James Moriarty - Blog Posts

Catch me if you can, Mr Holmes

All right you lil shits

It's been a while since I noticed this but was too lazy to actually sign in and tell it but...

This is William James Moriarty's hand in the ending song of the anime where he's a child

Now if you look closer, you will be able to observe that only he is the one who's painting with his left hand and Louis and Albert are painting with their right.

Yes, yes, how did you never notice it before? Well...

These are screenshots from the ending song where they are depicted as children and if you look at William and Louis's clothes, they are wearing the rag clothes they wore as orphans or before they went murder-arson-happy on Albert's family. That also tells us that this is before William took upon the identity of Albert's real brother William.

But in the anime grown up William, or adult William, uses his right hand instead of left even though he obviously used to be left-handed as we discussed before.

And this is a screenshot from the opening song cuz I was too lazy to actually find a better scene but moving on...

Now my theory is that the real William™ was right-handed so when our William™ did some first-class-eighteenth-century-identity-theft, he had to learn to be right-handed in order to fit in.

In the end, I would like to conclude this by saying that WILLIAM USED TO BE LEFT-HANDED BUT BECAME RIGHT-HANDED BECAUSE HE STOLE THE-REAL-WILLIAM™ 'S IDENTITY HE HAD TO BECOME RIGHT-HANDED AND THAT HE'S PROBABLY F***ING AMBIDEXTROUS Y'ALL

Thank you.

I rest my case.

really love fem! Moriarty

when he hires snipers to kill anyone that touches you 😍

“you’ve got to admit that’s sexier” 🫦

moriarty lowkey ate when he shot himself. "as long as i'm alive you've got a way out. good luck with that 🤪" like okay king of pettiness we love to see it

did we forget about the FACT that Moriarty literally created the game of 5 pips for Sherlock’s entertainment, which made Sherlock feel special and understood

AND that Moriarty specifically kept most of the victims alive BECAUSE HE KNEW that that’s how Sherlock likes his mystery solving(thus drawing Sherlock closer to himself, which resulted in them meeting)

Sherlock, even if he denies it, likes to be “a dragon slayer” and saved people are a clear sign of his success. Moriarty knew Sherlock so well, to create a game that would cause Sherlock to audibly express his love for it and the game’s creator

if this ain’t the most romantic shit you’ve heard all week then idk

the diamond Moriarty used to break the glass, was to propose to Sherlock actually

(The Abominable Bride: “a crack in the glass”)



that’s one of the most interesting things about Sherlock too. i think in most ways he’s very cat-like, which makes it hard to really pinpoint how masculine/feminine he is. we know his disapproval of conventionality, so he of course doesn’t believe in many traditional masculine things (gun, truck, war… idk i’m just a girl + sherlock likes guns so this example sucks ass), in many of which (not the ones listed probably) believes John. Sherlock moves with a lot of agility (cat) he’s uninterested in women (castrated cat) very elegant, english and wears silk robes (??? fancy cat). anyway i forgor what i wanted to say 💀

sherlock is just however masculine/feminine an elegant english sassy man can be, or he’s just a cat…

and he 100% was bullied cuz look at him. NERD

<3

and moriarty probably killed those ppl after tbh

nice to have a stalker who cares 🥰

Sherlock isn’t feminine (by social standards, define feminine however you want obviously) but he isn't exactly what society likes to view as muscline, so I'm almost certain that men weren't the nicest to him to say the least. Of course, like donnavan there were women with terrible intention but I imagine guys took more direct measure to "bully" him. And I'm also almost sure that it happened way before he found anyone he could trust besides his family. Certainly before he met John but before he met Mrs Hudson or Lestrade. He's not stong now by any means but he was weaker, he was more vulnerable. I can’t imagine all the things that he went through that made him act the way he does now.

ok but can we talk about how did moriarty and sherlock arrange their tea date?

like, i bet it was just like “i’m coming for tea” and that’s it, but it’s also so interesting that that just happens. i know it’s common for heroes and villains to be friendly and have good manners, but picturing them just texting(like they always do) about it is so funny.

maybe i’m forgetting something, haven’t watched that ep in a while.

unpop opinion? i would have preferred if sherlock died for real because perfect things are temporary

…

and also because that’s so shakespearean for him to jump after his boyfriend moriarty shoots himself

it’s a shame sherlock got cancelled after series 2 😕

but hey, good thing they didn’t completely butcher it by adding a few more seasons!! ☺️

For those of you who’ve read my analysis and theories about the pool scene and the overall dynamic between Sherlock and Moriarty, you may have noticed how heavily i’m implying that each and every moment is a sign of a connection built on pure emotion and that they themselves are aware of it.

