Hermann Gottlieb: Consulting Detective

Ok I've been super inspired by @bitmeddler 's Sherlock Holmes Newt and Hermann AU so I've been doodling some companion pics (which Bit has graciously put in the story). Thought I'd compile them here and do a shout out and a fic rec for the story!

1. 3 ships: Newmann! (forever!) and lately Guy of Gisburne/Robert de Rainault (Sheriff of Nottingham) and Tomgreg

2. First ever ship: Han and Leia I guess but also maybe Bert and Erie or Frog and Toad?

3. Last song: The Path of the Wind (Instrumental) - Joe Hisaishi

4. Last movie: Miss Marple: Nemesis (1987) - a beautifully made tv movie.

5. Currently reading: The entire Sherlock Holmes canon. Got through A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of Four, and now I've started A Scandal in Bohemia.

6. Currently watching: The Hound of the Baskervilles 1988...again. Like right this minute. But also Colditz.

7. Currently consuming: Made myself palak paneer from scratch again. Just finished my allotted caffeinated beverage of the day, my usual Earl Grey.

8. Currently craving: Palak paneer....hence me making it for the second time in a week.

Hello! I've hit a writing slump. Can my mutuals help?

Please send me prompts for one shot, short fics for your favorite ships you know I write for. I will write as many short fics as I can.

I am stuck, writing a long, plotty, Jopzier fic, and I'm not inspired, and I keep wanting to write other stuff to get the juices flowing, but I want other people to suggest it.

Have a one shot you want to read? Here are the ships I write for:

The Adventures of Tintin:

Haddotin

Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell:

Childerell

Childerstrange

Major Merlin

BlackThistle

Childercelles

The Terror:

Jopzier

Fitzier

Bridglar

All configurations of Mcdonald/Goodsir/Stanley

Goodsilna

Sherlock:

Johnlock

The Hobbit:

Bagginshield

Kiliel

Pacific Rim

Newmann - if it's not too technical. I can't read up on Kaiju timelines right now, but I could fake it for the sake of this adorable ship.

CBS Ghosts

Hetty/Thorfin

Death In Paradise:

Richard Poole/Camille Bordey

Don't be shy! My squicks and things I don't enjoy writing:

Vampires or blood play

Kid fic

Public sex where they might get caught

Angst with no happy ending

Gen fic with no romance or sex

What I WILL WRITE:

Anything else! From T to E rated. Don't be afraid to ask for nasty, nasty smut, or innocent, sweet cuddles.

Trying to figure out newmann's watson to his sherlock

On one hand, hermann is so logical and the usual cool you see in Sherlock. But Newt has Sherlock's drive. He has questions, he will keep pushing, have dubious morality on what's right and wrong.

The other, Newt has seen and experienced things that Hermann won't. He's seen and walked through hell longer than a man should. He hasn't come out unscathed. Hermann I don't have much for other than they both use canes but I don't want that to be the only reason

HII I love this idea <3 it's a little difficult cause none of them fit Watson super well but I'm a fan of sherlock newt bc like.. passion, like he'd get really really into the mystery and wouldn't be able to think about anything else until it was solved.

Like I think newt would get really into it while hermann would be better at setting himself apart from what's happening a little more and he might urge newt in a direction when he figures something out--they're both different facets of Sherlock really so it's trickyy they would make an awesome mystery solving duo bit they'd be arguing the whole time because their approaches would be really different

[hugh-lauries-bald-spot]

im hyped for valentines day but for the RIGHT reasons

-valentine’s fics about my ships

thats it

[inquisitoradaar]

newmann server casting any duo literally ever: i think thisd be great for burn gorman and charlie day :)

[mollyencrypted]

I’m going to specify - when I say ‘modern AU ASiE’ I mean a true adaptation, where Moriarty and Moran are the ones solving Lovecraftian versions of the show’s cases and are opposed at every turn by anarchic Restorationists Sherlock and John, and it’s obvious to the reader that Jim and Sebastian are the villains but they have absolutely no idea.

AUs That Should Exist But Inexplicably Do Not

Star Trek 2009, but they’re the Order of the Stick (Okay, so maybe this one’s a bit niche)

Venom, but it’s the SCP Foundation rather than the Life Foundation

Just give me all the Venom/SCP fusions, k?

