Thank you kindly. I'm actually quite fond of a slashy bent for Victorian Holmes/Watson.
I have a fic to write and I'm trying to decide where to start so I'm just trying to get lots and lots of thoughts swirling around to see what shakes out. One of the things that make me think, 'Hm, I wonder..' was the idea of Holmes and Watson retiring together to Sussex. Would they actually have been able to do this considering the atmosphere at the time? Two bachelors sharing rooms on a long-term basis in London is one thing, but a move to the country together seems quite another.
