OH MY GOD DUDE. THIS IS EVERYTHING I WANTED BUT GREATER AND WITH MORE BANGING YESSSSSS. THAT WAS SO GOOD especially the line about her smart mouth having no words when he's fucking her. THIS IS ALL I WANT FROM ELEMENTARY, LET'S BE HONEST.

But what makes this for me are the details. I can see her with her hair piled up watching every tv in the house and walking around in so much flannel. I feel the pang when Eddie talks about how intellectually he knows that other people have his mom's perfume but it hurts all the same. I WANT TO MARRY THAT ENTIRE INSTAGRAM SECTION AND HAVE IT GIVE BIRTH TO CHILDREN WHO WILL LOOK LIKE GARNER-SLASH-REDMAYNE.

ALSO FUCKING AMANDA YESSSSSSSS. God, my favorite thing about RPF is the casual mention of other people six degrees of Kevin Bacon style and this? WAS PERFECT.

“For the record, I find you attractive as well. You are very tall and very freckled. I am curious as to how freckled. And you have very capable hands.”

Ahhhhhahahaha, I am so glad! Thank you, dude! The second I saw that prompt I was basically obsessed with the image of her padding around that gloomy brownstone with her hair on top of her head muttering to herself hahaha. AND OMG, RIGHT? I feel like I tried to excise my Elementary-please-let-them-fuck-now-please feelings with this, hahahaha. WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, SHUT THEM UP WITH VAGUELY KINKY SEX!

RIGHT?!?!??! Whenever I read an RPF AU (or hell, RPF in general) the best part is when names are just dropped at random, like OH YEAH, TOM HANKS IS HER NEIGHBOR, THAT'S COOL hahaha.

I feel like between the two of us we have unleashed a TERRIBLE monster and I am probably not moving on from this any time soon hahaha.

AND THAT GIF! Is that the video when he talks about his love for Maid Marian??? CLASSICS.

also now I want a Robin Hood AU. THIS WILL NEVER END!

I am really disappointed in the internet for not writing a bunch of Elementary porn. The only reason CBS isn't going there is because it doesn't want to kill its age 65+ core demographic, but that doesn't mean that the interweb should get off on withholding! I AM NOT HERE FOR YOUR G-RATED FRIENDSHIP.

YES! God, he's such a weirdo. I want to be a fly on their wall of the hipster pub he frequents in London where the British hipster actor contingency mocked him relentlessly and tried to get him to admit that he's a furry. And he's like, "DUDE, ALL I'M SAYING IS THAT SHE WAS A GOOD LOOKING CARTOON. I WOULD GO THERE IN 2D FORM."

RIGHT!? Like, they sort of built in the avenue for porn in that show too FROM THE FIRST EPISODE, and come on! After that last episode how has porn not been the answer?! I don't understand that fandom, it disappoints me!

L O L . I would pay cash money to witness such a conversation. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING ATTRACTED TO A CARTOON ANIMAL GIVEN HUMAN ATTRIBUTES, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT AT ALL.

Thank you so much, dude!!!!!