In reality i’m trying to make sure my points are clear and so there’s a lot of repetition and connections in places (that frankly probably don’t have that much meaning on their own) that are just tiny pieces of the whole narrative.

Personally i think their unique relationship is something that we know is there but as viewers won’t be able to see and understand all the internal mechanisms of. Which of course parallels how much the characters know about themselves as well.

That complexity is also why not every moment is equally saturated in one meaning or the other. Sometimes their dynamic is just a rivalry, an aggressive intellectual game. Sometimes there’s “a crack in the glass” from which the emotions flood. But the chaos of it all is exactly what that connection is. A paradoxical mix of total appreciation and, to some degree, love and that sickness, addiction to danger, intensity, gambling with life just to feel something. They long to destroy each other… and honestly that’s as romantic as it gets.

So it’s hard to analyse these things, to see what overlaps and what lines are not to be crossed, but i hope you understand now better that i’m mainly only analysing that one level of the iceberg that is Sheriarty (whether romantic or not).

Remember when Mary died (r.i.p. 🕊️) and then John did some weird angry grunts instead of crying like a normal person? Yeah, that’s my 13th reason (the 12th being Irene’s duck nails), i fucking hate that sound.

No cuz explain to me - why? Who was like “she dies in your arms, now act that you’re a dog who’s chew toy is being taken from it”

Analysing TGG The Pool Scene PART 3:

“Is that a British army browning L9A1 in your pocket, or are you just pleased to see me?”

“Both”

Sherlock is clearly pleased to meet him and Moriarty is glad Sherlock is putting in effort. Let’s not forget the intimacy. If he shoots, they both go down. Sherlock is aware it couldn’t be this easy, nor would he ever want to kill Moriarty anyway. It’s once again the Shakespearian notion that they’re forever connected, intertwined in an intellectual romance, even in death, which makes sense considering their passively suicidal tendencies.

“I’ve given you a glimpse, Sherlock, just a teensy glimpse of what I’ve got going on out there in the big bad world. I’m a specialist, you see”“Like you” 

S: “Consulting criminal. brilliant.” A moment of pure admiration from Sherlock.

M: “isn’t it?” 

Another parallel. Of course, many of which are the products of Moriarty’s life long obsession with Sherlock. 

*John looks at Sherlock* He’s searching to decode whether Sherlock is with him or if he’s aligning with Moriarty on some deeper and more unsettling level. John wants reassurance that Sherlock isn’t crossing into Moriarty’s territory, where morality and loyalty are fluid.

*Moriarty looks at John looking at Sherlock* Moriarty of course notices that, he understands what an influence John is to Sherlock even if it’s subconscious. So he decides to play along, to be the villain everyone wants him to be, thus allowing Sherlock to become the hero, making this moment more comfortable for Sherlock. Ultimately, as I've stated before, Moriarty longs to free Sherlock from the chains of responsibility that don't reflect his true values, thus freeing himself (mostly from the loneliness, by having someone who's on the same page), but to do so he can't risk scaring Sherlock off.

"*Moriarty smiling* No one ever gets to me, *face darkens* and no one ever will”

The singsong tone is followed by a voice drop. It’s not hard to notice that the charisma is an act, it is a part of the Moriarty, "The Criminal Mastermind" persona. So here that first half of the line in singsong is a way to trick John into thinking that this is just a normal “crazy funny villain and the serious hero” situation. Which of course it is not. Then the second part of the line is a very cold “ and no one ever will”. Now that was said directly to Sherlock.

(Let me explain how to understand most of these lines with this example:

Moriarty says something that is such a basic villain line that “villain: 101” should sue. But what he says doesn’t matter in the context of “the game”, if we think of this line literally, the only thing it's adding to the tension of their rivalry is the challenge of unattainability. But it’s not about the game anymore. Nothing in The Pool scene actually is. Such basic villain lines don't matter in their content. All that matters is HOW Moriarty says them. The words were basically said to John, but the intention behind them was bluetoothed directly to Sherlock.)

He says it so calmly and yet with a note of despair, this hopeless level of indifference and emotional resignation that he couldn’t hide, that his fun act can’t cover. 

