the face sherlock makes on the tarmac when he realizes john doesn’t know he’s going to his death
and then him trying to protect john by saying “who knows [where i’ll go next]”
like, that right there was the love confession
oh god
sherlock, you love him so much
just say it
and then john starts making those faces trying not to cry because he won’t know where sherlock is and sherlock makes the joke to save him from crying
because if he starts, sherlock will start, and they’ll both just melt
and instead of confessing his feelings and leaving john with (what he thinks would be) that burden he makes him laugh, so john’s last memory of them is like the first night’s: laughter.
Sherlock bringing back the ‘if you’re looking for baby names’ in hlv ON THE TARMAC is so important, like, in s3 we learn how significant this one comment John made in asib really way because he hates his middle name and he knows that Sherlock was obsessed with it, so he blurts it out to get back Sherlock’s attention because he’s SO jealous and Sherlock doesn’t get it at that time but in tsot he realises what it meant and then in hlv he uses it to tell John that he understands now, that he feels the same way, but John probably forgot about the comment so Sherlock tries to tell him again that he’s in love with him but this time he tries to say it straight out but then in the last second he reconsiders because what’s the point of telling him what could have been if the chance is lost forever now any way? brnging this phrase back in s3 in its full extend is so important, take my heart
I hate this.
yep.
wow yes why do i have to suffer now fuck this shit
I FUCKING KNEW WHAT THIS WAS GOING TO BE AND I STILL DIED
someone tell tptb that they need to re-edit shspesh right now, I don’t even care if it delays it by a few weeks – David Arnold and Michael Price will understand
What do you mean re-edit? This is exactly how it was in the trailer I saw it
Ok, I just spent forever looking for this in the archives. We can never let this die!
How come this doesn’t have more notes! THIS is how Sherlock sees his pretty damn smart sexy little army doctor he wants to be corrected and forcibly handled by and elope with! I’m merely decribing THIS IS CANON.
THIS GAY SHOT WON AN EMMY.
HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS BEFORE
WHY AM I LAUGHING SO HARD
“THE MOMENT YOU REALISE IT’S ALL SHERLOCK’S FEVER DREAM IT GETS GAYER”
— a YouTube comment I saw long ago and stayed with me, engraved with fire in my heart…
^ The above tweet is a helpful clarification on the photo Talalay had previously posted (of Capaldi in his Doctor costume on the 221b set) that the Sherlock fandom was freaking out about a while back.
‘Class’ began filming in April 2016, and Peter Capaldi showed up as the Doctor in its first episode:
There has been so much amazing meta regarding EMP since S4 aired that I feel it should be somehow collected and catalogued for reference. If anyone else agrees, then I would love to set up a blog to house and tag those metas. (And with my recent health issues, I just have a lot of time on my hands)
I have reserved @sherlock-emp to store and house all meta anyone would like to submit. They will be tagged according to contributor and subject.
If you are at all interested in contributing- or know of anyone writing about EMP theory- my messenger is always open.
