Please include further details about what you’d like to receive:
Do Not Want: Non-con, Permanent character death, Detailed descriptions of gore like blood, viscera, etc. Anything involving feces or urine, cheating, 2nd person POV, tragic endings

Rathbone Holmes Prompts:
-anything about the two of them surviving the real trials of WWII together, like The Blitz, rationing, in one film we saw that Watson had gone to the country to volunteer at a home that looked after wounded soldiers so if you would like to explore Watson's medical service that would be good too. Also, assuming in this universe Watson's army service would have been in WWI, does he have any trauma or PTSD around that, and having to go through another war? Maybe going through all of this together convinces them to stop hesitating and get together.
-in The Spider Woman the villain set it up so that Watson would kill Holmes and not even realize it, we can assume that Watson found out about this afterwards, how did he feel about this? How did Holmes feel knowing that his beloved companion would be the instrument of his own death?
-in the Pursuit to Algiers at the beginning of the film it is mentioned that Holmes is unwell and the Doctor has prescribed a long vacation for rest, what do we think is the issue? I picture Holmes collapsing from exhaustion after they made sure the prince has made it to safety and Watson must care for him
-sex pollen (or cuddle pollen!), there is exactly one sex pollen fic on AO3 for this fandom and I would love to read another one
-Holmes & Watson having to pretend to be a couple for a case
-Holmes’ enemies hurt Watson to get back at Holmes. So they kidnap him, or beat him up, or something else, to send Holmes a message. You can make it a canonical enemy like Moriarty and his gang, Baron Gruner, etc, or you can make up your own evil villain.
-Watson gets drugged in some fashion (by accident? by some villain?) and it makes him overly affectionate and amorous with Holmes. Also, maybe cue scene after he has sobered up and poor Watson is so embarrassed, but maybe it leads to them having a discussion around their feelings for each other?
-Watson has made the acquaintance of a widow woman on a neighbouring street, and somehow Holmes has discovered that every once and awhile Watson and this woman engage in “intimate relations” i.e. sex. This greatly disturbs Holmes, but he has a hard time understanding why at first, it takes some introspection for Holmes to realize it’s because he has romantic feelings for his Watson (About the widow, I see her being an independent woman about the same age as Watson, and she has no interest in marrying Watson, they just like to have a little fun on occasion)
-Watson sustains a severe head injury, and afterwards he has trouble concentrating or experiences mood swings, or anything else you can think of, and Watson is afraid he is no longer a fit companion for Holmes
-Vampire!Holmes and Werewolf!Watson. Or Vampire!Holmes turns Watson and has some guilt about this. Also open to them being other supernatural creatures or other having supernatural powers.

Granada Prompts:
-feel free to take any of the prompts for the Rathbone films and rework them for the Granada boys
-anything to do with The Devil's Foot episode, I love the idea of this isolated cottage being the place for introspection and maybe them facing some truths about their relationship. Also, a great setting for hurt/comfort as Holmes is recovering from an illness and withdrawing cold turkey from his cocaine addiction
-I'm perfectly happy with Holmes being written as asexual and exploring how they handle that in their romantic relationship
-if you're creating art I prefer Hardwicke's version of Watson over Burke's, not that I don't love Burke's version, but Hardwicke is the version I see in my head now

The Great Mouse Detective Prompts:
-any hurt/comfort is appreciated. Maybe Dawson patches Basil up after his encounter with Rattigan, or maybe Dawson gets hurt/ill and needs to be cared for
-a villain goes after Dawson for some reason (to get back at Basil, because Dawson helped someone the villain hates, etc) and Basil goes into protection mode, no one hurts his companion!
-Dawson adjusting to living with Basil, with his constant experiments, his bouts of melancholy, etc., and maybe Basil having to learn to have a little consideration for his new flatmate. Also, how chuffed is Basil that he has a companion now just like Holmes has Watson, I'm sure he's very pleased about it.
-Basil is in trouble (kidnapped?, trapped?) and Dawson has to try his best to find clues and use Basil's network and tools to find him before it's too late
-Also, if you want to do vampmouse Basil and weremouse Dawson that would be too cute!

Sherlock & Daughter Prompts:
-Watson was so huggy and clingy when Holmes found him because he was drugged, I would love to see more of that, maybe during the carriage ride back or at their return to Baker St. Just Watson not wanting to let Holmes go.
-if you want to explore any internal angst either felt during their separation that would be great, and maybe once they are together again it leads to the two of them revealing their feelings for each other
-Holmes and Watson trying to co-parent Amelia in some fashion, like they have a young woman living with them that might need some guidance on occasion, are they good at it? Bad? Somewhere in between?

