the way arthur doesn't push as much as he just shoulder bumps merlin, the way merlin starts running before arthur even makes a move, the way arthur only runs about three steps before stopping. intricate rituals etc etc.
arthur doesn’t notice merlin’s magic bc of the gay thing. arthur realizes he’s having Thoughts about merlin and decides the best course of action is to Repress and Ignore. the color of merlin’s eyes? why would arthur stare at merlin’s eyes? he’s not getting lost in them. arthur hasn’t ever looked at merlin, actually.
we fuckin hate Uther in this house but those times he'd look at Merlin and be like "wtf is wrong with Arthur rn??" were so funny

But since I started watching Granada Holmes I have to take that back given that so often I can't follow what's going on because I'm just mesmerized by the way Jeremy Brett moves and can't pay attention to anything else. I'm not listening to what this witness is saying, I'm looking at Jeremy's micro facial expressions in reaction to it. I didn't notice the rest of the room, I was looking at the way Jeremy moves his hands and swirls around and touches the furniture and walks and tilts his head and crawls on the floor and sniffs cigarette butts and
I was sketching bertie wooster today, and I suddenly remembered that my teenage self had drawn bertie wooster too
and that my teenage self had even submitted that drawing to a LIVEJOURNAL COMMUNITY called indeedsir (back in the days when livejournal communities still existed).
so i dug through my old computer files to find the old fanart and
yeah. 10 years. wow. it went by just like that.
the sages were right. the years really do start coming and they don't stop coming.
There's something weirdly unsettling about reading Jeeves and Wooster while living in Worcester. Like Bertie went to a school in Malvern??? Aunt Dahlia is kicking about in Upton Snodsbury?? 6 miles away???? Crazy
sherlock being absolutely excellent at pretending to be other people to get information but also completely useless at any attempts to be geniune or offer any form of condolences will never not send me
