"Doesn't she mean anything to you? You once almost killed a man because he laid a finger on her." - John Sherlock proceeds to kill a man for laying a finger on John.
Sherlock probably didn't tell John in case sherlock died dismantling the web. I mean, giving hope to John that he would come back, if he died trying to dismantle the web, after John already thinks he's dead would be just cruel to let him go through that twice. (Remember that scene where he told Molly that Jim was gay because it was kinder saving her time, maybe that's why he didn't tell John, in case he died. Saving his time so he wouldn't have to grieve twice?) He only told who he had to. Brain over heart, maybe because that's what he knows works and wasn't taking any chances. He still cried, saying goodbye, not knowing if he'd ever see John again. John made him laugh before he jumped, that must've impacted John, maybe thinking why that wasn't enough. Why he wasn't enough. The reason Sherlock disappeared was to dismantle Moriarty's web, we all know that. Sherlock dismantled Moriarty's web just to be with John, he was willing to go through hell and back for that. If Moriarty's web didn't think he was dead, that he died, John would die. So this was risky. He had to kill the whole web so not even one could get to John if they found out Sherlock was alive. And thus he faked his death for 2 years. He had to disappear and dismantle it if he wanted him and John to be together. To be with John, so he could keep him safe forever. He could've just died, so John would be 100% safe, but he decided to risk it all for John. John had no idea what was happening got pissed at Sherlock when he came back, I mean, your best mate pretending he was dead for 2 years and then coming back cracking a joke? Sherlock probably cracked that joke, well, on a whim. We all know he isn't good with social ques. Sherlock probably thought that John would either laugh or well… Get mad. You could see the uncertaincy in his face. After he got punched Sherlock - (Irene saying "Someone loves you-" because John punched his cheek and avoided his nose and mouth, well, this time John went for the nose.) - did try to explain to John in that diner what happened when he 'died' and what he had to do, but John wasn't having it. He just wanted to know why he didn't tell him he was alive. Sherlocks excuse was that John would tattle. Why he said that instead of the reason I gave above, maybe sentiment, or even greater, human error. Well, now Sherlock wont tell John what happened, maybe so John wouldn't feel guilty. idk what do u guys think
This scene was so beautifully performed. The way John stepped next to Mycroft, as if it were an important game choice. Oh wait.
Eurus and Moriarty made that plan together 3 years before the fall, so Moriarty knew Sherlock would be alive for it to happen. That he would survive whatever he would put him through. So why did he kill himself and make the fall happen, on impulse? He planted the hitmen after knowing about the plan he made with Eurus, so he knew John and Sherlock would survive so why did he checkmate himself? The name Moriarty means to die is an art, maybe it was for the act of ruining Sherlock. After all, he really devoted his life to destroying Sherlock. Him killing himself closes off some of Sherlocks options so that he has to either save his friends or himself. But if he knew it wasn't going to work, why try? Maybe he wanted Sherlock to suffer with the Reichenbach fall before that plan he and Eurus made were to happen. For his relationship with John to suffer to see if he would still pick John. But how could Moriarty see that if he died, what would the point of that whole plan be? Ruin Sherlock? I think it would make much more sense if Moriarty did live. But Moffat said that his death is confirmed.
“Please. No. Please,” he rasped out on shallow breaths.
“Sherlock!” the familiar voice cried out in relief, grabbing at his arm.
Sherlock recoiled with what little strength he had left. “No,” he whispered on another sob. “No more…”
This is my most popular #BbcSherlock fan art on ao3. I suspect it's because people loves #Bamf!JohnWatson and wishes he was the one who freed Sherlock from his captivity. The inspiration came from the fiction "Extraction" by Holmesian_Love
Many other fictions have described a similar scene, if I'm not mistaken. Do you have any fiction with this situation to suggest for my "mark for later list"?
And there’s Sherlock, in the loneliest place on Earth - in the middle of a dance floor, no partner, all the couples swirling around him.
--The Sign of Three Final Shooting Script
he’s a detective. he has completely normal parents. he’s not one for sentiment but he also moved a chair back into the living room while bleeding internally. he is very tall. he does not know what jupiter is. he’s memorized different types of ash. he knows how to delicately fold little napkins. he whips dead people for fun. when he was young he wanted to be a pirate. he has a wardrobe full of disguises. he likes dancing! he has also killed people
SH: Not on the maps, but once you eliminate the other factors, the remaining thing must be the truth.
