Alrighty, Character Analysis Time. Shoutout To @affectionatecorpse For Making Me Realize I Can Just Rant

LMAO moriarty is at fangirl level obsession

How did forget about this!

On the tree in front of the Natural History Museum, Sherlock listens to Offenbach's 'Barcarolle' (from 'The Tales of Hoffmann') in his head. Important note that this piece is mentioned in the Canon in The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone!

Extra fun note here that Moriarty then sings it to Sherlock on Tower Bridge! Of course, I have many questions, but it's certainly a neat touch.

oh my god. this gets even better if you put in the idea that sherlock and watson know about this, because that means that they'd have to distinguish which moriarty is the bad one.

like, for example, if our moriarty impersonated a different one of himself. like, would sherlock and watson be able to tell? i mean, he has a pretty distinct personality, but in the scene where watson is explaining moriarty to juliet, he seems to be good at acting as innocent. i'd like to imagine he frequently tries to impersonate other versions of himself and just like, fails horribly.

imagine sherlock being like "yeah ok sworn destroyer of london's garden gnomes. we know it's you" and moriarty being so pissed every time

How often do you think Moriarty gets sent off for repairs? Like- plastic is definitely WAY more durable than like. Ceramic. But it's definitely still breakable. I mean, he lost a piece of his head in the film. How long has he been fighting Sherlock? Has he received any minor damage before?

I still very much think this was his closest brush with death, but I definitely wouldn't be surprised if he'd damaged an arm or a leg in their scuffles before. Especially since broken ceramic can very easily pierce plastic.

So do the folks at Moriarty's Pies just sit there like- "Oh for crying out loud what happened to the statue this time???" cause they all got to work in the morning and just found Moriarty randomly missing an arm?? Without context??? And then the SECOND he gets back from repairs, since plastic is easy to mend, do they have to send him off to get fixed again in the next 24 hours because he's a little menace who can't sit still to save his life? Because that's hilarious.

Better question, imagine if there was more than one van. Wouldn't that mean more Moriarty's? Would they all have the same personality or no? I wouldn't think so. Watson does state that OUR Moriarty was made... wrong. Sometimes making ornaments goes wrong, and we get evil ornaments as a result. Plus, Moriarty's actual personality itself outside of the murder does seem very different from the character he represents. Moriarty the character appears to be very innocent and sweet, while Moriarty the statue is... well, the complete opposite.

So would each one have a different personality? If ornaments weren't tethered to the personality of whoever they represent? Would there just be like 50 Moriarty's and all of them are chill except this ONE?

"Oh yeah that's number 43. He's a bit of a douche, we kinda just leave him out of things. It gets awkward when he's around, he never stops talking about murder :/"

Would that also mean they have different disorders? Or would all of them be extremely obviously ADHD and/or bipolar in varying levels?

Even better question. Would that mean they'd also have different sexualities- would there be like- one token straight Moriarty who everyone refers to as Mike to avoid confusion-- I'm getting carried away. I don't actually think there would be more than one considering we see the van in the background several times, but he's never on top because. Y'know. The pretending to be dead thing. If that wasn't the only van in the city, there's bound to be a different statue in at least one background shot.

Still absolutely hilarious to think about though.

”Awh! Aren’t you so cute!” *leaves comically large lipstick mark on his forehead* “you are just the cutest!”

oh

drawing this in my style lmao

also the boiled one being there for no reason makes me giggle

you know what?,FUCK OFF! *Gacha club your sherlock and Moriarty*

HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY SHERLOCK (i've failed you)

yes

The envy of the woods. 

To reiterate:

Trump's transphobic Executive Orders regarding healthcare and Federal documents are currently unenforceable and are not current actionable policy of the Federal government.

Do not despair.

Do not panic.

And most importantly: do not comply in advance.

Staying alive is a radical act as a trans person in Trump's America.

uglydolls wip, should i finish it? idk. this is just a sketch, the black lines aren't lineart.

hey!!! ended up losing some motivation, but i really like this au!

I'm throwing in some humanized SG lore because I can't sleep..

Moriarty: 37

a sugar daddy??? The owner of a large chain of bakery factories with very controversial methods for eliminating competitors.

He has a weakness for sweets. An inflated self-image, and a very fiery temperament.

Although he constantly pretends to be an innocent bun (and he manages to pull it off). Also he wears kitty socks, because why not

Sherlock: 40

He works as a consulting detective for the police. In his free time, he plays the violin in a London orchestra (Moriarty is a frequent visitor at his concerts). He prefers to work alone because he thinks other people will only slow down the investigation (at this point, he hasn’t met Watson yet).

My idea is that in this AU, Moriarty would be the owner of a pie factory chain, while in his spare time, he engages in mafia dealings or something like that. He eliminates competitors and sets up other companies. One day, after kidnapping one of his former business partners, he makes a mistake and allows the police to catch his trail. Sherlock gets involved in the investigation, trying to find evidence of Moriarty's wrongdoing and illegal business practices. Anyway, the gist is that these two meet and try to outmaneuver each other in the “game”. Moriarty uses charm, manipulation, and money (why not again?), while Sherlock relies on cold-bloodedness, and intellect.

And BONUS! Moriarty trying to rizz up Sherlock (he’s now traumatized)

draw moriarty a bit more chubby looking

OFC! i've been trying to draw him close to canon but struggling with the anatomy. here!
