So since Malakai misted Redbeard, I guess the big fella’s staying for a bit. The mist seems fo be the aew equivalent of “I licked it so its mine now”

Right. No one in this show has a fucking dog, but everyone thinks they have!

[fandomnatic]

So I watched Sherlock the Final Problem for the first time

(I literally didn’t even know that I hadn’t watched and and don’t ask me how I didn’t know because I don’t know that either)

So I knew that Eurus existed and that something was wrong with her but I didn’t know much else. So here are my thoughts that you didnt ask for but I’m giving anyways:

Oh my god???

Redbeard? Holy shit?

The emotional trauma she put all three of them through for the past five years not to mention the few hours during her experiment??

SHERLOCK CALLING JOHN FAMILY. “This is a family matter” “YES THAT WHY HES HERE” AND JOHNS SMILE USHDKDHSKDHJEKWK

Mycroft trying to make it easier for Sherlock to kill him because he knew Sherlock would pick John oh my lorddddddddd

He called him Greg. The amount of happiness on Lestrades face right then I-

The parallels from to the first episode stabbed me right in the heart “he’s not just a great man he’s a good one”

John painting the smiley face on the wall at the end ahdkshdjsk

They are a f a m i l y. Rosie has two dads, an auntie, a cool uncle, and a badass grandma I fuckin love it

Also

Mary saying “the man we both love” and “I know you two, I know what you could become” like -

she straight up told them “just kiss already”

Illustration for chapter 1 of my new Johnlock fic Rewind.

The story is inspired by a comment left by @gardnerhill on this drawing, stating that the mole on Sherlock’s neck is his reset button. Please heed the tags for this story since the first chapter (of two) is a bit darker and angstier than my other fics.

[theories-just-for-funzies]

Here’s a list of Sherlock theories I came up with and that stuck in my brain for these past years of slowly losing sanity. They’re nothing extremely exciting, most of the time it’s just different interpretations of pre existing things.

No I will not write any meta on these for the foreseeable future, if anybody is truly cracked in the head and ends up wanting to write metas on any of these: good luck folks.

1) STAIRS:

a) There are 17 steps to get inside 221b, therefore there should be a total of 17 episodes before we actually know what’s going on behind the curtains.

b) Based on point A, going up the stairs means getting closer to the truth, going deeper. Descending the stairs means going outside of the building, looking at the facade of something. (See the “Mary building” in HLV has no stairs because “Mary” is a lie, there’s nothing to get inside of) (see also scary insane Moriarty at the end of the stairs in Sherlock’s mind palace in HLV, who’s just the stereotypical crazy bad guy with no human trait, Sherlock goes there because he needs to calm down, and there’s nothing more comforting than having a bad guy that’s just a bad guy instead of a complex, full human)

2) MARY, MUGNASSEN AND MORIARTY:

Yall already know how magpies are associated with Moriarty on multiple occasions. They’re also the theme of John and Mary’s wedding, Mary works for Moriarty, that’s a fact, not a theory. Good, now that we’ve established that: Mary works WITH Moriarty, not for, since s1, she just has something in her own interest for staying in the game now, John. I’m guessing somewhere along the road of aiding Moriarty (after the wedding, because as the magpies in the decorations suggest, the wedding was also part of the plan) she actually grows attached to John/manipulating him. She strays or plans to do so, from Moriarty’s plan because she wants to keep John alive and for herself, Magnussen finds out about this “pressure point” and threatens her to tell Moriarty, who would most likely kill her, hence why HLV.

Also I said she works WITH Moriarty because I believe magpies to be indications not only for Moriarty, but mor specifically Mary and Moriarty both working together.

3) BLUE / WATER

Any time there is a dead body there’s a blue detail in the scene, the skull painting’s background is blue, when Sherlock jump the trash bags are blue, ecc. Blue equals death. (I remember reading a blue meta a couple of years ago, but I don’t think it associated blue with death)

Carl powers died in: water. Also according to s4 Victor was drowned as well. Water = death.

There’s a lot of blue and water in s4, especially in TST, it’s like a Hannibal episode but with blue and water instead of black. That’s because I believe either Sherlock or John are dying in a hospital, as supported by a LOT of other theories. Depends on whose point of view is s4, because the stairs (see point 1) in 221 are 10 steps, a platform (TAB), and 6 steps, so something must have changed in how we see things when we turn on the platform.

