Chapter 14 - A Most Unsuitable Pastime for a Lady

So, I started this fic 10 years ago! I was bitten by a plot bunny when the teaser for the Abomminable Bride Christmas special was released. I started writing a version of Sherlock and Molly in the Victorian Era and surmised that Molly would have to masquerade as a man to be "our" Molly, predicting exactly how Moffitiss managed to write her into the episode.

This fic never left me. And I'm happy to say I am 99% complete. Each chapter between now and the end is written, just in need of some editing before posting.

So here's the deal, if there's anyone out there still reading this fic, all you need to do is post a comment and I will post the next chapter for you.

And if there isn't anyone else reading this fic, that's ok too. I've enjoyed seeing where this story ended up -- even if it's taken me a decade of stop-start (mostly stop!) writing to get there!

I am always blown away by the love of the Sherlolly community. No matter how long I may be away, I am always welcomed back so warmly.

Thank you so much to everyone who showed me love and shared encouragement about my fic update yesterday. I was starting to think that I was one of the few of us left, but now I see that the community is still alive, still keen for more Sherlolly goodness.

And so here's the second chapter in as many days. I hope you enjoy.

Sherlolly Fic Update : A most Unsuitable Passtime for a Lady

So, I've been updating!

Here's chapter 16, where in the present, Sherlock is on the case of the murder of Molly's husband. Whereas, in the past, Sherlock and Molly's relationship has developed into more than a simple work partnership.

Here's chapter 17, where in the present, John is confused about how well Sherlock is taking to his new neighbours - Molly and her son. Whereas in the past, Sherlock and Molly's domestic bliss is about to be interrupted.

Here's chapter 18, where in the present, I shamelessly borrow a scene from the original Milverton story from ACD canon, but with my own twist. Whereas in the past there is angst, lots of angst.

And then, there are three more chapters I posted today because at each chapter-break, there was so much angst that I felt guilty leaving you all hanging.

So we're at 21 chapters at this point, with a few more to go.

Thanks again for all who are reading along. Especially @mizjoely - your fics were the first I ever read in the fandom, your tumblr was the first I followed. It means so much to me that you're enjoying my fic!
