...when you come home from work, change clothes and then immediately check the forum - before coffee!

Ah, that's the fun of it, isn't it? . He doesn't have to know what I'm thinking, or what persona I'm adopting, when it happens. All he has to do is enjoy and think his own happy thoughts (which I doubt have anything to do with Johnlock) while I'm 'researching' - face angles, lip pressure, hand placement, lololo.

Now this is growing into a really hot prequel to your story, KP. I can't wait to read about your, er, results.

Me either. You go girl!

I'm also very curious. As I am no Johnlocker I will read it and imagine John as a girl.

And this one's for Susi, to think at when she's out tonight:

(hope it works now...)

Thank you so much, Mattlocked, I'll think about it all the time and find lots of reason why he should have dinner with me even if he's not hungry.

Mattlocked · September 21, 2012 4:45 pm

lol
You're welcome.
Well, he is a real romanticist, isn't he.

SusiGo · September 21, 2012 4:46 pm

Oh yes, of course. Dinner on Quavers and coffee over the microscope instead of roses and candlelight.

Mattlocked · September 21, 2012 4:50 pm

Reminds me of my early days with hubby. "Why should I go to the cinema with you when I'm not interested in the film?" lol.....

Um. That might be kind of hard to do, when you read what two guys get up to. Better to skip any Sherlock/John pairing stories, and just go on to what I must imagine must be 1000s of het fics out there that have Sherlock or John paired up with all kinds of people who have female parts.

Go watch Elementary!

Na... I didn't mean it that way.... Actually I don't need any lockings to anyone at all.
In general I'm absolutely fine with his platonic friendship to John - and his marriage to his work.

when...I observe people where I go...
When I observe my teachers...
when...I would like to have a coat like Sherlock
when...I say "Evidemment", yes in french....I don't know in english but I say "God's Sake or God sake's ?"

veecee · September 22, 2012 2:26 am

Do you mean "for God's sake"?

I love the coat, too, and we are not the only ones who do.

Often mispronounced as "for god sakes." I've heard Sherlock say it both ways, which I think is typical.

I love the coat, too, and we are not the only ones who do.

That was a style from 3 or 4 winters ago that the manufacturer (Belstaff) no longer makes. I wonder if they'll bring it back.

I definitely check the forum first thing when I get home!

I also find myself getting frustrated when my friends (who do watch Sherlock) don't have all the good scenes memorized like I do, so when I make a Sherlock joke they don't get it... I feel all alone!

Emy Klevers · September 22, 2012 7:31 am

Yes, for God's Sake ! ( I am sorry !!! )
I don't stop to write : " I may be on the side of the angel [...] I am one of them" on my copybooks in "Lycée".

On a party yesterday evening I realised that I must be hopelessly obsessed.

First, I noticed a few nice looking young men and caught myself all the time staring at the least attractive one, only because I was fascinated by his striped jumper.

Then the band was playing. Their guitarist's name was Lothar. The singer addressed him very often, like "Lothar, it's your turn!" or "Lothar has to change his guitar for the next song." She pronounced it exactly like "low tar". So all I could think of was Sherlock's digusted face in that scene where Mycroft offers him the cigarette and he says "this is low tar". And suddenly, in the middle of the dancefloor, one man took a cigarette out of his pocket and started to smoke. I don't think he was allowed to do that, it's one of these law things ... But maybe he was just another Sherlockian and couldn't help it. I think even I started craving a cigarette after so many mentions of "low tar".

But running to the computer after coming home from the party at 3 in the morning to check the forum is not weird, is it?