Shane and Ryan try to investigate Night Vale for Unsolved. It goes about as well as you might expect from Night Vale

I am genuinely surprised there are no proper Unsolved/X-Files crossovers (we have AUs but that is not the same thing even though The Department of Unsolved Cases is brilliant)

Virals Star Trek AU where they’re all the kids of Starfleet officers having adventures on the Loggerhead space station.

Virals but it’s Scooby-Doo

It’s not quite an AU but speaking of Scooby-Doo whERE ARE MY ALIEN INVADERS FIX FICS THAT BRING CRYSTAL AND AMBER BACK OR INSERT THEM INTO OTHER CONTINUITIES?

There’s a Venom fic that gives the guys from Worth It a cameo but we all know that’s not the obvious BuzzFeed/Venom crossover

AU where I do something with my life other than bingeing Unsolved

Holy shit there is way too much Unsolved on this list given that I swore off RPF a long time ago for damn good reasons

I have Regrets™️

Unsolved but it’s That Other Supernatural because I don’t understand why nobody has written Hunter!AU

Virals/SCP Foundation would be rad but would also make me cry a lot so maybe not

Oh hell, fuse Unsolved and SCP. If Sherlock fandom can do it so can we.

Why does Sherlock seem to have AUs for everything? It’s like Supernatural and gifs!

AU where I actually sleep.

Fic Writer 20 Questions

Tagged by mah friend @sharky857 <3

1.) How many works do you have on ao3? 117

2.) What’s your ao3 word count? 273,931

3.) What fandoms do you write for? Mainly Pacific Rim but also Sherlock Holmes/Granada Holmes, Ghostbusters, All Creatures Great and Small (the 1978 tv series), and Red Dwarf, etc. etc.

4.) What are your top five fics by kudos? Just a Thought (263), Afterglow (216), Ineffable Husbands: Angsty Fluff prompts (215), Side Effects from the Exposure to a Kaiju Femoral Pore by Dr. Newton Geiszler (feat. Dr. Hermann Gottlieb) (201), and The L Word (174).

5.) Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?! As soon as I can!! I sometimes forget....for like a month or two...oops. But I love getting kind comments on my fic. It's important to acknowledge readers and their efforts to compliment you.

6.) What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? The Ghost of Gottlieb Mansion ...I shan't say.

7.) What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? OMG pretty much of them!! LOL Unhappy endings are for TV shows on HBO.

8.) Do you get hate on fics? I got a super picky review once. It came from a good place but it came across as super arrogant. And another made a good point about my phrasing (which I fixed) but the feedback was highly accusatory.

9.) Do you write smut? If so what kind? So much smut. Some of it is raunchy but most of it vanilla with a lot of hurt/comfort and sappiness. It can be said I enjoy the occasional PWP, usually with feelings.

10.) Do you write cross overs? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? I'm not into crossovers much. I did write a Ghostbusters (1984) and Granada Holmes crossover: A Hunting We Will Go which was enjoyed by some.

11.) Have you ever had a fic stolen? Nearly a decade ago now there was a copy-paste kinda website that pulled a lot of fics onto it. I think I filed a complaint. Not sure. Anyhow, I think it's down now.

12.) Have you ever had a fic translated? Not to my knowledge. Let me know if you ever want to.

13.) Have you ever cowritten a fic before? Yes, many years ago with a former friend. But I also have great memories of writing RP posts with the Downton Abbey crowd. Good fun!

14.) What’s your all time favourite ship? Newton and Hermann from Pacific Rim....duh. <3

15.) What’s a WIP you’d like to finish, but doubt you ever will Consolation for a Weary Traveler - Lord of the Rings - the fandom is too intimidating. I posted one chapter and got feedback so quick and I was like nope! people will hate me for writing Elrond smut.

16.) What are your writing strengths? My dialogue is pretty good. I capture characterization and voices fairly well.

17.) What are your writing weaknesses? Long fics. I have the stamina for novels apparently but not long fics.

18.) Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? I do occasionally use other languages in fic but I research the crap out of it first.

19.) First fandom you wrote for? Doctor Who! but technically I wrote fiction (a tv script) that was fan fiction adjacent for Honey I Shrunk the Kids, The TV Show. (My writing went so far away from one of the guest characters that it can't be called fan fiction anymore and now it's going to be a novel...whenever I get around to it.)

20.) Favourite fic you’ve ever written? Take to the Skies - RAF Pilot Newmann from Pacific Rim. I was just really happy with the way it turned out.

Tagging: @spengnitzed @hermannsthumb @decadentmousse @k-sci-janitor and whoever writes fic!

