I can’t wait for Enola Holmes 3 because I absolutely need a scene with Tewkesbury and the one and only Dr. John Watson make conversation and comment on the Holmes siblings they love very much just go into monologue and ramble as they unravel the mystery.
they’re such brilliant weirdos and they love them so very much

Dr. John H. Watson M.D. (sorry, Sherlock) being assaulted by a flock of mildly feral ducks in the middle of Regent’s Park is something that I did not know I needed in my life.
Thank you, Sherlock & Co., for your service.

I saw people talking about how medieval beekeepers and plague doctors are similar and should smooch so it got a new kind of fantasy au bubbling in my head. (Well, maybe not fantasy, just medieval)
TFW you're a doctor in love with the quirky beekeeper who gives you herbs for medicines.
I'd love to draw more but I TOTALLY ran out of ideas haha, unless 👀

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson having a nice Christmas supper together. I love how inseparable these two are. And I love that in Neil Gaiman's The Case of Death and Honey it's heavily implied that Sherlock made Watson immortal so they could spend eternity as the duo that they are.

Sherlock Holmes explaining, or grumbling, about why John Watson's writing dismays him, canon:
"To the man who loves art for its own sake," remarked Sherlock Holmes, tossing aside the advertisement sheet of the Daily Telegraph, "it is frequently in its least important and lowliest manifestations that the keenest pleasure is to be derived. It is pleasant to me to observe, Watson, that you have so far grasped this truth that in these little records of our cases which you have been good enough to draw up, and, I am bound to say, occasionally to embellish, you have given prominence not so much to the many causes celebres and sensational trials in which I have figured but rather to those incidents which may have been trivial in themselves, but which have given room for those faculties of deduction and of logical synthesis which I have made my special province."
"And yet," said I, smiling, "I cannot quite hold myself absolved from the charge of sensationalism which has been urged against my records."
"You have erred, perhaps," he observed, taking up a glowing cinder with the tongs and lighting with it the long cherry-wood pipe which was wont to replace his clay when he was in a disputatious rather than a meditative mood—"you have erred perhaps in attempting to put colour and life into each of your statements instead of confining yourself to the task of placing upon record that severe reasoning from cause to effect which is really the only notable feature about the thing."
"It seems to me that I have done you full justice in the matter," I remarked with some coldness, for I was repelled by the egotism which I had more than once observed to be a strong factor in my friend's singular character.
"No, it is not selfishness or conceit," said he, answering, as was his wont, my thoughts rather than my words. "If I claim full justice for my art, it is because it is an impersonal thing—a thing beyond myself. Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell. You have degraded what should have been a course of lectures into a series of tales."
Sherlock Holmes (...) emerged in no very sweet temper to lecture me upon my literary shortcomings.
"At the same time," he remarked after a pause, during which he had sat puffing at his long pipe and gazing down into the fire, "you can hardly be open to a charge of sensationalism, for out of these cases which you have been so kind as to interest yourself in, a fair proportion do not treat of crime, in its legal sense, at all. (...) But in avoiding the sensational, I fear that you may have bordered on the trivial."
"The end may have been so," I answered, "but the methods I hold to have been novel and of interest."
"Pshaw, my dear fellow, what do the public, the great unobservant public, can barely tell the difference (...) They do not care about the finer shades of analysis and deduction! But, indeed, if you are trivial, I cannot blame you, for the days of the great cases are past. Man, or at least criminal man, has lost all enterprise and originality”.
And
"I must admit, Watson, that you have some power of selection which atones for much which I deplore in your narratives. Your fatal habit of looking at everything from the point of view of a story instead of as a scientific exercise has ruined what might have been an instructive and even classical series of demonstrations. You slur over work of the utmost finesse and delicacy in order to dwell upon sensational details which may excite, but cannot possibly instruct, the reader.”
“Why do you not write them yourself?” I said, with some bitterness.
"I will, my dear Watson, I will. At present I am, as you know, fairly busy, but I propose to devote my declining years to the composition of a text-book which shall focus the whole art of detection into one volume".

Okay so you know how a month after John gets married, Sherlock gets a girlfriend? And it's shows how much he really knows about relationships because he tries to propose not even a month after meeting Janine?
But like imagine, Janine was in on it the whole time. Like you know, 2 weeks after the wedding, Janine gets a call from him and he's like "go on a date with me." And Janine's immediately like, "uhm,, I think this is for John,,,uh, do you want me to forward this to him?" Because, yeah, she knows. You can't make that love letter best man speech and expect no one to know. So sherlock explains it, why she's in a prime position and everything and she's like, "hmm okay what do I get in return?"
And he's like "didn't you just hear? Big diamond ring, very authentic, get you a cottage in the suburbs."
And she's like "hmmm,,, okay, let's go make your biyfriend jealous."
Cut scene to her in Sherlock's shirt coming out of Sherlock's room and joining him for bath and kissing him. She gets the footage of John's reactions later from Mycroft.
Bonus: the bath scene.
Janine: *standing on one corner* what's he doing now?
Sherlock: *completely submerged in the tub* how should I know?
Sherlock:...
Sherlock: making tea.
Sherlock: how did he react?
Sherlock: stop laughing!
Sherlock: and seriously, 'Sherl'? He's never going to let me live that down.
Janine: oh sherl

