Falling into Fiction

Summary: Woman or sea creature - did it really matter? Molly was as mysterious and beautiful as she was vicious; her very existence a scientific improbability. From the moment he saw her, his fate was set, Sherlock would never let a mystery remain unsolved.

A/N - If the first scene of this fic looks a bit familiar, it’s because I also posted it as part of my Universally Monstrous series. Those fics are all one shots on the shorter side, and this thing… this thing sort of ballooned on me.

At one point I posted that I was trying to come up with a plot that didn’t sound like a ripoff of “The Shape of Water” for the Creature from the Black Lagoon fic, but then sunken_standard left me a comment that has stuck with me ever since – “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, though. Let Molly bang the fishman.”

Then I remembered a made-for-cable-tv movie from 2001 called “She Creature”. When you mix that, “The Shape of Water”, and some Molly and Sherlock …

This fic is dedicated to you, sunken_standard.

Does it count as bestiality if someone is a gillman/sea creature? I don’t want to google that so let’s just pretend it doesn’t.

Summary: “I think I’m looking at a fake, albeit a well-constructed one.” The Skipper huffed, but Sherlock ignored him. Surely the woman in the tank would need to surface soon, or risk betraying the presence of a breathing apparatus of some sort. His mind raced to calculate how long the average human female could survive without air before losing consciousness.

A/N - I started the Universally Monstrous series during 2018’s Sherlolly Halloween, but I’ve only managed to finish six so far. Let’s see if I can get the other three done for 2020 Sherlolly Halloween.

The fic below started as the first scene of a longer story that I’m hoping to finish in time for Halloween. Fingers crossed.

A/N - I started the Universally Monstrous series during last year’s Sherlolly Halloween, but due to health reasons I only finished three of the nine Classic Universal Monsters. I finished Frankenstein earlier in 2019, so let’s see if I can get the other five done for 2019 Sherlolly Halloween.

Not beta’d because I’m on a deadline. I’ll get it looked at later, promise. Probably.