4) 13th

You can just take a look at my last post . 13 years after bbc Sherlock started would be the same year when ALL canon Sherlock Holmes stories would be copyright free. In TST Mycroft (aka Gatiss) looks at the note and then says “Put me through Sherringford, please. Yes I’ll wait”, meaning the prison will last 13 more years, meaning no s5 till 2023.

Also why should anybody name a secret super-prison after Sherlock when the one contained is his sister. It doesn’t really make sense.

5) GREEN

In the first few minutes of ASIP this is very clear, more specifically the entirety of John’s solo apartment is green, the same green we also see on the wall facing the streets in 221b, the same wall that makes its way inside shots like John reacting to Sherlock and Janine kissing. So yeah, I believe the acid yellowish/green tint/color stands for (in lack of a better word) loneliness, with maybe a bit of bitterness, longing and sadness peppered in. Bonus point in TEH in the restaurant, John has a reflected white light on the side of his face, but as soon as he knows Sherlock is alive the white light takes a subtle green tint. Bonu bonus point John and Mary’s bedroom is green. Ok now I’ll stop, but you get the idea, a lot of green.

6) MOLLY

Based upon the last picture in the “spoiler” chess photoset for s4.

Sherlock black-horse Holmes is alone doing checkmate, but on Moriarty/Mycroft side we still have 4 pieces: the king (Moriarty), the tower (knowing/willing Mary), Mycroft knowing/unwilling-white-horse Holmes, and a pawn, that I believe to be Molly. Why Molly you ask? First of all, her name starts with an M and that’s sus, but also she dated Jim so she had onscreen direct interactions with Moriarty, and that’s more than I can say for everybody else. So yeah, I believe Molly may be part of Moriarty’s plan but she’s not aware and I would argue it also goes against her will

7) REDBEARD / MORIARTY / VICTOR / DRUGS

Now this is where my tin hat really shines, to the point where I wasn’t even sure if I should’ve put it in here, but alas, for the sake of fun times and maybe sparking somebody else’s genius, here we are. Also bare in mind you can read these points collectively, individually or anything in between, since I repeat, these are just for the sake of it and I didn’t give them too much thoughts.

b) Based on point A Victor is the birth name of Moriarty. Something happened to/ with Victor (most likely something very traumatic) causing him to leave. Victor “died” and was reborn as Moriarty.

a) Redbeard is Moriarty, as acknowledged by Eurus when she greets him in TFP.

d) Like point C but Sherlock and Victor didn’t even know Moriarty was part of the school

c) Victor, Sherlock and Moriarty were best buddies in school, Moriarty was jealous for the lack of attention because we all know Victor wasn’t Sherlock’s friend, and killed him, causing Sherlock’s trauma

e) Moriarty had a crush on Victor, Victor died in the fire in the country house mentioned in TFP, Moriarty wants to “burn Sherlock’s heart” in revenge, therefore “I owe you a fall”

f) Whatever happened to Victor, Sherlock is now traumatised and gets his first overdose, as bonus gift he also gets memory issues.

g) Moriarty is the one getting Sherlock on drugs and therefore causing the overdose

BTW just so you know I believe point F, G and Moriarty killing Victor to be the only actually valid points in this last bunch, the rest is just me throwing ideas like it’s a sticky hand on the wall

K I’m done, bye

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hi babe! I'm sure this has been asked before, but Google searches aren't bringing anything up for me. My question is: how did the Sherlock fandom know about Victor Trevor before the S4 finale? I've watched and re-watched the show around 12 times and I've never seen any mention of him before the ending, yet everyone seemed to take him as a canon character in Sherlock's past before the finale even released. Am I missing something obvious?

Hey Nonny!

Ahhh, Victor is actually a character in one of the original ACD stories, The Adventure of the Gloria Scott, and I believe he was a uni friend of Sherlock’s. 

A lot of people in fanon make him an old boyfriend :) He’s never EVER mentioned in SHERLOCK until the finale. And honestly I do believe he existed, but wasn’t effing Redbeard.

My Sherlockinktober 2020 ⭐

@sherlockinktober thank you so much for the prompts 💕

[devoursjohnlock]

How do you think they will explain Redbeard and Victor Trevor?

So... I see where this part of the story comes from in canon, and I suppose I will eventually write a meta on it, although there are a few things I want to do first.

As to "how they will explain" it, I don't think they need to. As crazy as I know this sounds, I think the dog bowl reveal did exactly what it needed to, we just needed to figure out how it provides context for John's story.
