Every fairytale needs a good, old-fashioned villain.
Today I had a lecture about belief/religion and the lecturer asked what we believed in and some guy shouted “Sherlock Holmes” and then some other kid shouted back “Richard Brook was innocent” and they glared at each other across the room and then the lecturer just carried on with a slightly concerned look on her face.
Sherlock is a perfect gentleman; he always holds the tape for his boyfriend.
Chivalry is not dead.
And if it was?
Sherlock would be first on the scene to figure out how it died.
^^
perfect!!!
THIS
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone.
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling in the sky the message He is Dead,
Put crêpe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever, I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun.
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

I DON’T KNOW WHAT MY FACE LOOKS LIKE RIGHT NOW BUT IT FEELS LIKE PURE BLISS. TATTOO TO END ALL TATTOOS RIGHT HERE.

GET UNDER MY SKIN!
My brain has oozed into a puddle of bliss. Once I’ve pulled myself up off the floor, I must learn Gallifreyan.

This is a little mix/edit I did… that will probably only appeal to Benedict Cumberbatch/Sherlock fans.
Put some headphones on, and get carried away in the beautiful angsty music - and shudder at the sound of Benedict Cumberbatch whispering right into your ear.
