holmesticeTitle: The Glorious Disguise
Recipient:sanguinity
Author:starfishstar
Verse: My Dearly Beloved Detective
Characters/Pairings: Shirley Holmes/Jane Watson
Rating: PG
Words:2,700
Warnings: none
Summary: On a quiet night in front of the fire at 221B Baker Street, Shirley tells Jane about the greatest disguise of her career.
Notes:
Dear Sanguinity, you are a pillar of the Holmestice community in general, and an inspiration to me in particular, and here is a Holmestice treat for you! You asked what led Shirley and Jane to apply for these roles; and you often mention your love of “old and deep relationships with a lot of history in them.” I’ve tried to give you a little of both those things.
To those who may not know “My Dearly Beloved Detective”: In this ‘verse, Sherlock Holmes is fictional, but people kept looking for him and his detective skills, so eventually a real detective agency was set up at 221B Baker Street. Shirley Holmes and Jane Watson are the two women who stepped into those famous literary roles.
And by the way, in the film Shirley and Jane part ways at the end, but in my world that never happened. :-)
Thank you tocolebaltblue for betaing and enthusiasm!
