“lol Arthur Conan Doyle clearly didn’t know anything about drugs. Sherlock Holmes did cocaine but it calmed him down. That’s not how cocaine works!”

There are two options: Arthur Conan Doyle had never met someone addicted to cocaine or he met some with ADHD who was addicted to cocaine

Everytime I go into the Zosopp tag, I just see people SCREAMING CRYING SOBBING about the lack of posts IN the Zosopp tag. THE ZOSOPP ECONOMY IS IN SHAMBLES

Uaaaaaah that SCENE in The Musgrave ritual where Watson comes into their room only to find that Holmes is washing up, and then he gets this mischievous little smirk on his face?

Only for it to fade into sadness when he sees the cocaine syringe?

THAT. SCENE.

Does anyone else just occasionally miss the Victorian intimacy of calling someone by their first name?

THE MAN WITH THE TWISTED LIP part one - I really love this story, there are so many interesting parts. Making Isa a woman because it's a gender neutral name and I can do what I want. She and Kate are not legally married, of course, but they had a small ceremony a few years ago, to which Mary was invited, and they live together as companions. CW for drugs as well!

part two to come soon.

ALSO - I'm going to be at Flamecon in NYC on 8/17 and 8/18, table D41, and I will have copies of Watson's Sketchbook vol 1 for sale (I'll put it up for sale online after the con, probably early September). Please please please come talk to me about Sherlock Holmes :)

For years I had gradually weaned him from that drug mania which had threatened once to check his remarkable career.

"The Illustrated Sherlock Holmes Treasury" - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

And today in ‘crazy shit that my dad said out of nowhere’:

“We should get a little Sherlock Holmes baker street Lego set, complete with tiny little syringes for him to do tiny little cocaine injections!”

There is a very specific version of Sherlock Holmes in my head, that I don't think exists in any modern adaptation, just lives rent-free in my head, but I keep thinking about him more and more, so maybe it's time I shared. (This is going to be a messy ramble/stream of consciousness btw. I am not sure if that makes any sense, I just need to push it out of my head. (okay, I warned you.))

I need a modern Holmes who is canonically autistic and ADHD, but high masking and late diagnosed. Perhaps even not diagnosed by the time he meets Watson. Holmes who learned to mask well enough/didn't have symptoms that were considered "typical" in the late 90s/early 2000s when (assuming he'd be in his late 20s/early 30s nowadays) he was a kid, so no one (including him) ever even considered the possibility of him being neurodivergent until John H. Watson M.D. met him.

I need Watson observing Holmes and going from "he's kinda weird isn't he" to "oh so that's that. Yea that tracks". Watson who discovers that Holmes is drugging himself up sometimes, and eventually deicdes to confront him about it, to learn that Sherlock is taking speed to "be able to think better" and things click. Holmes I think would be sceptical at first, but eventually he'd do a research and it'd change his life. Perhaps Watson could even help him find a specialist and get officially diagnosed. Seriously, think about it.

One detail I love in ASIP is that Lestrade works out what Sherlock meant by "pink", and figures out that Sherlock must have found the case and kept it at his flat. Oh, and he even knows how to put some pressure on Sherlock to get him to stop and listen.

I hc that Lestrade confiscated the IDs that Sherlock pickpocketed from him during the drugs bust (but of course not the one that was in Sherlock’s coat).
