Oh, so it was you. Hello there, same anon.
Once again, thank you for your messages. They’re very nice of you. I wish you all the best as well (and wish you had a tumblr of your own so we could speak privately)!
If you are the same anon from all those months ago, I’m delighted once again that you were introduced to The Fall via my tumblr. If you aren’t them, well.. I’m delighted for you as well.
Anyway, thank you for your message. I very much appreciate it, and I’m glad you got some sort of enjoyment from what I posted.
I’ve tried to think of ten facts to share without revealing too much about myself, but I cannot think of anything worth while. I’m not a terribly interesting fellow, so I suppose there isn’t that much of a loss here.
If it’s any consolation to you, I’m not really the sort of person to answer these.. ‘quizzes’, shall we say — even if it were about Sherlock Holmes.
Oh, why thank you. That’s very kind of you to say so.
If you like that particular song, you should listen to the rest of the soundtrack for A Single Man; both it and the film are really quite beautiful.
In fact, anyone who has not watched that film should do so immediately.
Oh, well thank you. I was inspired to post it after a rewatch of Third Star (which is a film with it’s own moments of beauty).
I’m not sure if any future music posts from me will be to your taste. I can but try.
Hm, I don’t know. Perhaps it was me, perhaps it wasn’t. In any case, we’re following each other right now, so.. hoorah?
Oh, your art isn’t crappy! It’s absolutely darling — and I completely agree with what you said regarding the lack of retired Holmes fanart being quite sad. I may try to draw some when I have a sketchbook available to me.
Oh, no, you don’t sound creepy at all. It’s quite all right.
I’m afraid I’m not who you think I am. While I have had one other tumblr account before this one, I never communicated with any of my followers (unless the odd question was asked).
Thank you! If I, for some reason, cannot model my retirement after Sherlock Holmes, I think I shall go to New Zealand and live in a hobbit-hole.
It is, indeed, a spectacular film. I found it much the same way as you (through someone’s Tumblr page), and am delighted that I stumbled upon it.
Anyways, I’m glad that you managed to obtain it and watch it!
Oh dear, I didn’t see this. I apologise if you’ve been waiting a while for a response.
Well, I will say right away that I am not a fan of that bloody stereotypical look (deerstalker, cape, bulbous pipe) he’s constantly associated with. At the same time, people wouldn’t be able to recognise him without it because the look is so iconic. That is the only reason I have to like it, otherwise I have to try very hard not to drag my hand across my face every time I see it or hear it mentioned. Although, just because a Holmes is donned with these items doesn’t mean I won’t watch a film/programme.
My favourite aspect is more difficult to define because I love the character as a whole. I would say that it’s probably that each adaptation has a different way of shaping him and his characteristics, and it’s interesting to see how they unfold in the show/film/whatever.
Oh, thank you? I’ve been meaning to post this for a while, actually, but I can be a horrible procrastinator.
Honestly, I’m a bit taken aback at the response to this; it’s simply something I noticed. Oh, well. If people enjoy it (which certainly seems to be the case) then that’s fine.
Oh, erm, thank you! I’m glad you like them.
