Slight spoiler for Enola Holmes 2??? Idk

My phone screen wasn't wide enough, so I had to make the second version too. Also, this gave me so much more appreciation for the amazing people who make the "aesthetic collage wallpapers" that I love so much.

Which social media would Sherlock Holmes characters have, according to a discussion I had with my friends in the middle of a night a couple days ago. This is ACD Holmes I think but leaning onto Soviet movies somewhat.

(And yes I'm aware telegram isn't popular outside of russian-speaking internet but just let it be part of the joke i guess)

Holmes: a lot of fake accounts on every website ever, but the only place that he actually posts on for himself is his telegram channel about tobacco varieties that has almost no followers. When Watson learned that Holmes has telegram, he was pissed because he thought Holmes is there to buy drugs.

Watson: he's a really popular ao3 writer. Also has a tumblr blog and an insta where he posts pictures of food, pictures of Holmes and sometimes his drawings (which he photographs with a lot of random stuff in the background for "aesthetics"). He also created a number of "official" Sherlock Holmes accounts without telling Holmes and makes all the posts there himself.

Mrs Hudson: facebook, where she posts recipes, household advices and stuff like that, and occasionally grumbles about Holmes and Watson. Also whenever they do something that really pisses her off, she would list the flat for rent, but always take it down shortly.

Moriarty: tumblr where he mostly posts about maths and a personal website to advertise as a private math tutor. Also a private telegram channel that Holmes somehow managed to follow from a fake acc.

Lestrade: EVERY social media ever. Most notably, twitter, where he always gets in fights (especially with Holmes's fake accs). He also set up an official Scotland Yard tiktok where he just makes really bad edits of policemen just walking somewhere with some music and lots of filters on.

Irene Adler: Instagram. Also onlyfans where she posts really rarely and she's always fully clothed, but she still has like thousands on thousands of followers there.

Mycroft: an official twitter that he hired someone to manage. Also facebook.

Mary Morstan: She doesn't actually exist, it's just one of Holmes's fake Instagram accs where he posted pictures of "Watson's wedding" to escape rumours.

Sir Henry Baskerville: onlyfans with only one subscriber whose username is infusoria666. Everyone but sir Henry himself knows it's Dr. Mortimer. Also Dr. Mortimer tried to set up a travel blog for him but ended up having to post there by himself.

Dr. Mortimer: tumblr blog full of skulls and also a youtube channel. He's also one of the few people who follow Holmes's tobacco telegram, and probably its biggest fan. When they met, he mentioned his youtube channel a lot, hoping that Holmes will ask for a link, but he just ignored even the most obvious hints.

Also:

Baker Street irregulars all have tiktok. They force Watson to watch skibidi toilets.

Lestrade writes with a lot of errors and uses emojis excessively.

Moriarty writes immaculately with all the capital letters and punctuation and periods in the end of every sentence. Holmes does the same but with no capital letters.

Holmes followed Irene Adler from one of his female fake accs. She in turn followed his tobacco channel from a male acc, and commented under one of his posts recommending him to follow a blog on autism.

Once Watson posted a photo of his lunch on his insta and after that a photo of Holmes with a caption "desert :)" and refused to delete it.

Holmes made a youtube channel about beekeeping when he retired.

December moments

Prompts used for today's chapter: Christmas cards - memories - candles.

If the postman delivers a lot of post to 221B before Christmas? I’ll let you know that Mycroft pays for his physio sessions during the season because of the serious amount of post he has to carry.

December 7

“The first ones have arrived,” John states gleefully when he walks into the flat with a pile of envelopes under his arm. 

Sherlock huffs, moans and sighs like the drama queen he is, but he’s not fooling John. It’s the same every year. The Christmas cards arrive, Sherlock dismisses them as irrelevant, but never fails to read each one. 

To John’s relief, Sherlock’s stopped reading them in secret. Frantic hiding, embarrassed and aggressive behaviour, are replaced with satisfied grins, adorable blushing and the occasional comment and reading aloud.

“Happy reading, my love,” John says and hands Sherlock the envelopes. 

Sherlock hums, pecks John’s mouth and seats himself in his chair. The envelopes are placed on the side table, the letter opener is put to good use, and John makes them both tea. 

***

After dinner that night, with the candles flickering, making random patterns on the table surface, they share memories from their childhood Christmases. Sherlock always celebrated in the countryside at his grandparents, while John never left London during the season. 

Despite their different experiences and celebrations, they’ve ascertained that some of their traditions were similar. Like hanging the Christmas cards on a string either over the mantlepiece or at the wall opposite the kitchen table. This tradition is one John’s particularly fond of, because they’re equally involved in deciding which cards get to be hung were. 

The aesthetically pleasing ones are placed over the mantlepiece, if the content is to both their liking. A few, which only have printed Happy Christmas and a signature, are hidden on the lower kitchen wall behind some clutter. Larger ones, that are filled with meticulous handwriting, are hung over the sofa. 

All these cards come from both old and new clients, and when they have a quiet night or a lazy weekend, they take the time to remember a particularly difficult or interesting case. Sherlock recollects John’s rugby tackles and fierce protectiveness, while John praises Sherlock’s observant deductions.

Image ID 4: A Tumblr post by nyxfaei that says “Troubled grown men doing wife shit in my mind palace” on top of Sherlock and Jon reconstructing a crime scene. Sherlock is sitting cross-legged on the floor while Jon stands silhouetted in the center of the room, which looks like a blueprint drawing.

Image ID 9: A tweet by @abbygov that says “you ever meet a man and it’s so obvious that no one in his life has ever told him to shut the fuck up” on top of Sherlock in the hotel lobby with his arms crossed. Jon is in the background leaning against a pillar and also has his arms crossed.

Image ID 10: An Onion “Opinion>>Commentary” headline that says “It’s Not Easy Being The Life Of The Orgy” on top of Verner in a mask and robes lounging on a settee and surrounded by women.

Image ID 11: A Tumblr post by demonanata that says “Everyones like ‘oh no the tragic events were so avoidable, thats terrible’ but they never ask ‘did you experience catharsis, how was the catharsis, the catharsis looked fun’” on top of Sherlock kneeling heartbrokenly at the edge of the Stonewood Manor pond with Mycroft standing over him.

Image ID 12: A ClickHole “LIFESTYLE” headline that says “Mother’s Footsteps Are Approaching. She Must Smell Your Ice Cream.” on top of Sherlock and Jon in their childhood bedroom wearing ice cream uniforms. Sherlock looks like his is about to bolt but Jon is lounging on the bed.
