Bringing my premium jokes to tumblr dot com John and Sherlock you will always be special to me

[alleycatchitchat]

being in the acd Sherlock Holmes fandom is so crazy like you know how people will read hundreds of fics about their otp falling in love in slightly different universes? We get to do that but with like,, canon tv shows and stuff

Do you think Sherlock stood outside John's door that night, just to make sure he was still there? Do you think he stands over John's bed, watching his chest rise and fall, just to assure he's still breathing? That he's alive? Do you think they talked about it when they got home? Do you think Sherlock hates how quickly John seems to get over it? Do you think Sherlock hates himself for letting himself snap like that? For letting John see that side of him? Do you think he thinks that John must hate him now?

Just something to think about...

I am so very normal about Sherlock holmes

[johnsspacesuittight]

discovered the Sherlock and Co. podcast randomly on Spotify yesterday (hey sometimes the algorithm’s not so bad) and my god is it beautiful perfect everything to me, I mean Sherlock is my one definite special interest so it’s hard to go wrong with anything even adjacent to that, but when you then have Sherlock pretty immediately list all his diagnoses importantly including ADHD and Autism I was pretty much as happy as I can be, literally spent a good chunk of my final year of uni being frustrated at all the ways people elect to just not acknowledge Sherlock’s autism/variable diagnoses nor sexuality despite like clearly making choices about how to portray him/writing some very undeniable traits for him, so I don’t think I can even express just how much I enjoy canonically autistic Sherlock

Reblog to give your favorite character a boop

Just finished re-watching His Last Vow and I don't know why I had been avoiding it for so long. It was such a rollercoaster of emotions and I don't know if I was seeing things but I swear Sherlock was on the verge of tears when he was about to go for his exile oh my god like the little redness in his eyes oh god what is wrong with me and my eyes?

He did all of that to protect his one true love John Watson. He wanted to protect Mary because he didn't want his John to be hurt.

HE KILLED A MAN FOR FLICKING HIS JOHN! FOR EMOTIONALLY ABUSING HIS JOHN!

He decided to go to exile just to protect John and ensure that he was happy with Mary.

I think I am going to cry

[teacup-captor]

God. Sorry. We went from "doctor" (episode 1, also in future episodes) to "Watson" (almost the whole podcast) to "John Hamish Watson /neg" (red headed league pt 3) to "John /aff" (gloria scott pt 2) and. M A N

I’m supposed to be working at the moment, but I’m going to take a break and say this:

I have been in the Sherlock fandom for about two years now and I am so grateful I found such a safe place.

I started watching Sherlock during a difficult time in my life.

I was hanging out with a friend one afternoon and I don’t even really know how it happened, but she convinced me to watch Sherlock.

It can take me a while to get into a show. Like… a long while. So, I was a bit wary about it, but I’m grateful for her persistence because she just sat me down and turned it on.

I’m going to admit that I didn’t instantly fall in love with it. There’s a lot to the show and (in my opinion) it can be tough to understand if you don’t pay good attention to it.

My friend and I only ended up watching two episodes. After that, I didn’t think much of it.

One evening, I was sitting on my sofa, scrolling through my TV to see what’s on and low and behold, I somehow find Sherlock.

I watch it again… and this time I can’t stop watching it. It only takes me a few days to get through the whole series, and suddenly it’s my new obsession.

I legitimately couldn’t stop thinking about it. It got worse when I found fanfiction.

Sherlock saved me. I don’t mean to be too dramatic, but it really did. I was in such a stump part of my life and reading Sherlock fanfics or watching Sherlock(TV) allowed me to feel a little lighter, like all the burden that was presented at my shoulders could just dissipate.

The creators of the show turned characters that were popular in the 1800s into something people in this century could relate to.

They got these marvelous characters and studied them in such a deep manner and brought them to life on screen, in the modern world.

And it isn’t just about the characters but it’s also about the whole feeling of the show. They show 221B Baker Street as a cozy, homey safe haven which Sherlock and John can live their adorable domestic life. It is where they plan, discuss cases, laugh, drink tea, sleep, sit by the crackling fire, watch crap telly, eat takeout, and all the things that make them feel at home.

And with Sherlock and John seeing 221B as their home, it has also had the fandom seeing it as such as well.

Just the thought of the show makes me feel comforted. It made my past self feel comforted when she was going through hell.

I know for a fact Sherlock has helped every person in the fandom someway, somehow. It’s a beautiful show that portrays intelligence, friendship, family, relationships, mystery, excitement, warmth, sadness, grief, romance, happiness… there’s too much to list.

But all the qualities of the show have allowed us fans to find a place where we can feel safe. We go to Sherlock whether we feel happy or sad, we go to Sherlock when we need comfort, we go to Sherlock when we need distraction, we go to Sherlock when we need to cry, we go to Sherlock when we need to feel something.

So, sorry for my dramatic rant but I just needed to get this off my chest.

I hope that Sherlock has offered all of you some sort of happiness.

Have a marvelous day <3

Lestrade: What’s the biggest struggle you experience living at 221B?

John: I sometimes wake up in the morning not knowing if the sound I'm hearing is my alarm or the smoke detector

part 1, maybe?

[penofsteele]

My favourite thing about ACD Johnlock is that you can essentially just cite the entire existing text as evidence. We don't even need evidence at this point, it's just there. It's a love story. The only people we have to convince are the people who haven't read them.

Mariana and Sherlock's favorite pass time is embarrassing John, they meet up on Sundays to record their "blush-o-meter" results of the week.
