On the Train to London, 1869
That must have been the longest and hardest trip they had to make. After everythingâthe death, the trauma, the trial, the funeralâthey still had to endure the long journey.. I can only imagine how physically and emotionally draining that was for them, stranded for weeks between two places they once called home.. They left with nothing, no oneâonly grief, and each other.

The Sherlock that you will meet in the beginning will be a different man by the time the case is solved. What will his transition be like? Well, that is for you to experience yourself.

Come visit Cordona!
Keep reading
Decided to start collecting all of Sherlockâs thinking poses. At least I think thatâs all of them. :D
Tag yourself!
I find it interesting that the first ever memory sherlock recalls on cordona is that of a policeman at the manor. I keep thinking what if that was a vague flashback to when the police arrived to investigate violetâs death and sherlock conflated the two memories? finding out that a police investigation took place the day his mother died could have been a trigger. what if jon sensed it was bubbling up to the surface and was like ânope. fuck that. too soonâ and made sherlock recall this other fun, innocent memory also involving a policeman instead to distract him and further delay the inevitable? Multiple times throughout the game it's hinted that jon knew the whole story (and he doesn't try to deny it when sherlock confronts him about it) which makes sense considering his role. so him being able to influence what and when sherlock recalls things isn't far-fetched if we think of him as sort of like the gatekeeper of bad memories. there's also âstill, Sherry was cheered by the recollection of the good old daysâ kind of reads âi'm glad my intervention worked and it cheered him up!"
this french guy who sits alone in the hotel foyer and if you interact with him says âpardon monsieur, but I'm not in the mood to talkâ ?
My headcanon is that's Arsene Lupin (in disguise probably). we know that he was staying in the hotel around the same time as sherlock so it would make sense if they bumped into each other unknowingly at some point. he sounds very similar to the voice in the recordings as well. and even after you're done asking about the cane and have no evidence pinned, he's one of the few npcs in the game who remain interactable. he just stands out to me idk!
Help I always thought this flashback scene was mycroft hugging sherlock because it says âmycroft held me until I calmed downâ and from this angle it really looks like he is holding him and it's a soft and comforting and quiet moment right. until you move around a bit and realize just how unhinged the scene is and mycroft is actually hauling sherlock away nearly kicking and screaming and now I can't stop laughing
and it looks like he's really struggling with it too and his head is turned like he's calling for help restraining a battering ram. frogwares what is this I'm crying
Okay, but we don't talk enough about how funny it actually is that Sherry literally plays a jaunty âintroducing the haughtyâ music in his head for himself as he makes a dramatic entrance. and how as soon as he steps foot inside the hotel, the band starts playing his theme.
Replaying Chapter One is not enough anymore. I want to crawl into the game and just live there perpetually.
This screenshot always reminds me of ....

"A boy's best friend is his mother."
This outfit is an ode to the special bond between Sherry and his mother (and any child with their mother, really), but the caption always makes me pause and think.
I see it as another hint at the parallels between Violet and Jon and the idea of Jon being âmodeledââfor lack of a better wordâafter Sherlock's own mother. (Mycroft, too. There are many hints and parallels as well, but I think it's primarily Violet. I think ultimately, Jon embodies a bit of every family member, amplified and customized by Sherlock's ideal versions of them). Playing the piano and being musically oriented in general, calling him âSherryâ, the playfulness and whimsy (implied with Violet during the garden walk and also her fascination with the weird and wonderful), and the sketching hobby (she and Jon even have a similar art style). This last one is particularly interesting because it implies that Sherlock saw his mother's deteriorating sketches as a child and associated that with her being sad, in a bad mood or upset with him, so later whenever Jon is sad or cross with him, the same thing happens to his sketches.
These are all memories and traits that little Sherry no doubt loved and found comforting about his mother or things he'd noticed and internalized, like the distorted sketches. So, naturally, the manifestation of his self-love and his coping mechanism embodies all of them.
Violet was little Sherry's best friend. Before Jon, before Watson, before she grew distant and abusive, and before he lost her. And Jon is his solace in this loss. It's like he still has a piece of his mother and everything he cherishes about her with him. She's physically gone, but in a way, she's always there by his side.
Looking at it from this angle makes the ending a little more bittersweet (and I mean either of the âgood endingsâ, specifically the one narrated by Mycroft, since that's my personal canon). After getting the closure he needed and recalling what happened, Jon leaves and takes with him the pieces of Violet that Sherlock clung to for years. It's like he's allowing Sherlock to finally let his mother go after years of relying on Jon to vicariously provide her love and comfort.
âFamily, Watson. I let go of the best part in Cordona." (I refuse to include the other half of the quote because it hurts my soul).
He specifically says âI let goâ and not âI lostâ, and I believe he means both his mother and Jon by the âbest partâ. Letting Jon go was also the moment he let his mother go, the moment he released that emotional attachment and finally came to terms with her passing.
"I think I was too young to understand. I couldn't fathom why she would leave me."
I've said it before, but that moment really feels like Sherlock "unstuck" after being frozen in time. For the past ten years, he has matured intellectually, but his emotional side remained jumbled and stuck at the age of traumaâthe child who was still incredibly attached to his motherâuntil he said goodbye to Jon. I'm reminded of that throwaway note in Sherlock's journal: âI'm caught in the suspension of time. The days just melt together, feelings get muddled, and my head feels both heavy and airy at the same time."
I wonder if, in the near or distant future, this "double letting go" might eventually help Sherlock come to terms with what Violet did to him. Without the crutch of that emotional attachment via Jon, maybe, just maybe, he might be able to look at what happened from a different perspective and acknowledge the truth: the mother he loved so dearly had hurt him so severely (and through no fault of his own).
please he's such a dad i can't with him
