He must have been getting overheated in that big coat.

so Mary has Sherlock’s pretty soft curls
and John has Jim’s slicked-back swoop
and I woke up still obsessing over what this means mirror-wise, opened tumblr, saw @jenna221b‘s post with this gif and was like OH
OH! I love serendipity! <3
So everything is
cattywompus? Interesting.
Rant-o-meter much?
So maybe I just follow the most rational people on Tumblr, but I noticed on my dash the past few days I saw maybe 20% posts that were short 1-2 lines of unhappy reaction to the Baby/Dog/Happy Family scene and 50% posts were long, 3000 word rants complaining about people who overreact to setlock and explaining why they shouldn’t feel the way they feel.
No irony here. Move along.
[FWIW, please don’t patronize other fans.]

This would be so weird to be doing your daily commute on bike across a bridge and suddenly there’s Sherlock. From TV. lol
I’d be like “Take me back with you to your fictional universe! Please!”

If mary was going to be ‘redeemed’ in any way… then what was the point in showing her threatening a vulnerable sherlock (twice) after she’d already shot and killed him. If they were going to pull this whole ‘oh but she’s sorry really, look how changed she is’ thing, there’s no reason for showing just how dark and how much of a psychopath she really is. They could have shown her to be apologetic, frightened, vulnerable… but she wasn’t. She was dark and cold and horrible to both of them. There’s just no logical way of redeeming her from that, from a narrative pov. It doesn’t make sense. Plus, the reason Sherlock pulled himself back from the brink of death was because John was in danger from ‘that wife’… that won’t just be ignored? like, oh we’re going to do this big emotional dramatic shot of sherlock clawing his way back to life to save John from his psychopath wife because ‘John Watson is definitely in danger!’ to then just… not mention it again? Also, let us never forget the ‘Mary is such a fucking psychopath!’ tweet, which I have framed and hung up on my wall.
All true. Which is why today’s pics feel so off. But I suppose they are building up suspense a bit more before they twist the knife?
