Holmestice (Summer '24): "The Final Purroblem"

[graycardinal]

As the title suggests, someone's written me kitten!Holmes fic...and specifically, a story featuring both the most arch of arch-nemeses (-nemesises?) and a purrfectly diabolical pun.

(The link above connects to the very short foundation story in this tiny corner of Holmesian apocrypha, and there's a further link in the headnotes of that story to the tiny snippet of video that inspired the parent work.)

To say I'm delighted is an understatement. I am now harboring more hope than ever that we'll see more and further feline adventures from diverse hands arising from the premise...

I can still see them now, perched on the edge of the snow-white precipice.

(Or, at the paws of his nemesis, Sherlock meets with a terrible fate...for a kitten.)
