potentiality_26You know how fabulous I am? I just saw S3 of Sherlock. Just yesterday. For the first time. I only have a couple of the things to say that are spoiler-y and if you want to see it and you still haven't you're even more fabulous than I am, so-
I'm less stoked after seeing it than I have been after past seasons. There are way more loose ends to be tied up than usual, and frankly, when you wait a zillion years for Netflix to send you something, three episodes aren't really very satisfying, even if they're great. These three were entertaining, but... meh.
Despite being a pretty die hard Holmes/Watson shipper in pretty much any variation on the Sherlock Holmes canon, I mainly only came away wanting Greg/Mycroft fic. Literally all I got from the goldfish conversation was Greg/Mycroft and I don't even know why. Also, I really liked Mary. Really a lot. She has this reformed badass, you're wonderful and I suck thing going on with John that I've always had a soft spot for, but that I rarely see with a woman towards a man rather than the other way around. So I like John/Mary here.
That said, I feel like Mary/Molly and John/Sherlock could have potential. All the times they were saying John ended up with an ex-assassin because that's what he likes (i.e. the same thing that made him want to follow Sherlock around crime scenes made him fall in love with her), they also did something similar with Molly. I'm just saying, everyone could be happy. And gay.
