#platonic sherlock headcanons

[fictionfromthevoid]

Being in a QPR with ACD!Sherlock Holmes would include

Headcanons for the original book Sherlock Holmes and reader being in a QPR (so the setting is the 19th century)

You are a teacher at a girls' boarding school when one day another teacher is murdered and Sherlock is hired to solve the case

You try to help as best you can and he quickly realises how smart you are

(Watson also thinks you are attractive but you shut him down very quickly, expressing that you have no interest in romance of any kind)

this earns you respect from Sherlock

Since his knowledge of the world is sometimes rather specific (he doesn’t know the earth moves around the sun?!), whenever a case requires knowledge he and Watson don't have he sends you a letter to consult you

You basically become pen pals

As a woman in the 19th century you are very limited but also very dedicated to give your girls a good education

so whenever you need to do a science experiment, want to test out a theory or need lab equipment and your school won’t help you you write to Sherlock

So in your free time, you can often be found working on some experiment at 221B Baker Street

Sometimes you also assist Sherlock with his experiments when you are free and Watson is annoyed

Accompanying them on cases every now and then

You are smart but also good with people which makes questioning suspects a lot easier

Soon you are a regular guest in 221B

Mrs Hutson loves you

Comforting Sherlock when he couldn’t solve a case, or someone he should protect dies

This is also when you first hug

Watson sent you a letter that they had a bad case, Sherlock couldn’t solve it and the client died. Since then he has been inconsolable. He plays sad music on his violin all the time and takes drugs and Watson is getting scared for him.

When you arrive he is standing at the window playing the violin

You march over to him, take the violin out of his hand and pull him into a hug

He is ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED. Completely freezes, every muscle tensing up

You don’t care and keep hugging him, so he slowly settles into the hug

He buries his face into your shoulder and lets out a heavy sigh

You stand like this for a long time

When you finally let go you make tea and talk about the case

Since then hugs have become a regular thing for the two of you

much to the surprise of Dr. Watson

The doctor doesn’t understand your relationship at the beginning

he keeps nagging Sherlock and sometimes even you about a potential romantic relationship, and asks all the time if and when you are gonna marry

After you and Sherlock have explained to him a thousand times that you don’t have romantic feelings of any kind towards each other and that your relationship is not like that he finally accepts it

even tho you are not sure he fully understands he sees that your relationship is rather like his friendship with Sherlock

When Dr. Watson marries, Sherlock asks you to move in after a while

This is seen as quite scandalous -an unmarried man and woman living together- and nearly costs you your job but you manage

Now that Watson is occupied more often you are a more frequent companion on cases

You also have more time to work on scientific projects together since living together

sometimes when one of you is feeling especially down long hugs turn into cuddling

You sit on the sofa together and just hold each other in your arms

You always make sure that Sherlock takes care of himself

You bring him food when he is absorbed into a case and refuses to eat. When he refuses to take even a small bite you will go on a rant on how his body and mind will break down if he continues to starve himself

This usually has no effect so you just start shoving food in his face until he eats it

Reading Horror and murder mysteries together and laughing about the stupid murderers

When you both retire you move to Sussex together

He tends to his bees and you take up gardening

[microwavablefork]

I think that, perhaps, I don’t exactly view Holmes and Watson in any sort of romantic relationship, but instead a close queer friendship. They do not have a romantic interest in one another, yet they’ll comfortably sleep in the same bed or be physically affectionate and cuddle with one another. They are each other’s worlds, though only platonically. Watson is able to love his wife while also holding a tender affection for Holmes, his best friend. (and vise versa… minus the wife for Holmes). They feel comfortable around one another to be ‘non-conforming’ in heterosexual terms, yet they would never persue anything further. Instead they find comfort in the fact only the other can understand their own affections, and just how much it means to them both.

