Well. Anyone who knows me and my fandoms knew this was bound to happen someday. I always knew I wanted to have Chapel dressed up as Sherlock, and as I added Rupert I remembered that the Sherlock fandom on tumblr refers to John Watson as a hedgehog – so it seemed fitting that Rupert should wear a tiny sweater that looks like Watson’s from the program. For those of you who haven’t seen it, BBC Sherlock is a really amazing series! There are only 6 episodes, but each one is 90 minutes and is essentially a small movie, so it’s all good. Also, the phone Chapel’s holding plays an integral part in the first episode of Sherlock, which is called “A Study in Pink.”

Anyway, I had wayyyyy too much fun drawing Chapel in her Sherlock cosplay. I regret nothing!
In my mind:
Moriarty = MASHY SPIKE PLATE = Portal 2 = Time to play!

I came here BECAUSE panel four was the ad. I was SURE it had to be amazing, and it was.

On the topic of BBC Sherlock, I'm torrenting the 3rd season as soon as it comes out in the UK. I'm not waiting half a year for it to reach the US!

I came to this comic because of the Tardis ad, but you know Emma, I would have come to read your comic if Panel 4 had been an ad.
Have you considered it? :)
Great comic by the way!

If they have to do with Chapel then here:
Chapel went to Hawaii to eat burritos with her rainbow colored unicorn which then went to Uranus to punch the purple hippo.

Chapel performs the greatest Yandere trance pose of great moe and psychopathic inclination.
2/29/12 reply
Oh my gosh this is the best one.
2/29/12 reply
You do know what "yandere trance" is, right?
2/29/12 reply
I don't get it, so I guess it's the best so far..... :)
2/29/12 reply
maybe it's time i let you in on something that is awesome. Yandere trance goes with ANYTHING. it is not gory nor x-rated. Yandere trance goes with Touhou, Vladimir Putin, transformers (the robots), your parents, minecraft (the PC game), any anime you dare to name, and any thing else you can think of, even maybe YOURSELF!

Just type it into your yahoo browser and see what i mean.

Hey Emma, do you have a random sentence?

Is it too late to enter? If not: Chapel ate chameleon food out of an old can while watching Much Ado About Nothing.

Chapel filled a mustard bottle with liquid bread and fed it to her sparkly yellow dodo bird before going outside and climbing a tree to sing normally nonmusical ingredients to a recipe and painted the leaves with stripes.

Chapel bought a snowy owl at the grocery store and also cooked dinner for her emaciated passenger pigeon before sending a letter to her great - grandmother in Russia.

Ooh! French! And I doubt that you are stupid if you were saying that..........
2/25/12 reply
Haha, thanks! I'm taking French in school and it's my absolute favorite class! Le francais est amusant et ma prof est geinale! J'aime prendre le cours de francais!
2/25/12 reply
Cool! My parents are teaching me Chinese, but I do also want to learn French one day!
2/26/12 reply
Wow, that's awesome! Mandarin was an offered course at my school in middle school, but I didn't take it! Are your parents Chinese?
2/26/12 reply
Well, my mom is Chinese but my dad is American...... he can speak it though!
2/26/12 reply
I've always wanted to learn French, along with Italian! Since I already know Spanish, it shouldn't be too hard!
2/26/12 reply
Yeah, you really should! It's a great language to learn, and more useful than most people might think.
2/26/12 reply
I have been trying to learn Irish language myself.
2/27/12 reply
My cousin goes to an all - Gaelick school, so she has to speak only in that language.
4/2/12 reply
I'm taking french too! But its probably less advanced.....
4/2/12 reply
Ha ha, you're not stupid! Far from it! And the comic will still be here if you check a day later :D
2/26/12 reply
 
Wow! I LOVE Chapel in the last panel! And Rupert!
2/25/12 reply
I'm glad you like them! I'm REALLY pleased with how they turned out in that last panel, I think they look super cool!
2/26/12 reply
 
OK! Somebody PLEASE explain to me what this magic stuff is about....... I have NO idea what you are talking about and I just wanna know what's going on.........
2/25/12 reply
Okay, basically, "magical girls" is a genre in anime and manga that tends to feature young girls with magical powers and floofy costumes. They often also have animal sidekicks. This all got started because of the commentator "Kyubey." Kyubey is a character in a magical girl anime called Puella Magi Madoka Magica. In this anime, the character Kyubey tries to convert people into magical girls. That's how this all got started! Hope that helps!
2/26/12 reply
Also, if you remember my Halloween strip, Chapel dressed up as a character called Cardcaptor Sakura. That's the main character of a famous magical girl anime, so if you look at that strip you can get an idea of what magical girls look like usually.
2/26/12 reply
Oh yeah, I remember that strip! Thanks for explaining it to me, it helps a lot.....
2/26/12 reply
 
I noticed that you are adding more subtle shading in your artwork Miss Emma. It looks much better now.

