Description Moooore cabinlock!

Martin spills the beans because he knows Sherlock so well and he’s Martin and doesn’t know when to shut up.

I tried to make it easier to read and I think i just made it harder. I’ll go back to just posting the raw sketches. Just taking a break from work

I don't think that either Sherlock or John are gay, but I do love this. This is exactly what Martin would do. BTW his expressions are too cute.

Oh my! That was great!!! I love Martin! This totally reminded me of when he was talking to the female pilot.
Something like:
Fem!Pilot: "Is he always like that?"
Douglas: "He's really bad at talking to oher pilots."
Fem!Pilot: "Oh good I thought it mightr be because I'm a woman."
Douglas: "He's atrocious at speaking to women. So, you see, you present the perfect storm."

Allam In reply to MissRavenRose [2012-05-03 06:46:32 +0000 UTC]

THAT IS EXACTLY THE SCENE I WAS THINKING OF! It's Martin at his finest, so sincere and honest, but so lost! And I think he would do something similar with any of Sherlock's colleagues, because he just KNOWS they are comparing him to the great Sherlock. But wit John...

Yes, join me, won't you on a trip to headcanon-land....

I see Martin really wanting to impress John, because Martin really respects Sherlock and if SHERLOCK likes this guy...to borrow from Arthur, he must be brilliant! I think John would be fascinated by a Holmes boy that came out so normal and of course be his usual charming self which would make Martin more comfortable, which only serves to make the moments when he fumbles (because it's Martin and he WILL fumble) all the more awkward for Martin scrambles to regain good-graces, not realizing that there's very little he could do to fall out of favor with John, the most put-upon man in London. Does that make sense? I'm not sure I explained very well. Martin wants John to like him, basically, because Sherlock likes John.

Haha, people be warned, if you make comments, you never know when I'll spring crazy head-canon things on you and leave comments that have no business being so large. I've been commenting now for about a week. And everyone reading is BOOORREDD.

MissRavenRose In reply to Allam [2012-05-03 13:00:13 +0000 UTC]

That made perfect sense. I can see it from Martin's point of view because I'm a little sister. And thank you for sharing headcanon.

...Am I allowed to have Sherlock/Cabin Pressure properly explained?

I'm a Sherlockian, but have only listened to bits of one episode of Cabin Pressure, right around the time I stumbled across the crossover anyway.

Allam In reply to TimeLord10WizardMoon [2012-05-03 18:18:42 +0000 UTC]

Totally! Is it the crossover that confuses you? Or just Cabin Pressure?

Well the Crossover, Cabinlock, more or less springs from them being both BBC and REALLY REALLY comes from Benedict Cumberbatch. You said you're a Sherlockian so I'm sure you know that that's Sherlock but he also plays Martin Crieff, the incredibly awkward, aviation obsessed, totally lovable pilot. There's really no way to know Martin but to listen to the series, and then fall undeniably in love with him, all the other characters and the series.
The crossover itself, as far as explanation goes...(this is what I said to someone else who asked) For me personally, it's based off of something they cut out of season 1 of BBC. Originally, they were going to allude to a young Sherlock having caught his father in an affair. (House M.D. which is obviously based on Sherlock Holmes, did something similar too.) In my headcanon, Martin is the product of that affair...making him the younger half-brother, raised by his mother's legitimate family, the Crieffs.

Does that answer? Sorry I'm terrible at short replies! But feel free to ask questions, I love to answer them.

It's great!

I'd just seen a couple of your other drawings, and I find the idea adorable, but I didn't know enough about Cabin Pressure to really get them! D':

But now I most definitely have to listen to more so that I may completely understand this adorable x-over!

Allam In reply to TimeLord10WizardMoon [2012-05-05 07:38:40 +0000 UTC]

You should listen to them because they are amazing! That is reason enough! But yes, Crossovers are also a good reason, lol

Series three of Cabin Pressure is recorded after Sherlock had started so there's a whole episode of Martin trying to solve a mystery and it's endlessly adorable with this crossover in mind. He even tries to say "Once you've ruled out the improbable etc..." but comes out all jumble and it's the moment where if you weren't already thinking about Cabinlock, you are now and nothing hurts.

I am like this...so awkward. So a teacher suggested an excellant solution: I carry biscuits round and shove one in my mouth when I know I am babblin' and offer one to the person I'm talking to so they can't be angry!!!
.....what I meant to say was this is so funny anyway. Ahem...*shoves biscuit in mouth, leaves one for you and shuffles off*
