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

one important thing that Must be understood about interpersonal relationships is that you have to stop interacting with people who love you like they’re one slip-up away from leaving you. you have to trust that the ppl you love mean what they say. you have to believe that when they say “this hurt my feelings,” that they’re also saying, “can you please love me this other way next time?” and you have to wrap your head around the fact that even if you don’t understand Why someone loves you, you can accept that that they do. true, honest, & open love does not function like hp in a video game !!!!!!

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if the phrase "self care" doesn't resonate with you, try calling it "system maintenance" and see if that clicks.
