Holmes’s and Watson’s pet names

(How Holmes and Watson call each other)

Watson’s for Holmes

“My dear Holmes”: 16 times

“My companion”: over a hundred times (I’m refusing to count any further)

Holmes’s for Watson

“My dear Watson”: 94 times 

“My dear boy”: two times (this means exactly what it sounds like)

“My boy”: nine times 

“My dear doctor”: two times

“My Watson”: three times

There is an awful lot of possessive pronouns here, if you start to think about it…

Could they appear more married if they tried??

THE BLUE CARBUNCLE part 4 - part 1 - part 2 - part 3 - the end of this chapter. I was extremely grateful to be able to throw myself into drawing today, and I rushed to get it done because I know many of us are having a shitty time right now. I hope this can bring a little comfort or distraction. Watch out for each other and yourselves, my friends, and don't let them steal your joy.

The Blanched Soldier is next if you'd like to read along. This is in the Watson's Sketchbook series!

tiny bonus sketches below:

When they make Sherlock Holmes and Irene Norton née Adler have sexual tension I get so angry that steam comes out of my ears. First of all that woman has a lovely husband whom she risked her well-being and outsmarted royalty for. Second of all, she’s like Lana Del Rey to Sherlock Holmes. He keeps a photo of her in the way stan twitter has screenshots of their fav artists. This is not a heterosexual dynamic.

Think of me once in a while, take care…

tfw you’re doing some spying and forget that personal space is a thing and that your colleague is head over heels in love with you.

flatmates…friends…whatever you calling them

This is an old suggestion that I went back and drew because of my current art block 😅 I ended up going a little overboard but hey! It got me drawing so all is well! :}}} Thank you old anon for the suggestion!

--Also suggestions are currently closed! This is an old ask I dug up for my current art block :}}}
