original prompt So, on BlueSky the other day, I saw THIS prompt, and figured 'what the hell'. I got to 11 out of the total 15, and as I started to answer them, I realized I could write it up as a fandom thing for my Dreamwidth.

So, here we go.....

To quote JD Rush, I committed fanfic again. This time Sherlock!

If you're interested, here's the AO3 version, and here's where you can reblog it on Tumblr!

Title: A Rose By Any Other Name
Author: Kylara Ingress
Fandom: Sherlock
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Rating: Teen and Up
Summary: Sherlock discovers pet names. Of course, he thinks he needs one for John.
tags: fluff, established relationship, humor, pet names, so many pet names,
characters: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, Greg Lestrade, Mrs. Hudson, Anderson, Donovan
Notes: Blame my wife, who came up with 'snugglebunny snuffleblossom honey bunny boo' years ago as a joke, and we still use it for each other. She used it the other day, and ... well ... this happened.

Forgot to post it here as well.

Title: 20 Questions: The Case of the Dirty Phone Call
Author: Kylara Ingress
Fandom: Sherlock
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Rating: Mature
Summary: John tries phone sex with Sherlock. It goes about as well as he expects.

Note: as always, dedicated to JD Rush, as her "20 Questions" style is all over this. While not necessarily in the same world as my other 20 Questions, it's not NOT in the same world either. While I started this wanting to do legitimate smut, Sherlock apparently decided it was going to be a comedy instead. Sherlock's definition of 'metaphor' comes from the Merriam Webster website.

The heat was overwhelming during August. Add in the California fires (nowhere near us, thankfully) and the hurricanes (there's a hurricane Kate apparently?) and it's been not-so-fun weather time. And of course the earthquake on August 7. It's weird that I'm now used to them. More under the cut.

The end of June had some minor issues (more below), so this is a few days late. I know I owe a response or two to my last one, but it's been difficult to do much beyond work and the minimum upkeep on everything else.

June overall was pretty much same old, same old. Yes, I'm fully vaccinated (and so is my wife), but I don't trust people, and news of the Delta variant making its presence known in Los Angeles has me still masking up when I go out.

More under the cut....

It’s a stressful time for anyone, regardless of how healthy you are. Thankfully, I am still working during this pandemic — albeit remotely. But that means I’m missing out on a lot of the great stuff that is being offered to keep people entertained and enlightened.

It makes sense, however, that when I do engage, I’ve been resorting to something familiar for the sense of comfort it gives me. But I also still want something ‘new’. So, I’ve compromised — and am looking at new things from creators I’m familiar with. Here are five things I’ve been doing to stay culturally engaged.

Read the full article on my website.

Episode 49: Another Well Kept Secret Exposed

I first was introduced to the artwork of the artist known as Another Well Kept Secret thanks to Tumblr and Sherlock. Her artwork shows a stylized humanity with very animated features – and she has a romantic flair that shows that love is indeed at the heart of everything she does.

Her real name is Kelley and she’s from Tennessee. She’s been on my list to interview for a while, but got bumped up partially because she’s been upping her commissions to help offset the current economic downturn the virus has caused so many. We talk about her art, her being open about her asexuality, and her interest in Sherlock Holmes and Good Omens. Full disclosure: I am a Patreon of her, and have had artwork commissioned in the past. So yeah, I’m a bit of a fan.

There are parts of fandom that have problems -- because, surprise, fandom is made up of people. My first roundtable, episode 35, dealt with the toxicity in the Star Wars fandom. A side conversation in that podcast led to this episode, wherein we (very broadly) talk about some of the more taboo aspects of shipping.

Since I had also started getting into audio (and podcasts) in 2014, I decided I wanted to start a series of interviews with women in the community to discuss what it was like to identify as a woman in the geek community. This is the second of a series of interviews where I take an academic approach.

Sora and I met thanks to the same Facebook Sherlock fan group I met the previous geek girl interview, Supriya Limaye. In fact, I had also interviewed Sora in 2014, while we both were in London at the time. However, Sora asked that I re-interview her since so much time had passed.

Supriya and I met, as mentioned in the interview, thanks to a Facebook Sherlock fan group for those in Southern California. At the time, she worked for Geek and Sundry, although now she works for DeviantArt. Originally from the Silicon Valley area, she moved to Los Angeles to look for work. We talk Harry Potter, Reddit, and other topics.

If you know me at all, you know I've been a fan of Doctor Who for most of my life. I've written about it extensively, whether it's my "Love Letter to Doctor Who" for the 50th anniversary, or my editorial on how my feelings changed over the years titled "Looking at 'Doctor Who' Series 9: Breaking Up is Hard to Do". So, when I had the chance at a ticket for this year's Gallifrey One, I jumped at the chance.

Just a little bit of fluff to make up for the angsty piece I am finishing up on right now. See? I can write funny stuff sometimes.

Do NOT ask me how I came up with this. I'm not quite sure myself. Read it on AO3 as well.

Title: 20 Questions: The Case of the Embarrassing Evidence
Author: Kylara Ingress
Fandom: Sherlock
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Rating: ooh, PG, leaning on PG-13
Summary: John asks about a certain piece of evidence that Sherlock has.
Spoilers: none
Note: Dedicated to JD Rush, as her 20 Questions style is all over this sucker. Also, there's some issue with the legitimacy of the Oscar Wilde quote. Consider it legit for this little piece of fluff, as it's not vital to what little story there is here. Not Brit-picked, unless you count the countless hours I spend watching British media from Downton Abbey to The IT Crowd to Death at a Funeral.

Holy crap.

It's been over ten years since I last wrote fiction of any kind, let alone fanfic. A bunch of various things conspired for this to happen that I won't go into, and I was at least satisfied with my various non-fiction writing (some posted here, but most posted on my theatre blog) even though I missed the feel of having a character take over a story, and I worried I'd never get back to that place where I hear the character's voice in my head.

I had watched the first series of Sherlock because I'm a Moffat fan (even though I can never remember if it's two f's and one t, or two t's and one f), LOVED how he 'modernized' Jeckyll, and have enjoyed other versions of the good detective: so I knew it was going to be good. Having them acknowledge the very long history of people already slashing the two main characters just added to my enjoyment of the first series, but I never did much more than that. The second series gobsmacked me (I love that word - gobsmack), and - well, as my note below states, could easily see a scene or two in my head. Meanwhile, I was enjoying JD's Sherlock stories, and figured that would be that ... and then John started 'talking'. In present tense (I normally HATE present tense) - and in 50+ sentences that would put Faulkner to shame. I was both excited and scared, and ... well, the results are below. You can also read it on AO3.

Totally not betad, so please read with the proverbial grain of salt. So, without further ado....
