Testing out new paper and pens, and I’ve wanted to try this for a while, because I do so love this quote.
I Like Detective Stories. And Detectives.
Well, allow me to introduce myself to you as an advocate of Ornamental Knowledge. You like the mind to be a neat machine, equipped to work efficiently, if narrowly, and with no extra bits or useless parts. I like the mind to be a dustbin of scraps of brilliant fabric, odd gems, worthless but fascinating curiosities, tinsel, quaint bits of carving, and a reasonable amount of healthy dirt. Shake the machine and it goes out of order; shake the dustbin and it adjusts itself beautifully to its new position.-Robertson Davies, Tempest-Tost
Just the usual fangirl geekery, with quite a high level of ridiculousness. You know, Doctor Who, Sherlock Holmes, Cabin Pressure, Frankenstein, science stuff, about a million books, a slightly high level of curiosity, and a Cheshire cat for good measure. I have no control over my enthusiasm. Oh, and sometimes I inflict my art on you. Sorry.
In the words of Neil Gaiman in Sandman: The weirdness has been getting worse.
Oh, and anyone who guesses who the writing lady in the sidebar image gets nothing in particular, but tell me if you know...
Currently sojourning in England, questing after the wild hedgehog. (Not really but sort of.)

Things Sherlock could have been, is, and wanted to be.
(Sorry for the terrible photo. I am scannerless.)
Your forgetting actor
Ah! I suppose I am. Although (and it is probably silly for me to go into this much detail over a silly doodle…) I did base it more off of what Mycroft says to John about Sherlock at the end of Scandal in Belgravia (“My brother has the mind of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a consulting detective. What might we then deduce about his heart?” and of course the infamous pirate line) then off of the canon.

I don’t know what this is. I do know that the choice of Sinnerman in that episode was brilliant, and I’m still fascinated by all the different ways it could be relevant to the story.
In which I was unwell, so I made a Sherlock with my favourite quote from the second series, only to discover that he appeared to be wearing a beanie hat. Will never be able to remove image of Sherlock with a small propeller on his head. Sigh. Artistic ability fail.
Further adventures in screenshots. For the fun, and the facial expression in the top one.
To go with these
Creepy Lestrade whose nose got messed up.
Um, yeah.

OOOOH YES.
THIS ONE IS NOW IN MY TOP 3.
This may be the sickest thing I’ve ever made. Sorry if this is just too gross. What can I say, I have a weird sense of humour.
When I’m bored in biology, I like imagining that Sherlock has normal person problems. Like those caused by humidity and curly hair.
Co-sponsoring an Orchestra Since 2009. United for Strudel, Against Cheesecake
The new installment in my ongoing quest to make the most obscure Cabin Pressure visual reference/joke I can. With bad photoshop skills. Also with no scanner, just my phone. Oh yeah.
Is this a stupid joke, badly executed? Yes. Am I putting it up anyway? Yes. Because I have no artistic talent but I do have lots of fun. So there.
Sorry.

I know I’m a few days late, but this took me longer than I had expected. Anyway, Happy Birthday Jeremy Brett.
Things Monty Python Taught Me About History: Part 1
Because yesterday my Dad wanted to know when Oliver Cromwell died, and I didn’t even have to google it, I just sang the song. Because I am a nerd. And it has been stuck in my head ever since. (the song in case anybody actually cares)
