I Can't Stop Thinking About How "Dying Wish" Is The Song Of The Lord Of Crime And "Twisted Hearts" Is

I can't stop thinking about how "Dying Wish" is the song of the Lord of Crime and "Twisted Hearts" is literally Sherlock's love letter to William. 😭

The clipped music used in the episode openings are just a glimpse but listening to the whole songs reveal a lot more. "Dying Wish" is like the manifesto of the Moriartys and tells of William's sacrifice. It also gives hints of William's own suffering.

"Twisted hearts" is Sherlock aching and yearning for William. At first, he believed that he's just a pawn for the Crime Lord—the detective who solves the crimes, the light to match the Crime Lord's darkness.

He struggled to find equal footing, but once he finally saw William eye-to-eye, he realized that they see each other the same way—as dear friends. Uh soulmates actually— *gunshots*

Sherlock knows and feels William's grave sins and deep pains, and here's him wanting William to let him in. He wants to tell William that he has a choice and he's not alone in building the ideal world and future he envisions. Sherlock wants to set William free. T ^ T

Sherlock: Liam, you’re offered 500,000 dollars, but, if you accept it, the person you hate the most in the world gets 1,000,000 dollars. Would you take it? Liam: Of course! I mean, why wouldn’t I want 1,500,000 dollars? Sherlock: ... Liam, no.

tony falling asleep on the plane back from afghanistan, laying prone on Rhodes’s chest in order to avoid exposing his arc reactor, and because he trusts rhodey’s judgement of when it’s safe to sleep (and trusts rhodey to wake him if needed).

People trying to get rhodey to do paperwork or give official accounts of what happened. and he just waves them off bc tony is finally asleep on his chest.

rhodey tells people he’s crying because of the smoke fumes on tony’s clothes. he’s lying.