[planecrackers]

Thinking about newmann, after all that I've been reading about the events of Pacific Rim Uprising, and what the ship has become.

I remember seeing the first movie all those years ago; it was a free showing on my campus a couple of months after it came out, and I went on a whim. The film got me hook line and sinker, and I became enraptured with the fandom and the ship. Newmann became something special to me because I got into it right around when I was questioning my own identity, and as dumb as it sounds, I do believe it did help me to eventually come to terms with myself.

Coming out of the toxic miasma that was the Sherlock/johnlock fandom, the PacRim community was full of incredible people and creators, with so much passion for the film. Some of the best fics I've ever read (and I mean in terms of pure writing skill and nuance, not just shipping nonsense) came out of this fandom, and were for this ship.

As with all fandoms, eventually the lull in content dispersed the community to new interests, but PacRim and Newmann will always be an integral part of who I am today.

Which is why im making this, as I mourn the ship in light of the events of this sequel. It would be one thing to not really develop the characters, they weren't very prominent in the first movie. But with the hype of the ship becoming cannon, and the interviews that all but confirmed it, I became suspicious. It wouldn't be the first time a film toted about having a gay couple, just for it to turn out untrue and/or just used as bait. PacRim Uprising didn't do this, however, what they did is arguably worse. Yes they gave us our 'cannon ship', yes we have our gay couple (I guess), but in return, it ends in tragedy as is the norm for depections of LGBT couples. I don't know if I'd rather have this cop out, or just the baiting. It all feels the same to me. The ship will forever be tainted with this.

And it feels like a cheap shot for the film and those behind it to recgonize the fandom, and the ship, and then to do this. Im feeling a little bitter that something special to me has been taken away, in a sense.

I just wanted to share me feelings on this. I was never a big contributor to the fandom, but it still meant something to me, and it saddens me for it to end like this.

[magnaflourious-nerdity]

I want to ask you all the shipping questions! Can you do: 1, 4, 5, 28, 30?

I got like three or four asks from this one post alone lol. I feel so valued. I have enough ships to more than go around, however, so if I get a repeat I’ll just answer again!

1: What ship do you love as husbands?

Well I mean, it’s right there in the name, but ineffable husbands (i.e. crowley/aziraphale from Good Omens) are my fave old married couple. Like, really old married couple. Pretty sure they’ve been married since the dawn of humanity, or at least sometime right after. They’re so domestic! With their ‘dear this’, and 'angel that’. It’s sickeningly fluffy and I love them for it.

ALSO I can’t possibly let this slide without talking about spirk. I just can’t. They are, after all, the original gaaaaaays iiiin spaaaaaace. Have you ever seen a more married couple?!

4: What’s your super-duper cute ship?

Hmmm. Well I’ve read a lot of sulu/chekhov fluff for both TOS and TAOS. I just think they’re neat. Also I like amy/jake from B99 for the sweet fluff reasons, too.

Also: GOTHIC WOLF. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH DOMESTIC FICTION I HAVE READ FOR THESE TWO?!? THE ANSWER IS ALL OF IT. THAT IS NOT EXAGGERATION. ALL. OF. IT.

5: Any Asexual ships?

Back in the day, about half the time, I used to HC Sherlock as Asexual and I’ve actually read some decent fic of it.

Also Steve Rogers is demi so like, fight me everyone else.

28: What ship made me cry?

I have a love/hate relationship with angst (as in love to read it, hate the way I cry like a baby every damn time) so the real question here, is what ship hasn’t made me cry?

Newmann, Spirk, Sterek, and Dean/Cas are some of the biggest offenders though. Johnlock had that one fic that broke me down, hard. Janto did me real dirty in Children of Earth .

Hartwin’s been the most recent for sure, and, Oh, oh no. I’m now uncovering memories of all the merthur fic I’ve read and how the show just tore my heart open. Why would you do this to me.

Also anything where it’s like 1 character/the love and support of their found family is definitely guilty of this.

30: Recommend one fanfic.

Why must I choooooose.

Warmth in Winter ( https://archiveofourown.org/works/13054797 ) was cute and domestic Gothic Wolf.

Also, if I’ve never recommended the BWOC story Proposition that means I have failed you as a friend, please go read it. ( https://m.fanfiction.net/s/1409491/1/Proposition )

Thank you for the asks this was so much fun! And hey if you wanna ask more I won’t stop you lol
