Thank you for tagging me, @thetimemoves!

Rules: Give us the links to your wonderful words with the most hits, most kudos, most comments, most bookmarks, most words, and least words.

Most Hits/Kudos/Comments/Bookmarks: Most hits, kudos, and comments—by a landslide—goes to Indefinite Lines. This is my post s4 mega-fuck-off of a fic that endeavored to take everything we were given in canon and turn it into something beautiful. Epic villains. BAMF!Rosie. Love for days.

To Stand Before the Storm still holds the title for most bookmarks, I assume because sheep. 🐑

Fourth Most Kudos: This is You Might Just as Well Be Blind, a fun-as-hell, fake-relationship-for-a-case, only-one-bed fic I managed to churn out at record speed for a fic exchange that somehow managed to turn out not that bad. Bonus BAMF!Hudders.

Most Words: Once again, Indefinite Lines by a landslide! This fic technically takes place over the course of 4,650 days. There was a lot to say.

Least Words: Excluding the Pridelocked poetry I wrote, that would be Origin of a New Species, the first fic I ever posted! This is a bit of an odd one, told from the perspective of a Sherlock who is so bored that he (metaphorically) devolves into a single-celled organism...until John helps, of course. This fic is a perfect example of why fanfic is so fucking awesome, because nowhere else would I be able to write that bullshit and have anyone else be willing to read it 😆

I think Sherlockians should take a new tack. No more demanding the Johnlock we're still due. I need to know more about the REAL sister.

WHAT ABOUT HARRY?!

I demand answers.

My ✨️#1 ✨️post of 2022

What If I'm Not (Continued ...)

In confessing to Sherlock why he's not o.k., John thinks he will push away the one person he loves and cares about most ...

For how could such a confession not?

'I am glad you are the way you are and I'll always support you, Sherlock.'

At the wedding, Janine's says to Sherlock: 'Oh, I wish you weren't... Whatever it is you are.' I guess one could interpret this as a compliment or just a selfish joke, though I found it was an odd and not very supportive thing to say. But that is probably because I heard too often that someone wished I was different.

I am flattered if you reblog, but do NOT post my art on other sites/social media or use in any other way without my written permission.

Happy pridemonth everybody! This artwork is my contribution to @ohlooktheresabee Pridelocked event, and I am very glad that I was able to participate because both Johnlock and pride are an important part of my life. The main post is here.

I put much thought and work into this artwork, choosing each flower for their meaning: 

John’s flower crown, the bisexual flag, consists of:

blue gladiolus (faithfulness, strength, bravery)

violets (loyalty, devotion, also a sign of Sappho and bisexuality) 

pink rhododendron ponticum (danger, also mentioned in the episode “The reichenbachfall”)·      

Sherlock’s flower crown, the rainbow pride flag, consists of:

red amaryllis (pride)

orange chrysanthemums (love)

yellow lily (devotion)

green carnation (a gay symbol in the Victorian era, part of the wedding flowers in “The sign of three”)

blue iris (passion, wisdom) 

violet papaver somniferum (opium poppy, because of Sherlock’s addiction). 

I also plan on doing another version with the asexual/demisexual pride colours on Sherlocks flower crown. Thank you so much that I was able to participate, and go check out the Pridelocked event, it’s still going for all of june, every day another artist and fanfictions!

[ceruleanmindpalace]

Feel free to check out my asexual Sherlock fanart and my asexual Sherlock writing (here).

For this one, I’m going with a sort of high-school AU because I like Irene, just- more of her ACD version. Also high school sherlock and Irene remind me of when someone I vibe with and I are talking incessantly and just ideas flowing across the table and everyone else is just looking at us like “woah what is going on these two just GET each other.” Also I recently made a lesbian pride moodboard which is basically pretty sunsets and nothing too obvious because ppl who are not out yet need something nice for pride without hurting their safety and so I'm attaching that thing here too! If y'all wanna use it you can, just gimme credit like warriorbooworm made this. Also asks and requests for moodboards are open.

So highschool sherlock and Irene, right? They have that kinda vibe. U can see they’re different, and while they don’t sit together all the time, but whenever they do talk, they work so well together and they are ready to defend their friends from homophobes. Irene carries weird stuff in her bag to beat them up with, Sherlock deduces them and exposes their greatest secrets.

One time, they are camping, the conversation is just zipzapping and Irene is like “I’m cold” Sherlock just hands her his coat and steals John's sweater.

Yeah. So Sherlock and Irene being platonic soulmates for the win!

PRIDELOCKED: JUNE 2ND

Asexual Sherlock Holmes for the month of Pride. 

Sherlock Holmes loved Dr. John H. Watson. He outwitted his enemies with his great mind and helped those in need with his great heart. And that is nothing if not encouraging. Because I too have a great heart, and I am capable of great things, and capable of great love. As are you!

[consult-sherlockholmes]

Happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈❤️ you oblivious genius

Thank you, I am very proud. And also a genius. The oblivious is questionable.
