plot: you’re my emergency contact and i’ve been in an accident so you drop everything to come to the hospital)

" oh, no, " words are muttered under her breath as steely blue hues spot the familiar figure. " they called you ? " defeat is washed all over bruised features, the unsettling feeling that had been resting in the pit of her stomach getting worse with every passing second. " i'm fine, you really didn't have to come. "

I rewatched the Mandela Catalogue

and now i accidentally got an idea for an AU where you/us/me (Amelia to be exact, because only Original Characters are allowed in this household) are something like a hunter similar to the Winchesters...but only for Alternates/Demons(?). And we swing in to help the canon characters against the alternates, each individual we save we take into our Alternate Hunting Team.

And bonus: The real Gabriel survived back then. Barely. With about 10% of his former strength he was the first to "join" (it was him recruiting her) our/Amelia's Team, forming the currently only real force capable of fighting against these demonic distorted bitches.

It would 100% be either a Mark x Amelia or a Davis (Thatcher) x Amelia because i am incapable of writing without shipping shit while doing so :)

But keep dreaming for now, folks, my ass is currently busy fighting the big bad COVID plus i will NOT start new shit without at least managing to bring my MHA Story to a certain point!

Hello!! Would it be okay to request for an Addison Montgomery x Grey!Reader?

They're trying to keep their relationship private for the mean time but while walking along the corridors, Mark and Derek tease Addison and welcome her into the Grey's club or something like that HAHA.

Meredith gets wind of the conversation and is like "you're dating my sister?" and then both Maggie and Lexie come and say the same thing. Mer is just chill with it, Lexie is happy, while Maggie lowk threatens Addison LOL. Then reader asks whats going on and you can decided how it ends! TIA :)

A Chessboard of Complex Doctors (Addison Montgomery x Grey!Reader)

tags: AU-Everyone lives lmao, cursing, sexual references, kissing, Lexie just doesn't talk abt you lol, Mark and Derek tease Addie.

summary: You and Addison sleep together and begin a private relationship, Meredith finds out.

You were another sister in Meredith’s brood of sisters. Apparently, both Thatcher and Ellis had been busy with babies, you were the youngest sister between Thatcher and Susan, having followed in Lexie’s path through medical school and into a surgical internship, of which you were a few years behind her. Meredith’s shock and awe at your existence was doubled by Maggie’s and Amelia’s.

“Lex, did you just never mention me?” You confront your sister in a lighthearted manner and she shrugged, half heartedly, making you roll your eyes. “You’re just so much younger than me!” You sigh and there is a barrage of laughter from the group of you all.

Nearby, the attending doctors stand and discuss their upcoming surgeries, when the laughter pulls them all away from what is basically their bragging contest, “So, there’s another Grey sister?” She pretends to not know, it takes all in her body to do so, the night before you’d both met at Joe’s bar and had gone home together in a meeting that had her thinking about you long after you left, now you were here. Derek nods at her and Mark looks at the two of them, a bit confused. “Wait, Lexie didn’t tell Meredith about (Y/N)?” There was silence among the three doctors when Derek turned to him, “You knew?” Mark nods, chuckling a bit, “I did more than know, Derek, I met her! She’d just graduated and I suggested Seattle Grace Mercy West…” As the two men bicker with one another about this development, Addison stays silent, staring at you nervously. She hopes the guys don’t notice and decides to run before they do. She begins to walks past the group of you all, laughing and joking, when you stop.

Addison. You remember the night before vividly, excusing yourself from the conversation, following after her, pulling her into an on-call room. "You're a Doctor?!" You ask, mildly shocked before exclaiming, "Wait, and you work here?!" She sighs at your exclamations locking the door, "You didn't tell me you were Lexie Grey's sister and that Mark Sloan got you here!" You stare at her, mouth agape as you shake your head. "This is a mess..." You murmur to no one in particular as she shakes her head dismissively, "Why is it though? Derek and Meredith, Mark and Lexie, if you wanted we could..." There is silence between the two of you before you turn to her, meeting her lips with your own. All the confirmation the both of you need for this lust-filled moment to begin the bloom of love. Your hands holding onto her body become something tender as the two of you repeat the night prior. When you both are done, she leaves first, trying to compose herself once more, pushing her hair behind her ears and nervously messing with her hands. She walks past Derek and Mark and right away, they knew something is up. Addison never acts like that unless there is something to hide.