Idk tho maybe that’s just me projecting my own experience in my own close friendships with same sex friends as an unlabeled queer person

[tremendously-crazy]

this is the type of shit john watson would get for sherlock holmes

[frickingnerd]

herlock as your adoptive father

pairing: herlock sholmes x gn!reader x iris wilson

tags: platonic relationship, found family, platonic iris x reader

you're not herlock's only child! despite neither of you being his biological children, he has adopted both iris and you!

you're the older one, but herlock had iris around for longer than he knew you

herlock hadn't intended to adopt either of you. he took iris in because of her father, while you were an orphan that lived on the street

for quite a while, he called iris and you his roommates and nothing more. but over time, he grew attached to the two of you, without ever mentioning it

only when one of you called him “dad” once did he tear up, trying to hide how happy he was

after that, herlock began to get the papers ready for an adoption. for a few weeks, he didn't mention anything, before he suddenly presented them to you during dinner

herlock tried to play it off as a joke, in case the two of you didn't want to become his family. but neither you nor iris hesitated to sign those papers!

herlock still treats the two of you very casually most of the time. he's not physically affectionate, so he'll only hug you if you initiate it

however, he does talk very proudly about his kids to his friends and coworkers!

and he also likes to joke that women seem more interested in him, now that he's a single dad…

[arttsuka]

The suspect got away, so sad 😞

I can't make him look not like Reigen help

(Ignore my terrible handwriting please and thank you)

[its-all-ineffable]

Any headcanons on domestic stuff with Sherlock and John, during any point in the series or post canon?

Omg, so many!!

John and Sherlock go to Angelo's for dinner after closing a big case. They make it a point to go at least once a month, and Angelo always gets them a candle. John has learned to stop protesting it. They pick this tradition back up after Sherlock comes back, and then again after John & Rosie move back in.

John falls asleep in his chair sometimes, often while Sherlock is playing his violin. Sherlock always places the blanket from the back of the chair over John.

Sherlock likes to stretch out on the sofa, he claims "to think" (rather like in A Study in Pink). However, he often falls asleep like that, and John always drapes a blanket over him when he does.

When there's no need to go out, or no one due over, Sherlock likes to stay in his pyjamas as long as he possibly can (always with a dressing gown on). Because his pyjamas are so comfy and are for bed, they make Sherlock feel sleepy when he's sat around in them. John looses track of the number of times Sherlock falls asleep in his chair or on the sofa next to John in the afternoons.

When John makes himself tea, he always makes one for Sherlock too, and sets out a plate of biscuits. Sherlock always has biscuits with his tea. Even during a case.

Since Baskerville, John has started taking sugar in his coffee (just a little bit). However, he always watches Sherlock when his friend makes it for them. It's a standing joke between them.

Sometimes, Sherlock finds John sat with his coat on John's lap, or finds John asleep in the living room using the coat as a blanket. This is a remnant of how John coped when Sherlock was dead, and was missing him. Sherlock never says anything about it.

Sometimes after a case, John is too tired to go up another flight of stairs to his room, and Sherlock has a very comfy bed. So they share.

Sherlock sometimes steals John's cardigans and wears them around the flat. John retaliates by stealing Sherlock's dressing gowns. Mrs Hudson has witnessed this many times, and always finds it hilarious.

Sherlock delights in being with Rosie. When John and Rosie move in with him, Sherlock dedicates hours to playing with her, reading to her and feeding her. He loves to take her to nursery/school, and always comes up with outings for them all to go on. Sherlock misses her when she's not in the flat.

Sherlock always insists on carrying baby/toddler Rosie when they go somewhere. Rosie always wants Sherlock to pick her up and carry her, even as she gets older. She also likes to sit on Sherlock's lap. John often finds them curled up together in random places in the flat, Rosie on Sherlock's lap and nestled into him.

I could go on forever but I'll stop there for now! Do you have any, I'd love to know them?!

SEND ME AN ASK ABOUT BBC SHERLOCK

SEND ME AN ASK ABOUT AMC IWTV/THE VAMPIRE CHRONICLES

[wilsons-divorce-papers]

thinking about Sherlock & Co too much so have some orientation headcanons

watson: bi but still in the closet. he’s a staunch ally before coming out, but he was just raised in a small town and hasn’t felt free to explore his own feelings openly.

mariana: omni. i feel like she could love any and everyone (and would look good doing it)

sherlock: demiromantic asexual. i think his romantic attraction mimics his platonic attraction, which we’ve seen develop and deepen for both John and Mariana. in my mind, he leans toward sex-indifference and favors sensual intimacy.

