olivia, 19, human crayon. i like art, ladies, and moving screens. i also like feelings. all i really want in life is to make out with cartoons.
no, seriously. they turned the old biddy landlady into a gorgeous trans woman with romantic troubles, who sherlock respects as an intellectually competent person long before we even meet her, i just. i cannot process how much i love this show, it is such a comforting place to be for 45 minutes a week.

Suraj Sharma as an NYU undergrad studying bio-medical engineering who inadvertently ends up helping Watson and Holmes on a case and constantly shows up on their doorstep hereafter because he has FINALLY met two adults who are as intelligent as him — and he may have a slight crush on Watson.
I JUST FEEL LIKE IT’S IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW SHE PUT ON THE EXACT OUTFIT HE PICKED OUT.
#can i mention how cool it is to have a variation of sherlock holmes where he says stuff like this #because it’s important #and this episode is my favourite so far because it’s surprisingly accurate #and it was just great to hear him say this #because sherlock holmes is of course intelligent and a modern sherlock would know this #and even though this holmes does have that social crass and indelicacy he’s softer in some ways to the others #which is what makes him different and a new take and interesting to watch #he’s a rare fictional example of a character who is pragmatic and driven and a bit socially blunt but also has a firm moral intelligence too #just because a character can be blunt and rude and not understand that they’ve just insulted someone doesn’t have to mean #that they don’t understand right from wrong (via teacupsandcyanide)
