Guessing Post

That's a wrap for the main round of gifts! Thank you so much for another wonderful round of Holmestice! The mods want to say THANK YOU to all the creators who joined us for this round. You put in a lot of hard work and made some wonderful things.

Reveals and the Master List go up on December 21st! Until then, please enjoy and comment on all the lovely fanworks. Creators, please do NOT respond to comments on DW or post your fanwork elsewhere until reveals go up in the community. (You may of course post to our AO3 Winter 2017 Holmestice collection, which preserves your anonymity. You may reply to AO3 comments, as well.)

The main round of gifts are all posted, but we're not done yet -- we have several days of treats coming up! We'll continue to accept treats right through until reveals, so if there's a prompt out there that intrigues you and you want to whip something up for it, please do! Just send it to [email protected], using the regular submission guidelines.

If you'd like to guess at who created what in this round, a list of all the creators is below the cut. Go ahead and take a guess! It's all in good fun.

Go forth and leave love for your fellow Holmestice authors, artists, and podficcers. See you again on the 21st, when we reveal who made what!
sanguinity: woodcut by M.C. Escher, "Snakes" (Default)

Indeed. I take it that [personal profile] starfishstar isn't familiar with those two 'verses, but they are very different. Kurland's Moriarty is a well-mannered scientist and gentleman, his stories told in a sly, understated style, whereas Newman's Moriarty is grotesque to the point of being cartoonish, the stories themselves a farcical mirrorverse of canon.

That said, I've made worse errors than that while matching. And I did do the matching while hopped up on benadryl. Who knows what Alice-in-Wonderland match-ups I might have thought sensible?

Ooh, no no, I realize they're completely different, I was just thinking that the *visual* similarity of the names might have caused an accidental match...I don't mean to impugn your matching skills, though, which are truly excellent!

Hm, hm, all of this is idle speculation anyway, since I haven't read everything; I might or might not have time tomorrow to actually look at all of the data and make real guesses. :-)
