💖: are you in love/ have you ever been in love?

I have been in love before, once upon a time ago haha. I’ve really only been in love once. I thought I was in love a couple times since but it was just infatuation, didn’t last anywhere near as long. 

💄: do you wear makeup? if you do: how do you do it?

Sometimes, typically the rarity I go out or do something cosplay related. I have the same basic routine, inspired by following a tutorial Jenna from Fighting Dreamers Production posted awhile back. 

Hey, no big deal! I love questions, they’re my pride and joy.

Garridebs comes from the story in ACD canon The Adventures of the Three Garridebs, wherein we get three people named Garrideb, trying to get an inheritance, though there is only really one real Garrideb I believe. That’s what you see in tfp with the three guys hanging there. 

But whenever you see one of us, tjlc people, say Garridebs or the Garridebs moment, we’re not talking about the case at all.

In Garridebs we get the crowning Victorian Johnlock Moment. The Garridebs Moment™:

“My friend’s wiry arms were around me and he was leading me to the chair.“You’re not hurt, Watson? For God’s sake say that you’re not hurt!”It was worth a wound -it was worth many wounds- to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay beyond that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain.All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation.”

The whole thing is beautiful, but those bolded part are especially relevant to us yeah? This isn’t the only time we see Watson say he saw Holmes’ great heart (he always pretends it is), but it’s the emotion in this scene by Holmes because Watson could have been injured worse, and the Revelation is what makes it key. Because of how amazing this moment is, and the fact that Steven Moffat has talked about it sooooo many times, it’s everyone’s favorite. Moffat actually did a moment like this with Vastra and Jenny too :> He loves it and we all expect to get it at some point. 

Because the cliffhanger of TLD, John was apparently shot, so we (some of us though not all) believe TFP is John’s nightmare while bleeding out, this is why I believe we get the Garridebs moment “left hanging” literally. And why we can hopefully expect in a fourth episode, for them to have their Garridebs moment and for John have a moment of Revelation about Sherlock’s feelings. Whether he’ll say I love you then or not we don’t know, but hey. The Garridebs Moment.

Rand: How do you stay positive in bad situations?

Oh that’s a tough one!!! Thing is, I kind of don’t.... haha! My anxiety takes every bad situation and amplifies it by about six thousand percent. BUT I find the best thing I can do in those situations is to lie to myself! It sounds weird, but I basically just tell myself it’s okay enough times to make myself believe it! Or at least to make myself more likely to believe it. I don’t do well in crisis.... XD

Khan: Tell me about a person you would do anything to protect.

My immediate reaction here is to say my wife, but tbh I don’t think she needs my protection! Haha! She can totally hold her own, but she is the one person I can say without a doubt I would take a bullet for. 

Horta: What do you do when you feel lonely and isolated?

It takes a lot for me to feel lonely, since I just..... LOVE being alone. I love it so much. Holy shit. But of course everyone gets lonely sometimes, so when that happens I usually go out to a cafe or something to write, or I message someone here, or call a family member. The cafe is my favorite option in those cases ‘cause then I get human interaction without much energy drain or obligation (and I get coffee out of it, haha!)

sex bomb: are you a virgin?

Yes I am

d'fluff: how many pillows do you sleep with?

At least 4 (there used to be more but I’m very picky about pillows so i gave the ones I didn’t like to the rest of my family)

marilyn: who do you look up to?

My 8th grade social studies teacher because she was always so inspiring. she went through a lot when she was younger and she always supported me

damaged: have you ever dyed/bleached your hair?

Thank you :D

Gamecube: I’m gonna say console here because I use my PC only for like Overwatch and a few other things. I’m more interested in exclusives than 4k graphics or whatever.
