Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
I've always wondered about the phrase 'the elephant in the room', what does it mean exactly.
I have always thought it applied to some big subject that everyone avoided talking about...
But is that the actual explanation? I haven't investigated it; oh the shame!
But if that's right... could all the elephants be a hint to that... and could the 'elephant' in the room that no one is addressing be Johnlock?

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
What the elephant represents is something that is very important and obvious but that everyone is ignoring. Think about it, imagine there's an elephant in your living room but everyone is walking and talking around it like it's not there.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Will we see something similar in S4?

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
There's the most heartbreaking two years post fall AU (no Mary) roleplay happening on tumblr right now... though I was really mean to the Sherlock in it and now he's OD'd and I feel bad...
Check it out.
It's across lots of accounts.

No, I've been messaging the players though... as an extra! (Every roleplay needs the odd extra.,.)

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
They look beautiful! And very yummy! I'm looking for ideas to decorate my Birthday cake in a couple of weeks... that's certainly an idea! (unless I go for pink and white, which is how people know me)

Eventually everyone will support Johnlock. Independent OSAJ Affiliate
... but there may be some new players now. It’s okay. The East Wind takes us all in the end.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
They taste good too!
I didn't mean to hijack the thread with the cupcakes, sorry
And now for something more on topic. Well, it's crack, but never mind.
John: What's going on?
Sherlock: The stage is set. The curtain rises. My cheekbones are on point, my buttcheeks are clenched, we're ready to begin. We all have a past, actually now that i think about it, that is the quintessential dilemma of humanity. we all have ghosts, memories that haunt us. We have done things we can't let go, we have loved and lost, done weird buttstuff in dark alleys, lost our childhood pets; those are the shadows that define now every sunny day. Every great cause has martyrs, every war has suicide missions. And make no mistake, this is war, we're at war with ourselves and the authorities and the weird screaming woman over there. your moustache is at war with the illustrator, I'm at war with my love for you. Nobody made me. I made me. Oh Watson.
Inception siren: DOOT DOOT
John:
John:
John: Nevermind just... wear the fucking hat.
