'There has been some debate as to whether the Adventures of Holmes, or the narrative powers of Watson, declined with the passage of the years. When the same string is still harped upon, however cunningly one may vary the melody, there is still the danger of monotony. The mind of the reader is less fresh and responsive, which may unjustly prejudice him against the writer. To compare great things to small, Scott in his autobiographical notes has remarked that each of Voltaire's later pamphlets was declared to be a declension from the last one, and yet when the collected works were assembled they were found to be among the most brilliant. Scott also was depreciated by critics for some of his most solid work. Therefore, with such illustrious examples before one, let me preserve the hope that he who in days to come may read my series backwards will not find that his impressions are very different from those of his neighbour who reads them forwards.'

'Mr Sherlock Holmes to his Readers', STRAND magazine, March 1927, deleted by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle when he used the essay as the Preface to THE CASEBOOK OF SHERLOCK HOLMES.

[ineffably-chloe]

can we actually just talk for a sec for the REAL possibility of johnlock in sherlock and co? now i MIGHT be sounding extremely delusional, considering joel has said that there will not be any canon romantic relationships within the main 3, but guys. it would make sense for him to say that even if, or especially if, johnlock were to be canon.

and like one thing i’ve noticed is the gradual build-up of yes, let’s call it what it is, romantic tension between sherlock and john. ever since the six napoleans, we’ve been getting so much consistent ‘what the fuck was that’s. we’ve gotten sherlock saying that he loves watson, we’ve gotten ‘it was worth a wound’, we’ve gotten insomnia buddies, sherlock tucking in john to bed, we’ve got THE ENTIRETY OF THE LAST EPISODE, i mean it’s genuinely feeling like a build up.

and im afraid it might culminate in one singular moment during the fall, where john realises exactly how sherlock is important to him, through the loss of sherlock.

[my-johnlockficrecs]

rewatching sherlock after ages and sherlock is literally canonically gay. like. mrs hudson’s ‘if you’ll be needing two rooms’ angelo’s ‘you and your date’ like. these are people who know sherlock, have known him for a while, and they aren’t taking a dig at him. i can’t believe we were gaslit into believing otherwise….what the hell…

[my-johnlockficrecs]

watched the official pilot right after the unaired one, and wow. they really made him so much more cold acerbic ‘asshole’ etc. he was Soft in the unaired pilot. in this one he’s so much sharper

[childlikemperor]

the funnest part of reading books is telling people the plot like its hot gossip
