Inktober 7 - intimidating
Redraw of Matt Ryan as John Constantine. What a difference a bit of practice makes, eh?
Progress from 2022 to 2024

Okay so hear me out
Piercings. And plenty. Ears include gauges (7/16ths. Not too big, not too small), industrial bar, daith, forward helix, all that good stuff. Facial piercing include snake bites, eyebrow, septum, a plain nose stud on one side, he considered dimple piercings but decided against them, and a tongue piercing (Sherlockâs personal favorite)
Tattoos. He has the chemical structure of chloroform on his shoulder because he thought it was Edgy, he has a Doctor Who themed sleeve because on the inside heâs a Soft Nerd, he has a couple fading stick-and-pokes from his teenage years that were really poor decisions, he has a calligraphy WSSH directly over his heart, he has the soundwave of Sherlock saying âI love you, John Watsonâ down his forearm, and heâs just started a backpiece of a completely blissed-out Sherlock after sex. (It makes Sherlock blush every time he sees it)
Concerts. When people see him theyâre all kinda like âpfft, whatâs this short guy gonna do?â and he tears. that. shit. up. (He âaccidentallyâ punched a guy in the pit because he called Sherlock a priss for standing off to the side. And he didnât even feel remotely sorry.) When Sherlock goes with him (which is getting more and more frequent) he always makes a show of taking his shirt off and giving it to him, giving him a kiss, and then returning to the pit. Needless to say, Sherlock loves that part.
Hair. He has the classic side shave but the top is always changing color. His personal favorite is a nice distinguished silver, but he always returns to a nice, deep blue because itâs Sherlockâs favorite.
Sherlock brought up getting a JHW tattoo over breakfast one morning and John nearly chokes on his toast. Seriously? Youâd want to? âObviously. You have my initials, why shouldnât I have yours?â John swallows whatâs in his mouth and leans over the table and kisses Sherlock firmly. They go later that day to Johnâs artist and, even though it was Sherlockâs idea, John can tell heâs nervous. John ends up holding his hand the whole time, running a hand through his hair saying baby itâs just three letters to which Sherlock replies âcoming from the man who, apparently, has no pain receptors in his body!â John kisses his hairline and smirks. When the tattoo heals, though, he loves to lavish kisses on it.
He always gets the comments that are like âyouâre going to regret thatâ âyouâre hairâs going to fall outâ etc etc but he always just smiles and says if I was going to regret it, I wouldnât have gotten them and continues walking down the street, his hand in Sherlockâs back pocket.
Once, at a concert, an embodiment of toxic masculinity calls him a f*g for his backpiece and PDA with Sherlock and before he can punch the guy in the face, the lead singer of the band on stage stops the show because he heard it and tossed the guy out. After the concert, he gives John free merch and a whole-hearted apology.
As they grow up, get married, all of that, they eventually adopt a little girl named Violet. When sheâs about four she turns to Sherlock and asks âPapa, why donât you have any pictures like Daddy?â to which he replies âI do, little bee, but just not as many. And mine has just as much importance as Daddyâs doâ When sheâs older and she sees the JHW on his chest, she smiles to herself. That is pretty important.
And to round this out, shortly after adopting Violet, John starts a sleeve on his other arm for her. It includes her birthday and date of adoption, bees (because like Sherlock she loves them) and, under Sherlockâs soundwave he has one of her saying âI love you, Daddyâ from her first day of school. That arm is certainly his favorite, if heâs honest with himself.
Thank you for talking at my ted. This turned out a lot longer than I thought it would. Enjoy for what it is.
