“You have been in this particular mood for months,” Holmes stated. “You are in pain, but worse than that, you feel useless. You would clearly be more comfortable – and productive – away from London. Therefore, it seems a permanent relocation is in order.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When Watson is no longer able to keep step with Sherlock Holmes, he expects to be left behind. As it turns out, Holmes has already devised a plan.

One of my favourite scenes (hands down) As well as being extraordinarily beautiful Marilyn Monroe definitely had comic timing. * * * * * * * #marilynmonroe #gentlemenpreferblondes #LoreleiLee #Piggy #wingsofmercury #justhurryup #supergorgeousness #instagay #helleaux #learningtosee #inspirationiseverywhere #instagrammer #videoart #appropriation #artfag #arthag #StayAtHomeModel (at Chez What?) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCCGmwtjb7K/?igshid=em2rnqogp4pw

Remembering the luminous Marilyn Monroe on the 59th anniversary of her passing. Here a vision in gold lamé, a gown designed by William Travilla, that we only see a glimpse of in a brief scene from Gentlemen prefer blondes. #marilynmonroe #marilynmonroe59th #neverforget #loreleilee #gentlemenpreferblondes #goldlamé #williamtravilla #59thanniversary #fanart #alejandromogolloart https://www.instagram.com/p/CSK3TaDIqar/?utm_medium=tumblr

I had dreamed of London day and night, and now I had returned, but I was not home yet. It would not be until Moran was caught and I could finally reveal myself to my old friend Watson that I would be able to find a modicum of peace.

Okay, Idk why only half of the tags work grrrrrr, but I'm tired of troubleshooting :D

Rags to World Famous Musician (18+ Version)

After her encounter with Cassandra at the Waterside Warble, Lorelei was riding high. But, her exhaustion was taking over. After picking up a small tent with the money she’d made from playing her guitar all day, she went back to the lot her parents had bought her, and set up the tent. After a while, she was definitely annoyed - why were tents so incredibly difficult to assemble? She finally managed to straighten it out, just as the sun was going down. Climbing into the tent, she fell asleep, and before she knew it, she was awake and headed towards Orchid A Go Go.

(18+ Ahead)

When she got to Orchid A Go Go, she spotted someone at the bar, looking at her from across the way. She brushed it off as some drunk weirdo, just being a creep. Until she remembered that she registered to be an escort on Lost Eden. Her heart started thumping in her chest - she had never had sex before... what if he wanted to...? She brushed the thought off, and walked over to her normal place, pulled out her guitar, and started playing. It wasn’t long after she had gotten through her first two songs that the man came up. He didn’t introduce himself, but explained that he recognized her from her Lost Eden page. He asked if she was available to have some ‘fun’ in the bathroom. She nodded, staying quiet as she led him to the bathroom. And, she lost her virginity. 

After they were done, she felt some simoleons being shoved hastily into her hands. Looking down, her eyes widened.  §450, just for an hour of her time. Luck was really turning around for Lorelei. 

Lorelei continued playing for a few more hours, and right when she was going to leave, she heard a large commotion coming from inside of the club. 

She couldn’t contain her curiousity, and walked inside to see what everyone was losing their minds over. And then she saw her - Luna Chandran. A global superstar, daughter of Elektra Maethoriel. She couldn’t believe it! Walking up to Luna, she took a big breath and asked for an autograph from her - and she got a laugh, and then a yes. 

After the encounter was over, and Luna left Orchid a Go Go, Lorelei couldn’t seem to calm down her fast heartbeat. But, she knew she had to see if she could get something - anything for her autographed photo of Luna. 

After spending about 20 minutes on the phone with an appraiser, Lorelei finally caught a lucky break...  §3200 just for the photo of Luna! One step closer to her dream, she headed back to her tent to think about her next game plan. 

Money:  §3788

Is this the way to Europe, France? 😂 I can’t get enough of Lorelei Lee and Dorothy Shaw in Gentlemen prefer blondes! As I’ve often said, it’s the first Marilyn Monroe film I saw as a kid and remains my favourite. It’s a delightful from beginning to end. And that soundtrack! What is your favourite part of the film? #marilynmonroe #loreleilee #janerussell #dorothyshaw #byebyebaby #gentlemenpreferblondes #oldhollywood #classichollywood #vintagehollywood #goldenagefhollywood #fanart #alejandromogolloart (en Old Hollywood) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLW3n1-FjwQ/?igshid=1dp0ax0511c0z

[i-dont-talk-for-days-on-end]

I think of myself as a practical woman. I am proud to say that I have always been able to manage my household in the most efficient manner, purchasing only what is of good quality without requiring any unnecessary expenses. I have one possession, however, that is an exception to that rule. This is the story of how not only one but two of my tenants returned to Baker Street, and how I came to own one of London’s finest tea services as a result.

Mr Holmes returns. Dr Watson leaves. Mrs Hudson realises that London’s greatest detective might require a little assistance with winning the good doctor back.
