He likely did! The Crimean War was part of the anglo-afghan wars;
I'm just referring to the fact that him and Holmes both live until after the first world war, which *could* mean that he fought in it, but @amypihcs does have a point, he was pretty old at that point and I'm not sure where the British military drew the lines in terms of age for their army tbh
Do you guys ever just remember that Watson had to fight in the First World War?
As much as I've got to admit that I'm lowkey very fond of this detail, it still doesn't make any sense to me. I've looked it up and V.R. is apparently supposed to stand for Victoria Regina, the queen during Sherlock Holmes' time
But Sherlock isn't interested in politics at all. Why would he be patriotic enough to shoot the queen's initials into his walls?? Maybe it's just something random cause he didn't have anything better to use instead, but I doubt that the queen would be of enough significance for him to even use it randomlyš§ I mean why would Sherlock feel the need to pay homage to her?
A cosy point and click adventure game lovingly inspired by the Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle!
It is the 1920s, and in a sleepy Sussex village, beekeeper and former world's greatest detective Sherlock Holmes is trying to arrange a pleasant clifftop picnic for his lifelong companion Dr Watson. The only problem is that a series of mysteries keep getting in the way!
With a little launch discount!
Give me some Star Trek character doodle requests in my asks please, maybe no specific actions and more just characters you'd like to see me doodle please I wanna do some of that rnš
(Sherlock Holmes and such would be fine too btw, but I'm looking to figure out Star Trek some more rn)
I've watched Star Trek SNW, TNG and the 2009 movies, but feel free to request whatever if you want lol
In the game Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One by Frogwares, we can discover that Sherlock and Jon had put together a play for Hamlet with some other kids behind the Legacy Theatre when they were kids on Cordona (the island that the game is set on, they lived there with Sherlock's mom, her doctor and Mycroft when Sherlock was 10 until his mother died, which is basically the time and the place we're exploring and discovering new truths about during the story-relevant quests) He did this because he wanted to do a play but the man who owned the theatre didn't like children if I remember correctly, their Hamlet was so good that people had started gathering around them and the director came outside once the play was over to congratulate them on the good play and welcomed them into the theatre
Now this isn't necessarily some universal canon Sherlock or something, but I love this game and thought this was worth sharing :]
If Mycroft participated in theatre, it stands to reason Sherlock did too.Ā At least he took classes.Ā No one fakes all those personalities and cries on cue the way he does without training.
Now Iām envisioning them doing stuff like improv exercises where they have to pretend to be a bear stuck in a traffic jam or something.
Picked up crocheting purely because of a neat Connor pattern I saw on Etsy and got the urge to make it, so now I've been working on this since yesterday and am attempting crochet for the second time ever (the first time my best friend and I gave up at some point because I kept doing something wrong and we couldn't figure out what it was [I think it was just simple line stuff]) so this is my very first actual crochet project and I dare say it's been going relatively/quite wellš
incoming !DBH SPOILERS! TW: concentration camp
I mostly want to mention that 1. Iām glad I managed to play Markus in a consequently pacifist way, love that guy 2. Iām glad I managed to have Connor become deviant while having a stable friendship with Hank and 3. Kara wasnāt as lucky in my playthrough. She ended up in a camp with Alice, while Luther had died at Roseās house. The camps and their obvious references to world war 2 were devastating to see them go through, as someone who has learned about these events multiple times throughout my school life and who has visited two of the camps that still stand as memorials, reminders and informative sites due to the fact that Iām German, seeing Kara and Alice be stripped of their identity and forced to look less/not human to be degraded and most likely easier to kill, seeing the lifeless bodies being loaded onto trucks, seeing the two of them stand in these lines without any clothes despite Alice already freezing during winter, Kara trying desperately to get back to Alice while having to obey the guards enough to not get killed on-sight before theyād both be forced to walk into the machine and end up dead anyway together. It was a cruel thing to watch and a tragic way to end their story. Iām very happy with my first endings though, because this may be one of the most intriguing ways this game could end for me, Iām definitely gonna replay some of it to see some alternative endings though, for example RK-900 didnāt appear at all in my game, didnāt even know that was possible and Kara, Alice and Luther deserve their happy ending in Canada being a family of three, I really hope thatāll be possible on my next attempt
I just finished Detroit Become Human for the first time and Iām in desperate need to talk about it
I am getting wayyy too overexcited about them being at Madame Tussaud's and John mentioning how close it is to their flat BECAUSE I WENT THERE RIGHT AFTER HAVING VISITED THE SHERLOCK HOLMES MUSEUM IN BAKER STREET LAST FALL :D The Sherlock Holmes statue is actually RIGHT down the street from Madame Tussaud's btw like you can actually see it from there iircš¤ so that's a fun detail that they of course can't see haha
The Enola Holmes wax figure also probably isn't there lol, I do wonder if Benedict Cumberbatch is still there since Sherlock was the role that first actually got him recognition? Iirc? That's what someone told me once so I wouldn't put my hand into the fire for it but y'know, he has had some great other roles since then though so it's very very possible he's still there 𦫠Ahhh they'd be able to see the Ncuti Gatwa wax figure there that's so awesomeš
Isn't Jack the Ripper also in the horror section?
The funniest part about this for me is how John is like "idk why we didn't go here earlier, it's so closeby" and the only reason we went there was because it was right on the way when we visited the statue after having seen Bakerstreet like yeah it is pretty closeby and the only reason I've been to Madame Tussaud's in the first place lmaoš
Ā āOh yeah Iād totally be able to resist the dark sideā says guy who canāt even resist leaning back on a chair
Made a typo while talking to @lindin-doodles so naturally this exists now
So there's a theory that Spock is a descendent of Sherlock Jolmes/ Arthur Conan Doyle, so maybe like a doodle of spock in Sherlocks classic outfit or vice versa? P.s I love your art!
this is such a great request thank you so much for requesting it Anon, I tried to get *something* out of these doodles but I'm not 100% satisfied yet so I might have to work on similar ideas some more, oh noooo/sar/pos
I'm also a big fan of this theory (unfortunately my generalized Holmes isn't looking much like Holmes rn lol sorry about thatš)
P.s thank you :D I'm very glad you do, whoever you are
