Very cool. And what an original response to the prompt.

I've added an art tag, and also given you an author tag (for use with both ficlets and artwork).

I was teaching an essay with the word 'homunculus' in it and had pulled up the main picture.... and well...

Neat. Kinda weird, but neat!

Thanks. And I agree it is a bit "Museum of the Weird"

Must admit I wasn't expecting anyone to come up with art for this prompt ^^ Excellent.

I like the pun in the title. Maybe the homunculus Holmes lives in Holmes' brain-attic and desperately tries to keep things in order - your picture does rather suggest Holmes surrounded by his thoughts.

You are too kind!

Sheldon Cooper defines homunculus as a perfectly formed miniature human... and I was teaching something about the homunculus and, well, this happened...
