I haven’t drawn in aaaaages. Here’s some greaserlock!
If you like this AU as much as I do, you should read You Give Me Fever by michi (and read the warnings…). It’s set in 50’s America, from the POV of a rebellious, obsessive Sherlock, and his growing relationship with the new kid, John. Michi said she was careful with the words she used to craft the sentences, and it shows! The story is beautifully poetic and evocative, set deep in Sherlock’s point of view, and you learn so much about him just from the way he thinks about things. I loved this

Rap...
Rape has become endemic in South Africa, so a medical technician named Sonette Ehlers developed a product that immediately gathered national attention there. Ehlers had never forgotten a rape victim telling her forlornly, “If only I had teeth down there.”
Some time afterward, a man came into the hospital where Ehlers works in excruciating pain because his penis was stuck in his pants zipper.
Ehlers merged those images and came up with a product she called Rapex. It resembles a tube, with barbs inside. The woman inserts it like a tampon, with an applicator, and any man who tries to rape the woman impales himself on the barbs and must go to an emergency room to have the Rapex removed.
When critics complained that it was a medieval punishment, Ehlers replied tersely, “A medieval device for a medieval deed.”
- Half the Sky, Nicholas Kristof
Ok, seriously. What is that guy complaining about? It’s not like it’s a device that sits in a woman’s palm or anything, just waiting for unsuspecting men to shake her hand. It sits in her vagina. It’s THE EASIEST THING ON EARTH TO AVOID. IF YOU JUST DON’T RAPE PEOPLE!

I watched Piranha last night…I was almost in tears, I was laughing so hard. My wife and I were going ‘meedle meedle meedle meedle’ (which, apparently, is the sound piranhas make) and attacking one another with our piranha hands. Good times had by all. Except the people the piranhas ate.
Spoiler Alert?
What was up with the little claymation fish thing that appeared once and then was gone from the plot?
