So as you might have noticed, I’ve been pretty quiet on the internet lately. This is because until mid next-week, I have Uni exams that are taking over my life. So I apologise to all those I’ve been ignoring, I love you lots!

Till I’m all finished, take a look at what my amazing flatmate Caitlin made me for my birthday! It’s a knitted lady Sherlock Holmes! Let’s all take a moment to appreciate the creative genius here.

The last post with Jim and a woman holding scalpels isn't a genderbend, I've seen it elsewhere and the woman is supposed to be Molly. 

Where… did you see it? I reblogged it straight from the artist when they were doing male/female pictures of the characters. Also, the description makes it pretty obvious that they’re the same person.

Seriously though, I’m extremely curious as to where this ‘elsewhere’ might be.

Visualising Research Sherlock Formula Social Experiment 1: Young Femlock Sherlock has taken a beaten. Sherlock is starting to realise having a great intellect doesnt always mean great friends. 

And before anyone asks, yes I am contemplating attempting a replica of the make up in the Final Problem. That’s weird isn’t it? It’s probably weird.