"So, Addison..." Mark starts, "You meet the littlest Grey yet?" She nods, not meeting his eyes or Derek's, "If Lexie's the preschooler what do you think (Y/N) is?" Derek chuckles as he joins in, "I'd have to say fetus probably, but maybe we should consult Addison on this. Since she's joined the Grey's-club now." This made Addison hotter than hell, she glared at the two of them and in a hushed voice said, "Look, I need you to not tell Meredith about the fact that I accidentally had sex and am now dating her half-sister!"

Mark and Derek send one another a look of enjoyment, "Alright, just know that those Grey girls are something else." Derek teases her, noticing Meredith as the two men pipe down with the teasing.

Meredith doesn’t seem… mad, Addison can’t really tell what emotion there is on her face but it’s probably not positive. You are finally out of the on-call room after waiting possibly a bit too long.

“So, you’re dating my sister?” She says, emotions still a bit confusing, as if she’s trying to scare Addison a bit, that bit of conversation draws attention from Maggie, Lexie, and Amelia who all seem incredibly invested in the conversation now. “Meredith-” You try to speak over her before she gets mad, “No, wait, I’m not mad.”

There’s an air of surprise, but Maggie speaks up before Meredith can say anything, “(Y/N)‘s an adult, guys, I can’t do anything about the new sister,” She begins, “All I ask, Addison, if you hurt her. I will not be happy. I have a new sister in my life and I want her to be happy, so if you hurt her, I will hurt you.” There’s a quiet air before Derek busts out laughing, Maggie had rarely ever seemed so angry and hearing the normally kind woman speak so seriously towards Addison like that was funny in a way. You roll your eyes at your new sister, “Addie won’t hurt me, Maggie. Besides, like you said. I am an adult.” You take Addison’s hand lovingly as Lexie smiles at the two of you, “I’m just glad that my little sister is happy, besides, aren’t you glad Mark suggested Seattle Grace Mercy West to her as an internship?”

Then, all hell broke loose, as a barrage of doctor’s went towards Mark asking why he hadn’t told them of your existence while you and Addison walked off. Hand and hand.

B, P, X?

B - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind. 

The one that comes to mind for me is Logan/Mac friendship from Veronica Mars. Those who know me know that my love for Wallace is first and foremost, so my inclination is to always want to develop a Logan/Wallace friendship. 

But I think it was both @susanmichelin and @cheshirecatstrut, and their descriptions of Mac as a female version of Logan, that made me consider the sarcastic/dry witted delight of a potential friendship with them. So, basically it’s their fault that in one of my fics I have them as roommates who started a company together. If you thought that was unbelievable/silly IT’S ALL THEIR FAULT!

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas). 

I looked through your fics and some of our shared fandoms to come up with AUs. Are these terrible? YOU BE THE JUDGE. 

Veronica Mars (Logan/Veronica): Modern royalty AU - Some sort of small country where Logan is the next in line to the throne and he is 32 years old and seemingly has zero interest in marrying, but he knows he’s GOTSTA so he finally listens to his mother (his father has bit the bucket, RIP Aaron you trash bag) and agrees to court someone. Parker Lee is everything a lady should be - philanthropic, good-hearted, lively, beautiful, and with a large fortune she sets to inherit from her parent’s shipping company. And she and Logan get along well. No, it’s not passion and fire and romance, but Parker seems okay without that (the love of her life died at a young age, so she’s okay with a lifelong companion who treats her well). So they’ll be best-friends. Best-friends who have to have sex to produce an heir eventually. But! Best-friends. And this seems fine and doable, until the engagement is announced and Parker gets her own security detail. More specifically, everything is going well until Logan meets the head of Parker’s security detail, Veronica Mars. (AND THEN WHAT HAPPENS?!?! Who’s to say?)

Derry Girls (James/Erin): James and Erin are best-buddies who work at the same terrible, soul sucking, cubicle laden company in London. The only thing that gets them through their days is their daily lunches which always seem to go a little long. That is until Erin gets word that Kellen Sky, her favorite actor, will be in town for six weeks for his next film. Erin is determined to meet him, determined to have the man realize they’re soulmates, and she needs James’ help. They scheme, they plot, and it all goes to hell. Until one day, when the two of them are at their regular haunt for lunch, Erin accidentally dumps her cappuccino over some poor unsuspecting stranger. Except, he’s not a stranger. To Erin’s horror it’s Kellen Sky, and to James’ horror he has to watch as Kellen and his best-friend seemingly hit it off. A best-friend whom he is quickly realizing he might be in love with. 

