I Was Just Trying To Watch The Episode "A Mathematically Perfect Redemption" During My Break At School

To the tune of Without Me

Hey everyone! Here are my thoughts on Wrath of Khan before I start watching The Search for Spock:

‼️!SPOILERS OF COURSE!‼️

Firstly: Spock getting Kirk a good book and Bones getting him reading glasses makes me think about them discussing what each of them should get him for his birthday and trying to coordinate it accordingly

Secondly: "You keep missing the target!" No comment, just pure badassery from Kirk (and fear for the people around him)

And now I'm gonna copy and paste the thoughts that I'd typed out about the probably most important scene in this movie right after having watched it:

Mmmmmm Kirk didn't know that Spock was dying, kept thanking/complimenting Scotty for the good work over the intercoms (?)/communicator and actually thought they had made it out and everything was fine and safe now, only to have a distressed McCoy on the comms just a seemingly peaceful moment later, urging Kirk to come there. Now. and Kirk's immediate thought is Spock and so he runs and is absolutely trying/willing to throw open that door to get to Spock before he gets held back and reminded that this would kill everyone else :( And then Spock gets up, straightens his uniform and after just having cowered in the corner with his back turned, walks up to Kirk to speak with him and tell him that he shouldn't grief (oof) and that it was his logical solution to the Kobayashi Maru and that he had never taken it before and as he slides down, pressed against the glass, Kirk follows him closely, most likely trying to stay as close to him as possible for as long as he could

And then Spock takes off his protective glove and tells Kirk to llap and Kirk presses his hand against the glass too and they touch but can't really🫠

Needless to say, I am excited for The Search For Spock lol🧍

Felt John in this scene as someone who has horrible handwriting a bit too much to not animate it 😔/lh I finally finished this after a few months woooo this was so cool to work on I hope y’all like it too :D

I just listened to the first episode of Sherlock & Co. again and Stamford doesn't warn him here either😭

Though the difference is that John instantly knew that this wasn't gonna be normal because the first time he sees Sherlock he is bleeding. On a treadmill. Because he's doing an experiment on himself. So while Stammo hasn't warned him here either, at least John could throw out his expectations of any normal conversation himself, before being "mouth-doxxed" as @valhallassoundbox put it, since that's a much less normal start to meeting someone than the person just innocently asking for someone's phone lmao

Buuut Stammo still let John walk into this room unprepared for what Sherlock was up to, although to be fair he couldn't have known that *that* was gonna be what Sherlock was doing either, but he probably knew that there was a chance it was gonna be something like that

I just find it funny how Stamford seemingly did NOT mention to John that Sherlock would know everything about him the moment he’d walk in there. He did not know that he was instantly gonna be able to tell him everything about himself as if he had just finished copy and pasting a Wikipedia article about Watson directly into his verbal drive

Instead of warning him Stamford was just like “Can’t wait to see your reaction, it’s better when you experience it first-hand without spoilers lmao” and decided to let John walk into that room completely unprepared for what he was in for lol

John thought this was gonna be a relatively normal conversation

Guess my favorite Arcane character challenge

level: impossible

Yes!! I'm still reading it, but it was wonderful to see Sherlock being all giddy about his research at the start instead of the usual gloomy man who only gets vaguely excited about a case every once in a while😭 (I know that's exaggerated, but MAN the original Sherlock seems precious so far)

Just started reading Sherlock Holmes and all the adaptations are wrong. This man is a delight. He gets excited about hemoglobin and is ecstatic at the thought of Watson as a roommate. He purposefully forgets how the solar system works so he has more room in his brain for crime. He shows Watson the dirt stains on his trousers and he can tell what part of London they come from based on color and consistency. (As far as i can tell Watson didn't ask, Sherlock just gets back from walks and tells Watson about the stains unprompted.) The text specifically says "Holmes was certainly not a difficult man to live with." Why does every adaptation make him unpleasant and rude, he's literally just eccentric. He's such a goober, I love him.

Cowboy-ify one/some characters!!

the one on the top left was my first attempt lol so ignore that, but yeah, Pike's already a horse guy so cowboy-ifying him seemed like the logical choice🫡

!BBC SHERLOCK SPOILERS!

(can you hide images on this site in case of spoilers? In this case it‘s a bit too vague to be seriously concerning I think but still🧍‍♂️)

This finale is absolutely crazy

Did a sketch of this, I think I'm definitely gonna integrate it into my design👀

Also just realized I forgot his ear defenders💀

What if I gave my Sherlock & Co. Sherlock a 12th Doctor style coat with a hoodie jacket, would that be cool? I think that would be cool
