Hi everyone!

I am creating for Fandom Trumps Hate again! I just wanted to express how grateful I am that this project exists and how proud I am to have been participating right from the first round so many years ago.

Please participate to keep raising funds for those who need it most— if not by bidding on my work, then by bidding on someone else’s.

I am offering fic, fic remixes, and poetry. I did list at M, but I am willing to work with a winning bidder to take on a broader range. I have also offered 5K but generally my fics for FTH go quite a bit longer. Listed my discord contact info, but you can also message me here with any questions if you are considering placing a bid.

Here is the link to my offering page: https://fth2026offerings.dreamwidth.org/205899.html

And on March 3, you can put bids in over here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1QLTtWy2T4Ge8Dfe61nX6q8fnQ7j3fWIKa-eSKxyYJfg/closedform

Iwantthatcoat - Auction #1 Bidding Form

This is to bid on a(n) written fanwork (fan fiction (new), fan fiction (remix of an existing fic), fan poetry) from Iwantthatcoat. Please do

Some of my past FTH works include The Love Plane, Where it is Always 1670, Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Werekitten, Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Therapist, A Little Game of Bees, No Smooth Knees Nor Colourless Dreams, Persistence and Memory, A Case of Identity (Selfish, Private and Easily Bored), John Goes Down Fighting, Scar Tissue, A Story that is Almost But Not Quite Entirely Unlike Blue Carbuncle, The Night Riviera from Paddington to Penzance and Back Again…. probably some more in there too. I love writing for FTH, and some of my best work has come about in writing out someone’s FTH ideas! I love taking plot bunnies and caring for them. (Even plot bunnies that go to strange places. Those plot bunnies need the most love)

Johnlock actually IS canon in Sherlock & co, but Sherlock has forbidden John from announcing it bc “if the listeners can’t deduce it themselves then they shouldn’t be listening to the podcast”

[dirtbagfemme]

No one talks about Sherlock’s snapping stim enough. I quite like his snapping stim.

Wordless version below the cut.

[eardefenders]

Sherlock "Will Lick Anything" Holmes for your dash.

[impossiblyizzy]

The difference between BBC Sherlock and Sherlock and Co is that I no longer care if Johnlock becomes canon, because Sherlock and Co is actually good.

I'm currently locked out of my own discord community and a few other apps because they're like hey just confirm with 2FA on your device.

But it's the device I broke.

And trying to explain this to corporations is verrrry difficult.

Lmao finally was able to watch my Spotify wrapped and got jump scared by Joel Emery

[greykolla-art]

I got caught up with Sherlock and co at a New Year’s party. Had to shake some fanart out of my system.👌

[eardefenders]

Hi Red I’m finally on tumblr (I’m on the Sh&Co discord). Just quickly checking in on what the heck’s up with your following list? Like no judgement if you followed on purpose but they seem weirdly out of your taste circle.

xx Spencer

Lmao sorry I never answered this sooner; tumblr never let me know it was in my inbox. If I'm following TERFs or racists or something like that let me know, because that would definitely be an accident. However, if you're referring to all the titty/preg blogs I follow in addition to fandom blogs its because I like a good mix of Sherlock Fandom, pretty fanart from any fandom, and titty/preg on my dash while I'm scrolling lol.

Tho tbf they post so infrequently that my dash is mostly politics, then a bit of sherlock and then every once in a while boobs like a little digestif.

Hello! You run the Sherlock and co flashbang event, right? I was wondering if the fanfics will be released on ao3 too, and if so, when?

Absolutely! I just got busy cause Friday was Halloween and my phone doesn't let me have access to social media most of the time now. However, I released them all last night! They should all be visible now. 😃 Let me know if you're not seeing one you know should be there.

The Adventure of the Wilted Rose

Written by @itsnobodysproblem and illustrated by @ratinavan

John woke up with a start and a strange feeling of guilt he could not place for at least two seconds.

He wasn’t supposed to be sleeping. Was he? Yes. Yes, he’d meant to stay awake. He’d meant to stay awake to wait for Sherlock.

Shit.

He turned around, expecting to see the other hotel bed occupied, and his friend sleeping peacefully in it.

But the bed was empty. Worse than empty, it looked like it hadn’t even been used.

Shit.

He scrambled to find his phone, looked at the hour - 09:31, he’d slept for almost ten hours, shit, shit - and called Sherlock.

The phone rang. And rang. And rang. 

John’s chest filled with dread with each passing second.

“Pick up, Sherlock. Please,” he whispered.

The call ended. He tried him again. 

It’s fine, he thought. It’s fine. He sometimes doesn’t pick up. And the bed… He is rather neat with his own bed…

He looked at the professionally tucked bedsheets.

He closed his eyes.

“Come on, Sherls. Pick up.”

Oh this was a good one! I liked the tension and the use of the prompt. I also loved the way Rat's art captured the moment when Sherlock looks at John.

one of my favorite things about Sherlock & Co is that the VA for Sherlock just. sounds like that. he doesn't do a voice or anything he's literally just talking. it's amazing i am in love with this adaptation. BBC Sherlock found dead in Miami

[consultingmuse]

In a Watsonian context (ha), it would be hilarious if even the great Sherlock Holmes could not escape the phenomenon of ‘autistic person learns the art of enunciating their consonants and is immediately accused of being privately educated’

I love it. It’s wonderful.

(All things considered though, Sherlock most likely did attend either an independent boarding school or a Russell Group university…and despised it.)
