The Adventures of Shirley Holmes, by Johanna Watson

[mutecornett]

There is so much right with the idea of a Sherlock Holmes double genderswap, right? Sherlock Holmes's misogyny makes much more sense as Shirley Holmes's bluestocking/early feminist impulse; Shirley Holmes's skill for disguise comes from needing access to places women can't go

I want to read it toooo. :( I'm just not sure that I want to write it, haha. But lesbian Sherlock Holmes is pretty tempting!

This is so beautiful and awesome. I love the colors and composition and style and the subject matter is just... yes. I love Waston's hair all perfectly styled and Holmes' hair all messy as she smokes her pipe and scans the paper.

Thank you so much!! Watson (esp Jude Law Watson) is pretty different as the model of Victorian femininity rather than Victorian masculinity, but I think she'd still be tidy and well-dressed and clean! And Holmes would still be a messy-haired slob. <3
