If you don't have an LJ account but wish to join the exchange nonetheless, please leave a comment with your request to this post.

You can edit your post until sign-ups close on October 13th. Anything you add or delete after that will not be taken into account.

All stories have to be a minimum of 1,000 words in length, icon posts should contain at least 10 icons. Any type of fanwork is required to go through some kind of beta process. All finished fanworks must be sent to the mods at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com on or before November 24th. If you haven't submitted your work by then and have not contacted us for an extension, we will automatically look for a pinch hitter.

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 e-mail contact one of the moderators as soon as possible or e-mail us at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com so we can find a pinch hitter to create a gift for your intended recipient. If you need your recipient to clarify hir prompt or ask if ze's all right with that one particular thing you'd like to work in, please contact us, and we'll forward the question to preserve your anonymity.

We will be crossposting this to our tumblr account, but please feel free to pimp the exchange far and wide. The more participants we have, the greater the diversity and quality of fanworks!

Questions, comments, etc. are always welcome. Most importantly, have fun! :)

I will create:fic
In the following parts of fandom: Elementary
For the following pairings: Joan/Moriarty, Ms Hudson/Joan, Sherlock/Moriarty/Joan, Sherlock/Joan.
I like working with the following categories: Gen, femslash, het, angst, AU, fluff, cisswap/genderswap, hurt/comfort, case fic, domestic, platonic soulmates, roommate nonsense, etc.
I am willing to create for the following kinks: i'm really not into any, but if it's something someone REALLY wants, i'm okay with dub-con.
I want to receive: fic (prefered) art, vids.
In at least one of the following parts of fandom: Elementary.
For at least one of the following pairings: Joan/Moriarty, Sherlock/Joan, (platonic or cisswaped/genderswaped both into ladies) Moriarty/Sherlock (ditto), Joan/Moriarty/Sherlock, Ms Hudson/Joan, Moriarty/Kayden.
I like stuff in the following categories: Gen, femslash, angst, AU, dark, explicit sexual content (not necessary, but okay), fluff, cisswap/genderswap, hurt/comfort, kid!fic, platonic soulmates, case fic, roommate nonsense, holiday fun, character study, backstory stuff, five things fic, found families.
I wouldn’t mind any of the following kinks: (not really into it but) dub-con, explicit sexual content are okay.
Please include further details about what you’d like to receive: any sort of Joan/Moriarty relationship, not exactly fluff, but as sort of begrudgingly on Sherlock and Joan's side as Moriarty ever really gets. Protective Moriarty (more so of Joan, but both Joan and Sherlock) any sort of special Joan/Ms Hudson or Joan/Alfredo friendship bits, bonus points for Moriarty interacting with either of them. But, I am not a fan of ignoring all that Moriarty has done.

Any sort of fairy tale retellings/parallels. (love red riding hood, snow white, hansel and gretel) or greek gods modernized (artemis/apollo, incest, perfectly fine for this pairing). accidental toddler/baby acquisition, pre-canon, future fic, handcuffed/stuck together, zombie au/apocalypse, de-aging (one or both), locked in somewhere, fake relationship. Love emphases on the addiction/recovery themes, Joan remaking her life, Sherlock/Joan on equal terms, Joan/not taking Sherlock's bullshit. The brownstone, the bees, the chickens etc.

PS: I am not Mycroft fan at all. And I hate Joan/Mycroft.

DO NOT WANT: bsdm, underage smut, student/teacher, non-con, torture/humiliation, nazi/holocaust aus, m/m slash, mpreg, incest, no tragic sickness/cancer/major death of one of the main characters.
