**Miss Hudson** (ミス・ハドソン *Misu Hadoson*) is the landlady of 221B, the apartment of Sherlock Holmes and John H. Watson.

## Appearance

Miss Hudson is a young woman of average height with long brown hair that is usually braided up at the back.

Both pre- and post-timeskip she wears a pink dress with a white apron over the skirt. Pre-timeskip she has her sleeves rolled up and an exposed neck with a white undershirt, while post-timeskip her dress covers her arms and neck. On her chest, she wears a flower-like brooch.

## Personality

Miss Hudson is a confident and often stressed but also kind woman.

Even though she is often angry at Sherlock, she deeply cares for him and his safety. Despite him going missing for days at a time, she's happy whenever he is kind to her. Her friendliness and hospitality also extends to other people such as John or even people she's just met, like Mary.

Miss Hudson appears to be mature and empathetic, also able to read when others may be upset. She correctly identifies Sherlock's bad mood around Mary as jealousy, telling him to have manners. When talking with Mary, Miss Hudson also realizes the sincerity in her words.

She appears to be sensitive about her age, reacting harshly when Sherlock deduces her to be around 30 years old and even scaring Gregson into a tearful apology after he had made a remark about her age. She chooses to describe herself as "forever seventeen".

In addition, Miss Hudson is easily distracted and flattered when complimented on her looks.

## Biography

Miss Hudson often gets angry at Sherlock as he tends to be late with the rent. One day while arguing and wanting said payment, they see a friend of Sherlock's, who proposes that Sherlock gets a roommate and share the rent.

Sherlock finds some potential people for Miss Hudson to judge, but she disapproves of all of them. Later in the evening, Sherlock introduces her to John at a pub. She is initially suspicious, but after John helps save her from being harrassed, she expresses her gratitude and approves of him moving in.

After Sherlock is arrested, both Miss Hudson and John are taking to Scotland Yard for questioning.

## Origin
