YANA, bb. *sigh*

Let us share our purist tears, anon. I'm sad that the movie didn't explore more than one or two of Holmes' weakness- I read a beautiful story about Holmes telling Watson about the consolations in the sky, which was TOTALLY RUINED by the little ACD inside of me, who raeg'd because of the discussion Holmes and Watson have inside ASIS about the solar system.

ASIS?

A Study in Scarlet

I hate to break it to you, anon, but ACD's canon is full of internal contradictions. Where was Watson wounded again? How many times was he married?

For a guy who, according to A Study in Scarlet, knows nothing about anything except detection, Holmes sure is knowledgeable about music, throws a lot of literary allusions into his conversation, etc. etc.

And since we're being pedantic, I believe you mean "constellations." Although "consolations in the sky" is a rather lovely phrase.

Really? I got the feeling that his obsession with Irene never translated into sexual attraction.

Me too. Although I did get the impression that she would have been really happy to take advantage of any small hint that he was interested.

OP, go on over to the kinkmeme and ask for Asexual Holmes -- I'm willing to bet that you aren't the only one who wants it. (Mygod, if you'd seen some of the things folks have asked for you'd be certain of it.)

In the movie, at least, there was a scene where he somehow ended up naked and handcuffed to a bed. It's not definitive, but yeah...

Dear Anon OP, ITA. SO AGREE. If you weren't anon, I would friend you on the spot.

There was already tons of smut before the movie though. The movie might bring in a fresh batch, so to speak, but Holmes/Watson slash is hardly anything new.

& I wouldn't call Irene a "love interest" so much as a girl with a crush and yes, Holmes was fascinated by her, but it read to me as completely nonsexual-- of course YMMV.

You know, your interpretation of canon =/= canon. While Holmes as an asexual is a perfectly reasonable interpretation of canon, his sexuality is never specifically confirmed. We can probably assume that he was celibate for much of the time that the books covered (not all of it because there was the period during which he was 'dead' that we know less about), but it doesn't automatically follow that he is asexual. We can't even say for sure he was celibate - just that the narrator either does not know of any relationships that Holmes has or chooses not to mention them.

While I think it's highly unlikely, Holmes could have been spending his free time working his way through the population of London, maybe even three or four at a time ...

Particularly if you ship Holmes/Watson, somehow I doubt Watson would be advertising their sexual shenanigans in a public forum in the late 19th century. :P

Well, all the smut generated from this makes me happy. In my pants. So there.

well said

These things usually go in cycles. It's the first flush now, which means loads of kink memes and short fic which are conducive to smut. Give it a while, and longer, character-driven pieces will be part of the fandom as well.

(Not that smut can't be character-driven, but you know...)

I can't wait for the longer fic.

Are you actually saying that giving Holmes a FEMALE love interest has changed people's perceptions of him and that's why there's all this Holmes/Watson smut going around? Because as far as actual Holmes/Irene stuff I have seen next to nothing so far (Watson/Irene, somehow, actually seems to be more popular, though still marginally compared to all the slash).

Also, more importantly, Holmes/Watson has been around A LONG TIME before Holmes was ever presented as a more sexualized character in any kind of adaptation.

Really? I feel like I'm swamped with Irene/Holmes fic.

Different perceptions for different people.

I completely agree with this.

I was you, Anon! At least, up until the smut bit. That's kind of N/A to me, since I'm one of those people who Rule 35s stuff that Rule 34 fails for. ^^;

I'm not too afraid of the smut. BRING IT ON, BABEH. LET'S SEE WHAT RULE 34 CAN DISH OUT BESIDES VANILLA HOLMES/WATSON. >:3

LOL That said...I'm not a PWP fan in Holmes fandom, either. ^^;

This community is called fandomsecrets. not fandommoviereviews.

also seriously, cry moar.

Why were you 'raging' at RDJ being cast as Holmes? He's an excellent actor...

Personally in the comm. I run-

sherlock2009, there has been the delicious slashy smut fics, but then there have also been a large number of gen fics inspired by the movie.. many of which are excellent and focus on their friendship. I'd say keep letting the fandom grow before you get convinced there is only going to be mass amount of Holmes/Watson smut churned out (not like there isn't already from before this movie!!)

i remember when people raged when RDJ was cast as Tony Stark (i admit that i was one of the people who shook my head in disbelief with that casting too). he just seems to bring it on but when the finished product is out, he wins the detractors over and then some.

Welcome to Livejournal :( :(

It's not just a Holmes thing. It's that people smut up everything here. I mean, that's cool if it floats your boat, but I've never had the energy to get involved in LJ fandom because it's way too porny. Again, no problem with porn in principle, but I don't feel comfortable enjoying famdon that way.
