"The prince's heart did beat freely, once again."

No but why is this one line so much MORE than the email in the book? Because in the book that armour was protecting him after his father's death and yeah, grief does that to you. The need to protect yourself and those around you.

But in this? This is a prison he has been put into by the king. This was done to him until the "devastatingly handsome peasant boy" came along and pulled away at that prison, piece by piece.

And the prince is scared of what it would mean to be without his armour, without his protection, because even though it was a prison and even though he's not free with it, he is safe. Nothing will ever happen to him while he wears it.

The peasant boy is pulling at it, trying to free him, wanting to free him, and even though he can't because the prince can't let go, he does make some space. There's space for Henry to be free, to love Alex, to want everything with him. To be brave for them both.

He just has to learn to let go of that final piece of armour, the one that hides his "shames" and his secrets.

When he's with Alex, his heart beats freely again - the way it did before he had talk of duty and responsibilty and made to feel like his feelings were "selfish desires". With Alex, Henry is free.

AND I AM EXPECTED TO BE NORMAL ABOUT THIS HOW?

Have we ever talked about that kid and its strange/creepy smile just before the bonfire is lit?

I'm not saying it's a stand-in for Mary but there are theories that Mary is actually an American and the kid's hat is red, white, and blue with stars ...

There seems to be some heat from last night... probably something about a possible bonfire scene that was shot last night... we know Jace (Swen) was ready... haha I wonder if Jace will have more screen time since Nate and Logan won’t be in the first movie? 8:10:18

So I was re-watching TEH and something really bothered me. Mary is a skilled assassin and she quickly figured out the skip code part, but why on Earth would she spend so much time by going to Sherlock and then asking for his help. I doubt that an person with so skilled as herself, she would have any problem finding John on her own. She could have saved so much time..

Hey Nonny!

This is just my speculation and theory, so you can take it how you want :)

I believe it’s because it was a set-up to reveal Sherlock’s feelings for John, as we see both at the end of the episode and in HLV, to whoever is actually pulling the strings (who I believe is Mary but again, I also think S4 is fake) and Mags plays a part in that. To do that, they’ve decided to literally “burn” Sherlock’s heart. If it is Mary’s doing, it only shows even more how cruel she is by allowing John to be a pawn so that she can verify Sherlock still loves John (and also perhaps as a subtle reminder to John: “you stray from your wife and you’re going to suffer”, since he was already showing signs of wandering… I guess shaving that mournstache set her off in a jealous rage, LOL).

As well, she also saw Sherlock was distracted (when she let him ‘read’ her) and she counted on his depression and distraction and her manipulation of their relationship to let her bring the code to Sherlock without arousing suspicion in him, and she knew it would spring Sherlock into action. His lack of hesitation therefore confirmed her suspicions, and her or whoever’s plan proceeded further.

Why depress Sherlock so much without killing him? Because for people like Mary and Moriarty, watching people physically suffer slowly is more pleasurable and enjoyable to them. Because Mary had her own game: to prove she Won John her trophy, and to rub it in Sherlock’s face. I’m sorry, but highly-manipulative people like her do it all for their own self gratification. She watches Sherlock destroy himself, and it was all fun until her her prize was trying to leave her. Then she needed to eliminate the threat so that, when John grieves over Sherlock’s death, he would be all over her once again. It’s sick and twisted, but if it worked the first time, she’ll do it again to get what she wants.

So yeah, it was essentially because she likes watching Sherlock dance and suffer. The best way to destroy a person is to destroy everything dear and precious to them, beat them down emotionally and lower their feelings of self-worth, and then let fate take care of the rest.
