Well, they fit a lot into that one, didn't they?
Things I loved: EVERYONE'S FACES. The idea of framing Sherlock for the cases he solves -- man, I was hoping that there'd be HEAPS MORE fairy-tale crimes and everything would keep pointing back to Sherlock, but the plot just sort of zoomed gleefully on past.
Everything with Sherlock and John was amazing amazing amazing and I kept clutching my face in sheer bittersweet joy. Happily, Tumblr is already gif-ing the shit out of it all.
I didn't catch on to what a gorgeously clever choice of music 'Sinner Man' was until I listened to the full song after watching the episode, and fuck. It was never about Moriarty at all.
Where you gonna run to?
The devil said: sinner man, step right in.
And MOLLY, HELL TO THE *YES*, as soon as Sherlock went back to see her I was like OH YEAH, THERE ARE GOING TO BE SOME EXCELLENT TRICKS WITH CORPSES GOING ON HERE. I can't believe we have to wait an age and a half to find out what the trick was, but no doubt fandom will come up with at least five plausible ideas in the meantime.
(Oh, fandom. I am looking forward to reading everyone's take on the inevitable reunion scene like you wouldn't believe.)
I haven't written anything for this fandom yet, despite the fact that its aesthetic slots into the way I write quite nicely. I've been waiting for ideas that I truly want to handle, that I don't just want to read, but want to spin words around.
And now of course I have not one but TWO such ideas.
Heeeeere we go.
