Currently on a small Tumblr break but I can't get this out of my head...
I just watched the BBC Sherlock special The Abominable Bride again because it's back on PBS and I have this idea.
What if what's in Sherlock's slipper is not his solution but instead is an relief or a cure because Sherlock is...wait for it...a vampire. I know, I'm so sorry but wait!!
What if his and Irene Adler's deal is that she likes kinks and one of them being bitten. She lets him be himself. He doesn't have to hide it with her because she enjoys it. She's aloof and doesn't want to be tied down (relationship wise because the BBC Irene most certainly does indeed want to be tied down) so he has found getting high or perhaps the solution he takes nulls the drive to need or want blood.
Ok, that's it, I feel better. If anyone ever sees this and gives something a go, please tag me because I'd love to read it 🦇🖤
