But the romance was there

Watson is such a fun flavour of unreliable narrator. Narrator who just lies, and tells you he's lying, and what he's lying about. Narrator who publishes conversations with his protagonist about the inaccuracy of his writing. Narrator who's been used to prop up conspiracies without his knowledge. Narrator who is semi-regularly lied to by the subject of his stories. Narrator who is, at best, half-assing his government issued NDA.

The one unifying factor of all Sherlock Holmes adaptations is that absolutely no one has read his monograph on cigars and cigar ash

gay people cant be normal they gotta call you a conductor of light

so unreliably narrated bestie

I think the best part abt Howard Holmes is that Holmes is just straight up no thoughts, head ENTIRELY empty. yes he can solve a case but can he actually think? no, not even a little

The thing is, you read the stories written by Dr Watson and you think “this is the most down bad a narrator has ever been” and then you get to the stories written by Sherlock Holmes from his perspective and he’s somehow worse.
