But how should I sign it?

Jim

He’ll know that’s me, right?
But what if he knows another Jim?
Oh, god. What if he thinks it’s that idiot serial killer Stabby Jim from Manor Park? I hate that guy. Why does he have to be named Jim? Why haven’t I killed him yet?
Maybe if I…

Jim (from the pool)

No. Just—I can’t. No.

Jim M.

That’s better.
Unless Sherlock thinks it’s my brother. Does Sherlock know I have a brother? He might know I have a brother. Why does my brother have to be named Jim? Why does everyone have to be named Jim? Why haven’t I killed everyone yet?
Okay, okay. Calm down. You’re overthinking this. Just keep it simple.

JM

He’ll know who I am. Of course he’ll know who I am. Unless he thinks John’s having trouble telling his Ws from his Ms again. Ha ha ha. I love how stupid ordinary people are.
Initials. Short and to the point. That’s what Sherlock would do.
Crap.
That’s exactly what Sherlock would do. That’s what he always does—“SH”.
What if he thinks I’m copying him?
Dammit, dammit, dammit.

Jim Moriarty

Fine.
I’ll just put my whole name.
…
Seems kind of impersonal, though.

Jim Moriarty x

There.
Perfect.
Now should that have a full stop at the end, or…?

Jim Moriarty x.
> SEND MESSAGE

Oh god, oh god, oh god.
Why did I do that?
I shouldn’t have added a full stop.
Now he’s looking at the full stop, and he’s judging me.





Never full stop after the x Jim! You’re the world’s only consulting criminal…how could you not know that?

#omg I just realised #that’s what Mycroft would have told Moriarty #when he was interrogating him #and when Moriarty asked for information about Sherlock #Mycroft would have said something like #’the first thing you need to know about Sherlock is he loves puzzles #give him a puzzle and watch him dance’.

Filed under Nooooo! Just no. It is horrible. It is horrible to see calculating Mycroft with his cold exterior making such a massive mistake. And Moriarty would latch on to the exact phrasing and repeat it in an attempt to get Sherlock even more concerned. I wonder of Sherlock picked up on the fact that Moriarty was quoting his own brother Mycroft? Sherlock BBC Sherlock bbcsherlock Sherlockians Jim Moriarty Mycroft Holmes Sherlock Quotes

I’ve been hoping someone would make this gif photoset. I detest it when people say… “Oh, Sherlock could have been just like Moriarty had he not been surrounded by people who cared for him” or something similar to that statement.

No, just no.

Sherlock may not grieve the deaths of strangers or show emotion at the time of their deaths, but he knowingly puts his own life at risk to save strangers all the time. Conversely, Moriarty would only risk his own life if he knew that consequently someone else would die.

As these gifs and their captions demonstrate, Moriarty and Sherlock may both have powerful minds and be misjudged by those around them, but they are not the same at all. Moriarty is part of the evil against which Sherlock chooses to fight.
