thejohnlockhell:

what might we deduce about his heart?

How can you know, if you’ve trained yourself not to see it? Or look away uncomfortably when you do? Oh, John.

One of the ways that Sherlock deduces that David still has romantic feelings for Mary is that in all his Facebook pictures of John and Mary, John is, ‘always partly or entirely excluded’.  This shows that he wants John, ‘out of the picture’, so to speak.

Then we see director Colm McCarthy’s approach to framing his shots during the best man speech.  During Sherlock’s speech, Mary is, ‘always partly or entirely excluded’, in any shot that also includes Sherlock.  Janine, a character we’ve only just met, and of much less importance to the proceedings, seems to have plenty of room to fit in shots that exclude Mary.

If excluding half of a couple is a sign that someone wants them to not be a couple, then, here, the show is explicitly telling us that John and Mary are not the right couple.  The compositions escalate from merely cutting Mary out to having Sherlock actually physically block her from the audience’s view.  We are meant to not see John in relation to Mary but Sherlock.  It’s always Sherlock.

(Thank you to obliquely-related for their comment that reminded me to write about this.)

You did see my last post, didn’t you? *looks at your tag about Tietjens* *giggles*

No, I’ve been offline all day, working!! I just got home and am attempting to catch up and process everything that’s going on! What did you say? 

Christopher Carlton Cumberbatch!! I love it! CCC! :)

Hey there :-) It's already kind of late and I spent the past hours reading both the AGRA Complex and Having your cake, so I'll have to make it a little shorter than you actually deserve it to be. Honestly, you are so incredibly talented, everything in the

Oh, this is so nice!!!! I’m delighted that you liked those two! Don’t worry - a lovely comment is lovely at any length! A fun thing to do, when you have time, is to go and watch the Apple Store Q&A while reading that section of the fic - I literally based everything on what actually happens in it!!! 

I’m glad it made you feel better, too! I have no issue with Ben’s wife, but my first preference would still (obviously!) be for him and Martin to be together. But that’s what fanfic is for: to escape and pretend that something different is happening! :) 

Lol, thanks, universe! *laughs for 5,000 years*

I would say that Stephen Harper and Donald Trump should just get married and destroy whatever planet can contain both of them at once, but that would destroy the sanctity of gay marriage and I just don’t support that.
