A Meme of Her Own Making

Happy New Year, friends and listers!

I felt like posting about the new Sherlock, but I haven't actually watched it yet - I'm struck in that awkward rut where you REALLY WANT TO WATCH but also don't want to ruin a moderately good thing.

So, instead, I've been making a list of 15 Favourite Characters Ever and let me tell you, it was very harrrrd.

Re: Our conversation earlier in the week/before Chrsitmas, I just got linked this quote from Gatiss (No spoilers):

So yeah...

... ahahaha
shut up, Gatiss, just.

ah.

Okay, so, you watched the S2 ep, tell me, on a scale of one to gaytease, how much will it make me rage?

[thornyrose42]

I really don't know.

Its the sort of thing where, it is perfectly possible to take everything at face value and really appreciate it as queer text of a sort. But on the other hand, when taken in the context of things like this quote... could just be taken as more gay tease.

[laeria]

also, what on earth is 'a certain age' in this context? 13 and naive? 50 and repressed? what?

[thornyrose42]

I honestly couldn't tell you.

To be fair to Gatiss he does also say half way through something like: 'And long may it continue'.
