Fading to black but it’s just for complicated action scenes while all the sex scenes are written in full

Wow! Great questions for Watson to include in this narrative where he works through his feelings about Holmes faking his death!

Let Sherlock Holmes host Cheaters

Now that he and Lestrade are on good terms, Watson has moved on to insulting someone else’s face in an extremely bitchy manner

My bet is this is also a post-Hiatus thing. Lestrade was probably nice to Watson after Final Problem so Watson added in some compliments that Lestrade was NOT getting before when Watson called him rat-faced

Dr Watson asking for orders, fork found in kitchen

Watson, you keep saying this but he laughs all the time

Bodice Ripper type set up sneaking around the Hall after hours with a bedroom candle and then all they do is solve the case 🙄

One of my favorite details in HOUND is these bits from the start and end of the book where you can tell Holmes and Watson have been having this argument for years

Holmes: [looks at something] Watson: They should make a statue of him, he is the greatest art in this gallery

"My dear Watson, you were born to be a man of action. Your instinct is always to do something energetic.

We, our 🥰

Watson being dramatic as hell (positive) "The brute! The brute!" I cried with clenched hands. It could only come from the lonely abode of [SPOILER]. With a bitter curse I shook my fist at it as I gazed.

YOU lured him out here with your convoluted smoke and mirrors plan you asshole

You can judge a Sherlock Holmes adaptation based solely on if he would stomp his feet like a little kid when a case goes wrong.

They’ve been apart a few chapters I forgot how insufferable Watson is around his husband

[Hearing someone be murdered] “Damn you are listening real swole. You reacted very fit. Big strong noticer.”

Okay it’s very cute they once they meet up again Holmes cannot go back to their separate paths. Velcro friendship

Watson you can ask for a little more then that, have some pride

Everything in this scene is about the Hiatus and this specifically is about Watson publishing 24 stories memorializing a living guy.

(Imagine me typing this the angriest I’ve ever been) He actually already did that, in a storm, on a moor people frequently get lost and injured on, because you *didn’t tell him you were here.*

Here is my favorite thing about Hound of the Baskervilles: Holmes would have solved this case in a day if he had visited Baskervilles Hall because there is a portrait with a picture of the killer and his motive right on the fucking wall. His super complicated plan delayed him weeks.

Buddy, leaving Watson unattended puts him in way more danger than any murder. He’s been chasing Selden, he’s been out in storms, he’s been trying to follow Stapleton to the middle of the grimpen mire

"My dear fellow, you have been invaluable to me in this as in many other cases,” Holmes, Hound of the Baskervilles

I’m 100% certain that this is the fight they had in Empty House but Watson didn’t feel able to publish in Empty House.

Watson recognized your shadow on the foggy moors you human garbage. He sensed you were here and wandered through storms you piece of shit. Learn his footprints if you really love him 😡

It’s so manipulative Doyle published this scene after the fans have had Holmes dead for a decade and they have no idea Empty House is coming. Yeah, Watson sure WOULD be glad to see Holmes again, but he’s DEAD 🙃

Holmes having no facial hair after weeks living in a cave is all the proof I need that he’s a trans man. Also, everything about him, come on.

Watson pausing to let us know how handsome and charming Holmes looked

Watson simply does not want to be in charge of a case! He wants Holmes to come save him

Back on hound of the Baskervilles. I promise I read book faster when I’m not tweeting them

"Watson, you have never yet recognized my merits as a housekeeper." - Holmes, desperate for Watson to notice how good of a househusband he could be

got this beautiful hmmk comm from coda 🥺🥺 thank you for so much once again I'm so pleased 🫶

That new Guy Ritchie 'Young Sherlock' show queercodes the heck out of Sherlock Holmes. Or rather, I don't think it really counts as queercoding anymore when the show has him kiss a woman and then ask her what he's supposed to feel.

Thought Young Sherlock was doing tragic toxic yaoi with Holmes/Moriarty, but they’re doing a straight guy/gay guy codependent friendship which is much more likely to end with one of them getting tossed off a waterfall

Young Sherlock post: incredible choice that the pretty girl went right for Moriarty and the mustachioed buff guy went right for Holmes

I am not immune to toxic yaoi (Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty from Young Sherlock)

Young Sherlock: In defense of replacing Watson with Moriarty as his partner 1. Moriarty doing half the deductions allows the show to provide 100% of the clever deductions viewers expect while keeping teen Holmes only at 50% power 2. And this is important: Watson wouldn’t have let this happen

何もかも間に合ってない猫の日ホムワト

Young Sherlock time!

間に合って無さすぎる

Watson is being haunted by Holmes! He’s felt it this whole time! The sense of something destined and inescapable

Another entry to “Hound of the Baskervilles is about the Hiatus” The series never gets into what Holmes went through living off the grid for 3 years, so Hound gives us a small window into how Holmes could survive in a cave for weeks. This is probably how he lived most of his traveling years.

Definitely a love story. A grand romance for the ages. This is why the characters will never fade.The mysteries are cool but these two are the heart of the canon.

Watson, coming out with his first published story in a decade: “Hey, The Strand Readers! What’s up? Long time no see! Did I ever tell you guys that in my personal diary I refer to Sherlock Holmes as ‘my master?’”

Poor Dr Watson came in so strong with a bluff and then immediately clarified that no he has no information or evidence so just please tell him the clues he needs