Grey’s Anatomy (Mark/Lexie): Idk. Some sort of regency inspired AU? Lexie is the youngest daughter of her father, the soul sick and curmudgeonly Thatcher Grey. Her social circle is small, comprised solely of her father, her older sister Meredith who lives more than two days away, and her dearest friend, Mr. Sloan. Mr. Sloan spends most of his evenings with Lexie and her father, offering friendship and counsel. But, as a famously wealthy bachelor with no intention of marrying, Lexie must keep her long-held feelings for him secret. That is until Meredith makes a proposal: she and her husband and children will come for the summer to care for their father so that Lexie is free to travel with Meredith’s sister-in-law, Amelia, throughout the Lake District. It is a perfect plan, allowing Lexie the opportunity to travel for the first time in her life, as well as provide her with distance from Mr. Sloan. That is until her party arrives in Cornwall and on their visit to the assembly rooms, she discovers Mr. Sloan is also in Cornwall, supposedly on business. Lexie is left to wander if this is coincidence, fate, or perhaps an indication that her feelings for Mr. Sloan are perhaps not as unrequited as she believed. 

X - A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.

Has to be secret relationship. Absolutely. But! I am a weepy little human who can’t handle much angst so when it’s secret relationship that leads to ANGST ANGST ANGST then that makes me sad. I prefer secret relationship that leads to HIJINKS HIJINKS HIJINKS.

Chapter 4 – It is always 1895 [TAB 1/1]

TAB is my favourite episode of Sherlock. It is a masterpiece that investigates queerness, the canon and the psyche all within an hour and a half. Huge amounts of work has been done on this episode, however, so I’m not going to do a line by line breakdown – that could fill a small book. A great starting point for understanding the myriad of references in TAB is Rebekah’s three part video series on the episode, of which the first instalment can be found here X. I broadly agree with this analysis; what I’m going to do here, though, is place that analysis within the framework of EMP theory. As a result, as much as it pains me, this chapter won’t give a breakdown of carnation wallpaper or glass houses or any of those quietly woven references – we’re simply going in to how it plays into EMP theory.

Before digging into the episode, I want to take a brief diversion to talk about one of my favourite films, Mulholland Drive (2001).

If you haven’t seen Mulholland Drive, I really recommend it – it’s often cited as the best film of the last 20 years, and watching it really helps to see where TAB came from and the genre it’s operating in. David Lynch is one of the only directors to do the dream-exploration-of-the-psyche well, and I maintain that a lot of the fuckiness in the fourth series draws on Lynch. However, what I actually want to point out about Mulholland Drive is the structure of it, because I think it will help us understand TAB a little better. [If you don’t want spoilers for Mulholland Drive, skip the next paragraph.]

The similarities between these two are pretty straightforward; the most common reading of Mulholland Drive is that an actress commits suicide by overdose after causing the death of her ex-girlfriend, who has left her for a man, and that the first two-thirds of the film are her dream of an alternate scenario in which her girlfriend is saved. The last third of the film zooms in and out of ‘real life’, but at the end we see a surreal version of the actual overdose which suggests that this ‘real life’, too, has just been in her psyche. Sherlock dying and recognising that this may kill John is an integral part of TAB, and the relationships have clear parallels, but what is most interesting here is the structural similarity; two-thirds of the way through TAB, give or take, we have the jolt into reality, zoom in and out of it for a while and then have a fucky scene to finish with that suggests that everything is, in fact, still in our dying protagonist’s brain. Mulholland Drive’s ending is a lot sadder than TAB’s – the fact that, unlike Sherlock, there is no sequel can lead us to assume that Diane dies – and it’s also a lot more confusing; it’s often cited as one of the most complicated films ever made even just in terms of surface level plot, before getting into anything else, and it certainly took me a huge amount of time on Google before I could approach anything like a resolution on it!

Mulholland Drive is the defining film in terms of the navigating-the-surreal-psyche subgenre, and so the structural parallels between the two are significant – and definitely point to the idea that Sherlock hasn’t woken up at the end of TAB, which is important. But we don’t need to take this parallel as evidence; there’s plenty of that in the episode itself. Let’s jump in.

