#it's his 2nd scene and i'm already smitten

Yim Si-wan as Ahn Dae-beom SUMMER STRIKE (2022)

[rey-jake-therapist]

I'm just reading your post now @aveline-amelia , I don't know why but it's part of Tumblr mystery I guess :)

As we far as I'm concerned I had no idea who was even playing Mycroft before I watched season 3, so I headcanoned Mycroft as gay without knowing that the actor who played him also was lol I seldom am interested in the real persons behind the characters, I usually discover who plays who when I'm getting passionate about a show, which for Sherlock didn't really happen before the last episode of season 2.

Tbh I find the idea that a character must be gay if the actor's gay a bit... weird? I never saw someone claim that since Ben's straight so is Sherlock and for a good reason: actors aren't their characters, characters have a life that's entirely dissociated from the actor's life. The queen's joke.... I seriously doubt that Sherlock and John would make fun of anyone's sexuality tbh, so for me it was just a very childish joke based on Mycroft "better than you lot"'s general behavior.

Fun fact: I was completely oblivious to the "Sherlock phenomenon" when it actually happened. I saw Martin Freeman say they were like the Beatles but maybe (probably) because I didn't live in England or USA, I don't think I even knew there was a new Sherlock Tv series airing 😅 So I missed all the frenzy and all the theories... That seemed wild, and probably sometimes, fun?

Now about the attempt to straighten the characters: regarding Sherlock, I don't think so. First because it was only John who tried to convince Sherlock that he needed to date Irene, and as @maryholmes94 pointed out in another thread recently, it was mostly about him losing Mary, and not that much about Sherlock's happiness. I think Sherlock understood that too and he didn't give any indication that he would follow John's advice.

He compared himself texting Irene back sometimes to John texting a woman he was emotionally cheating on Mary with, so surely it implied he was attracted to her the same way John was attracted to Eurus, but on this subject I may seem brutally honest and I apologize in advance; for me, and many viewers, it was hardly a new information. In ASIB I didn't see Sherlock and Irene's interactions as platonic, not even from his side... when he whispered "The woman" the 2nd time at the end of the EP it sounded like a man who was smitten to my ears, and when in S3 he saw Irene show up naked in his mind palace while he was working on an urgent case, wondered where she was and told her "not now I'm busy"... I didn't read this as a platonic reaction to her memory. Of course that's just an interpretation, and I'm not saying that you or anyone else shouldn't read this scene differently! But since that's the way I interpret things, I can't see this last scene involving Irene's name as the authors straightening Sherlock. Moffat once said he was neither gay or straight and that's my opinion as well. I'm just not big on labels, and I like that when it comes to detective like Sherlock or Hercule Poirot, their sexuality is irrelevant, never defined and thus left to the imagination of the audience. I hate that Elementary insisted so much to make Sherlock straight for example, it was unnecessary, not to mention that they made him the worst kind of straight guy, who makes sexist comments to and about women and gets away with it because "uh uh fun". Yuk.

Now regarding Mycroft, I agree his thing with Lady Smallwood would come out of nowhere if it wasn't for the conversation he had with Sherlock in HLV. I guess he realized he wanted a goldfish after all :) The way it's made, and if we assume he and Lady Smallwood didn't have sex that day in the office, it's just as possible that they become just friends and keep their relationship platonic, which would be already a HUGE step for Mycroft!

Hello. This might seem a bit random, but did Moftiss, especially Gatiss, ever say anything concrete about Mycroft's sexuality? I know he made jokes about young men in his house and about sexual tension of Mycroft & Mrs Hudson and there was the whole thing with Lady Smallwood. But I have seen a person say that Gatiss said something about what he thinks/believes his sexuality is (in reference to Mycroft being gay). Do you know anything about that, or know someone who does? I could really use help.

Hey Nonny! *HUGS*

As far as I know, no, nothing has been ever said, other than in TEH there's the "goldfish" conversation between the brothers that, to me, can be implied either he has or hasn't had a "goldfish". Personally, I think he's asexual and aromantic in BBC Sherlock, but AGAIN, that's MY reading of him, nothing concrete and not agreed upon by anyone.

I haven't seen anything official, but I also haven't read and watched every interview ever. Maybe years and years ago? Not sure!!

