It’s mad. I think he might be mad. He was certainly arrogant and really quite rude and he looks about 12 and he’s clearly a bit public school and, yes, I definitely think he might be mad but he was also strangely likeable. He was charming. It really was all just a bit strange.

So tomorrow, we’re off to look at a flat. Me and the madman. Me and Sherlock Holmes.

Man and Woman: Share 20 seconds of screentime

Audience: These two are in love

Two Men: Die for each other, kill for each other, come back to life for each other, are the most important people in each others' lives

Audience: Bros. No homo. I'm gonna need a 100,000 word essay with referenced sources on why these two could possibly be the slightest bit romantic and I'm still not going to believe it. God, why does everything have to be gay?! Can't you accept that friendships exist?!?!?!

I will continue to scream the following:

Mary could have been used to show that your entire purpose in life doesn’t have to be to settle down, find yourself a good man, get married, and have his child. She did not have to desperately crave a normal life.

Molly could have been used to show a woman who fell in love with a man who didn’t love her back, who pined, and then simply got tired of consistently being used and degraded and properly moved on. She did not need to constantly chase after a man who was in no way good for her.

Irene could have been used to show a woman and a man simply enjoying each other’s company - no sex, no romance - simply two people matching wits and smirking about it and just enjoying the game. She did not need to be the unavailable sex object - I mean, lesbian - that eventually gets seduced by the right man.

Eurus could have just not been a thing at all.

All true & all infuriating

Someday, the true story may be told.

[chrispineofficial]

the thing that really fucks me up about martin freeman is he casually displays the confidence of a man who knows he could absolutely destroy you sexually and therefore i have no choice but to believe that this is true

🌈height✅difference 🌻between Sherlock and John 🔝while hugging👏

[heurtebizzz]

So I’ve heard Moffat, when asked by a fan about where the relationship between John and Sherlock would go, said that they just go on solving crimes together, and that the fan should go and read the books.

Well, I’ve read the books. Over and over. Let me quote from memory just a few examples of where the relationship between Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John H. Watson went. In the books.

Sherlock Holmes:

wines and dines Holmes regularly

during one of the lunches they had together, he chats him up freely and on various topics (not about crime solving, ya know)

takes him out to concerts, one of them being no less than Tchaikovsky’s performance in London

goes for long walks in the park with him, during which they are so comfortable with each other, they don’t even have the need to talk

plays his violin upon Watson’s request

shares Turkish baths with him regularly

and, well, nearly kills the bad guy for shooting Watson in the leg (and openly threatens to kill him had Watson been seriously harmed)

Dr. John Watson:

drops everything and rushes across Europe to take care of Holmes as the latter is having a nervous breakdown

in doing so, covers the distance between England and France in 24 hours, which is not a small feat, considering the slow-ish state of Victorian transportation

takes mentally exhausted Holmes out to the country to recuperate, not once but at least twice

cares deeply about his well-being, especially his drug use and mental health

shares Turkish baths with him regularly

saves Holmes’ life, when both get under the influence of a deadly hallucinogenic drug

I don’t know about you, but to me, this goes on beyond solving crimes together. 

[ravenmorganleigh]

I don’t remember Watson ever physically assaulting Holmes or marrying an assassin, or forgiving the assassin that shot Holmes, either…

[johnlockismyreligion]

Things that are not in the Canon:

Holmes and Adler having a sexual/romantic interest in each other (Irene Adler marries another man and lives happily with him);

A third/fourth Homles brother or sister;

Mary Morstan being an assassin;

Watson and Morstan having children (never mentioned in the canon so, to me, they didn’t have any);

Holmes killing someone.

So, if Moffat would kindly stop to quote the Canon only when it suits him, it would be much appreciated.