This line has more significance than it seems so on the surface. A theory is that with this line Moriarty admits to his loneliness, he jokes about it first, concealing the meaning behind with the very literal unapproachability that comes with his job, but ultimately no one gets (to) him, because no one understand/reaches him personally and emotionally. He might even be sceptical that Sherlock actually could, maybe he’s Moriarty’s only chance, which considering what happens in the Reichenbach fall, seems to become a reason for his suicide (with calling Sherlock "ordinary"). He’s been disappointed all his life, he’s so used to the isolation, so it seems natural to doubt the possibility of happiness. And so he communicates that with Sherlock, his only chance, he reaches out, because he knows Sherlock understands that feeling, that untreatable loneliness of unreachable ideals, which in a way makes it all even more heartbreaking. This glimpse of hope, Sherlock, in front of him and a painful crumb of realisation (“and no one ever will”) that the connection he seeks may be impossible after all…

*cocks gun* “I did” Sherlock doesn’t let the moment linger for too long and answers back with confidence. 

Sherlock truly is the first person to really meet him. Moriarty is a puppet master which means everything is done remotely, he “knows people”. But Sherlock is the only person who was actually allowed to see him, whether literally or figuratively.

Now… I would normally leave it at that, but something about this moment hooked me. I must warn you that this is some deep water, bottom-of-iceberg shit that you’re about to read.

REGARDING THE *cocks gun*:

I did some mild research and cocking a gun usually means “establishing control, authority”, I think everyone knew that. But what’s interesting is that the gun useless here in a traditional sense. It isn’t a threat, as NO ONE HERE CARES ABOUT THEIR LIVES. Which then means that it’s symbolic.

I WON’T BE ANALYSING THE GUN SYMBOLISM HERE. PLEASE I’VE BEEN IN THE DUNGEON WRITING 20 PAGES OF THIS ALREADY (I want to do it someday though, I think it's very interesting and GAY)

What will do though is walk you through everything that this moment could mean. Which is a lot.

1. Playing the Hero for John  

 The *cocks gun* moment is, above all, for John. Sherlock knows that John needs reassurance, not just of his safety but of Sherlock’s allegiance to morality and goodness.  The cocked gun signals that Sherlock isn’t on Moriarty’s side, that Sherlock hasn’t been seduced by the villainous allure of Moriarty’s chaotic world. It’s a signal to John that, at least in this moment, Sherlock chooses him. 

2. Sherlock’s fear of vulnerability and threatened identity

It’s also important what that gesture means to Sherlock himself. He’s in the middle of this intense intellectual and emotional push-and-pull with Moriarty, someone who fascinates him, understands him, and yet challenges him in ways John can’t. 

Sherlock is so invested in maintaining the illusion of invulnerability, not just for Moriarty or John but for himself. Acknowledging fully that he loves and needs this connection would shatter the way he defines himself. 

Sherlock’s fear of vulnerability runs deep, and it often manifests as denial—of feelings, of needs, even of his own humanity. With Moriarty, the connection is so raw, so intense, that it’s almost impossible for Sherlock to face without losing the carefully constructed emotional distance he clings to.

Cocking the gun could be a way for Sherlock to reassert his own identity, to remind himself and everyone else that he isn’t like Moriarty, that he has lines he won’t cross. The gun becomes a tool of self-protection, not physically, but emotionally. He’s essentially saying, “I’m not like you. I’m not drawn to you. I don’t feel this.” But the very intensity of his reaction suggests the opposite. He does feel it, profoundly, and that terrifies him more than any bomb or bullet ever could. 

3. Emotional Deflection through aggression

Sherlock is creating a barrier between them by cocking the gun, a way to avoid confronting the depth of their connection. 

And then there’s Moriarty, who seems to recognize this instinctive defense for what it is. He doesn’t flinch, he just watches with this almost knowing, dark amusement, suggesting that he sees right through it. Moriarty understands that Sherlock’s aggression is rooted in fear, and maybe even hurt, at the prospect of what their connection means. Moriarty doesn’t flinch because he knows the gun isn’t the real weapon here, it’s Sherlock’s emotional avoidance. Moriarty’s indifference to his life in that moment reinforces this. He’s not afraid of dying, what wounds him is Sherlock’s inability (or refusal) to meet him on that emotional plane, even though it’s what they both crave deep down. And to be fair threatening with a gun is such a "normie" move. Not only isn't it a threat, but Moriarty probably likes it. Ignoring the emotional connotations of this moment, this was flirting more than it was ever tactical.

In a way, both of them are locked in this tragic dance, afraid to admit they want the same thing: to be understood, to be gotten. But while Moriarty expresses his fear as defiance, Sherlock buries his in shame and instinctual rejection.

It’s also ironic that he hates the idea of being a hero, of being boxed into John’s moral framework, but he uses it here because it’s convenient. It gives him an excuse to push Moriarty away under the guise of righteousness. 

4. Returning to the Game to Avoid the Emotion: 

Sherlock’s inner conflict: He needs to say something to continue the game (which they both love), but the truth behind his words is dangerously real: “I see you. I understand you.” It’s a confession disguised as a taunt. 

