I have doubts that [a femslash meme] would be very long-lived

(frozen comment) A Study in Honor, Claire O'Dell

[(Anonymous)]

I just read this and liked it quite a bit -- it was slow in parts, but I thought the author handled "queer black Holmes and Watson" well and the worldbuilding was fascinating. Bonus: Sara Holmes does seem to be ace, maybe. Any other nonnies here read it? What did you think?

Is it shippy and do you think the writer's going to make it romantic? I'm super here for the premise either way.

DA If you check out the comments on the Scalzi Big Idea piece, the author has commented that Holmes/Watson will not be a thing in the series.

u know this is a femslash meme and most ppl here are not going to consider potentially shippable characters being explicitly confirmed to be non-lgbt as a "bonus", right?

particularly historically, hmm idk what the word is i'm looking for, not gay icons but characters widely regarded as subtextually gay by lgbt ppl.

not a bonus.

3.1 Comments containing slurs (racial, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, etc.), including reclaimed slurs and jokes/memes, are subject to special scrutiny and may be frozen/deleted at mods' discretion.

8. Wank goes to the dedicated drama/wank thread in each post. This means non-vaguey fandom drama, any wank/drama/vent where people's names are named, gender/sexuality wank, racewank, anything that might be considered tumblr discourse, etc.


bold of you to assume you could sneak in a sexuality discourse opinion (outside of the wank thread, even) right after mods had to freeze a massive wankstorm about it. nope, not happening, I'm too tired to deal with that.

feel free to repost this without the "bonus: sara holmes does seem to be ace, maybe" comment and I'll leave it alone.
