going to ride these endorphins for a long minute
'Sherlock' recap: Season 3, Episode 2, 'The Sign of Three' | Metro US
You guys, I was the toast of Tumblr last night after basically every BNF in Sherlock fandom linked to my Metro recap of The Sign of Three. I'm 99% fannish enthusiast, not creator, so the last 12 hours on the other side have been like one long fizzy high. I mean, I had a ton of fun writing these (here's The Empty Hearse, which IMO is funnier and just as ho-YAY!) and could say that's its own reward, but there is nothing more validating than the enthusiasm of hardcore fans.
PS. All fannish emotion aside, I could defend every word of it to my editor as an unbiased assessment of what happened in the episode. This stuff writes itself.
PPS. This would've crossed a line at the end, yeah? "Sherlock gathers his coat to the strains of “December 1963 (Oh, What a Night!)” - specifically “why’d it take so long to see the light,” because even the DJ can see his anguish about missing his chance to make an honest man of John - and leaves just as the reception kicks into full swing.” Yeah, too much. You've seen the episode though, and that's totally what happened.
PPPS. This one time, South Korea was not exaggerating.
