Apparently, I'm Watson too. But it was rather easy to distinguish which answer would lead to which character... especially the ones for Moriarty^^ I tried to answer honestly, though.

And funnily enough, the text at the end about Watson actually described me quite well

Enjoyed this very much. It says that I'm Irene Adler.

This isn't about looks or sex appeal. Whatever gifts you were born with, you will make the most of, to get what you want out of life. If that's charm, use that. If it's brains, use that. If it's a quick wit, use that too, and why not? You're the person that everyone thinks they can see right through, that they can manipulate for their own ends.
They can't, and if they try, you'll whip them until they scream for mercy. Or more.

Maybe that fits. Maybe not.

I got Watson, many Watsons here I see

Shock of all shocks, I got Holmes. Not really sure how that happened.

Another Holmes here...

Holmes means Sherlock obviously. Congrats!
I'm feeling special because so few people got Irene and I like her a lot.

Mycroft, guess I'm more of an iceman than a virgin. ;)

I got Holmes which I was actually quite surprised about because I was answering honestly and I know I didn't pick some of the more obvious Sherlock answers. I think it was probably the mental checklists and experiments that swung it.

I was really surprised when I got Holmes. How did that happen exactly?

**Posted by sj4iy** July 25, 2013 6:08 pm

My 4-year old daughter, picking totally at random (because she can't actually read), ended up with Mycroft.

My friend got Moriarty. I'm worried.

Another Sherlock Holmes
Had to pretend my mobile works here cause if it did I would charge it every night. Mental checklist before my eyes open is me..

I got John!

Another Holmes, rather unexpectedly, slightly puzzled

Same for me... ;)

I got Mrs Hudson My first time and Sherlock my second time because my answers to the questions changed depending on my mood when taking the quiz.

Same here. I don't really appreciate this kind of quiz.

Watson for me!

Some people are born leaders, others are born foot-soldiers: you are neither. You are a great second-in-command.

That's not to say you're deficient in any way, it's just you are at your best when you are enabling someone to achieve their vision. This is partly due to your intense loyalty, and partly due to your need to take part in something you can truly believe in.

We could all use as good a friend as you.

That's partly true as I'm certainly not a leader, but I'm more like Sherlock when it comes to social skills (or lack of more like! lol) and sarcasm. I'm really not sociable like John. I'm more the lonely and sarcastic type. BIt like Mycroft actually, when I think of it. Most of all because I pretend I don't really care about others when I actually do. Oh well.

These quizzes are just for fun. But I got Watson, which for me is quite accurate. I'm loyal, am pretty good at reading social ques, can take initiative when I need to, but am happiest implementing the creative ideas of people like my boss.
