Bittersweet SurrenderI always thought that you were tough,
I couldn't see you'd had enough.
No more "just friends", that chapter's through;
I want more, need more, you do too.

You raised me up and I let you down,
Thought I never noticed when you were around
But I do, I do, so why can't you see
That I just need you to stay with me?

There's so many paths to take out there,
Want to walk them together, each one to share.
I wasn't aware, but I can't ignore
These feelings I just can't keep hiding anymore.

Come help me through this world of pain,
Come help me see the light again.
I can't go on without you now,
Need you to pull me through somehow.

We can'
THE REICHENBACH FALLThe
Heavy 'thump' of a body colliding with hard concrete,
Earth-shattering in its

Resonance, echoing with finality. Nothing
Exists but the
Immobile
Corpse and
His best friend, unable to do anything
Except stare, heartbroken, as the paramedics take the former away. The
Nauseating image is
Burned into the survivor's retinas. He closes his eyes to block it out, but it only
Acts as a
Cinematographer's screen, playing out the
Hellish scene of his

Friend's fall over
And over again. He visits the modest grave
Later, begging the deceased for one
Last miracle; "... Sherlock... Don't be... dead."

Was the original sherlock gay? Because that would be one heck of a liberal modernization if he was not.

In the original stories, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle left the respected Mr. Holmes completely asexual; having no interest in either gender, though he did appreciate them at times. It would have been a scandal to make any of the characters openly homosexual, as same-sex relationships to any degree of formality (marriage) or intimacy were illegal. He was depicted as a moody, though much more jovial character than our 21st century Sherlock, and did seem to have a peculiar fondness for his flatmate and colleague, Dr. Watson (who later married Mary Morstan). How that level of friendship is interpreted is up to the reader.

Snobbish-sounding history lesson over; in short, no, the original Sherlock was not gay (though many fangirls/boys alike may write otherwise) and our Sherlock has neither confirmed nor denied anything of the sort other than this conversation from "Study In Pink":

"Dr John Watson: You don't have a girlfriend then?
Sherlock Holmes: Girlfriend? No, not really my area.
Dr John Watson: Alright... Do you have a boyfriend? Which is fine, by the way.
Sherlock Holmes: I know it's fine.
Dr John Watson: So you got a boyfriend?
Sherlock Holmes: No.
Dr John Watson: Right. Okay. You're unattached. Like me. Fine. Good.
Sherlock Holmes: John, erm... I think you should know that I consider myself married to my work, and while I'm flattered by your interest, I'm really not looking for any...
Dr John Watson: No. I'm... not asking. No. I'm just saying, it's all fine.
Sherlock Holmes: Good. Thank you."

Barely-hidden subtext states "GAY" in big, bold, Sharpie permanent marker letters.

That's pretty cool history there. Pretty interesting thanks for taking some time to type that all out.

*snorts* yes, and every time John claims he's not gay, i giggle more and roll my eyes. Like that matters when it comes to Sherlock? :D
