The Avengers in Fifteen Minutes.1) I think this one took me the longest time to write ever (SIX WEEKS) barring maybe the year-long meltdown that was the writing of the ten parodies for the book

It turned out beautifully. You did good!

I love you so much for doing this. I am going to go read it write now and have many moments of pure fangirl joy. XD

OMFG YES THANK YOU SO MUCH ILU FOR THIS <333 I haven't even read it yet and I'm throwing flowers at your feet.

Also: ...huh, so Holmes wasn't just pulling something out of his ass with the "baritsu". Good to know.

My question is whether Conan Doyle left the first T out on purpose.

[executivehpfan]

People do say he was notoriously absent-minded. He forgot he married Watson off, for fuck's sake. lol

[readerofprey]

Which story was that? (I just finished reading the complete stories and novels, and it seemed like after a few post-marriage stories where Watson specifies that he's writing about something that happened in his bachelor days, he just starts jumping around and the chronology gets confused.)

He definitely forgot Watson's first name (John vs James) and when he killed off Mrs Watson, though - there's two stories that definitively occur after Holmes's return that reference Watson being married even though he was supposed to be widowed during Holmes's disappearance.)

I love the Holmes scholars who try to reconcile everything with the phantom second marriage (and second bereavement, poor Watson!) and the idea that his name is John Hamish (Scottish for James) Watson.
