I'm signing up as: author
In return, I want: fic
I'm mostly interested in: Canon, BBC
What I'd like to receive: I'd really like something that explores the friendship of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson without making that the explicit focus of the story. That is to say, I'd like a mystery or an adventure or any other interesting sort of plot that develops their characters, and particularly their relationship as a sort of side benefit. I don't mind hurt/comfort, but I would rather not have excessive fluffiness. If it's BBC verse I would like John to still be with Sarah, though there's no need for it to even be mentioned, really...just don't make him not be with Sarah, please. :-)
What I wouldn't like to receive: slash, explicit sex, gratuitous language, very graphic violence (violence is okay...just no revelling in it, if that makes any sense). No Holmes being in any relationship whatsoever--Holmes ought never to be in a romantic situation EVER in my book.
What I can create: gen fic, fic with a quirky sense of humor, pretentiously "clever" literary fic (I love words...and I love trying to be clever. hehe)...frankly, I've never been a prolific fanfic writer, though I enjoy it. So far in the Holmes world I've written canon fic that is only very very mildly angsty, and somewhat humorous (and usually ends with a tiny chuckle at Holmes's expense.) But again, that's about...4 stories? I would be happy to write canon again, and I'd also love to try my hand at BBC-verse.
What I can't create: No slash, not explicit sex, no 'verses other than Canon and BBC, no romance involving Holmes, no fluffiness/angst/hurtcomfort. (well I could probably squeeze in a little bit of fluffiness or hurt/comfort or angst, but I can't often bring myself to write a story with that kind of focus...and then when I do the results are not so good... )
I'm available as a pinch hitter: No promises, but I might be able to--if I were asked, I could certainly give a yes/no answer within a few hours.