Emelia as Eurus

When we first meet Eurus in TST, she calls herself E; this initialism is a link to Moriarty, but it’s also a convenient link to other ‘E’ names. Lots of people have already commented on the aural echo of ‘Eros’ in ‘Eurus’, which is undeniable; the idea that there is something sexual hidden inside her name chimes beautifully with her representation of a sexual repression. The other important character to begin with E, however, is Emelia Ricoletti. The name ‘Emelia’ doesn’t come from ACD canon, and it’s an unorthodox spelling (Amelia would be far more common), suggesting that starting with an ‘E’ is a considered choice.

When TAB aired, we were preoccupied with Emelia as a Sherlock mirror, and it’s easy to see why; the visual parallels (curly black hair, pale skin) plus the parallel faked death down to the replacement body, which Mofftiss explicitly acknowledge in the episode. However, I don’t think that this reading is complete; rather, she foreshadows the Eurus that we meet in s4. The theme of ghosts links TAB with s4 very cleanly; TAB is about Emelia, but there is also a suggestion of the ghosts of one’s past with Sir Eustace as well as Sherlock’s own claims (‘the shadows that define our every sunny day’). Compare this to s4 – ‘ghosts from the past’ appears on pretty much every promotional blurb, and the word is used several times in relation to Eurus. If Eurus is the ghost from Sherlock’s past, the repressive part of his psyche that keeps popping back, Emelia is a lovely metaphor for this; she is quite literally the ghost version of Sherlock who won’t die.

What does it mean, then, when Jim and Emelia become one and the same in the scene where Jim wears the bride’s dress? We initially read this as Jim being the foil to Sherlock, his dark side, but I think it’s more complicated than this. Sherlock’s brain is using Emelia as a means of understanding Jim, but when we watch the episode it seems that they’ve actually merged. Jim wearing the veil of the bride is a good example of this, but I also invite you to rewatch the moment when John is spooked by the bride the night that Eustace dies; the do not forget me song has an undeniable South Dublin accent.* This is quite possibly Yasmine Akram [Janine] rather than Andrew Scott, of course, but let’s not forget that these characters are resolutely similar, and hearing Jim’s accent in a genderless whisper is a pretty clear way of inflecting him into the image of the bride. In addition to this, Eustace then has ‘Miss Me?’ written on his corpse, cementing the link to Moriarty.

[*the South Dublin accent is my accent, so although we hear a half-whispered song for all of five seconds, I’m pretty certain about this]

Jim’s merging with Emelia calls to mind for me what I think might be the most important visual of all of series 4 – Eurus and Jim’s Christmas meeting, where they dance in circles with the glass between them and seem to merge into each other. I do talk about this in a later chapter, but TLDR – if Jim represents John being in danger and Eurus represents decades of repressed gay trauma, this merging is what draws the trauma to the surface just as Jim’s help is what suddenly makes Eurus a problem. It is John’s being in danger which makes Sherlock’s trauma suddenly spike and rise – he has to confront this for the first time – just like Emelia Ricoletti’s case from 1895 only needs solving for the first time now that Jim is back.

At some point I want to do a drag in Sherlock meta, because I think there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye, but Jim in a bride’s dress does draw one obvious drag parallel for me.

If you haven’t seen the music video for I Want to Break Free, it’s 3 minutes long and glorious – and also, I think, reaps dividends when seen in terms of Sherlock. You can watch it here: X

Not only is it a great video, but for British people of Mofftiss’s age, it’s culturally iconic and not something that would be forgotten when choosing that song for Jim. Queen were intending to lampoon Coronation Street, a British soap, and already on the wrong side of America for Freddie Mercury’s unapologetic queerness, found themselves under fire from the American censors. Brian May says that no matter how many times he tried to explain Coronation Street to the Americans, they just didn’t get it. This was huge controversy at the time, but the video and the controversy around it also managed to cement I Want to Break Free as Queen’s most iconic queer number – despite not even being one of Mercury’s songs. There is no way that Steven Moffat, and even more so Mark Gatiss would not have an awareness of this in choosing this song for Moriarty. Applying any visual to this song is going to invite comparisons to the video – and inflecting a sense of drag here is far from inappropriate. Moriarty has been subsumed into Eurus in Sherlock’s brain – the male and the female are fused into an androgynous and implicitly therefore all-encompassing being. I’m not necessarily comfortable with the gendered aspect of this – genderbending is something we really only see in our villains here – but given this is about queer trauma, deliberately queering its form in this way is making what we’re seeing much more explicit.

