jackwabbit: (Sherlock-221B)
[personal profile] jackwabbit
...this is out there. In case my last fic didn't give it away, let me explain something I recently discovered. In the Sherlock fandom, there exists a genre of fic called the "221B." These fics are precisely 221 words long and end with a word that starts with "B." Dude. I'm in heaven. It's like a tailor-made genre for little wabbit fics. I had to go find a special icon and everything! Whee!

I learnt about the 221b ficlet just the other day! Hadn't heard about it before but a friend linked me to this one:

. . . Is there a reason, like it's a reference to something? Or did they just come up with those rules randomly?
