Let me hug you back.
And maybe it's even time for a group hug again...?

Schmiezi, I certainly won't force myself to post in the dabte thread. And I haven't posted a lot there lately anyway, so I guess I'll only do so in the future when I really feel like it. It's a bit like with the Mary thread. There are times when I'm sick and tired of even thinking about her, and then there are times when I can't hold myself back and just need to get it out (whatever 'it' might be).
I think it's important to remember that this is supposed to be fun. All of it. The show, the forum, the discussions, Johnlock... so I'll post when I'm in the right mood. Doesn't mean I don't follow the threads. I do. Maybe that's part of the problem.

Anyway, can I just say that it's nice to have a place here on the forum where we can talk about our doubts and worries concerning the show (and Johnlock) as well? Thank you all for that.

I just found this very long, very reasonable and very thorough post that sums up why Sherlock was generally written up as Johnlock romance. Worth reading:

Nakahara, what a great post. Not through with it completely, but I love it.

My first impulse was to ask you to re-post it at the debate but it probably won't re-start a healthy discussion anyway, right? :-(

nakahara · August 3, 2016 8:10 am

Probably not.
That´s why I posted it here, so we can enjoy it in peaceful atmosphere.

Schmiezi · August 3, 2016 8:13 am

Sad but true!

nakahara · August 3, 2016 8:37 am

And now something lighthearted, for a change...

Hi everyone,
I'm fine.
Well, to be more precise, I'm as fine as I was a week or two weeks or two months ago. Because I still don't really pay that much attention to interviews or articles trying to explain the show to me. It's been like that from the very beginning for me, and it will continue to be like that: What I see in the show is the crucial factor. So I didn't really jump up and down out of joy when Benedict said that "love conquers all", and equally I didn't get depressed when I read that infamous Mofftiss-Johnlock-article. They've said so many things over the years, then again they didn't really say much at all (and I really think they should stop doing SDCC if they're only there to talk about previous episodes, but that's probably just me).
I know I haven't been all that thrilled about the show lately, S3 and TAB changed things a bit for me. But then yesterday there was a rerun of TRF on tv and I just sat down and watched it (can't watch it often enough, right?) and yes, it's still there: the magic that is Sherlock and John in BBC Sherlock. I still see it. And someone has put it there. And nobody can convince me otherwise.
So let them talk. I'm reading it and I'm listening. But at the end of the day the show speaks for itself and I'm pretty relaxed when it comes to what might be in store for us in S4. (And I admit that I'm not really having high hopes for Johnlock becoming more explicit than it has been so far, but that has nothing to do with what Mofftiss said about it recently.)

Wow! You found the right words.

I'm sure everyone has read it already, but I just discovered the meta document called "In Gatiss we trust, operation Johnlock is go" I wonder if it's true, I kind of wish it were, in a part of my mind. But even if it's not, it's cool that someone wrote that, so we can still enjoy the ship still.

Do you have a link to share? That sounds promising. :-)

(((group hug)))