Nothing new under the sun

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun” (Ecclesiastes)

"Read it up -- you really should. There is nothing new under the sun. It has all been done before." (A Study in Scarlet, Sherlock Holmes)

“Hasn’t this all happened before? There’s nothing new under the sun.” (The Abominable Bride, Jim Moriarty)

This is arguably the key to spotting that TAB is a dream long before they tell us – when TAB’s case is early revealed to be a mixture between TRF (Emelia’s suicide) and TGG (the five pips), and we see the opening of ASiP repeated, we should be questioning what on earth is going on. This can also help us to recognise s4 as being EMP as well though – old motifs from the previous series keep repeating through the cases, like alarm bells ringing. Moriarty telling Sherlock that there is nothing new under the sun is his key to understanding that the Emelia case is meant to help him understand what happened to Jim, that it’s a mental allegory or mirror to help him parse it. This doesn’t go away when TAB ends! Moving into TST, one of the striking things is that cases are still repeating! The Six Thatchers appeared on John’s blog way back, before the fall – you can read it here: X. It’s about a gay love affair that ends in one participant killing the other. Take from that what you will, when John’s extramarital affection is making him suicidal and Sherlock comatose. Meanwhile, the title of The Final Problem refers to the story that was already covered in TRF and the phone situation with the girl on the plane references both ASiB and TGG, and the ending of TST is close to a rerun of HLV. It’s pretty much impossible to escape echoes of previous series in a way that is almost creepy, but we’ve already had this explained to us in TAB – none of this is real. It’s supposed to be explaining what is happening in the real world – and Mofftiss realised that this was going to be difficult to stomach, and so they included TAB as a kind of key to the rest of the EMP, which becomes much more complex.

However, if we want to go deeper we should look at where that quote comes from. I’ve given a few epigraphs to this section to show where the quote comes from – first the book of Ecclesiastes, then A Study in Scarlet. It’s one of the first things Holmes says and it is during his first deduction in Lauriston Gardens. This is where I’m going to dive pretty deep into the metatextual side of things, so bear with the weirdness.

[we’re going deeper]

Holmes’s first deduction from A Study in Scarlet shows that he’s no great innovator – he simply notices things and spots patterns from things he has seen before. This is highlighted by the fact that he even makes this claim by quoting someone before him. If our Sherlock also makes deductions based on patterns from the past, extensive dream sequences where he works through past cases as mirrors for present ones makes perfect sense and draws very cleverly on canon. However, I think his spotting of patterns goes deeper than that. Sherlock Holmes has been repressed since the publication of A Study in Scarlet, through countless adaptations in literature and film. Plenty of these adaptations as well as the original stories are referenced in the EMP, not least by going back to 1895, the year that symbolises the era in which most of these adaptations are set. (If you don’t already know it, check out the poem 221B by Vincent Starrett, one of the myriad of reasons why the year 1895 is so significant.) My feeling is that these adaptations, which have layered on top of each other in the public consciousness to cement the image of Sherlock Holmes the deductive machine [which he’s not, sorry Conan Doyle estate] come to symbolise the 100+ years of repression that Sherlock himself has to fight through to come out of the EMP as his queer self.

This is one of the reasons that the year 1895 is so important; it was the year of Oscar Wilde’s trial and imprisonment for gross indecency, and this is clearly a preoccupation of Sherlock’s consciousness in TFP with its constant Wilde references, suggesting that his MP’s choice of 1895 wasn’t coincidental. Much was made during TAB setlock of a newspaper that said ‘Heimish The Ideal Husband’, Hamish being John’s middle name and An Ideal Husband being one of Wilde’s plays. But the Vincent Starrett poem, although nostalgic and ostensibly lovely, for tjlcers and it seems for Sherlock himself symbolises something much more troubling. Do search up the full poem, but for now let’s look at the final couplet.

Here, though the world explode, these two survive

And it is always 1895

‘Though the world explode’ is a reference to WW1, which is coming in the final Sherlock Holmes story, and which is symbolised by Eurus – in other chapters, I explain why Eurus and WW1 are united under the concept of ‘winds of change’ in this show. Sherlock and John survive the winds of change – except they don’t move with them. Instead, they stay stuck in 1895, the year of ultimate repression. 2014!Sherlock going back in his head to 1895 and repeating how he met John suggests exactly that, that nothing has changed but the superficial, and that emotionally, he is still stuck in 1895.

