Lolol

Sherlock is working a crime scene when he catches a glimpse of another man from behind a ways away talking to Lestrade and thinks ‘wow he’s attractive’ and feels momentarily scandalized by himself before he gets a proper look and is like ‘oh yeah, that’s my husband’

Victorian Johnlock idea ...

Sherlock & John make up the story of his marriage to "Mary" to beat the newspaper allegations ... now they take every opportunity to sneak off from cases etc. saying "Mary needs John, etc." when in reality they are slipping out to spend personal time together overnights.

One of the irregulars and her gf are given housing and a position in society to pose as Mary and the housekeeper for this secondary housing unit. While Sherlock has a secret entrance built to accommodate longer and more frequent stays with his own Boswell.

I have a feeling that John just really enjoys pissing Mycroft off

WHY DID THEY DO THIS SHITE IF NO JOHN LOCK. WHY?

Oscillation on the pavement, always means there’s a love affair.

*the voice of David Attenborough continues ... *

Notice how the Doctor takes a careful approach ... ?

Moving slowly, and with caution towards the Detective ... allowing his eyes to convey his intent.

His hands are steady; and his meaning ... unmistakeable.

One might wonder why he uses such desperate caution? Despite having received the apparent signs of receptiveness to his advances, thus far ...?

The Detective, as you can see ... has surrounded himself with a nest of papers, books, and laptops.

Typical of the mating rituals to attract a suitable Doctor.

Notice the shine of the laptops ... ? How they are adorned with apples and windows to catch the eye?

Note the quality of the scattered papers? The gold embossing and the red threads, weaving in and out of this seemingly organized chaos.

It is like a work of art. Built with laborious attention paid to each detail ... to ensure that everything is in it's place.

          ... and it has been worth it.

.

He has captured the attention of a brave species of Doctor.

The Doctor himself, must be bold, and fearless.

Had this Doctor been too timid at first? Or spooked the Detective with too quick a movement in the early stages of their courtship ... ? His chances may have been lost forever.

But he is making good headway.

.

The two creatures are now side-by-side. Exploring the piles gathered. At times, they even appear to be discussing matters of great estate? 

What a delight it would be, if we could know the topic of discussion.

.

The Doctor, it is observed ... will rarely pay attention to a scrap of paper or a laptop, without the Detective pointing it out first. But once engaged, will interact with the item for as long as it has the Detective's attention.

In the end, it is uncertain if the Doctor finds these accoutrements themselves intriguing ...?

        or simply tolerates them for the company of the Detective ... ?

.

All we know is:

From this moment on ... the Doctor will only have eyes for the Detective.

.

Each will never take another partner in his lifetime, once this elaborate ritual has been completed. Death ... Is the only thing that can separate them.

Doctors, and Detectives, are known to mate for life.

There.

We step back now, to take a moment and appreciate this rarely allowed glimpse into a secret world. Their union now complete.

        At times like this ...

            We allow ourselves to wonder ...

What mysteries can their universe hold? And what serendipitous event first brought these two unlikely creatures ... together?

This has been David Attenborough.

Thank you for joining me.

I'm being a dork, but this had me cracking up on my drive home from a too-long day at work. 😚✌️

What Is Johnlock Made Of?

What is Sherlock Holmes made of? What is Sherlock Holmes made of? Deductions and cases And rooftop races That’s what Sherlock Holmes is made of.

What is John Watson made of? What is John Watson made of? Jumpers and tea Trigger finger steady That’s what John Watson is made of.

What is Johnlock made of? What is Johnlock made of? Sugar and spice Both naughty and nice That’s what Johnlock is made of.

I’ll be posting rhymes from my Mother Goose Ships Johnlock series every hour in honor of Sherlock Fandom Appreciation Day. If you’d like to read them all at once, you can find them on AO3.

John, glaring: Sherlock, you’ve ‘borrowed’ my jumper again, haven’t you?

Sherlock, wearing said jumper: It’s soft, John. It understands me.

LOOK AT THESE IDIOTS

First meetings

[almosttomorocco]

STEPH! I am obsessed with the way Sherlock looks at John. I have to pause and rewind and watch 15 times every time he looks in his direction. Guess it's my aesthetic. <333

YOU AND ME BOTH NONNY. I MEAN:

… The whole series is just Sherlock giving John puppy dog eyes :D

(and I know you meant the promo photos, but I rarely see posts show actual episode proof, so here we are :D)

”Eugh … why don’t you two just elope, for God’s sake.”

No, but seriously, do you know how amazing Vincent Price is?

Not just as an actor, although he was a blast to watch in everything he did.  He’s one of those actors who’s just clearly having a whale of a time, no matter how bad the film is.  He’s just genuinely happy to be there (it makes his villains a particular delight, and he played a LOT of them).

But did you know that he was also on the PFLAG board after his daughter came out to him?  And that he was one of the earliest celebrities to speak out against the silence surrounding the AIDS epidemic?

Did you know that when his daughter came out to him, he admitted to her that it had been difficult for him during his first two marriages, because his wives had not been pleased to find out that their husband was just as interested in men as they were?

That’s right, kids, Vincent Price was BISEXUAL AS FUCK, and it was one of those open Hollywood secrets.  And his wife Coral Browne?  The one he grew old with and wrote cookbooks with and was basically ridiculously sweet with?

Also bisexual as fuck.  They were the queer power couple of Hollywood in the 70s.  His daughter, Victoria, grew up around Rock Hudson and members of the LGBT community.  When she came out, Vincent Price became a board member of PFLAG and was just about the most accepting and awesome dad.

Did you know that Vincent Price played Oscar Wilde in a one-man play, and when it was denounced by anti-gay activist Anita Bryant, he dismissed her right back, saying that Oscar Wilde had already come up with a term for her: a Woman of No Importance?  Because Vincent Price was deliciously witty and an awesome person.

Let me conclude with a quote from his daughter (from this article, where I got a lot of this information):

‘“In a funny way, and I think I’m going to cry, he understood me at 22 better than I understood myself then,” Price concluded. “Of course, he was in his 70s and lived a hell of a lot longer than I had, and he understood that at the end of the day it’s about who and what and how we love. And I have not been a person who has been very successful at conventional relationships, but loving well and loving deeply has been the most important thing to me.”’

Happy birthday, Vincent Price.  You were a gem of an actor, and an even greater human being.