BBC Sherlock Prompts:
-they started meeting up on the regular to discuss Sherlock, but now they keep meeting up because they really like each other's company
-anything post-Reichenbach, yes Mycroft may be aware that Sherlock is alive, but this can't have been easy on him, also poor Lestrade is left with a whole mess to deal with, not only thinking his friend is dead, but also everyone assuming his cases are shit. If you want to do any type of hurt/comfort between these two during this period I would love it. Are either one of them drinking too much? Smoking again? Doing dangerous unadvised things? etc.
-I'm always here for Sherlock finding out about them and him being like "no, no, no, my friend and my brother can not be dating!"
-also, if you want to go full AU with it and have these two meet in some way that has nothing to do with Sherlock I'm very open to it
-Also, Vampire!Mycroft would be great, does he "turn" Lestrade? Or is Lestrade his own type of supernatural creature?
-I've only watched the first two seasons, although I plan to watch season 3 very soon. I have been slightly spoiled for some events in the later seasons, but if you can only make reference to those events vaguely that would be appreciated. Also, I don't mind Sherlock/John as a background/secondary pairing, I just don't want them to be the main focus.

Warlock Holmes Prompts:
-You know when Watson meets a pretty lady he gets all dreamy eyed and can't help but think about how fair their skin, how lovely their voice, how gentle their demeanour, etc? Well I would love if he starts acting that way about Warlock, but then he catches himself and is all like "oh no, it can't be!" and has to reckon with some feelings.
-I love how in the first book it is slightly implied that some people think Watson is Warlock's "kept man", so if you want to play with that idea have at it
-I love when Warlock is unexpectedly smart, like he is smart about certain things, just not deduction or being a detective
-in the second book they gave us like the saddest backstory for Warlock, he was essentially Moriarty's slave and he is set free into the world as child to be taken advantage of by demons, the book really never reckons with that, so if you want to explore that and how he coped/copes I would be open to that.
-Magic users/creatures try to seduce, mesmerize, etc, Watson, and Warlock is having none of that
-I'm currently reading my way through book three, so no spoilers beyond that please.

Special requests: N/A

Excellent!

The sign-ups are now open!

Treats Policy: As of February 2022, AO3 has introduced a setting to let users opt out of receiving additional gifts outside of formal exchanges (in Holmestice terms, "treats"). Please indicate whether you are or are not open to receiving additional fan works based on your sign-up. Also be sure to check your AO3 account preferences, under "Collections, Challenges and Gifts". AO3 accounts made before February 2022 default to ALLOW gifts, whereas new accounts default not to. Because signups are not handled through AO3, you MUST turn on treat ability if you want your gift posted to AO3. More information regarding this setting is available on AO3.

If you have a Dreamwidth account, join the Dreamwidth community and create a new post using the template below with your offer and request. The template is designed to be used with the HTML editor (not the Rich Text editor).

If you do not want a Dreamwidth account, you can leave your sign-up as a comment on this post using the "Anonymous" option. If you choose to use the Anonymous option, please make sure you correctly fill in all the identifying info in the template, so we know who signed up and how to contact you.



The sign-up template below includes ratings for what you're willing to create and would like to receive. Sexual content is deliberately separated from violence and other mature themes, so if you are someone who enjoys PWP but not violence, you have an easy way of indicating that (or vice versa) for the mods and other Holmestice participants.

The template also includes a list of suggested Holmesian fandoms and iterations. This is not an exhaustive list -- if you have another fandom in mind, please include it in your sign up! Alternatively, if you're open to offering or receiving any Holmesian fandom, please feel free to say so. (Although do make clear what you mean by "any" -- very few people truly can offer every pastiche, film, television, radio, and graphic novel adaptation ever made!)

Please note when putting down relationships:
  • "/" (e.g., "Holmes/Watson") indicates a romantic or sexual relationship
  • "&" (e.g., "Holmes & Watson") indicates a friendship or other platonic/fraternal/non-sexual/non-romantic relationship

Do please make sure you're using / and & correctly in your sign-ups, as we use it to determine matches, and your match will use it to determine what sort of relationships to write for you.

Matches will be made on fandom, characters/pairings, categories, and ratings. All other details you include (besides any "do not wants") are optional; i.e., your gift-maker may take inspiration from any specific prompt you include, but they are not required to use them.

New this round: By popular request original music has been added to gift type! You can offer or request this along with fic, art, podfic, graphics, vids, etc.



( Sign-up Template )




You can edit your post until sign-ups close on October 12. Anything you add or delete after that will not be taken into account.

All stories must be a minimum of 1,000 words in length; icon posts must contain at least 10 icons; vids must be at least one minute in length. Any type of fanwork is required to go through some kind of beta process. All finished fanworks must be posted to AO3 and/or sent to the mods at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com on or before November 25. Directions on how to post/submit your work will be posted to the community later in the round. If you don't submit your work by the due date and have not contacted us for an extension, we will automatically look for a pinch hitter.

If you need your recipient to clarify their prompt or if you want to ask whether they're all right with that one particular thing you'd like to include, please contact us at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com, and we'll forward the question for you to preserve your anonymity.

Please remember that if you sign up to receive a gift, it'll only be fair if you create one as well. That said, if you have to drop out of the exchange for any reason, please contact one of the moderators as soon as possible by e-mailing us at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com so we can find a pinch hitter to create a gift for your intended recipient.

If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out!

AI-generated pieces are not welcome in this exchange.
