A difficult task part 1

No warnings. Not proofread. I just typed it as the scenes kept playing in my head. I'm not a writer. Sorry. If someone likes it and wants to take off from there or rewrite it, let me know and tag me! I would read it.

It's a normal cloudy cold day in London, John is typing on his laptop their last case, Sherlock is experimenting in the kitchen when Mycroft knocks on the door. Sherlock rolls his eyes knowing it's his brother. He has been sending him messages all week which he keeps ignoring. John opens the door, Mycroft is wearing his usual gray suit, red tie, and he is holding a a blue suitcase. -are you going on a trip? Wait...are we going on a trip?- asks John in confusion. Sherlock arches his brows when hears John, walking into the living room he sees Mycroft standing there exasperated. -he is not going on a trip...is this about a case?- he asks intrigued approaching him. -I wouldn't call it a case. I have a  task for you dear brother- Mycroft puts the suitcase down sighing. -A task? What is that supposed to mean, you know I only take relevant cases- Sherlock can't stop staring at the blue suitcase wondering what could be inside as he observes it. -well, brother of mine, I believe you will be amused ...- John stares at them still confused -it has to do with Miss Adler .. Sherlock snaps back at Mycroft -The woman? What happened?- he tried to hide it, but he really cares for her, he likes her. -She left something for you... Pardon me, someone- he smiles incredulously. Sherlock's eyebrows knit together in concern. - William . Your son... Apparently he is yours... He is four years old. -No, no, no- Sherlock steps back shaking his head in disbelief. John's mouth drops in surprise, he sits down -is he? Really? Are you sure?- -No Doctor Watson, I believed in her words and decided to bring the kid to you immediately- he says with a smile in a sarcastic tone - Of course I made a DNA test. -my hair... Last time you were here you pulled on my hair saying i had white hairs, you lied to me! You stole it to make the DNA test- his expression is a mix of anger and annoyance.

I can't post it complete. here's the other half.

Let them be content let them be cozy let them be happy

Also I'm very happy abt Holmes' face there, I think I did nice on the perspective - given that I struggle a lot w it

[queeringclassiclit]

Which adaptation of Sherlock Holmes is the most queer?

*not including House M.D. because it's not really an adaptation, or any overtly queer pastiches like My Dearest Holmes or The Adventure of the Furtive Festivity because that's not really a fair contest

Portrait study from the Solitary Cyclist.

I started this in July with the intention of finishing it before the Letters from Watson substack finished SOLI and that did Not happen.

I’ve been gradually chipping away at it ever since with it being about 20hrs just for the digital rendering. And it only took that long because I had to keep scrapping and restarting Holmes’ face and hand. All my love for Jeremy Brett, but his face is so specific that it was the greatest struggle to get his likeness any decent. And I still find it lacking. But what can you do.

I appreciate the learning experience this gave and it’s made me increase my efforts in digital painting in the weeks since I started it. And my complaints aside, I really did enjoy the process. Frustrating at times, but very rewarding. And I’m quite proud to have finished it instead of leaving it in my wips folder for eternity.

Anyways, bonus traditional sketch with too big Holmes Head and too small Watson Head and initial color comp.

happy sherlock is trending in 2023 have my first sherlock fanart and my current fav of the boys<33

I just noticed how often Watson broke Holmes heart with his cruel words: he bitterly told Holmes that the wedding will happen whether he likes it or not, said that it is their last case together quite enthusiastically, frequently reminded Holmes to not use "us" and "we", mockingly told him that he doesn't have any friends or mates. And even if Holmes didn't answer anything, his face showed that those words stabbed him in the heart. Despite of that, Holmes continued to love Watson and accepted to die to keep him safe...

