Also, Sherlock and John were on the cover of Summer Falls by Amelia Williams in The Bells of St. John. Just to the right on the book’s cover.

AU: Sherlock and John meet James Bond at Buckingham Palace at the Opening Ceremonies for the 2012 Olympic Games
“Oh, here’s trouble,” Bond says as he comes striding into the reception room.
“I’m perfectly happy to leave,” Sherlock says. “In fact, I’d have been perfectly happy not to come at all.”
“Not you, sonny,” Bond says, his scowl turning to a crooked smirk as he walks straight past Sherlock. “John Watson, you bloody devil. Who let you in here?”

ACD would be so pissed off if he saw fans of Sherlock Holmes today.
I’m not going to pretend like I don’t favor one interpretation over another, but I’m not going to go fighting someone on it.
Conan Doyle didn’t want to remembered as the inventor of Sherlock Holmes. He wanted to be remembered for his contributions to law enforcement and medicine. A lot of people don’t know that one of the cases he worked in real life led to the formation of the Court of Appeals.
Conan Doyle would think everyone fighting over his characters were stupid. He wouldn’t care whether it was made Victorian or modern. The deductions would be important, the little details of law and medicine would be important. He wouldn’t give a shit about name changes and whatever. He even got John Watson’s name wrong. He wrote “James” rather than “John.” (Hence the assumption that John’s middle name is Hamish).
I’m tired of people arguing over Sherlock vs. Elementary. If ACD was around now, he’d tell the lot of people arguing to just piss off. (Then he’d go on some tangent about faeries and stuff because that’s just how he rolled).
