The Science of Deduction

skippythedemon asked: Sir, I may have a lead for you? At my college graduation just this month, I was waiting outside the alumni center and just happened to look down at the walkway - which is made up of cobblestones with the names of donators stamped onto them. Right between my feet was a stone that said "Moriarty". Do you think this could be relevant at all?

I will look into this. It could be relevant- it could hold no relevance at all. 

Anonymous asked: I understand that this will not be a question, possibly rather a command in place of a statement. But Mr. Holmes, I take pleasure in knowing that you and Doctor Watson have a platonic relationship. Strictly friends. I'm not sure why a majority of everyone must assume you must be "lovers" or should be. And so, my command for you is, please, never change that. - KN

Anonymous asked: Methinks the good doctor doth protest too much... I don't think his vehement defense is quite honest. Any other reasons?

Married to my work. Dating isn’t really my area.

Not to mention the fact that John thinks I’m dead.

marchingthroughthetardis asked: I didn't know you even watched movies! Hocus Pocus?! What else have you seen?

I don’t see why what movies I’ve seen is relevant. 

Anonymous asked: You should date John. Do you agree?

There are many reasons that that could not work. I will present you with one: John has, many times, very vocally defended his heterosexuality. 

fjordfish asked: Are you the virgin that lit the black-flame candle?

I have not summoned three witches- wrong virgin. I believe you are looking for Max Dennison.

And I’ll always believe in you, John Watson. I’ll come home the moment that it is safe for you. 

Anonymous asked: You talk just like him. You have to be him. I scrolled down a little and you even think that the solar system is foolish, just like he used to. Mrs. Hudson is gone, Sherlock. Disappeared. I hate saying this, but I'm scared. -JW

The John that your Sherlock knew was strong. The strongest person that he knew. And that Sherlock knows that that John will continue to be strong until he could find a way to come home to him. But, until then, the Sherlock you know has to keep you safe. 

Anonymous asked: It says right there Sherlock Holmes. The title of your blog is The Science of Deduction. God, please, Sherlock, let this be you. -JW

You have the wrong Sherlock Holmes. I am sorry, John. 

You should ignore this blog. For your safety.

brynncognito asked: Have you found Moran yet?

I’ve caught signs of his trail here and there- but to answer your question simply, unfortunately not.
