This entire story leads up to The Hound of the Baskervilles.
Y/N L/N, a 29-year-old orphan who lost her parents a year ago in a car crash.
Y/N has red eyes. Why? No one seems to know, but you weren't born with them. Hiding them with brown contacts,(brown hides red the best.) because the last time you didn't wear them your childhood friend Henry went insane, thinking you had become some hound. You could go to your aunt but she's rather famous and you prefer to live modestly, so you find yourself standing in front of 221B Baker Street.
Sherlock immediately notices your contacts and gets more intrigued when you forbid him from looking into it or your past. Intrigued by you, he pulls you along for murder mysteries. All while he tries to figure you out.

A Study in Chaos
221B Baker Street was not supposed to be my final destination. It was a pit stop. A temporary, financially questionable decision in one of the most expensive cities in the world. A place to exist quietly. To keep my head down, drink overpriced coffee, and avoid unpacking my emotional baggage. Then I met Sherlock Holmes. And quiet ceased to exist. One minute, I was just a tenant in a slightly dysfunctional flat. The next, I was the unwilling documentarian of absolute madness- ✔ Sherlock, the world's only consulting detective, who refuses to function like a normal human being. ✔ John Watson, who has reached new heights of exhaustion thanks to said detective. ✔ Mrs. Hudson, who is not a housekeeper but absolutely runs this place like a benevolent overlord. ✔ Molly Hooper, the forensic pathologist who is finally terrifying Sherlock (to my endless delight). ✔ Mycroft Holmes, who controls the British government but, more importantly, cannot figure out why I exist. ✔ Lestrade, who shows up mostly to suffer. ✔ And Rosie Watson, who is officially my tiny, all-knowing best friend. I am not a detective. I am not a hero. I am just the one thing Sherlock Holmes cannot deduce. My name is Safa. I babysit Rosie for extra cash, I document Baker Street's chaos out of sheer pettiness, and I gloat about my food just to drive Sherlock insane. I tell myself I don't belong here. That I am still just passing through. But the thing about living at Baker Street? You don't realize you're home until it's time to leave. And for once, Sherlock Holmes never saw it coming.Complete