Others have pulled out similar references to Holmes adaptations he has to push through in TAB – look at the way he talks in sign language to Wilder, which can only be a reference to Billy Wilder, director of TPLoSH, the only queer Holmes film, and a film which was forced to speak through coding because of the Conan Doyle estate. That film is also referenced by Eurus giving Sherlock a Stradivarius, which is a gift given to him in TPLoSH in exchange for feigning heterosexuality. Eurus is coded as Sherlock’s repression, and citing a repressive moment in a queer film as her first action when she meets Sherlock is another engagement by Sherlock’s psyche with his own cinematic history. My favourite metatextual moment of this nature, however, is the final scene of TFP which sees John and Sherlock running out of a building called Rathbone Place.

Basil Rathbone is one of the most iconic Sherlock Holmes actors on film, and Benedict’s costume in TAB and in particular the big overcoat look are very reminiscent of Rathbone.

Others have discussed (X) how the Victorian costume and the continued use of the deerstalker in the present day are images of Sherlock’s public façade and exclusion of queerness from his identity. It’s true that pretty much every Holmes adaptation has used the deerstalker, but the strong Rathbone vibes that come from Ben’s TAB costume ties the 1895 vibe very strongly into Rathbone. To have the final scene – and hopefully exit from the EMP – tie in with Sherlock and John running out of Rathbone Place tells us that, just as Sherlock cast off the deerstalker at the end of TAB (!), he has also cast off the iconic filmic Holmes persona which has never been true to his actual identity.

Waterfall scene

The symbol of water runs through TAB as well as s4 – others have written fantastic meta on why water represents Sherlock’s subconscious (X), but I want to give a brief outline. It first appears with the word ‘deeper’ which keeps reappearing, which then reaches a climax in the waterfall scene. The idea that Sherlock could drown in the waters of his mind is something that Moriarty explicitly references, suggesting that Sherlock could be ‘buried in his own Mind Palace’. The ‘deep waters’ line keeps repeating through series 4, and I just want to give the notorious promo photo from s4 which confirms the significance of the motif.

This is purely symbolic – it never happens in the show. Water increases in significance throughout – think of Sherlock thinking he’s going mad in his mind as he is suspended over the Thames, or the utterly nonsensical placement of Sherrinford in the middle of the ocean – the deepest waters of Sherlock’s mind. Much like the repetition of cases hinting that EMP continues, the use of water is something that appears in the MP, and it sticks around from TAB onwards, a real sign that we’re going deeper and deeper. I talk about this more in the bit on TFP, but the good news is that Sherrinford is the most remote place they could find in the ocean – that’s the deepest we’re going. After that, we’re coming out (of the mind).

Shortly after TAB aired, I wrote a meta about the waterfall scene, some of which I now disagree with, but the core framework still stands – it did not, of course, bank on EMP theory. You can find it here (X), but I want to reiterate the basic framework, because it still makes a lot of sense. Jim represents the fear of John’s suicide, and Jim can only be defeated by Sherlock and John together, not one alone – and crucially, calling each other by first names, which would have been very intimate in the Victorian era. After Jim is “killed”, we have Sherlock’s fall. The concept of a fall (as in IOU a fall) has long been linked with falling in love in tjlc. Sherlock tells John that it’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the landing, something that Jim has been suggesting to him for a while. What is the landing, then? Well, Sherlock Holmes fell in love back in the Victorian era, symbolised by the ultra repressive 1895, and that’s where he jumps from – but he lands in the 21st century. Falling in love won’t kill him in the modern day. What I missed that time around, of course, was that despite breaking through the initial Victorian layers of repression, he still dives into more water, and when the plane lands, it still lands in his MP, just in a mental state where the punishment his psyche deals him for homosexuality is less severe. This also sets up s4 as specifically dealing with the problem of the fall – Sherlock jumps to the 21st century specifically to deal with the consequences of his romantic and sexual feelings. There’s a parallel here with Mofftiss time jumping; back when they made A Study in Twink in 2009, there was a reason they made the time jump. Having Sherlock’s psyche have that touch of self-awareness helps to illustrate why they made a similar jump, also dealing with the weight of previous adaptations.

Women

I preface this by saying how incredibly uncomfortable I find the positioning of women as the KKK in TAB. It’s a parallel which is unforgivable; frankly, invoking the KKK without interrogating the whiteness of the show or even mentioning race is unacceptable. Steven Moffat’s ability to write women has consistently been proven to be nil, but this is a new low. However, the presence of women in TAB is vital, so on we go.

