Sherlock: A Twitterature

Summary:

Basically what happened when I thought "What if Sherlock was a Gen Z Meme Lord™?" and I made it a Twitter Fic.

Follows canon at first, but the absence of Moriarty causes things to just kind of ricochet around and blow up.

Notes:

Please note that I know practically nothing about Twitter

Mrs. Hudson is offering me a flat, but one of her conditions is that I find a flatmate, which is very rude, honestly I am 21 years old I don't need help not making friends. But I still need a flat, so if anyone's willing to move in with an annoying genius....

Dr Long John @John_H_Watson

I just recently finished medical school and was in need of a flat, so @mikestamford helped me out. However, this new flatmate of mine is very odd. He knows practically my entire life story and I only know his name. Plus he's arrogant and rude and doesn't have basic social etiquette

Oh come now John you're being unfair. You also know that I play the violin when I'm thinking and that sometimes I don't speak for days on end. That's not nothing.

It is nothing when you remember that you know all about my sister's drinking habits.
