Hi! Welcome to my nook of the internet!

I'm a fan of BBC Sherlock & the Holmes canon, that's what I post about here. My main is @sapphiclitstudent if you want to check it out. I'm in uni, studying (mainly) literature, dealing with, among other things, Sherlock Holmes.

Want to find things from me? Here are the links!

Watson: Holmes is an uncaring machine

The Holmes depicted in his stories: Gets very angry when he feels people are being taken advantage of. Gets upset with himself when a client is hurt/killed when he makes a mistake/didn't act soon enough. Will make social blunders considered rude, but apologizes when he realizes he offended them. Clearly pays attention to the little details about Watson, despite claiming to only keep relevant information in his brain. Clearly enjoys just spending time with Watson outside of cases (going to an orchestra, walking around the neighborhood with him, just hanging out at Baker Street)

Fun fact: Dolly Wells, the actress who played Sister Agatha in BBC Dracual also played in The Murder Rooms, a TV show about Artur Conan Doyle.

Hey, this is your reminder that in the show The Irregulars, John Watson is canonically in love with Sherlock Holmes.

Have a good day.

Was it a funny haha gay joke when John said he wasn’t gay and Irene Adler replied “well I am and look at us both”

God forbid a man wants to draw Sherlock Holmes in a diva pose (rambling about my inspo under cut + close ups)

For Trans Day of Visibility, I wanted to revisit my decade-old graphic essay about reading Holmes as trans. Originally written for the second issue of the much-missed Practical Handbook, it remains the most popular post on my blog and probably one of the pieces I am most proud of! I did not really want to simply update it, since it is an introduction of sorts to the subject – and I sincerely promise that within the next decade I will finish writing my actual essay – so I thought I’d instead reflect from a more personal angle. I love queer history, I love queer readings, I love fandom meta, I love Holmes scholarship, and most of all I love being trans. I’ve changed a lot as a person in the past ten years but my constant has always been the support of my friends, peers, and everyone who interacts with my art and ramblings! Would definitely recommend questioning your gender…and also making more characters trans and more trans characters.
