Headcanon Meme Revived
Did this not long ago, but what the heck?
Stolen from tumblr (and edited slightly), because headcanon memes are my fave.
Give me the name of a character I write or have written and I'll tell you:
-What they smell like
-How they sleep (sleeping position, schedule, etc)
-What music they enjoy
-How much time they spend getting ready every morning
-Their favourite thing to collect
-Their family (siblings, parents, extended, etc.)
-A weird/obscure fear they have
-A secret skill
OCS and AUs welcome, as always.
Putting this here to make it easier to respond from my iPad if necessary:
I did Anderson, Arthur Shappey, and Kevin Ryan last go round.

What they smell like: very clean; very soapy, and the same aftershave he's always used, because that's the one his father gave him and he's never found a reason to change it. It has varying notes, but the oakmoss is the one that lingers.
How they sleep: Very rarely, but when he does, he collapses in a heap on the bed and snores. He's also taught himself to lucid dream, so he can keep working on problems while he's asleep.
What music they enjoy: Most music, really, with the exception of manufactured pop music. He has a huge range of CDs from various cases over the years. He never listens to them except for when he needs to drown out his thoughts, whereupon he cranks them up so loudly in his bedroom that John can hear it perfectly upstairs.
How much time they spend getting ready every morning: It varies, depending on how anxious he is to get out of the house, where he's going, and if he's bothering to get dressed. He likes to keep clean, so he always showers even just to put his pyjamas back on. If he needs to look good, it takes about half an hour to shower, shave, and get his hair to lie down.
Their favourite thing to collect: He has a collection of bottle caps inherited from his father.
Their family: (not sure which verse you want, so delete Q if necessary)
Edward 'Siger' Holmes (father, deceased, former code breaker for GSHQ)
Metrodora Violet Holmes (mother, homemaker, hobbyist, and world traveller)
Mycroft [Some Middle Name that Sherlock never stored] Holmes (older brother, professional pain-in-the-arse, thinks he runs the country)
Trevelyan Sherrinford [? he thinks that's right, maybe that's Mycroft's middle name; one of them is Sherrinford, anyway] Holmes (younger brother, some sort of government drone, seems to think his name is 'Q')
A weird/obscure fear they have: Sherlock has no genuine fears, merely strong dislikes, which include: being trapped in conversations he can't find a way out of, being bored, having people touch his back between his shoulder blades, and people moving his things so he can't find them easily.
A secret skill: He can blow smoke rings.

Thank you!

Thank you for asking! It lets me use some of my headcanon that I can't fit in elsewhere.
