Sherlock Holmes is the funniest case of “doomed by the narrative” ever. Doomed by the narrative and destined to die young bc the creator hated him, and then the fans literally bullied him into un-dooming the narrative, writing about him for another thirty years, and giving the character a canonical happy ending where he retires to the countryside and keeps bees. Funniest shit ever.

in a way john watson is a fantasy (what if you had this brilliant enigmatic friend and what if he liked you in particular and what if he offered you the excitement of youth and adventures and a way out of boring society life and all without having to actually give up your status as a gentleman so you could have the best of both worlds) and in a way sherlock holmes is a fantasy (what if someone never got tired of you despite your various strange habits and mood swings and instead of simply tolerating you they genuinely liked you and what if you didn’t have to live alone forever and what if you never had to give up doing the things you love) and of course there’s the most fantastical part of it all (what if you could afford london housing prices)

I was talking about Sherlock Holmes with my cool weird 42 year old coworker the other day and he said that he had read other works by ACD but not any Sherlock Holmes. ACD is smiling down from heaven on his one and only true fan.

#acd sherlock #arthur conan doyle #acd holmes #acd watson #acd canon #I don't remember which book he read sorry #but he did say that it was pretty good so there's that I guess #I hope acd rests easy knowing that someone cares about the other things he wrote

The plot of A Scandal in Bohemia is Irene Adler orchestrating an elaborate escape to get away from her abusive ex (the king hires people to stalk her, confront her, break into her home, steal from her, etc.). AND SHE ESCAPES! SHE'S FREE!

So every time an adaptation includes her as a criminal, love interest, or femme fatale who loses to Holmes it's not just missing the point, it's genuinely so fucking disrespectful.
