Fanbinding: etothepii Sherlock trio

Projects 46-48, Binds 64-67, and Binderary Books #s 5,6,&7 Asteroidea (Series) by etothepii Sic Gorgiamus Allos Subjectatos Nunc (Series)  by etothepii Things you don’t tell me (Series) by etothepii Completed: February 14&15, 2026 Size:  Quarto.  (16,253 words, 136 pages) (20,213 words, 163 pages) (23,174 words, 186 pages)

A trilogy of Sherlock quartos with three stories each.  I distinctly remember reading these fics back on LiveJournal and was bracing myself to try to figure out how to harvest/format from Dreamwidth when I discovered they had been posted to AO3 as well.  Happy days.  Highly recommend, especially if you like crossovers.  The His Dark Materials fusion is delightfully odd and the addition of the Addams family to the Sherlock universe is the perfect explanation for how even keeled Watson can be. Not too much to say about the typesets.  They are meant to look as similar as possible, all using the same fonts and formatting (Bell MT for body and Poor Richard for titles/headers if you’re interested in that minutiae).  I waffled for ages about whether to do the set as quartos or octavos.  Wordcount-wise the smaller size may have made more sense, but I wanted something a little taller, if slimmer, on my shelves.

The aesthetics of the binds themselves were determined by finds at my local creative re-use store when I stumbled upon a pack of fairly plain paper from the early 2010s and a partially used pad of decorative cardstock.  The single sheets made the perfect coordinating set of endpapers for the trio.

Johnlock Love Letters #2073

Sherlock is asexual. John is not. Possibly, Sherlock should have told him this before they had sex.

just reread etothepii’s Seems So Easy for Everybody Else. Wonderful portrayal of the Holmes family, and of the relationship between Sherlock and Mycroft. (Also, a peek into Greg and Sherlock’s relationship!)

Keep in mind that this fic was published in 2011.

John gets turned into a werewolf during Afghanistan, and it sucks, but then he moves in with another werewolf, and it gets better.

Some of you may remember Animorphs, a series which was all fun animal transformations on the surface and all war crimes and child soldiers when you got deeper. It's been one of my favorite series my whole life, and so I periodically search AO3 and the trash fire that is FF.net for new fanfic, hoping that someone will someday write me the fix-it fic of my dreams. Though I haven't yet found that, I have discovered that as our civil rights dialogue has advanced, particularly online, more and more fanfiction writers have been applying it to their fanfic. And Animorphs, which was about a multicultural and multiethnic group of kids working together to save humankind from alien invaders, is a particularly meaningful story to which to apply some of this social justice. 

When Animorphs was written in the late 90s, Western society's understanding of trans issues was fairly low (or nonexistent). Now, though, there are more trans people out in the public eye than ever, and subsequently, people are slowly starting to believe that there can and should be trans characters in fiction as well. It's a long road to more actual canon representation, but in the meantime, no one can stop anyone from having all the trans headcanons they want. Though today's fanfic is short, it's a fantastic example of what I'm talking about.

Trigger warning for body dysmorphia and internalized transphobia after the jump.

"Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc. It's the family motto." "What does it mean?" "We gladly feast on those who would subdue us." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - This series is a fantastic crossover with The Addams Family, in which John is related to the Addams and Sherlock is oblivious. It's such a clever AU, I recommend reading all three fics!
