    Summary

    This is the first of a series of essays I wish to write on the Gender Politics of Sherlock fandom. There are many things I wanted to say at the official panel but was unable to, since it was derailed by a group of individuals who showed up with the intention of intimidating and harassing the panel moderator. In future essays, I’d like to share my thoughts on femslash, Mary Sues and the fridging of female characters, on heteronormativity in slash, and on queer representation beyond slash (bisexual, pansexual, asexual and trans people in fanworks and fan spaces). I’d like to touch on race and being a queer Woman of Color in a fandom mostly interested in White male characters.

    Before I get to those subjects, however, I feel a need to return to the original intended topic: the essay I began writing on my phone on the plane.

    And that essay is on the subject of noncon fanworks.

    Summary

    In another world, where Alan Blunt remained the Director of Special Operations, perhaps, or Mrs Jones never reunited with her daughter, Alex finds out that Yassen Gregorovich survived Cray’s bullet only when they run into one another out in the field. A panicked, heat of the moment encounter, with no time to digest it, survival the only thing that matters. Seconds to decide if Yassen’s friend or foe; the decision cemented in an instant.

    That isn’t how it goes in this world.

    Five years; five encounters. Sometimes the most unexpected of meetings can have the biggest impact. The question is - where's it all leading?
