Vampiric Holmesian AU, or:
Author Cleverly Avoids Words that Rhyme with Firetruck


This poem's timing is ripe
In keeping with vampire hype.
It was just Sherlock's luck
When his fangs finally struck
He found that John wasn't his type.


'It's because I'm a werewolf,' John said
His hindfoot idly scratching his head.
'No, it's more that your shedding
Has ruined the bedding
Despite what you may have read.'

Thanks!
It is meant as a parody.. I hope it reads that way!

Yes, yes, don't worry - it's very clearly a parody from the first line onwards! ;-)

Hey that is cleverly done!
You gave Sherlock a good run
And John is banging his drum
werewolves and vampires are come!
And Mrs Hudson said this is fun!

Thanks!
And keep those sparkly vampires away from me! What a horrible role model, that Bella Swan! Worse even than Cinderella! At least JK Rowling got werewolves right: seriously out-of-control lunatics.

Perhaps it because they are reading it backwards?
(Well, backwards in a Western context at any rate!)
Thanks for the animation!
:D
