Do you guys ever just remember that Watson had to fight in the First World War?

“loosing someone to death and romance are equal tragedies”

Thank you. I will just go cry my eyes out now.

Do you ever think of Holmes alone at Baker Street after Watson's marriage and. And. And Watson's things are gone. Watson is gone, and there is just this aching gap around Holmes in the flat. The dust has not yet covered the space on the shelf where Watson's books used to be. Half of Holmes's home is gone, and he cannot even run his finger along the edge of the pain because there will only be one plate on the breakfast table tomorrow (and tomorrow and tomorrow), but you can't cut yourself on empty space.

Mini Watson bcs why not

“‘You're not hurt, Watson? For God's sake, say that you are not hurt!’ It was worth a wound -- it was worth many wounds -- to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation.”

“Watson. Come at once if convenient. If inconvenient, come all the same.” - Sherlock Holmes (Adventure of the Creeping Man, Arthur Conan Doyle)

i don't know why but this quote just hits me in the feels. "if inconvenient, come all the same."

maybe love is about finding your way to each other even when it's inconvenient.

After our heart, singular. Awwww so precious 🥰. See, as an American, I would have said "after our own hearts"--plural, two people with two separate hearts. I don't know if it's a British thing, his using heart in the singular or if it's a wonderful way for Arthur Conan Doyle to emphasize the intimate closeness of Holmes and his Watson, but either way I love it 🩷🩷🩷

Um, Dr. Watson, you in a mood? 🤣

Me finding out just how huge the Holmes/Watson fandom is

Hello new friend group! ☺️

A simple art quote I made inspired by one of the sweetest and most romantic scenes I've ever read. ☺️

Two years ago I binge read every Sherlock Holmes story by Arthur Conan Doyle. Before I started the only things I knew was that Holmes was the detective, Watson was the doctor who worked for him, they were colleagues who solved cases when Sherlock was too baffled on his own, then they went their separate ways until Sherlock needed help again. I wasn't prepared for both of them living at 221B Baker Street, or the fact they spent nearly the entirety of their time together even after the last clue was discovered and the culprit apprehended, or how when John would vaguely try to settle down with a wife he'd return to Sherlock at any given moment. In short, I never expected it to be a love story, and I never would have guessed those two men would move into my heart to stay. 🥰
