ahahaha, you cannot escape Sherlock! (says me who's never written a proper Sherlock fic)

is this how Sherlock feels around her, no it mustn’t be because she would never be so cruel and dismissive and… oh.

I like how Molly keeps compairing herself to Sherlock throughout the fic. Seems like her. And how Jim's making her feel imperfect and not affectionate enough XD

someone looming over her, larger than life, even giantesque. I love this turn of phrase.

. Even her mother frowns when Molly gives any answer that’s not completely positive, and brings up her life choices (science, research, working in a mortuary with dead people, for goodness sakes) as reasons why Molly’s life isn’t perfect.

I dunno, this is sad but very true.

As if he’d been created just for that purpose.

<333 love the foreshadowing

And yes his every move has been calculated.

Jim’s cheeks colour at that. Jimmeh can even blush on purpose. Jimmeh wins BAFTA.

WRITE ONE!!!! :p

Jim's a little dim, compared to Molly, and Molly more sees herself as she relates to Sherlock in him than herself as a Sherlock. In fact, she's rather proud of how patient she's being.

...XD

OF COURSE Jim can blush on command! And cry and hiccough and have an asthma attack... :p

Yay! I wanted to read a fic with Molly.

...Even if it's all BLATANT lies.

But it was interesting reading this moment from her perspective. Especially that part when she was thinking about her future with Jim which was a combination of "aww" and "augh, no!" Like you said earlier, I hope her character gets more development in the show. :)

There is nothing here that isn't a lie. Nothing. :p

That's the one thing I'm worried about when 3x01 airs. I'm sure they're going to deal with Sherlock's "death" and John's reaction to him being alive and everything with skill and class. But I'm less confident that they'll deal with Molly and her role with as much care.

But I could be wrong! XD

Oh dear ): This fic broke my heart. Poor, poor, dear, darling Molly (you know, strangely, she is /Euphy/ to me in the sense that if you don't like her, I'll frown at you ... XD Well, not really but still

[elarielf]

As much as I rag on Sherlock it has moments that are completely flawless and overall it's brilliant. (Which is probably why I rag on it - I generally ignore the problems with shows like Supernatural because it's basically crap that I enjoy(ed) because it's pretty crap. :p)

Molly is Shirley to me - if you don't like her, I think you either don't like women or you don't like yourself. She's the closest thing the show has to "normal", oddly enough. Whereas Euphy and Mrs. Hudson are... ideals. :p

But yes. Much internet frownings.

Even my happy, adorable Jim is a creeper! XD He's such a little twerp. I'm still intimidated by him, more so than Sherlock even, in terms of writing (at least Sherlock is upfront).

Molly will eventually get her happy ending! Or at least some character development. I hope. :p
