Sherlock theories

How Jim helped Sherlock fake his death. (And possibly his own)

Ok ok I'm sorry to the one person that wanted this  (@SyndyHolmesMoriarty ) it's been a long time coming I just got super lazy

Welcome to the most convoluted stupid theory you have ever read I hope this makes a bit of sense

So John is at his therapists. He's distraught. He can't even say that Sherlock is dead. So obviously he did not release the details of Sherlock's suicide call (this doesn't seem important trust me it is)

We then start the episode. 3 months earlier. Sherlock is getting a reward for finding the painting. "falls of the reichenbach. Turners masterpiece". He gets diamond cuff links

Then a man who was kidnapped is thanking Sherlock. He gets a tie pin

Then he captures a man with the last name ricoletti (an odd occurrence. However it's most likely unimportant). He gets a deer stalker. The perfect segue into John worried about how the press will turn on Sherlock.

The paper is suggesting they are dating (lol) Sherlock almost has a moment of realization while asking why it bothered John

Oh and here we are. The Tower of London. Jim is taking pictures. Sherlock's phone chimes. So basically jim is giving Sherlock the chance to stop him by literally spam texting him photos telling Sherlock exactly where he is. But he knows Sherlock won't check his phone. Because he's Sherlock

He opens an app on his phone that we are lead to believe corrupts all security for the place selected. He's putting on a show. Giving us the dramatic beginning to a fairytale he's writing.

He writes "get Sherlock" on the glass

He sits on the throne. Now here's our first random thing out of the hundreds I could address.

Sherlock gets a text. There's no way jim is texting on the throne. And this wasn't an earlier text. Not one of the pictures he sent. This is something that lets John immediately know that it's moriarty. So that means one of the buttons he pressed not only had a signal for his people to shut things down. It also sent a text.

ANYWAYS I DIGRESS

Jim is arrested

One of the many papers covering the story has a reference to conan Doyle (ha)

Cue sinnerman. You should really take a look at the lyrics it's pretty interesting considering the rest of the episode.

And there's Jim walking ominously down a hall. And cue another slightly off topic rant from me. Jim is wearing a grey suit. Classic for a trial. People tend to wear light colours during a trial to portray innocence. but we don't care about the suit. We care about the pin. His game is centered around fairytales. And there happens to be one about a fox. You can read more about it but I'll gave you the rundown. There's a fox with 9 tails. It makes him better then every other fox. He has a wife but he doesn't believe she is faithful. So He fakes his death. His wife attempts to find a suitor. That doesn't sound special on its own but I mean it's something

John says not to be clever.

Ugh kitty. Now she was annoying. But Sherlock was brutal. Honestly he went way too hard here. He made an enemy. He would not care this much about her. Not at all. This seems pointed.

"You repel me"

Now here's Sherlock. And he goes too far. Again. Seems to be a theme. He goes in for the drama. "He's a spider" really amp it up. He's playing his part to perfection. Intentionally or not we have yet to decide.

Jim nods.

Ok and here's where I start to believe Jim and Sherlock planned this. "Anything else will be treated as contempt" and Sherlock looks at Jim. And moriarty smiles. And Sherlock gets put in a cell. And so does Jim. And you could not convince me there was not a discussion behind closed doors. The only place big brother couldn't see. Anywhere else they would meet up mycroft could track. But oh. Sherlock being over ambitious? That's believable. Happens regularly. So of course. It wouldn't be suspicious. If Jim and eurus can bring down everything in 5 minutes of planning, I'm sure this meeting was enough to fake Sherlock's death

I'll publish another chapter later

Sorry for any typos too lazy to proofread this shit
