Anonymous asked: So you think John is safe? You are sadly mistaken, see i never died Sherlock I've been waiting watching and now your john is mine... unless....

I don’t feel any urge to respond to this, John. Do you?

No not really.

Then let’s leave it in peace.

Deal. 

Do we have a meeting later?

For the case?

Yes.

Noon at Bart’s.

Anonymous asked: Why is it spelled "tumblr" and not "tumbler?"

David Karp had been interested in tumblelogs (short-form blogs) for a time and, when being creative, named the website after this by jamming it together to form a verb.

I never knew that. Interesting.

Yes, John, that’s how knowledge works. It’s always interesting the first time around.

Oh, don’t ruin our bloody walk. We’re having a nice time.

Anonymous asked: has it ever occurred to you that you are a brain piloting a huge pile of meat

Very frequently, yes, but currently I am enjoying a cup of tea with John and would not like to read these things while I’m doing so.

See you are sentimental.

No, I merely don’t desire to read that now.

What do you think of that lady over there?

Brunette?

Yes.

On/off relationship with her girlfriend, very insecure due to past bullying issues, can’t seem to decide on a career, and is faced with anxiety attacks.

How?

Her girlfriend is directly opposite of her, she continues to glance around the room for people judging her and continues to hide her mouth behind her arm and sleeve, the papers on the table have different career options (Plus no one in their right mind would be thinking about that this late unless they had a demanding job, which she doesn’t.), and the anxiety is just a presumption when considering the bullying.

Just say it.

Brilliant, Sherlock. 

How’s the tea?

Don’t you already know?

Yes, but I need to make sure I’m correct.

You’re always correct, nonetheless the tea being enjoyable.

Anonymous asked: Sherlock, I know you're not the best at cooking, making coffee, etc. (don't ask me how I know that), but surely you, John, are a decent cook. Do you ever make a little dinner for Sherlock? Or try to teach him a few things? It would be very romantic of you to cook him a nice dinner while he's not on a case. I feel he would appreciate it, whether he says so or not.

I won’t ask you because I already know.

I do make dinner for Sherlock very frequently, but I’ve never really attempted to teach him- he’s not one to do things he doesn’t want to do.

And I don’t really want to do that.

Exactly.

Anonymous asked: I'd say it's very likely that someone (presumably Moriarty, as he was the main perpetrator involved in the case), used classical conditioning to enforce a response such as the one the little girl had. There's a famous case study (known familiarly as Little Albert) in which a boy was conditioned using fear to associate two things using fear. The little girl may associate something painful done to her with the image of Mr. Holmes, as per classical conditioning.

You’re explanation sounds presumably reasonable. It was my original thought upon the situation.

Anonymous asked: Why, Sherlock? (Re: being in the pub while you were 'dead.')

Alcohol obviously numbs the brain and knowing John refrains from such things, I knew that I would never find him there. It eased the loneliness.

Anonymous asked: Have either of you been attracted to men before falling for each other? Sherlock, do your feelings for John equate to those you had of Adler? John, I'm surprised you could be in a nonsexual relationship, based on your er Internet history Sherlock had mentioned before, so how are you coping with it? When did you two fall for eachother? Sorry for so many questions!

I wasn’t attracted to anyone before John.

I had thought about it, but I stuck with girlfriends.

Yes- you had somewhere around twenty.

Should I feel honored that you remembered it?

If you wish.

My feelings for The Woman were never quite of love or attraction- I was intrigued by her knowledge and actions, so no. I see John differently.

Who said anything about my internet history?

Actually, anyone’s logs on the internet are nowhere near private.

Concerning the type of relationship and my internet history: I, uh, want to abide by his wishes. At the moment he wants to refrain from such things and I will not, erm, pressure him. These questions are horrible.

They’re quite realistic. I’m amazed at how long it took them to ask us this.

Nice choice in words, Anon. Fall. Very funny.

It was almost an experiment. It began for me when I was dead, John around Baskerville. The fact that you could acquire such strong feelings for someone without seeing them in person was rather astonishing for me to discern.

He’s right about Baskerville.

I’m true regarding to everything.

You forgot how to brush your teeth this morning, Sherlock. Don’t act like such a prat.

Anonymous asked: Between you two, who's the worse drinker?

I don’t drink, so he is.

You all would have loved to see me when I was dead. I was at the pub at least three nights of the week. Don’t ask why.

Anonymous asked: John, who is your favorite Companion?

I am fond of Rose, just as every other viewer is. Clara is nice, too. I’m not very picky about the companions.

Frankly, he’s not very selective over anything.

Well you’re straightforwardly unpleasant this evening, aren’t you?

According to you I am, but my mind isn’t too crowded or vacant so I shouldn’t come off this way. In fact, when bearing in thought your splendid day at work, you should be delighted I’m even talking at all. Normally I would be gnawing at the violin at this time.

I have noticed this and in doing so I almost wish you would be at your violin while staring out the window. No need in spoiling my mood.

Perspective, John. I cannot make your mood rotten; only you have that privilege. Would you like for me to play it? 

Only if it will shut you up. 

Sonata Greca it is then.

Anonymous asked: Acknowledging that you don't want any tattoos, Mr. Holmes, how do you feel about piercings? And if you were to adorn your body with some sort of art - what would it be? What about you, Dr. Watson? -KB

Why are we being asked such questions?

Because we made a blog to do so.

I understand that when I say this John will agree: we are both not interested in any body embellishments for ourselves.

Yes, he’s spoken my thoughts wholly.
