uploaded four new icons. for me that's like an orgy. i can't usually stand to lose more than one at a time.
i thought the holmes novels just weren't very slash from a study in scarlet, the sign of four, and the adventures of sherlock holmes. but then i read his death and his return...
oh my god. i read online somewhere last week that in the early stories, he insults watson three times for each endearment or compliment (something like that, numbers possibly a little fucked up), and that after The Return, it's like seven or eight endearments per insult. i can well believe it. not to mention (i admit to some bias here) i half expected watson to grab him and embrace him and sob something in his shoulder in the first story back. that part was my slash-goggles, but the high-running emotional tension was certainly not my imagination.
::sigh::
keyword: 'love.' heh.
