Sherlock Headcanon

Dear God. What is it like in your funny little brains? It must be so boring. var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-30201689-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s); })();

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

All,

As the dozens of people filling the ask box in the last few months have noted, we've not posted any new content lately. 

After three years, nine episodes, and thousands of headcanon we're going to close submissions. We appreciate all of the support you've given us as your mods and all of the laughs we've shared but right now, our lives/work/other interests have taken priority. We don't want to only half-ass this blog or simply fade out without saying goodbye and thank you. For a blog we started on the sofa while avoiding finals during college this got a lot bigger than we ever thought it would. We've had a blast and that's down to you all and your amazing, creative ideas! 

We don't want to say this is goodbye forever, we're definitely not going to delete. Maybe if we go to a convention or have new episodes we'll be inspired to start up again for a bit. But for now, the ask box is closed. 

Cheers,

Kels and Duke x

In honor of #LoveWins, we’re excited to share a sampling of programming from GridLOCK DC 2015- a Sherlock Holmes fan event right in our nation’s capital! Very excited for a second year of Holmesian fun.

Edit: we’re pleased to say couldntpossiblycomment will be joining us on two of these lovely panels!

Other related panels include:

  • Trans Issues in Fandom
  • No Commies and No Queers: Exploring Queerness and Espionage in Media
  • Some reviewers have compared the energy of BBC Sherlock to that of a spy movie, and spying elements are pervasive, from Mycroft’s entire existence to tropes like investigation, disguising yourself to break into a military base, and more. How do spy stories treat queerness? Topics of potential exploration include queerness-because-required-by-job vs. innate queerness in spies, queerness and betrayal (especially in the “untrustworthy bisexual” trope as explored in, for instance, TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY), queerness and masculinity (as seen in the hints of queerness around the traditionally macho James Bond inSKYFALL and the somewhat camp mannerisms of Bondian stand-in Harry Hart in recent blockbuster KINGSMAN), the parallels between spying and queerness (having multiple fronts to show to the world, living in an under-the-table manner, etc), queer spies as heroes and queer spies as antagonists/villains, and more.
