped to a whisper, “this is the best chance for us to be close to the masterminds…it’s for the case.”

She huffed out a sigh through her nose and dramatically slapped her hand into his, rising to her feet.

“Fine. But only for the case.” She fixed a soft smile on her lips and allowed herself to be led to the hotel dance floor.

“Remember, you’re in love with me,” he whispered, letting his lips graze her ear. “We need people to believe that.”

She shook her head as she gave a disbelieving laugh, her fake smile selling the “love” façade. “You’re ridiculous.”  

“How so?” He kept his voice low and face close to hers, but his eyes remained locked on their targets.

“I told you I was done with this fake relationship stuff for cases…yet here we are.” She knew her anger towards him was only partially justified – she should have backed out as soon as he said the word fiancé – but being angry at him was easier than admitting to herself why she kept saying yes to him.

“You’ve enjoyed helping me with previous cases," he said as he continued to gently move them around the dance area. “I am not sure why this case is any different.”

She shook her head before resting her temple on his shoulder, looking away from him. “You know why,” she muttered, feeling tired.

Sherlock’s swaying stopped for a moment before he started moving again. “I assure you, I do not.”

She pressed her eyes tightly together and took a deep breath. Centering herself, she lifted her head, this time a genuine smile, although sad, sat on her lips. He looked at her, slightly taken a back by the abrupt change in demeaner. “What did you say the masterminds were looking for? Happy couples?”

“Delirious with infatuation and out of touch with reality, specifically,” he responded.

“Well then, happy we shall be.”

...

“My goodness!” The woman slapped the table as she giggled. “You two are just the most delightful creatures! Do you think we’ve met any other couples as delightful, honey?” she asked as she turned to the man on her right.

“No, you are right my dear. These two are some of the best people we’ve yet to meet here.” The couple shared a look that was not missed by Sherlock or Molly. “I say, we would love to have you two join us tomorrow night for a special gathering we are having.” He slid a card across the table to Sherlock. “9pm.”

“We’ll be there!” Sherlock took the card and slipped it into his jacket pocket.

“Sounds lovely!” Molly nodded in agreement.

“Well, looks like we should be turning in.” The man gestured to the clock on the wall. “Honey?” He held his hand out as he stood and she took it.

“Oh, yes.” She smiled brightly at Sherlock and Molly. “I look forward to seeing you both there tomorrow.”

“Wouldn’t miss it!” Molly said, only letting the smile drop from her face after they were out of sight.

“Come on.” Sherlock stood and ushered Molly back to their master suite.

“I think that went well,” Molly said once they were back in the room as she started to take off her heels.

“What did you mean when you said, you know why?” Sherlock’s question caught her off guard and she struggled to not slip as she worked her heels off.

“Sherlock…” she trailed off, not sure what to say as he stared at her. Finally, she shrugged and sat on the end of the bed. “You know, I just had a long week and this case was kind of bad timing.”

“No.”

She gave him a questioning look.

“Last case…I kissed you while we were undercover.” He took a couple of steps closer to her.

“Yes,” she whispered.

“But I’d done that before.”

“Yes.” She shifted uncomfortably on the bed.

“And those didn’t bother you.” He moved so he was standing directly in front of her and she had to tilt her head up to look at him.

“Sherlock?” She was unsure where his line of questioning was going.

“This kiss was different because…” this time he trailed off and she could tell he was replaying that night in his mind.

They had been colleagues turned friends for a long time, but Sherlock didn’t often open up about his private life and on that case he had. She had then shared back and something had shifted between them. And while she had always enjoyed kissing Sherlock, even just for pretend, this kiss felt different. The next week she told him she could no longer be his undercover dating partner.

Dropping to his knees, he took her hands in his. “It was different because…I was different?”

She nodded silently. He opened his mouth to speak but she cut him off. “It wasn’t that you were actually different – you were still Sherlock. But you were Sherlock who let me in…which you so rarely do.”

His eyes flicked to her lips and he hesitated a moment, before leaning in and kissing her. It was soft and gentle but still made her head rush and when he pulled back, she smiled brightly at him. “I’ve always liked kissing you,” he admitted. “When you told me you couldn’t be my undercover dating partner anymore, I am ashamed to admit the disappointment I felt at the idea of no longer having an excuse to kiss you.”

He captured her lips again and kissed her soundly until both their hands were tangled in each other’s hair. Breaking apart, Sherlock slid into the spot on the bed next to her before kissing her again. And again…and again.

When they finally broke apart, Molly spoke, “Maybe we don’t have to pretend to be together anymore.”