TAB specifically deals with the question of those excluded from a Victorian narrative. This is specifically tied into to those who are excluded from the stories, such as Jane and Mrs. Hudson. Mrs. Hudson’s complaint is in the same scene as John telling her and Sherlock to blame the problems on the illustrator. This ties back to the deerstalker metaphor which is so prevalent in this episode; something that’s not in the stories at all, but a façade by which Holmes is universally recognised and which as previously referenced masks his queerness. Women, then, are not the only people being excluded from the narrative. When Mycroft tells us that the women have to win, he’s also talking about queer people. This is a war that we must lose.

I don’t think the importance of Molly in particular here has been mentioned before, but forgive me if I’m retreading old ground. However, Molly always has importance in Sherlock as a John mirror, and just because she is dressed as a man here doesn’t mean we should disregard this. If anything, her ridiculous moustache is as silly as John’s here! Molly, although really a member of the resistance, is able to pass in the world she moves in in 1895, but only by masking her own identity. This is exactly what happens to John in the Victorian era – as a bisexual man married to a woman, he is able to pass, but it is not his true identity. More than that, Molly is a member of the resistance, suggesting not just that John is queer but that he’s aware of it and actively looking for it to change.

I know I was joking about Molly and John’s moustaches, but putting such a silly moustache on Molly links to the silliness of John’s moustaches, which only appear when he’s engaged to a woman and in the Victorian era. He has also grown the moustache just so the illustrator will recognise him, and Molly has grown her moustache so that she will be recognised as a man. In this case, Molly is here to demonstrate the fact that John is passing, but only ever passing. Furthermore, Molly, who is normally the kindest person in the whole show, is bitter and angry throughout TAB – it’s not difficult to see then how hiding one’s identity can affect one’s mental health. I really do think that John is a lot more abrasive in TAB than he is in the rest of the show, but that’s not the whole story. Showing how repression can completely impair one’s personality also points to the suicidal impulses that are lurking just out of sight throughout TAB – this is what Sherlock is terrified of, and again his brain is warning him just what it is that is causing John this much pain and uncharacteristic distress.

This is just about the loosest sketch of TAB that could exist! But TAB meta has been so extensive that going over it seems futile, or else too grand a project within a short chapter. Certain theories are still formulating, and may appear at a later date! But what this chapter (I hope) has achieved has set up the patterns that we’re going to see play out in s4 – between the metatextuality, the waters of the mind and the role of Moriarty in the psyche, we can use TAB as a key with which to read s4. I like to think of it as a gift from Mofftiss, knowing just how cryptic s4 would be – and these are the basic clues with which to solve it.

That’s it for TAB, at least in this series – next up we’re going ever deeper, to find out exactly who is Eurus. See you then?

Businessman!Husband!Sam x Reader

Warnings: Smut adjacent

-

Sam hears Dan and Lance laughing outside his office door before they knock. He looks up from his computer, happy to take a break. It’s a little after three, nearing the end of the work day and the week. He’s more than ready for a weekend away from this place.

Sam’s one of three in-house lawyers for Oculus, a giant tech company, where he specializes in intellectual property rights. The majority of his days are spent in monotonous meetings or locked in his office tethered to a computer. So when Dan and Lance come up from Development on the third floor he’s always thrilled for the change of pace.

Some days they talk sports, other times they take turns playing Battlefield on Sam’s Xbox, but today they’re snickering as soon as they open the door and spill into the room. Dan sits in the chair on the other side of Sam’s desk and Lance drops onto the small couch in the corner of the room.

“Winchester!” Dan greets him, slapping his hands on the desk. “We just heard some very interesting information.”

“There’s some scuttlebutt around the office,” Lance explained and Dan looks at him like he’s a moron.

“Scuttlebutt? Who are you, Margaret Thatcher?” Dan shakes his head and Sam chuckles.

“Are you gonna tell me or what?” Sam inquires.

“Well, it just so happens that the latest gossip is about you, my man.” Dan grins, picking up Sam’s egg-shaped paperweight, tossing it from hand to hand.

“Me?” Sam balks leaning forward, “I hardly come out of my office.”

“Ironic you would say that.” Dan chides, thoroughly enjoying his moment of power.

“Come on Dan, it’s bullshit.” Lance dismisses, lying down on the sofa.

