I posted my latest story to [livejournal.com profile] fan_flashworks yesterday.  It's BBC Sherlock and Victor Trevor/Sherlock Holmes. I received a comment asking who Victor Trevor was, as they couldn't find him on the Sherlock IMDB.  I explained that he was originally created by ACD.  The reply was that I should consider saying this was bookverse, not BBC Sherlock, as VT wasn't a character in Sherlock.

Apart from the fact that Victor/Sherlock (Viclock) is accepted in a certain corner of the BBC Sherlock fandom (I know it's not everybody's pairing, but it's a free world), I am non-plused on a number of accounts.  Firstly 'bookverse' - not a term I'm used to, most references I know are for ACD Holmes.  Secondly, given the rest of the story is clearly set in modern London, how on earth would it fit the Victorian era?  And lastly, surely I am doing exactly what Moffatt and Gatiss do, bringing up to date one of the original characters?  I haven't replied to the second comment.

On a different note, yesterday, with Leonard Nimoy's sad death, [livejournal.com profile] classics_lover posted a prompt to [livejournal.com profile] comment_fic   I wrote a drabble in response, which I have since posted to AO3.  I've had some lovely comments.  The Final Journey

And finally: I completed the second chapter of The Photograph of Choice  Which I thought meant it was completed.  Until a commentator asked to see Mycroft's response when he received it.  And the bunnies started biting.
