Hey DBS! <3 A quick lil q: in TBB, do you think Sherlock spinning John around in circles was really a mnemonic device to help him remember the Chinese numbers, or was it just an excuse to dance with John? :) Shoutout to you for being awesome, btw!!

Ah yes, you are referring to the Mating Dance of the Heterosexual Males (as seen on National Geographic.)

image

This spectacular and brilliant bird is a magician with a special trick.

image

First, he demonstrates a little flash to attract his completely platonic mate. 

image

In the bird world, this is known as “collars up.”

image

Let’s watch as he works his magic.image

Grabbing his potential mate’s attention (literally).

image

The potential mate is intrigued…

image

…though also a bit taken aback.

image

But stares, entranced nonetheless.

image

Eye contact is strictly maintained.

image

Even as the dance picks up in intensity.

image

Notice the potential mate’s distinct expression of confusion and arousal.

image

Also note the stunning blue scarf, specially chosen to catch the potential mate’s eye.

image

Success! It works.

image

He gives it all he’s got, eyes practically glowing with fervor.

image

The potential mate moves in tandem with him now.

image

He’s curious, curious. (It’s the scarf. So mysterious.)

image

The moment of truth is approaching.

image

The bird puts it all on the line with a final strut.

image

The potential mate looks him up and down, senses still reeling…

image

But alas, it appears as though the potential mate is too overwhelmed and confused by this particular bird’s beauty. 

image

Not today, my friend. Not today.

image

But do try again soon…

image

…you were so close, after all.

what’s the deal with super villains and new york? the world has thousands of cities. “nope let’s just destroy that one”

they were mad because they couldn’t get hamilton tickets

“Lin,” The Falcon says to him.  The Actual Falcon.  The guy that helped Captain America save the world from HYDRA.  Captain America, by the way, is engaged in a sweet, gushing conversation with Chris (no doubt about George Washington).  “We need a favor.”

“Uh, sure, whatever you need.”  Like he’d actually say no this guy.

“We need two tickets to the show for tonight.  Front row, center. This cosmic deity, Thanos, is threatening to take over Earth and enslave on its people if he can’t get tickets.”

Whaaaaaa?

“Yeah, apparently he can’t work PayPal.”

Lin’s gotta admit, it’s hard to rap when your staring at a 20 Foot, Purple, Cosmic Being wearing the craziest bling ever stares you down from the front row.  It’s even weirder when he starts weeping during ‘Dear Theodosia’
