Author: [to be revealed]
Characters: John Watson; mention of others
Rating: PG
Warnings: None.
Summary: Later on that night, as he took to the internet to find out more about the man he might share a flat with soon, he had no reason to think that the man would be the Daedalus to his Icarus. That Sherlock Holmes, through his genius, brilliance, sheer madness, would fashion for him wings of wax with which to fly.
Author’s Note: Title and quotations taken from Jack Gilbert’s poem, ‘Failing and Flying’.
To the recipient: I was originally going to do a day in the life but it ventured more into the ‘epic friendship’ category, Greek myth style.

The third round of holmestice is officially over and done with! 56 participants worked their little fingers off to create some awe-inspiring fanworks, in some cases with record speed. You're all amazing, thank you so much!

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.

The Masterlist for this round will be posted on January 1st (yes, despite certain fannish happenings that day; no, we will not change our schedule; no, please do not post your work anywhere else before the list goes up; yes, I will happily answer any questions you may have in that regard; yes, the list will go up extra-early in the day to make sure you can archive in peace). 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. Please, if you're one of this year's participants (even if you had to drop out) and someone created a gift just for you, do take the time to thank them for it. Comments are love. :)

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