Summer 2021 Holmestice Roundup
Jun. 26th, 2021 04:37 pmBelated, reveals were nearly a week ago, but I don't have my shit together, so here we go better late than never!
Master List
Astounding! Nearly 60 works created in nearly 20 different Holmes universes: fic, art, vids, podfics!
I received the spectacular The Adventure of the Three Gay Bowls by![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
sanguinity!
In the verse of Larry Townsend's extremely raunchy The Sexual Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Redeems one of the worst (IMO) canon stories, fixes TSAfSH's near-total lack of women (understandable because Townsend wasn't into that but one does wonder what the ladies get up to) and leans into the style with absolute perfection. Sanguinity also says there's some Patrick Califia influence in the f/f segment and I can totally see that.
I think I threw at least a few people off the guessing track because I didn't write either ACD or BBC this round.
I wrote Rulers Make Bad Lovers fordeelaundry, in the Watson and Holmes comic 'verse. Features Mrs Hudson's jazz lore, Holmes' violin, H/W romance, and a casefic based on "Beryl Coronet."
Verse: Watson and Holmes (comic)
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock Holmes/Jon Watson, Mrs Hudson, others
Rating: T
Word Count: 5644
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Canon-Typical Racism
Tags: Casefic, romance, music
Summary: S. Holmes and Jon Watson haven’t been living together in their Harlem share for very long, but there is definitely something building between them. Mrs. Hudson knows it before they do. They’ve had high-stakes life and death cases before - but it’s a low-stakes case that allows them the time to open up. It only involves averting a nasty international incident.
And as a treat forgraycardinal, the first and so far only fic on AO3 based on Esther M. Friesner's 1980s fantasy novel Druid's Blood:
Albion's Seed
Verse: Druid’s Blood - Esther M. Friesner
Characters/Pairings: John H. Weston/Queen Victoria, Brihtric Donne/Ada Lovelace, John H. Weston & Brihtric Donne ride-or-die friendship and maybe more in the future, someday
Rating: T
Warnings: Reference to Canon Infidelity
Summary: A British ruler who moonlights as a doctor and a writer pens a letter to a muse who supported him when he was no one, to tell him that he’s welcome and needed at home.

This has quickly become my favorite fest and by all means, go read/watch/look at/listen to and otherwise enjoy all the great works
