BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Marry, Kiss, Avoid etc

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** July 6, 2012 12:21 am

You've probably seen this game before but I've adapted it slightly.

So, which Sherlock character would you:

1. Marry
2. Kiss
3. Avoid
4. Live With (as friends)
5. Punch

You can only pick one character for each answer. You can give reasons if you want to.

So...this is pretty hard already but I'm gonna go with:

1. Marry...John - he's just a nice friendly guy and I think you could rely on him to be a good husband when he's not running off with Sherlock, although that really wouldn't bother me
2. Kiss...Lestrade - he's a sweetie
3. Avoid...Jim - he's insane
4. Live With...Sherlock - although we'd still need John to look after us both
5. Punch...Kitty Riley - she repels me

1. I don't know if I'd want to commit to any of these people. The Random Sexy Extra? Ha ha.
2. Kiss John.
3. Avoid the Gollum.
4. Live with Sherlock, for sure.
5. Punch Anderson

1. Marry - Lestrade. I always thought he must be a great husband.
2. Kiss - Jim, I think he needs it
3. Avoid - Sally, I don't think I would like her around.
4. Live with - Sherlock, of course. It must be hellish, but so much fun
5. Punch - Anderson, for sure.

1.) Marry- Mycroft. He has that George Sanders, David Niven, Charles Boyer upscale sophisticated thing I like in a guy

2.) Kiss- Watson. He is so adorable and sweet.

3.) Avoid- Moriarty. He is hazardous to your health

4.) Live with- Irene. She is definite girlfriend material.

5.) Punch- Tie between Donovan and the Police Superintendent

**Posted by The Skull** July 6, 2012 1:50 pm

Dunno about the first two. As for the rest....
3. Avoid Anderson. (Supposedly stupidity isn't contagious, but you never know..)
4. Live with Sherlock. (Keeps life interesting!)
5. Punch Moriarty. (He annoys me. A lot.)

Nobody wants to kiss Sherlock? I'm baffled. On the other hand a kiss can be a one-off, whereas living … Let me see.

1. Marry - John, I guess, although I'd have to share him with Sherlock.
2. Kiss - Lestrade, to make him happy when he has this sad puppy dog look.
3. Avoid - Jim, no question. Could be TOO dangerous.
4. Live - I think I already answered this one. It would never be boring. Being married to John we three could live happily ever after.
5. Punch - Donovan. She really gets on my nerves with this freak thing. Apart from being the first to suspect him.

1. I can't exactly do this one because there all a bit out of my league!
2. Corporal Lyons- He's cute!
3. Jim - for obvious reasons
4. Molly - She'd make a nice big sister!
5. Sebastian Wilkes - I HATE that man

1-Marry: John, he is loyal and adorable.
2-Kiss: Sherlock. For obvious reasons.
3-Avoid: Sally, I can't stand her kind.
4-Live: Irene, I'm sure it would be interesting and she has a beautiful house.
5-Punch: Anyone mean to Sherlock. It's a lot of people.

1. Marry: Sherlock... YES, I've thought about that! If he would want to marry me freely, that would mean certain things. I know it will be hard, but I know he can change *-*.
2. Kiss: Actually I'm gonna go with Corporal Lyons, too! I wouldn't have thought of him on my own, but he really is just so handsome.
3. Avoid: Irene Adler? Wouldn't want her around my husband.
4. Live with: Molly, she's so nice and loyal and sympathetic! She'd be a great friend.
5. Punch: Donovan. Definitely. That bitch.

Sorry John! I don't think it will work out, though, me and Sherlock and you... but you and your wife and me and Sherlock will have doubles dates aaaall the time! Ok?

So, which Sherlock character would you:

1. Marry---How about Mycroft? I just like him, but I'd marry him anyway.

2. Kiss----I'd kiss Sherlock if I had the chance...like a giddy schoolgirl.

3. Avoid-----Moriarty of course.

4. Live With (as friends)---Mrs. Hudson.

5. Punch---Donovan, no contest. I just don't like her.

which Sherlock character would you:

1. Marry----Sherlock I think he could cope with me.

2. Kiss------Mrs Hudson in a platonic way, she deserves it and hugs.

3. Avoid-----Donovan because she'll cause trouble again.

4. Live With (as friends)---John.

5. Punch--The Chief Superintendent.

1. Marry - Sherlock (I wouldn't mind being left alone for days on end)
2. Kiss - Well, if I'm marrying Sherlock, I'm gonna be kissing him too
3. Avoid - Kitty
4. Live With (as friends) - Molly
5. Punch - Donovan

Interesting thread
1. Marry: Sherlock. I need someone who gives me a lotttt of space and I think Sherlock would be perfect for me that ways.
2. Kiss: Before marrying Sherlock, I would like to kiss Moriarty once for sure .
3. Avoid: Irene Adler. With her being 'sherlocked', my marriage would be in constant trouble
4. Live with: John Watson. He would be the best one to consult to make my marriage stronger.
5. Donovan.

P.S: Whenever I come to this forum, I always find something new to learn. I had no idea about Corporal Lyons but then I googled and found him n was like, "oh, it's him!!". just never bothered to remember his name.

I'm gonna pretend I'm the same age as these characters.

1. Marry: Greg Lestrade. He's sweet, handsome, and a really great guy. Plus he's probably lonely.
2. Kiss: Sherlock. On the cheek, if that's allowed.
3. Avoid: Jimmy. I don't want to die slowly.
4. Live With (as friends): Molly! :D
5. Punch: Sebastian Wilkes.

Marry: Sherlock. It would be rude of me not to lol.
Kiss: John. But just a peck as a friend need to stay faithful to Sherlock lol.
Avoid: Anderson. Can only handle so much stupid in one room.
Live with (as friends): Mycroft. Keep on his good side and find out about Sherlock lol.
Punch: Sally Donovan. The list of reasons is endless.

1. Marry - Hm, not sure, actually. John or Greg?
2. Kiss - Sherlock, cause a kiss I can see, but being with him for an extended period of time would drive me crazy.
3. Avoid - Moriarty. No two ways about it.
4. Live With (as friends) - Molly. She's awesome, and I think she'd make a great roommate. I'd love hearing all her gory pathology stories when she gets home from work.
5. Punch - Mycroft, cause he's so infuriatingly Holmesian. There have been instances where I've wanted to punch Sherlock too. ("I always hear Punch me in the face when you're speaking but it's usually subtext.")

1. Marry - Sherlock! We´d shout at crap telly, do nasty forensic experiments in the kitchen, never invite the Watsons for dinner and I´d always win at Cluedo and Trivial Pursuit ^^.
2. Kiss - Corporal Lyons, he´s cute. Or Irene Adler, out of interest.
3. Avoid - Moriarty. He´s toooo changeable.. and I don´t want to be made into shoes. And his ringtone is annoying.
4. Live with (as friends) - Lestrade. I always found sharing flats with guys less complicated than with girls, and I guess he´d be great to have a beer with and do no talking after work.
5. Punch - Mycroft. I don´t know, he just calls for it.

**Posted by rebeccaholmes** April 8, 2014 6:44 pm

1. Marry - Sherlock, need I say more?
2. Kiss - Greg, because he's sure one cute DI.
3. Avoid - Moriarty, can I really trust someone who loves himself so much?
4. Live With (as friends) - Molly, she's just adorable and sweet.
5. Punch - Mycroft, once again, need I say more? Haha!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** April 8, 2014 7:53 pm

1. Marry - Sherlock. Obviously
2. Kiss - Irene Adler. Okay, yes I have a crush on her. sorry!
3. Avoid - Moriarty...
4. Live With (as friends) - John, Molly or Mary
