"Beautiful, isn't it?"

—— SHERLOCK, The Great Game

WAIT.

WHAT IF

What if the “my love” is John.

“Give my love to Mary.”

This paints an entire different layer of meaning to Sherlock‘s words.

Sherlock: John, I am forced to tell you that I'm in love with you. Please accept my confession.

John: You are forced to tell me? Who on earth can force you to do something against your will?

Sherlock: Our landlady.

John: Mrs H?

Sherlock: Is that really the most important part of my confession?

John: I'm still processing the other part. So yeah. How can she force you?

Sherlock: She threatened to throw us out.

John: Why would she do that?

Sherlock: She said she's fed up with us 'pining'. Whatever she means with that. So, do you accept?

John: I … do you mean it?

Sherlock: Naturally. How could I not love you, John? That should be obvious. Even Gerrit knows how I feel and he's not very perceptive.

John: Wow. I honestly don't know what to say. I mean, yes. Yes, of course. I love you Sherlock, have done for years.

Sherlock: Perfect. Let me inform Mrs H that we'll stay.

John: shouts Oi, don't run away! This conversation is not over yet!

Sherlock: Are we fighting or flirting?  John: I'm pinning you against a wall with my hand around your neck-  Sherlock: Your point?
