I just want to thank you for being so willing to say that you no longer subscribe to tj//lc. I never believed in it since s3 was an enormous slap in the face to me that I’d never trust mofftiss again. But after s3, I got the impression from that fan circle that I was no longer welcome to ship Johnlock. Any depiction of Sherlock where he wasn’t an innocent woobie bottom was “dfp”, if you didn’t like s3 you were a “casual”… I was even called a sherl0ll1an despite hating that fucking awful ship.

Thank you Nonny, I really do appreciate it!

I’ve never shied away from admitting that I used to be a TJ/LCer and post S4 am no longer. I 100% believe that the show was gay, they put all that in there, we didn’t imagine it. And yes I believe they are guilty of gaslighting johnlockers (and I really don’t give two shits if some current tin hatters are uncomfortable with that, because TPTB are totally guilty of it).

Johnlock existed long before BBC Sherlock and will exist long after everyone has forgotten who Mofftiss are. TJ/LC doesn’t own Johnlock, it belongs to all of the fans. And you are welcome to ship that anyway you want, toplock, bottomlock ,wobbie Sherlock, dfp Sherlock etc etc.

Because guess what, if I don’t like the same thing you do I DON’T HAVE TO READ IT. And yeah, I’ve been called an anti because I don’t believe in Mofftiss. Honestly, fuck um. Those folks who seems to think they’re the bnfs don’t matter. All Johnlockers are welcome on this blog. I have friends that salt, that tin hat, that don’t care either way, that don’t blog Sherlock anymore…I like people for who they are not for how they ship johnlock or if they do or don’t think Mofftiss are pieces of shit.

Again, thanks Nonny. Seriously come off anon and talk to me anytime. I’m always happy to shoot the johnlock shit with folks 😘

I still call myself a TJLCer simply because I don’t think we need the creators’ permission for johnlock to be canon. Too bad Moffat & Gatiss weren’t in on the conspiracy

sussexbound:

Today I am so grateful for Granada Holmes, for the ACD canon, for Furtive Festivity, and all the other adaptations where John and Sherlock’s relationship is, quite rightly, front-and-centre, the very heart of the story.

I’m so grateful for all the fandom creatives out there, still creating beautiful Sherlockian universes filled with mutual love, and respect, with adventure, and friendship, and loyalty, and tenderness.  

I’m so grateful, too, for all the fans out there supporting that work by liking, reblogging, commenting, sending kudos, dropping some pennies in the coffee cups of your favourite artists and authors.  

This is why I’m still here.  This is why I’ll probably still be here for a very long time.  Thank you for making the Sherlock Holmes Fandom a wonderful place to be.

Sherlock Megawatchalong Incoming

finalproblem:

Hello! Wanted to follow up from earlier in the week—sounds like folks are interested in having a giant BBC Sherlock marathon this weekend, so I will be setting that schedule up.

I won’t be able to actually have the schedule live until at least this evening because of work (and I work late), but if you need more details for personal planning purposes… The schedule will be the same as the last time we did this, just with all the dates shifted forward to now.

More details and the proper schedule will be posted on my blog and the @unlockedcon Tumblr as soon as I’m able. 😘

Benedict doing motion capture 2012(The Hobbit) VS 2015(Mowgli)
in the same clothes..

This might be explaining where no explanation is needed but I feel the urge: Theatre directors 95% of the time ask for actors’ rehearsal clothes to be plain, with no patterns so they don’t distract from what’s going on on stage. Also to better see the actor’s movement and give feedback. The clothes also need to be comfy and stretchy, in case you do some falls or big movement shite like kneels and squats or whatever.

The common actor is also a creature of habit and craves comfort and simplicity. So once we find our perfect rehearsal emsemble we will NEVER let it go. This shit needs to fall off of our dead beaten post-performance bodies. I don’t wanna have to think about what imma wear tomorrow for rehearsal if i know i have to cry on command over my dead imaginary child that’s currently portrayed by a towel. So gimme those black lulus and that grey mens t-shirt with the collar cut away.

You wear those adidas pants and that boring bridge shirt, Benedict. Wear them and BE SHEER KHAN.

MH: Ugh! Finally! I take it you’re still abroad? 

SH: [sigh] Oh, come one, you know the answer to that

MH: Certain cells of The Network have gone rather … quiet. They’re not with you, by any chance? 

SH: [annoyed/sarcastic(?)] No. I have not been hiding them. This is not an international game of sardines. 

MH: [sigh] Concerning … I don’t suppose you, uh, fancy returning?

SH: [distant from the phone] No, not really. 

MH: {indistinguishable} I thought not. Well then. You’ve driven me to it. We are simply short of minds. No amount of quiet recruitment can compensate for our sheer dearth of numbers. We shall have to recruit … [with disdain] publicly.

SH: [disbelieving] Recruit … real people?

MH: Real people. 

SH: Mycroft, you know you can’t trust them. They’re into all sorts of … strange things: high protein yogurts, photographs of food, voting. 

MH: Yes, but at least they’re replaceable. 

SH: There’s so many of them!

MH: More and more every day. It’s horrifying. You can’t stop them spawning. [laughingly] Believe me, we’ve tried. 

SH: Well, good luck, with them, obviously. Sweden sends its regards. 

MH: [excited] It does?

SH: No, not really.
