Sherlock Sick Stuffs

All manor of sick stuffs. A lot of upset tums and emeto with characters from BBC Sherlock, and associated bits and pieces. Various ships.

[lady-of-the-spirit]

a newly turned werewolf frantically googling whether or not they can eat chocolate now, finding several different answers that don’t clear anything up, and finally having a stare-down with a bar of chocolate wondering whether or not it’s worth it to just try it themselves and see what happens, and getting sidetracked wondering if they’ll have to go to the doctor’s or the vet if it turns out badly for them.

Sickfic Asks

I’ve seen the snez ask floating around so I thought I’d make one focused on sickfics. Enjoy 😊

✔ - Favorite symptom to read

✖ - Least favorite symptom to read

💯 - Do you prefer to see the number of the fever or that part be kept a mystery?

🌡- Favorite type of thermometer to be used? Mercury? Digital? Ear? Those futuristic laser guns?

🏃‍♂️ - Slow burn or get right into the action?

👀 - Would you rather the limited third person be from the sickie or the caregiver? Would you rather it focus more on the sickie’s thoughts and feelings or the caregiver’s?

💎- Or even more, what do you think about first person fics?

[fluphoria-deactivated20190823]

I’ve never done one of these so… pls :]

[stomachflu]

i’m not sure which i like more:

- painful, bloated tummies that are rock-hard to the touch

- or soft, squishy, achy tummies that gurgle when you press in on them.

[sherlocksicktums]

Sorry I not been around here. RL really got in the way. But this last week has been on and off nausea for me personally when I was hit with a bad migraine the evening of my city’s pride. Since then my digestive system has been tetchy on and off... nausea... etc etc... like it’s not settled even after nearly a week...

[sickficsucker]

Feeling sick lines:

“I don’t feel good”

“My stomach…”

“My stomach hurts”

“I’m not feeling so good”

“I feel sick…”

“I feel nauseous”

“My head hurts”

“I feel like I’m going to throw up”

“My stomach is upset”

“That didn’t feel good..”

“My head’s killing me”

“Something’s not agreeing with me”

[queasy-hiccups]

You know what I’ve never stopped to consider? Okay- so hiccups. Good shit. Little hiccups? Hell yeah. Big hiccups that rock their entire frame? HELL YEAH. Okay anyway… burps. Also good shit. Queasy, reserved, loud, long, wet, dry, you name it, hell yeah. Okay- but here me out. Hiccups that elicit burps. A character’s so nauseous that they’re even scared to burp, hiccupy and miserable. But just one hiccup could bring that needed burp for either relief, or to send them over the edge. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

[ask-mollry]

Hello folks! Promise I am still here, just very busy with lots of projects, RL work and only just getting my laptop back after it’s been broken for AGES. 

So… How about for a Femslash February treat we try and get this little blog some more reach. So far we have 20 followers? Can we double that and make it to 40?

[shylockgnomes]

Give a teeny blog a boost?

[sickficideas]

sickfic dialogue #13

“You only drink that when you’re not feeling good.”

character A says to B, after catching B drinking something that they will only ever drink if they’re sick.

[whackmewithwhump]

Sherlock headcanon

Okay so I think a lot about how Sherlock says he doesn’t like to eat during cases, because digestion slows down his thinking or whatever

But I can’t help but think that really he just has a sensitive stomach, and that he doesn’t want an upset tummy to distract him from his work. Idk I think it would be the most adorable thing ever

[sherlocksicktums]

Promise I’m not dead! I am really struggling with that shoulder John fic. But I have a few other headcanons and prompts I’ll maybe work on first and come back to that one!

[sickficideas]

sickfic prompt #6

character A and B sleep in the same bed. A fell asleep a while ago, earlier than usual, and B is up late at night on their phone. B is completely caught off guard when A wakes up very suddenly to puke over the side of the bed, still half-asleep.

[sherlocksicktums]

Gonna do this one.

[sherlocksicktums]

Sherlock is all Christmassy now.

Still working on that John shoulder prompt when I can.

Been busy.

[sherlocksicktums]

And heck yes to John's shoulder acting up, gosh I love it. All the jerking and sudden movements can really strain the body, especially with an injury in the back, shoulders or ribs. Imagine him shouting Sherlock into the bathroom because it hurts so much that he's really struggling to move it at all, asking him to massage it and talking him through how. Sherlock would learn so quickly, and he'd probably be concerned enough to hold John's forehead while he threw up, worried he'll hurt himself (2)

I so want to write this now. There might be a ficlet later.

[sherlocksicktums]

Still writing this, just have a lot on at the minute. Haven’t forgotten. Also been fighting my very own cold this weekend, so been doing a lot of sleeping.

[sherlocksicktums]

Famous last words! I got a whole bunch of this and some other bits of fic done in a bout of insomnia last night. I’m half done now.

[but-who-saves-you]

[love-in-mind-palace]

I fuckin hate this 😭😭

[one-thousand-splendid-stars]

Why

[posh-boy-clever-boy-deactivated]

Who gave you the right.