Anyone have any info they can provide?? Sorry I'm not much help, Nonny. Most of my character studying was with John, Mary and Sherlock 🙃

ok~ since I don't really have anything to add to your contract post (as always, I agree 100% with what you said) and I don't really like talking about serious stuff (i'm always emo, but for some reason when i say it out loud my sarcastic ass always make it sound like idk about anything even though i'm LEGIT crying when I'm alone in my room or in the bathroom at work god) I was just thinking I could name a couple of random things I just thought about, just to share the love and lift the mood(1/5)

since the break up I couldn’t really listen to their songs without feeling sad so I just didn’t (that was like, what?, 6 months without hearing b1a4), but yesterday I finally had the courage and I’m so happy that I did. before I knew it “because of you” came on and man do I love that song like shinwoo rapping and voice is so on point and everyone sounds so lovely and urghh I was singing along and smiling, and since we are talking about great songs can we talk about the best EP to ever exist(2/5)I’m talking about what’s happening of course, I was going to mention starlight song, but who am I kidding I could talk hours about good love too???? it’s such a good song??? gongchan singing the first lines is pure art. Also I was reading your cnu megapost and you said that you didn’t fall for him right away, and it’s funny cause that’s the mv that did it for me lmao the absurdity of that video, how freaking CUTE they looked, gongchan little curls so adorable, baro and deul being extremely (3/5)funny, jinyoung being awkward ofc and, probably what started my love/want to punch you story with him, that freaking scene with him smiling in prison, like dude seriously? I’M WEAK his perfect little face drives me mad. and lastly, but not least, the long hair styled like that (I really liked those braids i’m sorry lol), the glasses, those playful winks and lip bites.. his beautiful smile idk more than anything else I just found his face really attractive? and while I’ll forever treasure (4/5)and miss those times, I’m ready for new and better things. I guess at the end of the day, I just want shinchandeul to be happy, to remember the past with love like we do but also know that sometimes things don’t go how we plan them and that’s life, we can get mad and cry, but we need to get up again. they will always have our support, i believe in them (that’s it, play road, suddenly i’m an emotional mess again) god this ended up being extra long im so sorry i just got so excited (5/5)

me reading your asks:

the biggest YES ever to all of this, bless you for spreading some much needed positivity and good vibes~

And I literally agree with everything you say here like I’m not even kidding ‘Because of You’ for the longest time was one of my favorite b-sides (I mean it still is one of my faves) and CNU’s rap is so cute and charming in it. Totally underrated everyone should experience how sweet that song is.

And ‘What’s Happening?’ EP?? Literally the best, most cohesive EP they have. It’s always been in my top three albums, sometimes trading places with ‘Good Timing’ album for 2nd place. AND DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON ‘GOOD LOVE’ OH SHIT THOSE TRUMPETS AND SYNTHS GET ME EVERY TIME. Admittedly, I’m partial to ‘How Many Times’ though myself, I think that’s my fave b-side on the EP. I mean ‘Starlight’s Song’ speaks for itself though, literally one of their prettiest tracks. That shit’s just fukin gorgeous and luckily (and unlike ‘Good Love’ and ‘How Many Times’) I feel like ‘Starlight’s Song’ is at least more known and appreciated. Damn that mini was just… gold. I mean ‘What’s Happening’ is and will always be my favorite era so I cannot say a single bad thing about it. There was just so much… good energy and good vibes. So much growth. Ah I gotta stop or I’m going to get emotional now ;;;;

Yeah like while ‘Beautiful Target’ made me fall for them as a group (largely cause of the reasons you listed and lmaoo totally agree about Jinyoung even then with that swarmy smile that was both so handsome yet infuriatingggg) CNU def didn’t grab my attention initially with that MV…. it’s so strange cause you’d think I’d remember the exact moment where it finally clicked and I was like ok I love him he’s my bias but I don’t really… all I know is that it didn’t take too much longer lol by the time 2012 rolled around I was already pretty smitten… *sighs*

Same as far as A3 too… in a perfect world, I just want them to be able to look back fondly on their days as five, as rookies and trainees up until their 7th year anniversary as wonderful times of growth and development, along with friendships that they formed that will never be replaced or forgotten– but in the same vain, I want them to be able to cleanly move forward with no regrets as three, and follow the new paths that they want, knowing that us fans will always be there supporting them~ 

Thanks so much for reading my contract megapost, and for sharing your thoughts here! I’m glad you’re back (and able to listen to Bipo again~), I missed talking to you!! ♡ ♡
