Meme Answers (Part 1)

[smallhobbit]

As promised, here are the first four answers to the Meme Questions.  In addition, moth2fic made me some stunning spooky images from the photos I took at Tintern, so they are interspersed with the answers:

Adam Carter and Stanley Hopkins move in together. How do they decorate their bedroom(s)?  innie_darling 

This is clearly a temporary arrangement, with Stanley having found a new flat (he’ll never want to live permanently with Sherlock), and Adam and Lucas still looking for somewhere suitable. Decoration will be very plain: Stanley goes for functional and Adam won’t be there for long.



Watson and Mrs Hudson go to a pumpkin patch, an argument ensues. Over what? And what becomes of the pumpkin? stonepicnicking_okapi 

The argument begins because Watson is cross that Holmes has left him with the chore. Mrs Hudson is cross because she has better things to do than find a suitable pumpkin for Holmes’ current case. The argument arises because they cannot agree as to what exactly Holmes wanted since his instructions where too vague. Finally, they buy one, but by the time they reach Baker Street, Holmes says it’s no longer necessary. Watson forces Holmes to sit down, while Mrs Hudson pushed the pumpkin down on his head.



Mrs Hudson invites the inhabitants of Nonnatus House to go dancing. What kind of dancing, and do they accept? If they go, does everyone have fun, or is it an utter disaster? castiron 

Mrs Hudson invites them to go country dancing. There’s a slight reticence on behalf of some of the nuns, but Sister Monica Joan is very enthusiastic, and in the end they all agree. They have a marvellous time and agree to go again.



Sherlock and Mycroft get set up on a blind date. Is it a great match or an utter disaster? corvidology 

Sherlock is in the middle of a case, and using a false name, which is why he goes on the date. He suspects the man who sets him up as being involved in some dubious affairs. Meanwhile the partner of this man invites Mycroft along because they believe they can involve him in their plans. Mycroft, who is very suspicious of what’s happening, also agrees to go. Neither brother gives any indication they know each other when they are introduced, but manage to share information between themselves without anyone else being any the wiser. As far as Sherlock and Mycroft are concerned this is all a great success, better than they would have hoped for; it’s is an utter disaster for the two who arranged for them to meet.

I'm very happy with the outcome, particularly given the two characters I picked out without knowing. :D

[smallhobbit]

Yes, I was very amused when I saw the pairing.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

I like the pumpkin patch case. Hopefully Mrs. Hudson can make a pie after they remove it from Holmes's head. And I think Mrs. Hudson and the nuns would have fun time dancing.

[smallhobbit]

I'm sure Mrs Hudson will some use of the pumpkin. Dancing with the nuns was a much more entertaining time!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you.

[castiron]

I love the mental image of Mrs. Hudson country dancing.

And the Sherlock and Mycroft accidental blind date idea is brilliant.

[smallhobbit]

I'm sure it's something she'd have done when she was young and I could see them all enjoying it.

As soon as I saw that prompt I knew it had great possibilities.

[moth2fic]

Great answers, and lovely to see you're able to share the images. The pumpkin one was actually appropriate! *g*

[smallhobbit]

Thank you - yes, it was fun pairing the image and the answer. I'm delighted to have been able to share the images.

Nicely done...pumpkin’s fate seemed reasonable in the circumstances:-p

[smallhobbit]

Thank you. Its fate was sealed from the point at which Holmes said, "Oh, you needed have bothered ..."
