And That's A Wrap!

I think I wasn't tagged in a gift reveal, as I only have three on the blog from this round, so if you don't see your gift on here tag me or message me and I'll reblog it.

But that's a wrap for now, otherwise! I'll start contacting those who wanted to talk over mod gifts and start working on the gifts tonight, provided I get my sleep pattern back to some semblance of normal. But as long as we have at least four participants by the cut-off date when I post sign-ups in October, we'll be back later this year for another round (and this year I will remember to send addresses for the gift card exchange, I promise)!

Molly Folly

To be sung to the tune of Granger Danger, because the lovely @theofficialkai517 said that she likes Star Kid and that is the only song of theirs I know. I may try to record myself singing it but until then Merry Belated Christmas, I hope you like it Kai :-)

Also shout out to @sherlollysecretsanta - imagine this being sung during the Coffin Scene and you’ll get the gist…

[SHERLOCK]

Here I am Face to face With a situation That I never thought I'd ever see It’s strange, how a game Can change your frame And make things nothing less than Obvious to me

It seems like my eyes have been forced open Something deep inside has changed That coffin’s full of words so long unspoken,  Words that seemed Folly… But it seems I’ve fallen in love Fallen in love Fallen in love I think I've Fallen in love Fallen in love With my darling Molly

[MYCROFT]

What? What the hell is this? You expect me to Care about this? Don't care about this It's just a little death threat Sherlock, get set This is folly

[SHERLOCK]

But she is the sweetest girl I've ever met And now, she’s in this trap our sister’s set 

Don't see how you can be so dead set 

That’s folly… 

Because I’ve fallen in love Fallen in love Fallen in love

I’m sure I’ve fallen in love

Fallen in love

Fallen in love With my darling Molly 

[SHERLOCK AND MYCROFT]I can’t let it show [MYCROFT]That should be easy  [SHERLOCK]But can’t I let her know [MYCROFT]Don’t be so cheesy [SHERLOCK AND MYCROFT]Come on Sherlock/MikeyYou gotta let it go You gotta let it go

[SHERLOCK AND MYCROFT]

Here we are Face to face With a situation That we never thought we’d ever see It’s strange, how a game Can change your frame And make things nothing less than Obvious to me

It seems like my eyes have been forced open Something deep inside has changed That coffin’s full of words so long unspoken,  Words that seemed Folly…

And yet you’ve/I’ve fallen in love

Fallen in love

Fallen in love

Indeed you’ve/I’ve fallen in love

Fallen in love

Fallen in love

With the lovely Molly

With the lovely Molly 

With the lovely Molly… 

[SHERLOCK]

This can’t be folly!

Anonymous asked:

What Irish Christmas tradition do you most think would make a great fit for Sherlolly? (Or, what would be the worst, ie, funniest, tradition?)

I think there might be two.

The first, which would be a great fit for Sherlolly, is Nollaig na mBan or Women’s Christmas (sometimes called Little Christmas). That’s December 6th when all the Christmas decorations are supposed to come down, and women are supposed to be given a break from all household chores (hence Women’s Christmas).

The other tradition is playing cards on Christmas Eve, sometimes all night, sometimes up to midnight, it depends on the family. It’s an old tradition now, and dying out unlike Women’s Christmas which has had a real resurgence in the last few years.

I do have a Sherlolly story based (VERY VERY LOOSELY) around an Irish Christmas tradition called the Running of the Wren, which traditionally takes place on St Stephen’s Day. You can read the fic here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/36085654

You can read about the actual tradition here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wren_Day

No Sherlolly that I could see, but there were three BBC Mystrade fic this round (one of which I wrote as a pinch hit) and I know there's some Mystrade shippers on here.
