asjkaldajsfhdjkf YES. YES, FUCK YES. That needs to happen! And I propose the creepy soothing includes hair-petting and hushing, though strangely non-sexual, seeing Watson's naked/near naked and Holmes was tied up with handcuffs just a few seconds ago. And poor Watson being so confused and not knowing whether he should accept the comfort or punch Holmes in the face.
Actually come to think history need not be that alternative for this. Oooh, burn. ♥
I think that could work. I mean, if it's more like "Well, the government sucks, so we might actually do more good breaking the law than abiding to it, so who cares?" rather than Holmes and Watson turning into Underground Heroes and saving the day. But one point I'm standing firm on is that Lestrade must be the decent man he is. He might work for a corrupt government, but he cannot be a crooked cop. If he is, then I will weep.
Also! To return to a previous topic, the one regarding why the hell Watson would turn into a criminal. I think it wouldn't be that hard to manage. I mean, after Watson came home from the war, his self-esteem and confidence must have been shot to hell. Not only was that particular war a failure, IIRC, but also he's an ~invalid~. And since he didn't have a batshit crazy co-hab to nurse him back to health, he should still have the same self-esteem as your average teenager. Then this amazing, fascinating and oh-so-cool rogue turns up and shows you that you're actually not helpless, but not only that, he offers you power as well. Sad psychology, yes, but somewhat plausible all the same?
Oh, really, do you now? A WIP? ::grabby hands::
Again, also, there are other points I want to bring up! First, I have two questions: A) Who would play Moriarty? and B) Does Irene Adler show up as a non-love interest? Then, I want to ask you if you've heard Welcome to Rapture (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEFIZh_Zscc)? Because I'm just a teeny bit obsessed and monomaniac and certainly didn't spend last night looking for music that fit. But I really like the feeling you get by this song; it's exactly how I imagine the fic would be like. Your opinion? :D
Well, really, old boy, who found these quarters in the first place? I'm sure I could manage the rent on my own, if I must. Not that I have any inclanation to, so don't get any ideas, my dear.
