Summer 2021 Guessing Post

[holmesticemods]

Thank you so much for another wonderful round of Holmestice! The mods want to say THANK YOU to all the creators who joined us this round. Being in this community with you is a joy and an honour.

Reveals and the Master List go up on June 21st. Until then, please enjoy and comment on all the lovely fanworks. (If you haven't thanked your creator for your own gift yet, please do!) Creators, please do NOT respond to Dreamwidth comments or post your works elsewhere on the Internet until reveals go up in the community. You may of course reply to comments on AO3, which preserves your anonymity.

In the meanwhile, stay tuned: treats are coming up! For anyone thinking of making a treat, we will accept treats until reveals, so if there's a prompt that inspires you, please have at it! Just use the regular submission guidelines and send your headers to holmesticemods@gmail.com.

If you'd like to guess who created what in this round, here's a list of all the contributors for the main gifts. (You'll have to put in some extra work to guess the treat-makers!) Go ahead and take a guess! It's all in good fun.

Re: Toe in the Water

[rachelindeed]

Oh what a lovely observation! I hope that Gray Cardinal did write it, and that he did fold a little acknowledgement of Real!Alice into the story :) My two top contenders for BOX ONE are Gray Cardinal and Sanguinity, and I do believe I will put my money on Gray Cardinal!

Re: Toe in the Water

[graycardinal]

As I note elsewhere, I owe a considerable hat-tip to language_escapes for creating a story that really does look like one I might have written (and for serving as a particularly good diverter of attention in the late stages of the guessing phase).

We must therefore assume that, unless language_escapes is also on the LoM list (possible, and most likely under a different persona, as the conventions for handles are different over there), any homage to LoM's Alice was unintentional at most.

Re: Toe in the Water

I am capable of becoming a chameleon!

I was on the LoM list... oh my heavens, years upon years ago? As in, right when it started? But I struggled with the format, so I rarely posted. And it was under a different screen name, but I can't remember which one! So alas, it was an accident.
