in 2025 let’s bring back being enthusiastic on ao3. leave a comment on every chapter. leave kudos and, if necessary, leave “double kudos” in the comments. tags and notes on bookmarks. the whole nine yards. let’s show fanfic authors how much we love them.
EXACTLY
I only realized this later but it's so out of character for Sherlock to brush off John and hang out with Mary because 'she is better.' NO NO SHE IS NOT, especially not to the guy who LITERALLY spent a whole wedding moping and sad because he'd now have to share John. All that, just to push John away in the next season???
What the actual fuck was that
Huh????
It's like... Sherlock and Mary, featuring John as a side character who is stupid every now and then but otherwise unimportant
And the finale?????? It felt so... staged and John didn't even help? Just call her an ambulance for fuck's sake
A German Standoff is when you are standing opposite of each other at a red traffic light and there are no cars in sight but nobody wants to be the first to commit an Ordnungswidrigkeit
The real reason that genius detective characters in fiction change authors and actors so often is that without periodic hard resets, they eventually start figuring out that they're fictional characters. It's the metafictional equivalent of cycling an AI to prevent it from going rogue. For many years it was believed that killing them off in a suitably dramatic "final case" would indefinitely suspend the process, but this was later determined not to be fully reliable – as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle learned, to his regret.

My partner critiques my fics in memes, I felt this on a very personal level.
@vrioloki ?
Are you bored lately? Do you have case at the moment ? Are you aroace ? Do you want a riddle?
Those are many questions for one ask. I am working on a case, but I couldn't solve it yet. It's irritating. I'm waiting for more information about the case from the police and the labs. It's tedious, I've a case but I'm bored with waiting.
I'm always ready for a riddle.

It was more of like...
You know when you get a new toy for Christmas, and then you play with it, and then you play with it, and then you play with it? And... after a while you get another new toy! And then you throw the other one in the trash cuz...
you kinda got bored of the old one.