The *cocks gun* and “I did” together are Sherlock’s attempt to drag the moment back into the comfort of their shared game, away from the messy, vulnerable reality beneath. Let's not forget the line before this "No one ever gets to me, and no one ever will". Sherlock's smug answer is almost like saying "yo, what are you talking about, can we just like, be normal?".

The line is textbook intellectual sparring, a move in their game, where Sherlock is claiming a small win over Moriarty. But beneath the surface, this line is charged with raw emotion. It’s Sherlock’s way of acknowledging Moriarty’s vulnerability while hiding his own. The cocky delivery is Sherlock’s shield, a way to keep things “in the game” rather than letting them spiral into the emotional realm that terrifies him.  

This is classic Sherlock. He frames everything as intellectual so he doesn’t have to confront the emotional. But the irony, is that his response betrays his emotions more than he realizes. By adopting the “hero” role here, Sherlock not only reassures John but also deflects attention from the growing tension between himself and Moriarty.

Yet Moriarty hears the disguised confession in “I did,” even if Sherlock is trying to drown it out with smugness. It’s like he’s patiently waiting for Sherlock to catch up emotionally, to stop hiding behind his role as the hero and see the truth of their dynamic for what it is. 

SUMMARY:

On the surface, it’s a simple game move: Sherlock reasserts control.  But beneath that, it’s profoundly emotional—two people who understand each other deeply, who see themselves reflected in the other, but who are too guarded to fully acknowledge it. It’s a moment of connection, disguised as competition, wrapped in deflection.  

M: “You’ve come the closest. Now you’re in my way”

Basically to translate: “you are truly remarkable, because you’ve gotten so close that now you’re capable of disrupting my plans, which no one before was able to do”.

The singing tone this time implies that his plans, his work don’t mean much to him. Sherlock is in his way and he doesn't mind one bit. It’s not really about all that, all his criminal work was the best high he could get when he couldn't have a connection with Sherlock. The real point here is that Sherlock cracked him, Sherlock passed the test. He saw through his villain behavior and found a lonely, tortured sould just like him. Sherlock was able to understand Jim and that intimacy is what Moriarty values more than anything. So yes, it is a compliment. but Moriarty says “closest” as if it’s still not close enough, that’s a hint for the hopelessness Moriarty feels. I don’t think at this point they’re fully aware of just how deeply they need one another, the feeling of being understood, valued and accepted, whilst being intellectually stimulated and entertained. “Thank you” Sherlock demonstrates their understanding and connection, even if here he's probably answering in the context of the game(aka: he's the first to come so close to an opponent of such class). And he genuinely appreciates the compliment, their mutual respect is apparent.

M: “I didn’t mean it as a compliment” was definitely teasing.

S: “yes you did”

M: “yeah, okay I did” (cutie :3)

^(MY FAV MOMENT EVER)

Analysing the Great Game PART 2: The Pool Scene

The pool scene was something that always confused me, but to be fair, I never really paid attention. in this post(all the parts, there will be like 5) I’m going to analyse it chronologically (if you call 10 minutes of tv history) based only on what we know from series 1, with some occasional (extremely rare and brief) references to later episodes. I did this because I haven’t analysed them and because I believe series 1 had the strongest vision and characterisation of Sherlock, Moriarty and John. I also wanted to stay as focused on the scene(and episode) as possible, and not let things that I know influence my analysis too much. so yes, some things might sound crazy in the context of what we know, but if you isolate this episode and series 1 it makes sense.

why does Sherlock choose the pool as a place for meeting? It’s a connection to Carl Powers - first crime, first case, first meeting (first date). Moriarty mentions it as being a nice touch – pretty romantic. Sherlock wanted a private meeting with Moriarty, as we can understand from him hiding the fact that he was texting Jim from John. He was even willing to risk the country’s safety(missile plans). And yet Moriarty uses John for Sherlock’s final test.

let the flirting begin. Sherlock: “Bought you a little getting-to-know-you present”. The way Sherlock so casually offers the plans is almost like he’s proving that “yeah, I don’t think it’s that deep either”. And during the whole conversation the plans only came up again when Sherlock wanted Moriarty to release John. And even then Moriarty dismisses them(“I could have gotten those anywhere”).

Sherlock wrongly assumes that Moriarty created the game (“of 5 pips” if you will) to distract him from dealing with the missile plans case. and I should mention that Mycroft’s role in this episode is interesting as well. throughout the whole episode he’s been nagging John about it, who was lying to Mycroft that Sherlock is working on it. it might’ve been just a red herring for the viewers which I accept wholeheartedly, but it could also be the first hint of Mycroft’s association with Moriarty. But this isn’t about Mycroft as few things are.

