I hate wizards.

No it is not rational. Don’t @ me.

realized a lot of people probably think sherlock holmes is some logical, melancholy, serious guy. like no he's not, he shook hands with a baby and once let a criminal go because it was christmas time

"You have a grand gift for silence, Watson. It makes you quite invaluable as a companion."

I'd be remiss if I didn't do Holmes' husband too. So here's a buncha Watson studies featuring him in various stages of his life.

I was trying to figure out how I wanted to draw him. He was a little harder to figure out compared to Holmes, but I adore Hardwicke and Burke's Watsons so he's mostly based off them!

I tried to strike the balance between reservedness vs. vulnerability and I think I've managed to pin him down!

And since you guys enjoyed the last couple of bonuses, here's another one 😆

The picture that inspired the first one <3

He said he slept at Baker Street, just not how

Excerpt from A Scandal in Bohemia that I couldn't help but to illustrate - I'm an artist, that's what I do.

if you ever feel like you're not getting anywhere romantically just remember that sherlock and watson have been in a situationship since 1887

[anerdynerd]

Do you guys ever just remember that Watson had to fight in the First World War?

I began writing this post before and lost my draft when I went to check how far along “Letters from Watson” is, so here it is without preamble. Lesson learned. 😆 (It appears to be up to The Hound of the Baskervilles at the time of this post.)

If you chose some combination of the short story collections and novels, I’d love to hear which ones in the comments and tags!

Please reblog for a larger sample size. :)

I've just read "The Story of the Man with the Watches", a mystery story by Arthur Conan Doyle. If you're ever mildly convinced the queer undertones in Sherlock Holmes stories are coincidental, I think Doyle clearly had a fascination with different kinds of love

"Then one day he dressed himself as a girl, and carried it off so well, and made himself such a valuable decoy, that it was their favorite game afterwords."

"You lived your brother, I've no doubt, but you didn't love him a cent more than I loved him, though you might say I took a queer way to show it. Anyhow, it seems a mighty empty world now that he is gone."

rip sherlock holmes you would've loved scrolling on social media for hours while your body slowly rots in bed

Fanart from tumblr and fanfic from Ao3 made it into the OFFICIAL exhibition A STUDY IN SCARLET in Portsmouth Museum (UK). Yes, including Johnlock ones.

Next to the script of BBC SHERLOCK. Behind the scenes photos of Jeremy Brett and Alan Rickman, some reviews about ELEMENTARY etc.

Surrounded by the largest collection of Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle in the world. Including the first editions, hand-written notes, countless translations and adaptations (Without a clue, Rathbone, Cushing, Wantor, Gilette, Young Sherlock Holmes, Gene Wilder, The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes…).

We made it.

The early Sherlock Holmes novels are so interesting bc Watson takes an almost antagonistic view to Sherlocks deductive capabilities which results in a "deduce this, asshole" vibe

[mouse-of-mischief]

I woke up early today especially to say/boast this....

Happy birthday to both Sherlock Holmes and me!

I'm immensely happy to have had this wonderful man stay so alive for 171 years, and have thoroughly enjoyed having his stories kept in my heart throughout my whole life.

I didn't think we'd have a third installment on "Man, Sidney Paget had bills due that night" but here we are.

I suppose this is an appreciation post, too?

Around the display we have:

-From A Scandal in Bohemia

-The Dancing Men

-The Dancing Men

-The Resident Patient

I just think they're neat. And of course display quite dynamic moments in one image.
