Hey conductoroftardislight!

Yeah, that question was about old movies, BUT I think Jack probably has mixed feelings about RENT. I bet there are days when he finds himself humming bits of it, and others when he’s practically singing La Vie Boheme on tables. And then there’s days when he can’t even talk about it and might even say he hated RENT. It’s about the beauty of human life and connections with others, but also about the inherent butterfly tragedy of how human life is so brief and fragile.

Everything about Angel and Tom’s relationship screams Janto to me and it hurts. After Ianto died, Jack probably didn’t touch Rent with a ten-foot pole for years.

soulmate au where instead of your soulmates first words to you written on your skin it’s their last words you ever hear them say so you don’t know who your soulmate is until you lose them

i have been called satan so many times because of this post

what the fuck why would you 

NO

YESSSS

#THE BEST PART#IS#WHAT IF YOU ASSUMED THE PERSON WAS YOUR SOULMATE#LIKE NO DONE I’M SURE ITS THIS ONE I DONT CARE IF I HAVEN’T HEARD THE WORDS YET#AND THEN THEY DIE#AND THE WORDS ARE ALL WRONG#AND YOU’RE LIKE#WAIT NO THEY WERE MY SOULMATE#BUT NOPE. TURNS OUT. THERE’S STILL SOMEONE ELSE OUT THERE THAT YOU NEVER MET#AND YOU’RE OLD BY NOW SO THERE’S NOT ENOUGH TIME LEFT TO REALLY EVEN KNOW YOUR SOULMATE#and you’re probably going to hear it in passing#some one they wheel you past in the hospital – and you hear those words#but it’s too late#god this is the most delicious fucking au yessssss

you’re grounded

Imagine being in a dangerous setting alongside your soulmate and hearing the last words and realising they’re the last words and calling out to try and warn them – and this warning being the thing that distracts them for just long enough for them to be killed.

What is wrong with you people.

“Dr. Watson is the handsome one”

Martin Freeman admitted in the London Apple store interview that he was really surprised to see the scene in the final cut because he only did the whistling (and pointing?) to make Benedict Cumberbatch laugh.

And that’s why I’ve got this nebulous feeling that they acutally erased a line. The original script might have looked something like this:

TESSA: Which one of you is Sherlock Holmes?

SHERLOCK: Dr. Watson is the handsome one… so I’m Sherlock Homes.

This would have been a perfect reference to a line in The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes:

GABRIELLE: Which of you is Mr. Holmes and which is Dr. Watson?

HOLMES: Dr. Watson is the handsome one.

Rethink this. In the Rizla game Sherlock is unable to deduce that he has written his own name at his forehead. And when Tessa asks “Which one of you is Sherlock Holmes?” Sherlock concludes “John (Dr. Watson) is the handsome one” (or “John is the pretty lady”…) “so I must be Sherlock Holmes”. He would have answered Tessas (and John’s!) question and finished the game at the same time.

That this is only a head canon makes me kind of sad.
