Summary: FIX IT FIC! Set after the end of the roof scene in the Reichenbach Fall.

( It's plain for anyone to see that Jim Moriarty is very, very dead. Anyone but Sebastian, he's an excellent gambler and he knows a bluff when he sees one. )

YES! THIS IS STILL THE BEST THING EVER! <3

♥ ♥ I'm still really happy that you like it.

This is really the only explanation I will accept for how the episode ended. Jim being all "Oh the cleverness of me! Look at me with my Hollywood tricks, oh ho ho, I'm so smart I scare myself"

And Seb being like "Yes, you're very smart, not shut up, you're not seven"

Yes! Totally canon. Done and done. :D

Seriously the second I was done sniveling in the after math of the episode I was like

O.O I WILL FIX IT! I WILL FIX ALL THE THINGS! STEP BACK BOYS, I GOT THIS!

also this is like.. the shortest thing I've ever written... what is that even about? I never write things this short.

Short and brilliant. While I do like the fact that Molly (finally) got her moment, I still stand by how awesome Seb-Jim-Molly would be. (Insert slashes however you like.) Love your Seb and Jim, btw.

Thank you so much!

I know I wouldn't say no to Seb/Jim/Molly, but hey, I seem to ship almost everybody with almost everybody else in Sherlock, so I ain't even mad. I like to think that at the very least, the three of them are all in cahoots.

Aww, it makes me happy to hear that! Because I am awfully fond of Seb and Jim, so I'm glad I did them justice.

Nice to know I'm not the only one with multiple ships. I just, this show... But yeah, in my head there's at least an AU where the three of them are AWESOME together. Seb/Jim/Molly would be, if nothing else, absolutely fascinating.

I love how people are already doing enough Seb for people to get attached. Me included.

mad_teagirl January 18 2012, 00:14:08 UTC

Oh, I've got more ships then a navy over here. And well, not to promote a good friend of mine or anything, but well, a good friend of mine did write a fic that did have the three of them being awesome, called Death and the Maiden

It's true! I was discussing this with a friend of mine, but the fact of the matter is once you start writing Sebastian Moran, you fall in love with him, and then you can't stop writing him, and the next thing you know, he's the only thing you write anymore... I'm not really complaining though, he is such a lovable bastard.

Aaaand I will *not* be surprised if this scene turns out to be true! Well, I will be surprised if Molly was in on it, but Jim still alive and the rest of it? Oh yeah.

I love the dialogue and Seb jabbing him in the ribs. Hee! It makes me wish there had been (or will be) a Seb so we can see all this.

Thanks for sharing! &hearts

♥ ♥ ♥ Thank yoooooooou!!!!!!

I am hoping for Sebastian in the new series too, with trepidation, because part of me is not sure if I can reconcile my head canon Moran with whoever gets cast. But that's just me.

You're welcome! Thank *YOU* for reading it.

This makes me happy!!! I love reading Seb! I can totally see Jim faking it! This made me smile and made my night!!!

mad_teagirl January 23 2012, 12:24:44 UTC

Awwww, thank you! I'm so happy you liked it and that it made you that happy. ♥ ♥ ♥

p.s. your icon is glorious.

I love this! My own headcanon is that something like this happened. There was so much put into that actor Richard Brooke life that I refuse to see Jim not being able to fake his own death. And I've sort-of shipped Molly and Jim ever since the Great Game, but my brain refuses to accept any pairing with Jim unless Seb is somewhat present, so the idea of those three running off to Paris makes me very happy.

The dialogue is priceless. I love Seb being so unimpressed with Jim's cleverness. <3

mad_teagirl August 23 2012, 07:41:32 UTC

Awwww, I flailed a little at this comment.

Really, you're much too kind <3

Jim/Molly is definitely one of my favorite ships to ever sail, but I think it's an accepted fact that Sebastian would need to be somewhere in the equation. A friend of mine has long been bothering me to write the three of them in Paris, I might cave in and do it sometime in the near-ish future.

And well.... I think if you are around Jim's cleverness as much as Seb you start to adopt the "... must be tuesday" type attitude towards his theatrics.
