I've been really busy with school lately, but I finally found the time to draw these cutie patooties.

“ships should at least make sense.” no. ships can make sense, sure. but they’re just fictional characters we play with for fun. they’re fantasies, not a fucking thesis paper. so no, they don’t always have to make sense. they just have to make you happy (or horny).

let people enjoy (fictional) things however they want to enjoy.

Wow I just watched A Scandal In Bohemia and y'all weren't lying. David Burke was hilarious, and Gayle Hunnicutt was perfect.... and Jeremy Brett really is absolutely phenomenal-- he IS Holmes in body and soul.

WHERE WAS THIS ALL MY LIFE?!

I'm so excited about this mug I started making loud velociraptor noises

I still can’t believe that in the literal first paragraph of A Scandal in Bohemia they make it very clear that Sherlock Holmes doesn’t feel anything close to love or anything romantic towards Irene Adler, and adaptations STILL manage to fuck it up.

And I can’t believe a big part of the story is that Irene Adler got MARRIED to someone she loves and adaptations STILL manage to fuck that up.

Edward Hardwicke and Jeremy Brett as JOHN WATSON and SHERLOCK HOLMES

[nomidreams]

I saw an essay here a while ago that talks about how the first time Holmes and Watson move in together, it’s out of necessity, and while Watson admires Holmes a great deal, he’s still shocked by Holmes’s methods and impropriety. When he first proposes to Mary, he tells Holmes that he will no longer be going on adventure with him. I view that as an attempt to try to build himself a “normal” life. To try and blend in with society, to have a semblance of the stability he had before he went to war.

The thing is, he keeps coming back to Holmes. At first, in A Scandal in Bohemia, they haven’t seen each other in a month or so. But they instantly click back together. Watson stays at Baker Street once again, and takes part in the harrowing, law bending adventures once again. And again. And again. Visiting Holmes more and more frequently, living in excitement and close companionship with him once again. There’s still the normal side of his life, but it’s in the background.

After Holmes’s “death”, Watson might have realized that he doesn’t WANT “normal”. He wants the life he had with Holmes, but it’s too late.

Then he returns. Watson sells his practice and moves back in with him, and the adventures continue until they grow old.

Yes The Mighty Nein explore the ideas of grey moralty and how you can be both good and bad and that's great but more importantly they explore grey intelligence and how you can simultaneously be incredibly competent and so fucking stupid.
