Hey, we must be sisters in spirit! And YAY!!! to everything you said in this rewatch! I'm a sociopath, too, quite obviously, because I can understand the cabbie thing as well. I've been known all my life for saying, "I am surrounded by idiots!" Now that I'm older I've learned to say it only in my head. But I can totally understand where Sherlock comes from - not that I'm anywhere near his level, I hasten to add - but it must be so exhausting if you have to explain everything 24/7 because no one is able to follow your train of thoughts. I definitely think that he was lonely and therfore looking for a flatmate and not at all sure how that would pan out. But amazingly it did!
I love the undercurrent of eroticism that runs through the whole show - hey, even London is sexy! - and its total ambiguity. And no, we will never know what goes on in Sherlock's heart, we're only given tiny glimpses and that is as it should be for this larger than life character.
Love this recap and hope you'll put it back on AO3 and more to come!
We share many similar thoughts in regard to the Mycroft-Sherlock relationship which I have worked into my very first Sherlock-fic which is just being betaed.
