Rated Teen just for possible threats of violence and possible ideas used later in the story.
A series of strange events, the least of which is a psycho- no wait- sociopathic pony appearing in Twilight's castle and an urgent request from Dragon Lord Ember. Just what is going to happen next?
A Sherlock Crossover.

7150895 Thanks :twilightsmile:. If you are wondering why his story went down for a bit, I didn't notice your comment and decided bto put it through the mod queue before going to bed, just to double-check.

My only complaints.
1. Sherlock wouldn't be able to tell Twilight was a librarian from looking at her, a bibliophile sure, in the habit of falling asleep during her studies, ok reasonable. But nothing to indicate she was a librarian.
2. Twilight would know what a human was, I have to assume aside for being anthro this follows show cannon, Twilight visited the human world BEFORE she got her castle.
3. Lastly Spike even as an athro would be reptilian, Sherlock would notice that and likely comment on it. Seems unlike the Ponies would be anthromorphc horses while Dragon looked like humans.
My advice aside form these minor details is might you describe what the other characters are wearing not just Sherlock?

Thank you for the feedback. I will ow address your comments point by point.
1. If you have not seen the show Sherlock, or even if you have, it may be difficult to understand that Sherlock uses both Deduction and Induction. Deduction is using only the facts in your hypothesis and Induction is taking leaps which make sense. Even one who spends a lot of time with books can be linked with probably spending a lot of time in a library, coupled with the habit of organization present in all the rooms, it can be safe to assume that Twilight would be working or has worked in a place which required a strict sorting system. Both of these facts together give a leap towards being a librarian. If that was too complex, I will explain in more detail.
2. this does indeed follow show canon, however as with visiting the human world depicted in Equestria Girls, compared to the world portrayed in this story, there would not be much of a leap except setting, and so I imagine Equestria Girls being, the inverse, Anthro Twilight finding a world inhabited by quadrupedal ponies in a school setting. Also, Sherlock only ever mentioned human in the comparison to a half-horse half-human creature, referencing what Twilight was. He never said he was human himself. Also, if the quadruped EQG is followed in this example, it would make sense as to Twilight not knowing what Holmes was on about. Final point, Holmes also mentioned horses I believe, which Twilight would not have encountered. (Yes, horses and ponies ARE different. Think for this setting Humans and Neanderthals in this world.)
3. About this, I can only assume you haven't read chapter 2 (as your comment was posted on chapter 1), and so you haven't read my description of Ember. My idea is firstly, as Spike grew up in a pony world, his body would have adapted slightly. Also, I think in this world as dragons mature, they would become more reptilian, starting off as vaguely similar to ponies, Spike just hasn't changed much as he hasn't yet reached- I suppose- Dragon Puberty.
As for your comment on describing clothes, I skimmed over Twilight wearing a dressing gown and mentioned Ember's golden armour. I didn't put too much description into either Starlight or Spike, and I haven't mentioned what Twilight wore for the trip, but I can describe her clothes in the next chapter, which will have a section the next day, if this would make you happy.

I'm really getting into this now, I love a good mystery, proably why I love Sherlock! :pinkiehappy:

Hm, color me intrigued. Please continue.

This is perfect
Sherlock is perfect, the reactions are just a little off on sherlocks end, but still really good. I can't wait to read more because I just saw sherlock and mlp today

This is amazing
Don't stop or else your worse then Moffat
