Sherlock Holmes - Blog Posts
“His hands were invariably blotted with ink and stained with chemicals, yet he was possessed of extraordinary delicacy of touch, as I frequently had occasion to observe.”
I often think about Holmes learning not to cry in his youth by pouring all that pent up fury, anguish, and despair that the world was not made for boys like him into his violin.
How long did it take Watson to realize that the occasional haunting notes drifting up to his room at night between recognizable tunes were tears.
Watson stop LOOKING AT HIM LIKE THAT you are in PUBLIC
Watson is going to his club to see friends and Holmes is going to stay home and think about obscure types of poisons
(edited to add the time lapse video because I think it's cute, I wanted to draw Watson kissing Holmes's hand but had to find the pose from there and then figure out how the fuck to draw a chair)
“It was worth a wound–it was worth many wounds–”
- Sherlock Holmes, the Adventure of the Three Garridebs
Full text and individual pages under cut:
In an instant he had whisked out a revolver from his breast and had fired two shots. I felt a sudden hot sear as if a red-hot iron had been pressed to my thigh. There was a crash as Holmes’s pistol came down on the man’s head. I had a vision of him sprawling upon the floor with blood running down his face while Holmes rummaged him for weapons. Then my friend’s wiry arms were round me, and he was leading me to a chair.
“You’re not hurt, Watson? For God’s sake, say that you are not hurt!”
It was worth a wound–it was worth many wounds–to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation.
“It’s nothing, Holmes. It’s a mere scratch.”
He had ripped up my trousers with his pocket-knife.
“You are right,” he cried with an immense sigh of relief. “It is quite superficial.” His face set like flint as he glared at our prisoner, who was sitting up with a dazed face. “By the Lord, it is as well for you. If you had killed Watson, you would not have got out of this room alive. Now, sir, what have you to say for yourself?”
“…What can I do, Holmes? Of course, it was that damned fellow who set them on. I'll go and thrash the hide off him if you give the word.” - The Illustrious Client “You are right,” he cried with an immense sigh of relief. “It is quite superficial.” His face set like flint as he glared at our prisoner, who was sitting up with a dazed face. “By the Lord, it is as well for you. If you had killed Watson, you would not have got out of this room alive." - The Three Garridebs

My ovaries are exploding since 2012
something I love about Sherlock & co is that you don’t doubt the love that Sherlock and John have for each other. Not even in a romantic way, they love each other clearly, and while I love jonklock/johnlock, I’m totally fine if they aren’t canon in this rendition because it’s clear that they care for each other
January 2023 started interestingly
*Sherlock gives case advice for Enola*
Enola: I'll make sure to write that down-
Sherlock: Write down courting Tewkesbury while you're at it.
Enola:
How it started & how it's going (✿◠‿◠)

I feel like a lot of people miss the point of Sherlock's charging-port-deduction when they poke fun at it.
Now, I'm not saying he's right or some genius (or that you shouldn't poke fun at the deduction), I'm just saying that the point of this specific observation was misunderstood.
Because yes, we all try to plug our phones in in the dark or without looking and miss the port a few times. But not hard enough to leave scratches in the metal. When I look at my charging port, there are no scratches there, because I use the appropriate amount of force when plugging in my phone, and I think most of you do, too.
However, when you're completely drunk, there isn't really an 'appropriate amount of force.' You will jam your charger into the metal around your phone port hard enough to leave visible scratches.
It wasn't that the phone's user missed the port; it was that they missed the port with enough excessive force to scratch the phone.
(Which, of course, doesn't even necessarily mean 'alcoholic'; it could just be someone with difficulty with fine motor skills, or who misjudges how much force they need for things, or wasn't wearing their glasses and got very frustrated trying to plug in their phone, or any variety of other scenarios)
This was a birthday gift for a friend. Sherlock’s bored whilst John has discovered something from the final frontier :p
Kinda crazy how BBC Sherlock’s main “superpower” was googling quickly

Henley Monday -
Happy day everyone! I'll make this short and sweet. This is Robert Downey Jr mugging the shit out of the camera in a henley and a blazer and a freaking scarf because Robert Downey Jr is elegant and classy AF. GET ON HIS LEVEL!
Throwback Thursday -
TBT to that one time that Benedict Cumberbatch wore a SHERLOCK HEMLOCK T-SHIRT somewhere in public. Sometimes I worry when we idolize certain celebrities that they take themselves so seriously they don't have any sense of humor about it. This picture is empirical proof that this is not the case with Bramblewood Crumplepants. What a good old sport.

Ilustración que hice como portada para el cómic de este año del Garaxe Hermético. Contiene cuatro casos de Sherlock Holmes de 20 páginas cada uno, realizados por todos los alumnos de la escuela. ¡Con suerte saldrá para Viñetas desde o Atántico!
Illustration I did for the cover of the Garaxe Hermetico´s comic of this year. It contains four Sherlock Holmes cases (20 pages each) made by all of the school students together. Hopefully it´ll be released for Viñetas desde o Atlántico!
He said nothing. Very sarcastically.
