Title: Drowning, After a Fashion
Recipient: morelindo
Artist: verilyvexed
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock/John, Molly, Anthea
Rating: PG-13? Teen?
Warnings: Nothing graphic, but they are at the beach, thus half-naked, and some of the panels are suggestive, so probably NSFW.
Summary: 9 page comic with a bonus gag page (which we're calling a bonus page because I ran out of time and it's a bit messy. Apologies!) Happy Summer Holmestice, morelindo, hope this is to your liking!
A/N: A million thanks to kispexi2, booshbesotted, and "nothing_to_say for their help, hand-holding, and whip-cracking.

Bonus Gift for Mustbehavingfun: Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better

[holmesticemods]

Title: Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better
Author: who_is_small
Recipient: mustbehavingfun
Characters: Sherlock, John
Rating: PG
Summary: Sherlock is writing a poem, intending to prove a point. Unfortunately, he gets distracted by Urban Dictionary.
Notes: My first gift was so schmoopy that it practically lacked only John and Sherlock skipping through a meadow, with dandelions in their hair. I thought this might soften the blow a bit. (I also deduced that you are not overly fond of Mr. Anderson. Sherlock was happy to rip him a new one for you.)
Thanks to pantropia for quick and efficient beta.

The second round of holmestice is officially over and done with! A huge thank-you goes out to our 52 participants, who wrote, painted, manipped, and generally created some truly impressive fanworks. We also owe a lot to our pinch-hitters, who generously made sure that no one was without a gift.

If you would like to hazard a guess as to who may have created a particular gift, you're welcome to do so in the comments of this post. You're equally welcome to tell the mods how amazing they are for their mad organising skillz.

The Masterlist for this round will be posted on July 1st. Again, we encourage you to catch up on your reading/marvelling and to perhaps leave the odd comment if you find something you've enjoyed. Comments are love. :)

Thank you for participating, cheering, commenting and lurking, and a happy Holmesian Solstice to you all!