i watched Enola Holmes 2 and i want more but for now enjoy this:
but for now enjoy this:
Eudoria randomly disguised as a chap exploding that mailbox, she's living chaotically and we love to see it
Tewkesbury still going strong for change and progress, we love it
not Sherlock getting thrown out of a bar drunk and Enola runs into him
him getting back up was hilarious
221 Baker Street!! gods, i miss BBC's Sherlock, with John and Mrs. Hudson, and when Greg Lestrade was a good cop compared to this one (though i know nothing of the books Lestrade so who knows all i know is i love Greg to pieces, "Not my division!")
Sherlock drunkenly shushing Enola and falling back on his couch magnificently and just being chaos
all the Holmes' are chaotic, i wonder what Mycroft thinks of his family
"Why have you moved everything?" one paper on top of another paper that wasn't supposed to be on top it
"have you considered a flatmate?" YES JOHN WATSON YES
Enola's been watching Tewkes this entire time oh honey
"Is he looking back?" girl you are NOT being subtle
MORIARTY IS TEASING SHERLOCK WITH THIS DANCE SHIT I LOVE IT AND IM SCARED
IM REWATCHING AND AS SHERLOCK IS PUTTING TOGETHER THAT IT'S A DANCE IN COMES IN MIRA TROY TALKING ABOUT THE DANCING BEING AN ACT OH MY GOD THE PARALLELS
NOT TEWKESBURY BEING MORE INTERESTED IN THE PLANT AND ITS LEAVES INSTEAD OF DANCING OR MINGLING I LOVE IT
HE SNIFFS THE LEAVES
"You're a man when I tell you you're a man" im so glad they brought that back, i loved that line
not gonna lie, i really thought that after Enola gets arrested that Tewkes was gonna bring those hidden letters she gave him to Sherlock or smth but considering they never met before and he never heard Enola speak about him in a trusting way it makes sense the only person he'd trust the papers to would be Enola so he kept them, sounds about right
also, though im happy Sherlock asks for help from Edith and im happy to see Edith again, im quite sad we didn't get a scene between him and Eudoria.
perhaps the third film will center more amongst the entire Holmes family, that'd be an interesting dynamic to see as we've seen Enola sort of against her brothers with Mycroft being the head in charge but with Eudoria in Enola's corner and Sherlock now too the dynamic will be much more enjoyable
glad that Eudoria was aware of how independent Enola has gotten, which isn't a bad thing but when one stays alone too often and doesn't ask for help, it could be their downfall and just lonely in the end. bc its exactly her mother's teaching that's caused her to avoid any sort of companionship (or more) with Tewkesbury
"You escaped jail?!" oh Tewkes you gotta get used to this chaos with Enola, come on boy
Tewkes desperately trying to declare his feelings for Enola whilst she's uncovering the entire mystery
his little groan realizing she's being Enola again with a case
HE LOVES HER
SHE LOVES HIM
THIS MOVIE IS FEEDING US SO WELL
when Enola and Sherlock start fighting only to find it's each other and the just an annoyed, "You." bahahaha, i love it, true siblings right there
i've been wanting a scene with Tewkes and Sherlock for a while now, this movie is delivering well
"The Gods is the top row of the theater. Doesn't everyone know that?" pff i love Tewkes so much, never change little lord, never change
Enola's got the highest-class significant other of her siblings and it's showing
yo, you know what would be simply divine? Tewkes and John just commenting on how the Holmes just blank out and monologue as they figure out the case
i love that for Tewkesbury, in his perspective it was that memory of Enola telling him he's not rid of her yet and that gave him the strength to punch back, we love it
Enola and Tewkes hugging each other and checking each other's injuries and, "You were made to fight," only this time it's Enola telling Tewkes and i love it and i love them
man, their kids are gonna have the weirdest names
MIRA TROY IS MORIARTY I KNEW HER NAME SOUNDED WEIRD I KNEW IT
AND I LOVE HER, SHE'S SO FUN
"Pay what you can," i love that Enola takes on cases for people that need it whilst Sherlock will just occupy himself with the hoity-toity people
i'd love to see the lower class community just come to love Enola, and Sherlock would need her help in getting them to talk bc they know Enola but they don't know Sherlock
TEWKES BROUGHT FLOWERS FOR HER AND THEY'RE GOING OUT TO WALK
Spreading Bellflowers being the flowers metaphor for Enola
"You're a nincompoop,"
"And you're a coward."
they're in love, you're honour
NOT ENOLA SETTING UP HER BROTHER WITH A HANDSOME DOCTOR FOR A FLATMATE DR. JOHN WATSON PLAYED BY HAMISH PATEL BOY I LOVED YOU IN YESTERDAY HOW DARE YOU COME BACK AND INSTALL THESE EMOTIONS IN ME I LOVE IT I LOVE ALL OF IT

Watson: “D’you wanna come for a walk?”
Sherlock: “…A walk.”
Watson: “Yeah. ‘Round Regent’s Park with me and Archie.”
Sherlock: “Can I wear sunglasses and ear defenders?”
Watson: “You can wear whatever you want, mate.”
Sherlock: “Fine.”

"It was late when my friend returned, and I could see by a glance at his haggard and anxious face that the high hopes with which he had started had not been fulfilled. For an hour he droned away upon his violin, endeavoring to soothe his own ruffled spirits. At last he flung down the instrument and plunged into a detailed account of his misadventures."
- The Adventure of the Norwood Builder by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Okay because it's not obvious- this is for the Frogwares game "Sherlock Holmes The Awakened". Basically- a cosmic horror/cthluhu centric mystery starring Holmes and Watson! It's fantastic and these doodles are actually based on my experience playing the game! In a few of these, John is my friends who joined me on a call to watch! It was great I had so much fun.
Now to clarify the first doodle- the reason I swapped the name to "AJ Raffles" is by the fact that like, Sherlock Holmes as a fictional character cannot exist if he's a real person! It's just a little thing that made me laugh lol.
Seriously though- this game was great I loved every minute. If you're worried about Frogwares bugginess, don't be, the remake is really easy to play and I had a great time.
