This could be the start to something monumental. Or it could be the start to something that's just mental.
I'm Savanna and this blog is a multifandom mess of Sherlock Holmes, Psych, Yuri on Ice, Doctor Who, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kingsman, Martin Freeman, The Hobbit/LOTR, and really anything that tickles my fancy. I love Johnlock and potatoes so if either of those things offend you then you've come to the wrong place, friend!

After they got married, Sherlock randomly starts introducing John and/or himself with a double name, despite the fact that they both decided to just keep their names as they are. John, obviously, doesn’t say anything against it, in fact he loves the little proud face that Sherlock makes each time he gets to introduce himself as “Sherlock Watson-Holmes”, but - and it takes John a little while to notice it - at times Sherlock exchanges the two last names and makes it a “Holmes-Watson”.
At first John can’t quite make sense of these very randomly occuring changes, nor can he place the almost gleeful smirk accompanying Sherlock’s name being mentioned first other than as Sherlock’s usual, occasional hubris.
That is, until the realisation what the decisive factor is hits John unexpectedly at their next crime scene, and he pulls Sherlock aside, not sure if he should rather be angry or burst out in a giggle fit.
“Sherlock, you cock, stop doing that!”
“I don’t know what you’re talking-”
“Don’t you even try. Just… stop switching the names.”
“John, as you might remember, we didn’t agree on having a shared name, so neither of these two options is exactly false-”
But John cuts him off by pulling him dangerously close, which makes Sherlock startle for a moment, and drops his voice as he continues:
“But I, for my part, do not want the entire Yard to eventually figure out that it’s code for ‘who of us topped last night’, so I suggest you drop it or I’ll make sure there won’t be a Mr Holmes-Watson for a very long time.”
on that thought tho, john going through sherlock’s notes looking for some information for him for some case they’re working and finding this little notation, experiment abandoned (J), and asking sherlock, hey, what’s that mean? and sherlock just says oh. well. you needed me. and john is struck all over again with how much sherlock loves him and he has to catch sherlock by the elbow and bring him in for a kiss, whispering thank you against his mouth, feeling sherlock’s smile against his lips, i love you too.
sherlock and john teaching rosie to walk. both kneeling on the ground across from each other. john with his arms outstretched while sherlock holds rosie by her hands and says “walk over to daddy”.
once she starts to get the hang of it they’ll start to sit at increasingly further increments apart from each other and send her back and forth to one another, grinning at her and encouraging her and cheering her on, waving at her and kissing and hugging her each time she reaches one of them
john knows oscar wilde. john memorised passages from oscar wilde’s works. john knows “the world is changed because you are made of ivory and gold, the curves of your lips rewrite history” and remembers it whenever he looks at sherlock (:
sherlock absentmindedly biting a piece of toast john holds up for himself because theyre both reading papers and sitting next to each other and not paying attention

teenlock au where sherlock asks john to help him practice for a date with vic trev by going on a practice date together except there is no vic trev and sherlock just wants to go on a date with john 💘 meanwhile john is outrageously jealous
john jealously asks sherlock to describe vic trev and sherlock’s like “shit didn’t think thru this part of the lie v well” so he just blatantly describes john and john gets jealous of himself
john *glaring with gritted teeth*: so what is this … “victor trevor” like?
sherlock: ummm he’s… blond! and he wants to go to medical school and he’s got these amazing blue eyes and he’s really brave and his jumpers look really soft like maybe if he was cuddling with me and
john: this guy is clearly a tool i hate him

new rosie headcanon: at age 4-5 rosie gets really into fairytales and princes and princesses and all that jazz and she adores love stories and sherlock is so good at telling good night stories but they’re never about love, they’re always about adventures and good people defeating bad people and daddy and sherlock running through london at night chasing thieves and villains and it’s exciting but … there has to be more to it, right? so one evening she and john are sleeping over at 221B rosie asks sherlock to tell her a love story and sherlock starts out like “mmh well…um… once upon a time there was a princess in a land far far away,” and he’s already lost because he’s really not good with princes and princesses falling in love, and rosie interrupts him because he’s getting this all wrong anyway, a true love story has to be Real, so she asks if sherlock has ever been in love? and sherlock’s smile falters for a second and then it comes back, brighter than before but a bit bittersweet and maybe a bit sad, and he says “yes, once,” and rosie wants to know if it was a princess or a prince and sherlock tells her it was a prince, a beautiful, brave one who had faught many battles and defeated bad people and healed good ones before he met sherlock, and the very first night they spent together an evil cabbie tried to kill sherlock, but his new friend, his prince, saved sherlock’s life and sherlock fell in love instantly – and rosie asks why sherlock and the brave man he fell in love with are not together and sherlock just smiles and explains to her that the prince didn’t love sherlock back, not like that, he fell in love with a beautiful woman a while later and even married her, and that’s okay because when you really love someone, sometimes you have to give them up so they can be happy. sometimes love stories are a bit sad but they’re still love stories, and sherlock has many happy memories with the man he loves and that’s enough, and sherlock is slowly starting to feel extremely weird, opening up about unrequited love to a 5 year old who should have been asleep 30 minutes ago, the subject of the conversation being her father who’s waiting downstairs with the tea that’s getting cold but… sherlock just keeps going, he can’t really stop, until rosie is sleepy enough for him to give her a good night kiss on the forehead and switch the light off.
so the thing is, rosie is not an idiot and when they’re sitting at the breakfast table the next morning she fumbles with her toast gives sherlock a look and says, “is it daddy?” and sherlock nearly drops his fork and says “What” and rosie just completely matter-of-factly says “the prince. the one you fell in love with. who saved you from the cabbie. i think it’s daddy” and. sherlock and john on opposite ends of the kitchen table just. fucking dying.
sometimes, when they’re texting, sherlock will make a joke and he doesn’t know if john laughed bc he’s not there with him so he will text immediately after “funny?” and john will smile at his phone and say “yes :)”
he’s autistic and loves john is the underlying message of this post
john is belle he’s bookish and compassionate and interact with society but doesn’t quite fit and he’s brave bc he goes looking for papa in the forest and sherlock is the beast bc he’s a beautiful drama queen who doesn’t really know how to be nice to people and only talk to his freak friends, a teapot (mrs hudson) and a candlestick. thanks for coming to my ted talk
I’ll fight all of you I don’t even care
