How Uncle Greg Met Your Fathers

plot twist the entirety of Sherlock is Greg’s best man speech when he is at John and Sherlock’s wedding, telling the story of how they got here‏

I might love this a bit

That part is a myth. However, there have been studies that show that the longer the ring finger is than the index finger, the better. 

On that note...

When he was little he wanted to be a pirate

An official Sherlock mobile app has been released. Sherlock: The Network will be based around the third series of the BBC drama, which concluded on Sunday (January 12) with 'His Last Vow'.

The app features exclusively shot video of Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin...

Lord Moran was the rat. The wedding, obvious. I'm missing the bow, though. Help?

I love this a lot. 

But I'm having less of a problem with John's reactions - or lack thereof - then many people seem to be. And I've been wrestling with why.

...after here be spoilers...

John is a bit broken. As we all are. He's always been ashamed of it and of the crazy choices it makes him love: war, Sherlock, and now, Mary. He's an apologetic adrenaline junkie. 

Why wasn't John more upset with Sherlock after he 'died'? Easy one. He understands that Sherlock was trying to protect him: It's what he'd do himself. 

Why wasn't John more upset with Mary for lying to him? Still pretty easy. He is upset with her – he doesn’t seem to talk to her for a good long time. And he’s not more upset, in the end, because it is his fault, a bit. He wouldn't have chosen her if she wasn't a disaster that needed fixing. And everybody in the sitting room - all disasters needing fixing - knew that full well.

Now, the hard one. Why wasn't John more upset with Mary for shooting John? John is, at least on the surface, okay with Mary shooting Sherlock because he feels personally responsible. It is his job to keep Sherlock safe and he brought someone dangerous into Sherlock's safe zone. It isn't Mary's fault that she's dangerous - it's her wiring. It's John's fault for putting the two crazy choices together; one was going to hurt the other eventually. It was his job to keep them both safe and he let them hurt each other.

But with that said, while I do believe that John has forgiven Mary entirely for hurting him, I am not sold on the idea that John has forgiven Mary entirely for hurting Sherlock. And I think we’ll see that eventually.

People have been reblogging my John Watson post recently. And I can see why. I re-read it today and I was most struck by this line:

Sherlock may be an undeniable hurricane-strength force whirling through John’s life but John also chose him.

No, says Sherlock in HLV. John chose Mary. And...

Irene Adler: I could cut myself slapping that face

Molly Hooper: I fucking beg to differ

Mycroft let Sherlock name their dog after his pirate fixation. 

 if you listen carefully you can hear my heart crumbling to pieces

Loo Brealey is breathtaking. 

I could get behind the idea of a Mr. Geoff Hooper.

Smoooooooth

And let's not forget all of the other actors who already WERE badasses before they were in Love Actually. Two words: Emma Thompson.  

Several stars who were virtually unknown in Love Actually later became badasses

#Sherlock - His Last Vow: sometimes, somebody has to die. Tomorrow, 8.30pm on @BBCOne.

She is so mobile and expressive and utterly gorgeous.

Mary Morstan’s perfect face

The fact that this made me laugh out loud has me rethinking my life choices.

But only a little bit.

How does this show do funny and adorable and exciting and heartbreaking ALL AT ONCE. 

YES IT WAS.

These two chairs make my heart hurt more than home furnishings really have any right to.

Thank you

I feel like this moment deserves a bit more attention

I got a Sally/Greg vibe here that I never got before. I think they could like each other quite a lot. On good days. 

there go my heroes, watch them as they go there go my heroes, they’re ordinary

Question: was it just the extra shots that John snuck in, or did Molly miscalculate for Sherlock on purpose in order to get them both hammered?

now that’s is a party i want to be a part of

SITTY THING is the best two words to ever have been televised. 

this is the literal best thing to happen to me

I now will never not think this

The eyebrow raise at the end is what killed me. As floored as John is, he still automatically knows Sherlock needs help realizing - a bit not good.
