sevenswellsA few Sherlock comic strips about fic patterns, XKCD-style. (Just don't get me wrong, here, I've read a LOT of fics in this fandom, still reading a lot of them, and the majority of them are really incredibly good, even when they follow either of the two situations described below (sometimes both). Maybe those repetitive patterns are one of the very reasons I love this fandom so much, too. So, anyway, it's just a little affectionate teasing, not serious critique or bashing or anything of the kind.)
Fandom: BBC Sherlock, rating: R just to be safe (very mild sexual content), artist: me. That should cover it. I hope you'll like them!
So I've noticed most Sherlock fics follow mainly two patterns, in broad lines:
SITUATION ONE:
SITUATION TWO:

Date: 2011-02-21 07:03 pm (UTC)Thank you sweetie, and don't worry: believe me, I know how much RL can interfere with SRS FIC BSNS, so I'll be waiting, no problem at all. Again, I'm already over the moon that you've accepted this little trade with me, I truly worship your writing and it's a great honor for me!
I hope RL will get better for you though! <3 *sends love across ocean*

HAHAHA I laughed a little myself as I was drawing it -- the stick-figure fits him so well, it's uncanny; I'd totally watch it as a cartoon on TV "The Adventures of Stick-Figure Sherlock".
Thank you for your comment, dear! <3
