“ John looks down at the broken teacup at his feet.

Most people think they know what’s going to happen. Perhaps you’ll dismiss this narrative early, thinking it is boring and banal and not worth the distance to that innermost cave. Or perhaps you’ll be too easily impressed and think this is a great story.

Perhaps you’re just looking for a cheap thrill. Well, this one has thrills, but they don’t come cheaply. The Powers-That-Be never gave me any trigger warnings, so I’ll give none to you, save this: Here there be dragons. ”

Go and read one of the best Johnlock fanfiction ever made. Truly. Let me insit : Don’t hesitate for a moment, click the link, read the fic.

John, I’m here. I’m back. Look at me, John.

Imagine the scene: It’s pouring rain against a thick window.         Outside, on Baker Street, the light from the gas lamps is so weak that it barely reaches the pavement.           A fog swirls in the air, and the gas gives it a pale yellow glow.          Mystery brews in every darkened corner, in every darkened room.         And a man steps out into that dim, foggy world, and he can tell you the story of your life by the cut of your shirtsleeves.         He can shine a light into the dimness, with only his intellect and his tobacco smoke to help him.         Now. Tell me that’s not awfully romantic?

Death and Illusions

TRF : A Sherlock jumps from a roof and die. But it’s fake. He is alive. A Moriarty shoots himself and dies. But... ? TAB : A woman shoots herself in front of witnesses but it’s fake. She dies a little while later.

TSoT : A guard dies in the shower. But it was the result of a wound he received previously without noticing. TST : A boy dies in a car accident. But he actually died a week earlier from a seizure in front of a witness that failed to see him.

Although we live in a post-Freudian, post-humanist, postmodern, post-everything age, there are still plenty of unthinkable thoughts around, and they serve as the hard core of narratives.           An unthinkable thought is not one that *hasn’t* occurred to [a character], nor is it a thought that somebody considers to be wrong.             An unthinkable thought threatens a [character’s] entire existence, and is therefore subversive, and consequently *can* be thought of and *has* been thought of, but has been pushed out of the mind’s currency and subsumed into its margins where it festers.             Dark nights of the soul are lit by unconceivable ideas.             Any story can draw its source of power from an unfathomable thought.

Satan: hey

Me, trying to sleep: what now?

Satan: In the blog entry for the old Six Thatchers case, a guy killed his boyfriend. Sherlock was staring at that case while he composed sad music for John in ASiB. There’s supposed to be a “NO WAY” reveal about a character’s past in The Six Thatchers episode coming up. What if Sherlock once killed a guy he loved, because the guy was criming on people or something?

Me:

Me: the reveal could be about Mary

Satan: what if you’re wrong

Me: the reveal is about the Other One

Satan: what if there is more than one reveal

Me:

Satan: what if Redbeard is just code for Sherlock’s partner in MI5, like his adventure buddy he caught feelings for, but turned out to be a double agent

Me: Redbeard is the Other One

Satan: you don’t know that

Me: REDBEARD IS A DOG, AND ALSO A PSYCHOLOGICAL COPING MECHANISM FOR HIS BROTHER’S DEATH–

Satan: lol

Me: –BROUGHT ON BY THE FEAR GAS AT BASKERVILLE, WHICH MYCROFT IS CONNECTED TO, AND, IN FACT, THE HOLMES FAMILY ALL HAS TIES TO AMERICA–

Satan: yeah they wiped Sherlock’s memory at Comet Ping Pong

Me:

Satan: goodnight

Me: I am a respected blogger–

Satan: Sherlock killed his crush

Me:

Satan: talk soon 😘

Me: yeah

Me:

Me: the reveal is about Mary

though i do wish there was a way to bridge the empathy gap between us and men on the issue of misogyny that didn’t involve placing them under a realistic matriarchy-simulation. like of course, inversion of abuse solves jackshit, but also they wouldn’t survive it
