elementary/luther crossover
“In 1988, two psychologists published an article arguing that positive self-deception is a normal and advantageous part of most people’s life. It turns out people lie to themselves about three things: they view themselves in implausibly positive ways, they think they have far more control over their life’s than they actually do and they believe the future will be better than the evidence of the present can possibly justify. But we’re way beyond that now; we’re on the other side of that particular mirror.”
did i just sit here and doodle joan for six hours? yes. yes i did.
you know, she solved you.
Moriarty is the Napoleon of crime, Watson. She is the organizer of half that is evil and nearly all that is undetected in this great city. She is a genius, a philosopher, an abstract thinker. She has a brain of the first order.
I have no intention of capturing M, I have every intention of capturing, torturing and murdering him.
I’m afraid of what he might force me to do

I have seen people expressing dismay that the iconic figure of Irene Adler was supposedly merged with or ‘rolled into’ another character, essentially subsumed by Moriarty, and I just emphatically don’t think that’s the case.
It’s Professor Moriarty who has been erased or…

“You talked to one of my lieutenants. He has, over the years, played the role repeatedly and with great conviction. More often than not, he’s done so to protect my identity. Other times, it was because I suspected a potential client might.. struggle with my gender. As if men had a monopoly on murder.”
#let me explain to you how genius the deconstruction of Irene Adler is #because in making her a conscious manipulation; an artful and purposeful creation by moriarty in order to ensnare sherlock #they have destroyed The Woman; the one individual who eclipsed the whole of her sex and at whose feet Sherlock fell #they’ve taken the goddess down off her pillar and revealed the woman in the fridge was a doll all along #Irene Adler is only a story; can only ever be a story; because there is no Woman #only women #and they are villains as well as heroines and they are clever even when they make mistakes and they can hold the world together whether to take advantage of it or to save it for the people they love but there is no Woman #there never could be #and Sherlock had to learn that #elementary #the best goddamn show #your favs could never

I really appreciate a show that has the confidence not to end a season with a cliffhanger. I think it gives the fans credit to say, we believe you have the mental capacity to go a few months without the show and still remain interested just on the merit of the show and not your curiosity on steriods.
So thanks Elementary. I will return when you do.
