"Not proper, Snicket. Not proper at all." "I saved you one."
*** I have caught this gallery up as far as the beginning of my Lemony Snicket Dog Nonsense*. Buckle in for these because even leaving a lot of them out it's going to be quite a pileup. 👍 *This will also include Snicket-adjacent nonsense. Like Basic Eight dogs. yes I drew basic eight dogs. a lot of them.

In Stain'd-By-The-Sea, Lemony and Theodora kept getting called in to solve mysteries. That was how the plot of the first three books began - trying to find the Bombinating Beast, trying to find Cleo Knight, trying to find the culprit who had set those fires.
Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if a pair of worried parents had asked Theodora and Lemony to help them find their young child who had disappeared without a trace after hearing a noise outside in the middle of the night....

'Sugar' Theodora Markson Theory: Part 2
Did Theodora LIE to Lemony about her chaperone ranking in V.F.D?/Why is Lemony a compulsive liar?
This theory is a follow-up to one I made a while ago:
At the end of the above theory, I stated:
"seeing as she's 52nd out of 52 chaperones (or something like that, it has been a while since I've read ATWQ), if she tells V.F.D. her name is Sugar, she's BOUND to get kicked out of the organisation."
before citing the correct information from the Snicket Wiki:
"P.S. I did get it right: On the list of chaperones, she is ranked 52nd of 52, though she believed she was ranked tenth
(Snicket Wiki)"
What I failed to mention, however, was not just the fact that Theodora was bound to be kicked out of V.F.D. but the fact that Theodora KNEW she was bound to get kicked out of V.F.D., if she ever exposed her real first initial.
This is the likeliest reason she kept her name under wraps, for fear of losing everything - her true friends such as Sharon Haines, what little was left of her status, etc.
However, if Theodora knew she was bound to get kicked out of V.F.D., why did she tell Lemony she thought she was tenth?
THEORY: Theodora lied to Lemony because she didn't trust him (e.g., the way she trusted Bertrand) with her biggest secret - she was scared he was going to rat her out, accidentally or intentionally, to V.F.D. and she would be fired.
It was therefore easier to let Lemony believe she was higher than she was, rather than run the associated (no ATWQ reference intended) risks of telling him the terrible truth.
This was a dangerous move on Theodora's part, however, as it was [arguably] this action, combined with her excessive belittling that ignited the compulsive liar in Lemony Snicket.
Lemony always wanted to know what the S stood for, but he never got a true answer. He only found out years later, from Bertrand Baudelaire, his absolute archnemesis; their rivalry was worse than Lemony and Olaf's.
Bertrand was a 'better' apprentice to Theodora than Lemony ever was.
Bertrand was a(n existent/actual) husband of Beatrice Baudelaire, and the father of her children.
This leads us to one thing:
BERTRAND IS THE SOLE CAUSE OF LEMONY'S TRAUMA. EVERY TIME LEMONY FOUND SOMEBODY HE THOUGHT HE COULD LOVE AND TRUST IN, BERTRAND TOOK THAT AWAY FROM HIM, IN/ADVERTENTLY.
Uh, yeah. Not really much else to say - comment below!

Lemony uses the phrase "word which here means" right after he heard Theodora use it, echoing her speech patterns, which people often do.
This is the first time he uses it. He continues to define words this way all throughout ATWQ and, of course, ASOUE.
Which means that Lemony and Theodora did not like each other and did not get along, but he inherited his trademark pattern of speech from her.

Lemony’s relationships with Theodora and Moxie are both subversions of the ‘Holmes and
Watson’ trope as it is traditionally found, in which a highly intelligent but arrogant and somewhat manipulative detective is accompanied by a close friend who admires them greatly and narrates the story.
First: Lemony and Theodora. Lemony is Theodora’s apprentice, and is therefore technically in a position of lower status to her. From Theodora’s perspective, this makes her the Holmes figure, and him the Watson, which is backed up by the fact that Lemony is the one to narrate the story. However, although Theodora has the almost narcissistic self-confidence and the tendency to keep Lemony in the dark, she lacks the academic intelligence and detective skills of a true Holmes figure, and Lemony does the vast majority of the work, mainly without her. It is quite possible that Theodora deliberately opts out of cases and lets Lemony take care of them due to the insecurity she hides behind her arrogant exterior, subverting the arrogant part of the Holmes archetype and adding a creative edge to the aspect of manipulation.
Secondly, Lemony and Moxie. They have a far more traditional Holmes and Watson relationship, with all the traditional aspects. They are good friends, Moxie admires Lemony greatly, he quite often uses her and keeps her in the dark about things but she stays loyal nonetheless, they have vague romantic subtext, and the scene where they meet at Handkerchief Heights in ?1 is even a homage to Sherlock Holmes story The Hound Of The Baskervilles, which interestingly enough also features a villainous naturalist and local legends regarding monsters being used by the villain to frighten people and conceal his scheme. One of the main things that sets them apart from traditional incarnations of the trope is that despite the fact that she constantly writes everything down, she does not in fact narrate the story. In other words, she fulfils the role of a classic Watson figure in every way except for the most important one.

I have the headcanon that Theodora's first name is something normal and never hinted at in any snicketverse media. That instead we got Sunny and Solitude as the more likely answers because that is what Bertrand and Lemony respectivally belived based on their very different aprendiship experiences.
Because the VFD kids are raised to look for clues even when there aren't any and presentend to an unsolvable mistery they start to see their lived experience and empirical beliefs as proof. So Bertrand who saw support and friendlyness in an overall probably harsh situation saw her as Sunny, light and happy and supportive while Lemony who only felt connected to Theodora via their mutual loneliness saw her as Solutide. Neither was close. Because Theodora wasn't giving them hints, she just wanted to keep the mistery for personal reasons. But to them it was the true.
