Perfer et Obdura fanart: “Daddy and John”

[dulcimergecko]

More fanart for dioscureantwins amazing 'This Is Where I Began' series.

"Sherlock opens the album on his lap. It’s mostly photographs of Daddy and, except for the cut of the clothes, it’s like looking at himself in a mirror. There are some photographs of Daddy and John together, posing for a camera that’s set up on a tree stump or other flat surface." -- Ch. 11 of Perfer et Obdura by dioscureantwins

Oh, thank you so much. This is so, so thoroughly happy. Gardiner!John looks so happy and they're so obviously in love. I can't even begin to see how I can thank you properly for this except by saying I hope you had as much joy drawing this as I had writing the fic.

Thank you!

You are so welcome! You have such a wonderful way of writing scenes that make my fingers itch to illustrate them!

That's such a lovely reply! I'll try and write you some more. :)

Oh that's absolutely delightful!

Sherlock's inherited a lot of Daddy's looks . . . and I adore John's freckles!

What a talent - such a drawing really 'belongs' with the words.

Oh thank you, I'm glad you think so! dioscureantwins mentions John's 'shock of red hair' and I have yet to meet a redhead that didn't have freckles.

This is gorgeous - I love that it's reminiscent of "our" Sherlock and John (you know what I mean *g*) while still very much Daddy and his own version of John.

Thank you! I tried very hard to do justice to dioscureantwins's descriptions of her characters. I'm glad you think so!
