You know I love you, right, Med?

Hi I felt like menacing Watson vv

[ID: Digital artwork of Lestrade, Watson and Holmes. Watson is sandwiched between the two, hand reaching back to hold onto Lestrade behind him as Holmes holds him by the waist. One of Lestrade's hands is resting on his throat and he is whispering to him with a smug expression. (Good pup. Just like that. Keep going). On the other side, Holmes has just detached himself from a kiss, a string of salive seperating him and Watson, who is panting. They are all in their shirtsleeves. /end ID]

(deets under the cut!)

Which is what's happening with this one across platforms and I have to say it's one of my favorite things to happen ever 🤭🤭

Somebody left a comment on my AO3 that reminded me that in spite of this being one of the coolest things that’s ever happened to me, I actually never made a post about it??? Absolutely wild.

Anyway I wrote a monologue about an autistic Julian Bashir making peace with his fractured identity and the things that were taken from him. And then Sid just went ahead and… performed it. 

This man has next to no social media presence so people outside of the social club he has might not be aware, but he is one of the gentlest and kindest people to his fans. He is SO interested in the interpretations we bring to the table, and genuinely wants to listen to and amplify all these different perspectives that get brought to the table (I am also just like. Particularly touched by his support of his trans fans but that’s another post for another time). 

My heart is so full every time I look back on this because all I really did was ask: could Julian Bashir be autistic? And to get this level of care and thoughtfulness and warmth put into my words as a response? I’m holding this next to my heart forever.