A difficult task part 3

-Sherlock, Sherlock! It's fine! We'll figure it out. - John rests his hand on Sherlock's shoulder - I will help you, Mrs. Hudson and Molly can help us too, even Mary!- he tries his best to calm down his friend. Anthea is at the door holding a little boy's hand. Even if they had not done a DNA test, there was no doubt it was Sherlock's, the book was pretty much a copy of the famous detective. Head full of dark wavy hair, it isn't curly, his round eyes a bright innocent blue, his little button nose like Irene's and he has her ears, while his lips are Sherlock's very pinkish. He is wearing a green jumper and blue jeans and brown tennis shoes. He looks neat. Sherlock looks at the little boy with an astonish expression on his face, he does look like him. -hi- his little voice say. -William this is Sherlock Holmes, your father- Mycroft pushes the boy carefully to Sherlock. They stare at each other for a second. Sherlock looks back at Mycroft again with pleading eyes. -If you have any question you can call me, I'll try my best to help you. Mommy will be delighted with the news.- Mycroft nods at them and gives a short wave to William before walking out. -Hi, Will, my name is John. Are you hungry?- John kneels down to be his height. The boy shakes his head no before looking back at Sherlock. -okay, then why don't we open your suitcase, let's see what is inside. Sherlock sits down again still in shock. His head is a mess, a million thoughts crossing his mind. John unzips the blue suitcase revealing the clothes and some story books and a stuffed pirate parrot. It was probably 30cm, bright green, a wooden left, black eye patch and a black pirate hat with a skull in the middle. William grabbed it holding it tight against his chest. Sherlock covers his face before rubbing it. John ignores him and smiles at Will. -What's his name?- he asks petting the parrot. -Bones.- will replies handing the parrot to John. Sherlock takes his hands off his face and looks at will arching his right eyebrow -Bones?... That's creative...did you chose the name yourself?- The little boy nods smiling shyly -Parrots have 25 bones. Birds came from theropods- -Do you like dinosaurs?- Sherlock is now more interested in getting to know him. It was a long evening, Sherlock didn't feel comfortable enough to be near Will. Will didn't feel comfortable enough in such a messy place with things that could break easily but he was bored. John didn't know what to do, didn't know how to help them. Okay that's all my brain could develop. I thought, wouldn't it be cute that Sherlock runs a bubble bath to him and taking him to the zoo, or the park or show him some simple experiments, dressing him in style like him. Sherlock having to deal with Will being extrovert or maybe he is introvert but Sherlock doesn't want him to be like him, because he doesn't want Will to be bullied. Imagine Will taking every kitten he finds in the street and Sherlock trying his best to not scold him but getting a bit annoyed because he has to take them out. And when he takes him to kindergarten (nursery in London) he meets the reader, (here i go again) she could be Will's teacher. She helps Sherlock so he can help Will with his homework, and maybe she teaches him some parenting tips.

December moments

Prompts used in this chapter: seasonal illness - the Case of the Frozen Corpse - midnight - jolly

What’s worse than an ill doctor, you wonder? I’ll tell you. It’s an ill consulting detective. 

December 15

“I’m dying, John” Sherlock rasps with a hoarse voice. 

“No, you’re not,” John says and places a cold cloth on Sherlock’s hot forehead. 

The great detective is rarely ill, but when he is, his dramatic personae comes forth with full force. He’s got John’s full sympathy, because John hates being ill himself, and he sucks at being a patient. Where John gets grumpy and aggressive, Sherlock whines and gets clingy as a child with separation anxiety. It can be endearing but also utterly taxing. As long as Sherlock’s fever is this high, John’s reluctant to leave him by himself, and has asked Mycroft to get one of his minions to do some shopping. Mrs. Hudson is also under the weather, so John’s included her shopping list too when he texted the older Holmes brother. 

***

When John comes back from checking on their landlady, who doesn’t need a doctor’s attention thank you very much, Sherlock’s dozed off on the sofa. John sighs relieved, finally getting some time to himself. He takes a quick shower and starts to write down their last case on the blog, which he calls The Case of the Frozen Corpse, fully knowing that Sherlock will disapprove.

It never ceases to amaze John how vast Sherlock’s knowledge about obscure establishments and businesses within London is. It had only taken him a glance at the missing man’s correspondence to realise where he was. The butchery hadn’t been mentioned per se; only the word Baron, which evidently was enough for the great detective. 

Close to Baron’s Court was a butchery with a large freezer. After a thorough search, that made all the involved cold to the bone, they’d found the corpse of the missing man. 

Brilliant, as always, John concludes and posts the entry. 

He startles when he hears his name being called. It’s almost midnight and John’s ready for bed and is grateful that he doesn’t have to rouse Sherlock from his sleep. 

“How are you feeling, love?” John asks and kneels in front of the sofa. 

“Still dying, I’m afraid,” Sherlock mutters, but his temperature is more to John’s liking now. 

He’ll probably be fine after a couple of days with enough sleep and rest. 

“Let’s get you to bed, and if you’re a jolly good boy I might read my last blog entry as a bedtime story to you,” John promises. 

It’s clearly too painful to roll his eyes, but Sherlock manages a sound John chooses to interpret as yes, John…