oh yea, you might want to update your Bio page now that you had another birthday. ;-)
2/25/12 reply
Yep! Bye Bye 14! Hello 15!!
2/25/12 reply
Oh, good point, I'd totally forgotten about that! I updated the bio on my tumblr blog, but not on here, ha ha!
2/26/12 reply
 
Love your comic! You have a real talent for storytelling, and the expressions you draw are priceless.
Binque 2/25/12 reply
Wow, thank you! That's SO sweet to hear!
2/26/12 reply
 
I like Chapel's expression in panel 2!
The whole wide-eyed thing is funny!
2/25/12 reply
I'm glad you like it! I think it's funny too! :D
2/26/12 reply
 
Nice strip! ^^

Ohh, Rupert looks adorable. LOL

2/24/12 reply
Doesn't he? A hedgehog wearing a tiny sweater, you can't really beat that in terms of cuteness!

Yay new comic have you seen the new Sherlock movie it's really great in other news there is going to be a doctor who star trek tng crossover comic YAY it only took them 50 years
Yarin 2/24/12 reply
Oh wow I didn't know that! And no, I don't watch the RDJ Sherlock movies, just the BBC miniseries.
2/26/12 reply
 
Sweet look Chapel! And I have seen a little of that first episode... but it was probably a different Sherlock Holmes.. I think it was called " Lady in Pink" but I am not too sure....
2/24/12 reply
Ugh! Sorry, I copied the same thing onto both comments!!! :P
2/24/12 reply
No problem! And it must've been a different Sherlock adaptation, because this first one is called "Study in Pink." Although there IS a lady in it who wears pink, so who knows...
2/26/12 reply
Yeah, I think it was a totally different Sherlock........ and yes, I remember there is a lady pink, who is dead......
2/26/12 reply
 
Sweet look Chapel!
2/24/12 reply
I know, right? So stylish, as expected of her! :D
2/26/12 reply
 
Chapel looks very nice in that coat, I think.

Also, I have absolutely no idea how you made her glow like that. I'm starting a webcomic and Photoshop is still pretty much a mystery to me.
2/24/12 reply
Cool! What is your webcomic called?
2/24/12 reply
It's called Caitlin + Kira. It's not up on the web yet but I'll let you guys know when it is. I won't give too much away, but I will say that Kira is a cat. Oh, and it's not realistic. AT ALL.
3/2/12 reply

2/25/12 reply
for that matter, if you really want the truth about Kyubey and the show that thing came from. get on tvtropes and look up "Puella Magi Madoka Magica". Just warning you all it is not plesant.
2/25/12 reply
Gross unpleasant? or..... um not appropriate pleasant? just wanna make sure cause I am a young person.....
2/25/12 reply
well, not gross nor XXX level of unpleasnt. just brace yourself for a bittersweet end at best, bad end for worse kinda of unpleasntness.
2/25/12 reply
ok......ir I ever go to that website anyway.....
2/25/12 reply
I looked it up. Yes, it is kinda creepy...but I never watch or read manga or anime, so I'm safe ;D
2/25/12 reply
you should read manga and watch some anime when you can. there is some really good stuff out there.
2/26/12 reply
TYPO! it should be if instead of ir!!!
2/26/12 reply
the website tvtropes can really suck you in and all of a sudden, you just spend all afternoon reading it. ><
2/26/12 reply
YES! Thank you!
2/25/12 reply
 
As much as I love "The great detective" I absolutely hate with a passion the new series.... why? Because it's made Sherlock "cool" He was already a popular detective now he's moreso. Why can't we get awesome new versions of other classic series? Where's the new high budget Anne of Green Gables film? Why don't they remake Seven little Australians? What about a new Arsen Lupin? how about we make a new series based on some OTHER old story. Sherlock has been remade and released dozens of times already, enough, please! (Also I don't like the new series being contemporyly set. I liked the Victorian setting!)
Stikibunn 2/24/12 reply
Well okayyy you never know, those other series might get rebooted as well, and the fact that Sherlock exists doesn't mean they WON'T be redone! And I think you should try the new series more, the writing is very good.
2/24/12 reply
:* :* :* Great job! Bravo! (Or Brava, I guess, since you're a girl.)
2/26/12 reply
I'm just a sourpuss. I don't know why I don't like the new Sherlock. Probably it's because I hate contemporay reboots (like the war of the worlds film adaptations, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and other films of that nature)
I just realised that it could be more fun if we all decided that Sherlock and Moriarty are Time Lords... that'd be entertaining!
Stikibunn 2/28/12 reply
*reads Stikibunn's comment and has no idea what is going on because HPPWNSALL is clueless*
*sees the word "Lupin"*
*eyes get wide and head snaps to screen*
LUPIN?!?!?! AS IN, LIKE, LUPIN, REMUS JOHN!?!?
Yeah, I know you're not talking about the HP Lupin (even though I have no idea what you are talking about...), but I had to get mah fangirling in. Consider it done.