There are so many otome games out there (though the ones officially in English can be lacking sometimes), were you looking for a free to play mobile, free to play PC, or games for console and/or PC? Since otome games also are meant for niche audiences, their fandoms tend to be small to begin with…I know that Obey Me is currently popular with a big fandom, you might have heard of it. If you haven’t heard of it, it is fun but the game can’t be considered a traditional otome due to it not actually having any actual romance routes that you can pursue. Tears of Themis is another one with a sizable following (I haven’t played it, so I can’t vouch for it). I think the cybird mobile otome games have decent sized fandoms too? (I haven’t played those either). I’m not sure if they’re still available, or if their fandoms are even active anymore, but the Shall We Date?: Wizardess Heart, Shall We Date?: Guard Me, Sherlock! (there are Easter eggs from this game in Obey Me) and Shall We Date?: Love Tangle are all old classics.

As for PC otomes, I know that Cinderella Phenomenon is pretty popular (it’s free to play, though one of the routes is sus. you’ll know what I mean if you play it). The story for it is really good, in my opinion. For consoles, Code Realize: Guardian of Rebirth is one that’s recommended a lot (very long common route, it also has an anime! Im still playing through my first route). I can’t really recommend any other console ones cuz all the ones I’ve known or played are rated M, sorry 😅 Some people have been suggesting The Arcana, which is an absolute masterpiece of a game, but that isn’t an otome, it’s a just a romance visual novel. Which has mature and suggestive scenes in all the routes at some point. Just so ya know, if you decided to check out The Arcana.

OMG TYSM!!! I've been wanting to get into otome games more<33 This was such a nice reccomendation list

More Fate Grand Order x Obey Me Headcannons

A/N: I’m thinking about this potential crossover fanfic idea again.

Someone needs to check on Goredolf Musik because no amount of Lostbelts/Singularities would prepare him for the demons from the Bible. But honestly there are not many people from Chaldea, apart from Ritsuka whose sanity already hanging by a thread canonically.

On the flip side, I don’t think many people on the Obey Me side is going to get what’s going on either. Except Obey Me Barbatos which is practically his whole known power set

Satan is going to be confused because it’s implied that the setting of Obey Me is in the same world of another Shall We Date game called Guard Me Sherlock. So high chance that Satan may or may not know of Sherlock and Moriarty already. Doesn’t help that Moriarty is an evil grandpa while his Shall We Date counterpart is probably around his mid-20s, early-30s at most.

Speaking of, the two Mephistopheleses may be confusing, but I’m pretty sure that the Fate Mephistopheles will bully the Obey Me Mephistopheles (this is purely off of vibes I have not read Season 4 yet)

There’s definitely a list of Servants who straight up just don’t care about the demon brothers. Based off vibes alone that list at least contains Elisabeth and Gilgamesh. I will think of others later when I got more brain cells to rub.

Not sure if Chaldea will be able to detect the time fuckery that is Nightbringer given what little information we have, but I hope they can.

They missed some real fun with their route by not making them the same person

Hi okay uh so I just driving and started thinking,,,

So if I were to hypothetically write an ambitious Shall we Date Crossover story that requires dimensions and timelines and stuff like that…

Who would be the main characters?

Read more below for clarification ramblings.

Now, I’m not saying,

“Which of your fav SWD characters would you like see go on dimension and timeline adventures uwu?”

I’m asking,

“Which SWD characters would team up and realistically go through dimension and timeline adventures with the skill set they have?”

Like, which of the main boys/side characters/MC’s of the SWD universe would actually go out of their way to go thru these adventures?

Reason for going? Idk I haven’t figured that out yet but then again this is hypothetical—

I mean, the SWD games has made crossovers in the past but apparently not big enough for a big impression? But it’s clear that there seems to be a connection to each game to another.

But anyways, I’m asking this because honestly? Another brain rot lmao. I mean I understand it’s a big thing to ask about because I haven’t played every single SWD to a full extent, but I think I can rely on the dead fandom community for that hehe.

I mean to be clear, I have tried to think of a team while keeping bias out of the way. But all I can think of is Elias from WH and Levi from OM and honestly at that point did I realize that it was starting to look like a Holomyth group lmao.

Will I actually do it? Eh, depends if people are interested in that type of thing. Of course, this would be a group effort because I am just one person who’s played like a small bit of these games lol.

Feel free to give in depth analysis as to why you feel like that certain character could be a potential main character for this type of story!

WHAT

[dapper-shipping-forever]

Anyway, here's the shitty man of the week

[animegenork]

Otometober Day 9

What's your favorite mobile game?

If I could actually play them once in a while, that'd be great. That aside, I enjoy Guard Me, Sherlock! a lot. I had my eye on it for a while, and when I finally got a smartphone, I was able to download it. It's super cute, the music is weirdly catchy, and well. Watson is great.

Mycroft also needs to stop being attractive, pls and thx.

John's pretty green eyes....
