A case and a total solar eclipse. Is it my birthday? It certainly feels like it, maybe with a bit of christmas as well.

I j remembered that Sherlock Holmes canonically doesnt remember the solar system. But Professor Moriarty is know for liking mathematics and astronomy, right?
What if the entire rivalry started because Moriarty heard that this one consulting detective never remembered the solar system b/c it didn’t pertain to a case and he was like ‘I’ll show you a case mf—solar system and planets are important’
Idk just smth that made me lose sleep
#acd holmes#Sherlock Holmes#James Moriarty#this is like head canon#I am not claiming canocity#just a funny parallel#perfect idea for a crack fic#and John’s like oooo finally he’ll remember it#not ‘holmes’ nemesis’ but ‘the savior that enlightened Holmes to the solar system’#professor moriarty

sherlock holmes is probably literature's most nosy bitch. he just has to know everything. ‘it’s my business’. aight.
if someone started telling him something, then at the last moment went ‘hmmm. nevermind’ and he couldn’t deduce what they were about to say, he’d explode.
#mine#text#hes my funny little guy#he knows all the local gossip but couldnt tell you shit about the solar system#sherlock holmes#acd sherlock holmes#acd holmes#acd canon#granada holmes#everyday i think watson should've gotten a knighthood

i love it when characters are very smart but dont know basic things, like sherlock holmes not knowing that the earth goes around the sun or henry winter not knowing that men had walked on the moon. it makes me be like “theyre just like me fr” bc i often forget stupid unimportant shit like the number of letters in the alphabet and the only reason i know that there are 365 days in a year is because of that stupid disney 365 jingle that played during disney channel commercials
#sherlock holmes#henry winter#im not joking btw that stupid jingle plays in my head whenever i have to think abt the number of days in a year#same with the solar system planetary order#i have to sing a little song in my head that we sang in a play in elementary school

So, @silv-paru sent Sherlock Holmes for the character opinion bingo. thanks a bunch for this (and for your patience. my god, i’m answering this a week late. typical me behaviour). you’re a darling :D
Did you know, i used to tell these stories to my friends? they delighted in them AND i got a chance to sort of ramble on and on abt him and watson. it was a win-win, really. ah, those were the days! now i haven’t reblogged much of him this month at all. i miss him. I MISS HIM.
Onto the bingo: well. he’s The quintessence of gender™ to me. and i relate to him so so much. fav character of all time fr. i want to carry him in my pocket at all times & study him. like. do i want to BE him OR am i IN LOVE with him, ykwim? pssh who knows? certainly not me. uh-huh ‘a beast unleashed’ -does this refer to me or him? you choose. oh re: canon, i’m ignoring the part where holmes dies (or y’know, is dead for 3 years). that’s too angsty.
#sherlock holmes#my dearest blorbo#he’s my belovedest chewtoy basically#if i think abt how modern adaptations *looking at you bbc sherlock* have ruined his character i get so angry i have to take deep breaths#*mutters darkly* he is NOT an arrogant cold-hearted bitch like he’s portrayed; well he IS a bitch but not a cold-hearted one!!#see. the thing abt holmes is that he’s SUCH a sweet boy okay. and he’s compassionate#he cares sooo much. that’s the reason people come to him when they’re distressed. they trust him#he hates the police. he is a jester at heart. loves his watson#he’s here to help the truly desparate helpless people even if they have no money to pay him for the case. no questions asked. But-#he fucking despises obnoxious rich men. the first time he meets watson a total stranger he *very excitedly* tells him abt his experiment#it’s very adorable. he never stops trying to impress ever. infact blushes furiously when complimented by him#my guy has 0 knowledge of our solar system but he’s written several monographs abt different types of ASHES. go figure!#OH i almost forgot the most important fact he’s special to me bc holmes is an audhd gay disaster bastard. sometimes he’s even bisexual#but mostly he’s acespec and in a qpr w watson. he’s VERY adhd. behaves like an excited cat and oh so cute when he stims. everytime he does#i go SQUEEE. when he’s depressed it’s a goddamn hashtag big mood. as in many other ways he is me i am him#he’s PASSIONATE and KIND that’s all you need to know#acd stories are about just some guy who loves his job (which he invented himself btw after quitting college) that’s it#i am overcome with an almighty need to squeeze his cheeks#he’s everything to me <3#alright if i don’t stop now i doubt i ever will LMAO bye#acd holmes#if u read till the end u get a cookie and a kiss on the nose i love u#silv tag 💞

oh now you know how the sun works huh
#i know i know that this isnt the same as the solar system#but wouldn't it be funny if holmes used to know about it in his youth and just doesn't give a shit anymore as an older man#babygirl i love you but please sto forgetting things on purpose all the time#letters from watson#sherlock holmes

you know that bit in Dan Vs where they say "its anyones guess what he knows about any given topic" and then they reveal he knows who sculpted Mount Rushmore but doesn't know what state its in (he says "I don't know, Ecuador or something!")?
You already know what I'm thinking about. Mr Sherlock Holmes

why sherlock didn't immediately understand who kidnapped john
!!SHERLOCK SEASON 3 SPOILERS AHEAD!!
GUYS GUYS GUYS GUESS WHAT I FIGURED OUT
so in sherlock s03e01, the empty hearse, sherlock pulls john out of the bonfire. the next day, when john is at 221b, sherlock says that he can't figure out who targeted john because "it's too nebulous. nebulous means "(of a concept or idea) unclear, vague, or ill-defined". this obviously refers to nebulas and outer spacey stuff. in tGG (s01e03), as we all know, he says that his mind is a hard drive in response to john saying "Whether the Earth goes round the Sun" as one of the things sherlock has confessed to not really knowing (he also says "But it’s the solar system!). that's why sherlock doesn't immediately know who's targeting john. it's because it's like the solar system, nebulous.
idk if anyone has thought of this before, i just wanted to put it out there bc it's cool. i hope it's interesting!
#sherlock#sherlock bbc#the great game#the empty hearse#john watson#somewhat johnlock#bc ofc sherlock doesn't understand the solar system

Reblogging only to give voice to the people in the replies but Sheelock Holmes in the original canon was a proper gentleman by the standards of the time and had no issue with women beyond distrust, and after the introduction of Irene Adler he shows even greater respect for women.
Happy “Sherlock Holmes Can Legally Be Nice To Women,” day to all those who celebrate.
#anyway my favorite sherlock holmes fun fact is that he canonically doesnt know the planets of the solar system#however he can identify cigars by the ashes they leave#this man is so autism

Just started reading Sherlock Holmes and all the adaptations are wrong. This man is a delight. He gets excited about hemoglobin and is ecstatic at the thought of Watson as a roommate. He purposefully forgets how the solar system works so he has more room in his brain for crime. He shows Watson the dirt stains on his trousers and he can tell what part of London they come from based on color and consistency. (As far as i can tell Watson didn't ask, Sherlock just gets back from walks and tells Watson about the stains unprompted.) The text specifically says "Holmes was certainly not a difficult man to live with." Why does every adaptation make him unpleasant and rude, he's literally just eccentric. He's such a goober, I love him.

sherlock holmes is so real for ignoring all the shit irrelevent to his crime hyperfixation (such as, THE FUCKING SOLAR SYSTEM) and retaining only what serves it best. neurodivergent king, i adore him, he's so weird
#the only difference in this method between me is sherlock holmes#is that it works out fine for him whilst i must Suffer#sherlock holmes#acd holmes