Four times John took a chance on Sherlock, and that one time he didn’t.
This is the part they didn’t show you in The Final Problem.
That rope was for Sherlock to climb down into the well to John. John had been struggling to keep his head clear of the water for a good while, and he was getting exhausted; hypothermia starting to set in. It was going to be another 10 minutes or so before the police arrived to unchain John and get all of them out of there, but that could seem an endless and fatal time for a fatigued man barely able to get a gasp of air.
Sherlock was quite a bit taller than John, so he took it upon himself to clamber down into the well and take on John’s weight so his friend could rest. How overwhelmed with relief he must be to be able to finally save his best friend from that cursed well. At this moment, it’s just the two of them, nothing else and no one else mattered.

Coffee and then, Coffee
by helloliriels
We ran around, late in to night -
barely stopping,
barely breathing.
Quick ready laughter
touched
Our sides.
.
Can't recall
the last time I
genuinely laughed
before.
Had I?
Had you?
Carefree?
.
You drank coffee,
I drank tea.
.
A crack and then,
the man was down.
You kneeling to catch
hands
in cuffs -
breath
in huffs.
Exhilarating -
Me and you,
You and me.
.
If I had feelings,
you'd be
the first
to see.
.
You grab a coffee,
I order tea.
.
Sorry I can't do a double.
Another mistake.
They thought
that
you and I
Were
mine and me?
You protest again, yet
I say
nothing.
What is it people -
unobservant,
see?
"Something sweet for you two, then?"
"Black, no sugar"
"Tea, yes. Three."
.
The frequency changed
Why, you can't say...
Your eyes they catch
mine
Looking back;
They lock together
Constantly.
The air electric
Radiates.
A sudden gruff
avoidance starts.
You seem to be ...
Angry with me?
.
Frustration sounds,
In every huff.
In every snark.
In every bite:
Coffee,
And then,
Coffee.
.
And still
Here I
Sip tea.
.
It's over now.
The villain caught.
the risk I took
too readily...
Will you bark?
Will you bite?
.
Your eyes,
they shine back
dangerously.
.
Curious.
He ... ?
.
I raise a hand
to ask - on guard;
You're straining now
against a force -
A force that's not
unknown to me...
.
You take my cup;
When next I move.
Expecting rage
Not sympathy.
.
"there's sugar there"
"know that, ta!"
"but you...?"
I pause,
and blink -
"Coffee?"
.
I fixate on:
Your lips,
Your eyes,
The cup that's raised.
The white of teeth.
.
You're sipping then
hold smooth a while -
a while and then,
hand back to me.
.
"You know, I tried," you say,
"I tried - "
But I deduce:
"You like the tea?"
You nod and then
hear myself say
a thought aloud:
"Well then,
kiss me."
.
Amazed.
by the
simplicity,
we shift
from
I
and
You
to
WE
.

Inktober No. 20 - Courageous
This is the first time I have done a two-part thing (same style, same lightning etc.) So this is the counterpart to ‘melancholy’ from a few days ago.
Prompt from @bluebellofbakerstreet’s amazing promptlist for 2022.
I am flattered if you reblog, but don’t post my art on other sites/social media or use without my written permission.
I tend to think about S4 as a real life Reichenbach.
They made us believe something, built up to it and then committed suicide.
And if everything works out just fine (i.e. media shifts to a more queer positive mindset, the Estate loses their rights, stars align, they survive being captured in Serbia,...) they'll come back with a fanfare declaring all of it a fraud.
And explaining it all in detail.
Guys, is there anyone still waiting for a series five? Are we officially at the point where there is no hope anymore? It's been. So. Long.
Gosh, I miss the meta. I miss analyzing new material.
I lost hope but am still waiting somehow. Any news or thoughts on that front?
This is probably just a heads up to let people know, there are still others who are rooting for a series 5 and canon johnlock.
Tagging ppl here, hope you don't mind @gosherlocked @the-7-percent-solution @finalproblem @thepersianslipper @wellthengameover @kinklock @thewatsonbeekeepers
Inktober No.5 - Transparent
Again, I tried something with really bad reference material. It was blurry and low res. Hope it works nevertheless.
