Oh, please. I know the original stories like the back of my hand and RDJ is NOTHING like canon Holmes as far as I can see. Nor is Cumberbatch, can't comment on Miller.

[(Anonymous)]

I completely agree that RDJ is nothing like canon Holmes in terms of personality or appearance, but please don't make me laugh with this "back of your hand" stuff -- I've read your fanfic and you either don't know jack about canon Holmes's personality, demeanor, mannerisms, attitudes towards any number of subjects, approach to emotional matters, or way of speaking; or if you do know, you unfortunately can't translate it into your writing to save your life.

Not that your fanfic is truly bad, mind -- apart from the show-offily "Victorian", more-flowery-than-Oscar Wilde-esque prose and dialogue style that is absolutely nothing like Doyle's (or Watson's, or Holmes's), you at least have some resistance to stereotypes, some sense of maturity and emotional realism and respect for the nuances of personal impact of canon events, and a non-smug sense of humor, which is way more than I can say for a lot of fanfic writers, especially shippers, in this fandom. But like the back of your hand? You'd better get out your stories and re-read.

Getting personal is rather low, anon.

It clearly makes them feel very good so, y'know, glad to be of help. Sigh.

Well, thanks for that.

[tweedisgood]

You could send f/b non-anon you know - I listen. And I never claim that my fic is canon. It's fic. That's the point.

I DO know the stories very well, though, and re-read them often. So laugh away, if it makes you happy. But you are wrong on that score.
