Inheritance - Part 1
Jun. 22nd, 2011 08:34 pmMore Sherlock fic! My research for funny Holmes facts & apocrypha for the RP have led me to the find that in several different published Holmes sequels/pastiches, Sherlock's claimed to be father to Reginald Jeeves (following a love affair with Mrs Hudson, of all people) as well as Auguste Lupa aka Nero Wolfe, following a post-Reichenbach affair with Irene Adler.
This both amuses and horrifies me greatly, particularly since Irene as the RP has made me picture her and Sherlock would be the WORST PARENTS EVAR, which would explain why Nero comes across in his Wiki as a bit of a dick, IMO. So on Father's Day I decided to start writing about how such an unholy spawn could come about in BBC Sherlock verse. I took some inspiration from
irene_adlr_nrtn's backstory regarding the state of her marriage to Godfrey, so be warned that this chapter has allusions to an unhappy, abusive marriage and includes some very offensive, abusive language. We see both Sherlock and Irene at rather a low ebb in their lives here, so it’s a wee bit angstypants even though there’s certainly no weeping, wailing or beating of chests. It also has some rather awkward, Sherlockish Sherlock/Irene sexytimes, because that's how babies are made (not that you necessarily need to be awkward to make babies, but, you know. Vagina. Be warned.)
