    Some Observations Upon the Taming of the Bloodhound by

    Fandom Sherlock Holmes & Related Fandoms, Sherlock Holmes - Arthur Conan Doyle

    28 Aug 2026

    Summary

    In an alternate history Victorian England where some technology (most notably audio recording) is anachronistically advanced and the British Empire is starting to collapse, Dr. Watson distracts himself from his spoils of war (PTSD, a prosthetic arm, and a growing resentment towards British nationalism) by obsessively recording his very queer roommate and his very singular profession.
    This is planned to be a full rewrite/adaptation of the ACD canon that engages with and hopefully subverts and has interesting conversations about the themes of British imperialism, white supremacy, crime, poverty and gender.
    There will be eventual John/Mary/Sherlock but its going to take a While so buckle in. I'm putting the slow in slow burn.
    New chapter every other Friday.

    Summary

    Agatha did not know she was the daughter of William Heterodyne and Lucrezia Mongfish. She thought she was the beloved ward of Lady Teodora Vodenicharova, and the unexpected but equally beloved companion of Lord Saturnus Heterodyne.

    Agatha did not know that the debilitating headaches that earned her the scorn and (worse) the pity of her fellow Mechanicsburgers were caused by the locket her uncle gave her. She thought she was stupid, useless, and broken.

    Now she knows she is Lady Agatha Heterodyne, rightful ruler of Mechanicsburg. Now she knows she is a Spark.

    When she learns the truth, Agatha inadvertently kicks off a series of events that reopens old wounds, drags secrets into the light, and brings war to the doorstep of the all but defenseless Mechanicsburg. Saturnus struggles to crush his enemies with a town almost as broken as his body; Agatha, determined to undo the chaos she's unleashed, plunges into the depths of Castle Heterodyne.

    Raised by a literal saint and the devil incarnate, Agatha - with an unleashed mind, a burning spark, and a band of very unexpected allies - will fight to do the unthinkable: be a good Heterodyne and a good person.