Now Sam’s interest is really peaked, he closes his laptop and rocks back in his chair. “Tell me.”

“Well,” Dan divulges, “Tilda down in accounting has lunch twice a week over in the bar at the Belmont.” Everyone in the office knows that Tilda drinks her lunch, “She said that she’s seen you there twice in the last month. She said you were there around lunch time, only you didn’t stay in the lobby. You went upstairs, disappeared for a while and then came back down and went right back to work.”

Sam can feel the heat rising in his cheeks.

“Now, and I’m not saying I believe it, but the rumor on the floor is that your secretary, little miss hot tits out there, was gone at the same time. So one thing leads to another and people assume….”

“What? I’m banging my assistant?” Sam finishes, scoffing at the thought. “Come on guys, you know me better than that. I’m married.”

“I’m not one to judge,” Dan throws up his hands, “just tell me this, are you sneaking away for a quick tug at the Belmont Hotel?”

“Look, every once in a while...” Sam tries to explain and it’s all the confirmation Dan and Lance need to erupt in hoots and hollers. He throws a pad of Post-Its at Dan, “will you calm the fuck down.”

“Oh man, I knew there was something going on with you and her.”

“I’m not fucking Amelia,” Sam chuckles half embarrassed, half pleased with himself. “Look, I’ve been pulling long hours, I don’t get to see Y/N as much as I’d like, so every once in a while we...meet up.”

“Really?” Dan looks disappointed, but only for a moment as his frown turns up into a sly smirk. “Your wife needs the D that bad huh?”

“Shut up.” Sam tries to remain serious but ends up with a lopsided grin on his face.

“I told you,” Lance confirms from the couch. “He’d never cheat.”

“Hey, you get nothing but respect from me.” Dan laughs picking up the picture of you and Sam from his desk. “She is a ten and she’s got a little wild streak huh?”

“Alright,” Sam reaches over and takes the photo from Dan, laying it face down.

“I just gotta ask you one more thing and I’ll stop, I promise.”

“What?” Sam rolls his eyes.

“Who’s idea was it? It was hers wasn’t it?” Dan watches as Sam chuckles, flattening down his suit pants with his palms. “I fucking knew it.”

my favorite male character: alex. alex. i am also still so upset over him leaving but ALEX. i have loved him for sooo long now and his growth is unparalleled. him going from his upbringing to the DAMN CHIEF. to running his own hospital. jackson also deserves a mention because even when he has his head up his ass i love that boy. i also love and miss henry thank u. 

my favorite book/season/etc: season 13 made me cry for every single episode for a long time there. i would literally be sitting in my dorm room sobbing because of how powerful some of those episodes were. 

my favorite episode (if its a tv show): there have been 350 episodes now or something so give me a moment. 6x24 has always been one of my favorites. it is so poignant. i really liked 12x05 tbh. 14x09 was also SUCH a good ep. 15x19 is SO GOOD and SO HARD. 15x21 is also such a good ep. can you tell i prefer later seasons. 

my favorite ship: alex and jo!!!! they are sooo good for each other. i would die for their relationship and also just how strong they are.... all the time. i love ben & miranda bailey too. they’ve been so strong since season 6 and that’s a lot. 

a character I’d die defending: alex. MAGGIE. jackson. AMELIA. meredith & callie. 

a character I just can’t sympathize with: derek. OWEN. thatcher. ellis 

a character I grew to love: arizona lmao. i couldn’t stand her for so long the first time i watched and she dropped when she cheated on callie even tho i’m more tolerant and understanding of her now than i was. rewatching and i love her off the bat BUT it took me a long time to really love her and then her last few seasons i LOVED her so yeah def arizona.

The Midheaven: How You Will Be Remembered

The Midheaven (MC) is commonly thought to describe one’s career path. Although this is a decent indicator of one’s overall path, it can be hard to relate to a specific career so early in one’s life.

ℵ ew Orleans, present time. To the untrained eye the city, very slowly recovering from past catastrophe, might be a peaceful one. But oh, nothing could be farther from the truth. A bloody feud is being fought between two witch covens, a war that has started before the days of Salem and has been raging on ever since. An old grudge is carried into the present day that stirs a hatred between them no one seems to be able to stop.  But it all changes when one day a foe appears with the declared goal to extinct both witch circles. Can this mutual threat unify the former enemies? Or will their pride and hate destroy all of them?