[i-dont-talk-for-days-on-end]

Obsessed with the headcanon that Sherlock Holmes only very rarely or even never says "I love you".* But Watson knows him, and he knows. It does not matter. He does not need to say it.

Bonus points if Watson does say it and it's just completely okay that Holmes can't say it back. He has his ways to show it, and Watson trusts him. I just don't think that Holmes - even at the best of times and comfortable in/with a relationship - would/could be very vocal about his feelings.

*This goes for both romantic and platonic interpretations of their relationship.

Your Sherlock Life

Guys, I'm pretty free tonight. Or any time. Send asks with an intro of yourself or an oc and I'll pair you with BBC Sherlock characters (romantic or platonic, whatever you want), and headcanons.

If youre stuck on what to write, here's a list of (hopefully) helpful stuff:

Love language (either platonic or romantic: gifts, holding hands, touch, forehead kisses etc)

Dying your hair/piercings/nails

Fashion style

Ideal home (type of house/family dynamic)

Things you're into (hyperfixations)

Things you're good at (hobbies, skills)

Ideal future (marriage? Kids? Having a little bakery in the middle of london?)

Let me know if you want a male/female/doesn't matter pairing.

[fictionfromthevoid]

Being Childhood best friends with Sherlock would include

Your families being neighbours when you grew up, so you quickly become friends with Sherlock who is the same age

Quickly becoming inseparable, no matter where Sherlock goes you aren’t far off

The Holmes parents love you since you are „normal“ and „a good influence“ and even Mycroft kinda likes you

After the Euros incident your memories change too , to match Sherlocks because you deal with the trauma together

always protecting Sherlock from bullying

„ hey, listen to me. You. Are. Not. A Freak. Ok?“

after uni work makes you move away from London so you stay in touch with Sherlock mostly trough phone calls and Skype

John doesn’t know about you for a long time

He is completely freaked out when you visit one day and Sherlock HUGS YOU?!

Telling John a ton of embarrassing stories form Sherlocks childhood

John admires how you are the only one who can really handle Sherlock when he’s acting strange

You know how Sherlock’s mind works and how to help him when he’s stuck in a thought loop or freaking out

When his brain is understimulated and he’s dying of boredom you drive around in the underground together

he can deduce everything about everyone for hours which keeps his mind busy

he can only do that with you because you notice when it’s getting to much for him and then you drag him out at the next station

Always playing cluedo together

After being introduced to John you join them on cases every now and then

Oh and you are probably fucking smart… I mean you are friends with Sherlock Holmes

You are the only person he hugs

when John marries you move in with Sherlock

You comfort him when he misses John and he feels lonely, he even cries in front of you

At the wedding when he wants to leave you catch him outside and comfort him

As teenagers you took your dance classes together so naturally you dance a lot together at Johns wedding

still you two leave rather early and spend the night playing cluedo

People often mistaking you for a couple (just as with John and Sherlock)

Christmas dinners with the Holmes family

Pranking Mycroft together

I think I need to end this here but I’ve got so many more thoughts haha

Let me know what you think about my headcanons

Some Sherlock (and Co) headcanons me and my partner came up with

Aroace Sherlock in queer platonic relationship with John

John being 99.8% cishet yet still agrees to be Sherlock’s queer platonic partner and any future love interest of Watson’s can flip off if she has a problem with it cause they’re a package deal buy one Watson get one Sherlock free

Sherlock introducing John as his partner and internally giggling because it can mean 2 things

(Just thought of this one as I wrote the above, polyamorous qpp between John, Sherlock AND Mariana)

Sherlock being good at being aware of the world but not himself, John learns Sherlock’s stressed signs and notices them before Sherlock does himself so he becomes extra doting and patient

Sherlock is clingy, but doesn’t like to admit to it (he DOES however follow and hang John around like a cat that loves its owner, especially when he’s highly stressed)

Sherlock has looong curly-ish hair and gets his hair combed/brushed and braided by John and Mariana because he’s not very good at being consistent with hair care, he thinks it’s trivial and just throws it into a bun but won’t cut his hair bc sensory issues

Monthly Spa day for Sherlock, Mariana and Watson and Sherlock secretly loves when Mariana paints his nails

Sherlock aggressively dances while playing his violin change our minds