Sherlock looks unhappy when he sees John. naturally 1. John is in danger 2. he wanted to meet his rival privately. the distain in his face can be explained by his sudden realisation that he will have to keep up appearances, act in front of John.

now, in the whole scene sherlock doesn’t seem too worried about John’s safety and not at all angry at Moriarty for involving him in this. so he either feels safe or is indifferent about safety.

“I gave you my number, I thought you might call” I find it interesting that Moriarty actually called sherlock multiple times during their game, but he only did so as a criminal mastermind. He had the victims talk for him and all the dialogue meant business. To me this line is a subtle hint at needing an increased level of intimacy. in a way it’s Moriarty’s invitation for Sherlock to see behind his constructed personas. Let’s also take in account that he said this line in a sort of sing-song, which later will be very clear that it’s a way to deflect, avoid vulnerability. now he was talking to Sherlock as Jim, not some puppet master. he was implying that this relationship they share transcends the classic villain-hero dynamic. They share their untreatable boredom and loneliness though being misunderstood. Something so simple – a phone call - is the crumb of tenderness needed to free their connection from the boxes of their roles. now that the game was over they could allow themselves to be less formal about it, less conventional(in their interaction as Hero and Villain).

But then again there’s the issue of John being there. which seems counterintuitive. why would, if not only to raise the stakes, Moriarty involve john in this intimate meeting? 

One possibility is that Moriarty simply isn’t ashamed of his eccentricity(which in Moriarty’s and Sherlock’s case is the fact that danger, risks and proving their intelligence turns them on) and wants to encourage Sherlock to also embrace that darker part of him. he put Sherlock in a situation where he has to face his internalized need to conform. But, if that’s the case, then it’s odd that Moriarty doesn’t fight the performance that Sherlock makes for John. He expects Sherlock to be a hero who wants to defeat the villain and save the day and Sherlock acts accordingly. Even if it's obvious later that it is just theatre. Moriarty plays his part perfectly and possibly only because he respects Sherlock more. More than he wants Sherlock to become someone who lives like him, that's selflessness right there. Moriarty understands that Sherlock needs it, he needs to feel right by John and thus - society.

Another reason for John being there could also be that Moriarty wanted to create the contrast between someone who is doomed to misunderstand Sherlock - John and someone who gets him perfectly - himself. which considering the emotional subtextual subtlety of the whole scene feels more likely. although they’re not mutually exclusive. 

on a more surface level note I do think the line was supposed to just be a hint that he was Jim from IT. but at the same time, he was behind a door, and we, and only we as viewers could see his face. which in film usually means that the emotion is genuine, because there’s no one to perform to. and in that moment, he was doing his detached, creepy thing, which for me always read as very raw and desperate. Pretending to be scary, especially in privacy, is a coping mechanism. maybe there was a part of Moriarty that wanted a more “normal” relationship with Sherlock. Moriarty is conflicted about how much freedom he can create for himself and someone just like him, how far can he break the system and defy what's "meant" for him (being treated like a psychopath and nothing else). that's what this moment means. Sherlock and Moriarty share a unique bond that is often seen as wrong or sick, by people like John. perhaps here Moriarty was willing to be Sherlock's true friend or partner, even if it was just the residue of what’s expected of him by society. Something that’s understood by others, something rooted in proximity and mundanity, something more proper than their intellectual game. because doesn’t every outcast dream of being normal, even if just for a moment of weakness?

guys… that’s just the pool scene. a. ten. minute. scene. i am very serious about my gays 😿

guess who’s back. after a lengthy 2 or so months of static in my brain i decided to be of service and to post the full analysis of TGG. BUT i need someone to help me (although i now realise i could just google) with video clips. there is a limit of how many i can add and i think they’re important to illustrate my points. if anyone knows anything i would be extremely grateful, because i’m not going to be half-assing this one (i’m very proud of my yap :3 ) thank you!!

His Favourite Person

jim moriarty x reader

Summary: You have a nightmare, but the consulting criminal is there to calm you down.

Warnings: it's angsty at the beginning, but turns into comfort/fluff at the end, death (not really though, just in a dream), gun usage

A/N Hello! It's just a small piece I wrote after not writing any fanfiction for 7 years. I hope I did our dear Jim justice. Let me know what you think! Please keep in mind that English is not my first language.

You watched as he pressed the gun against his scalp. A smirk evident on his lips, like he wasn't bothered in the slightest by what he was about to do. Your heart raced, panic was written all over your face. No. This is not happening.

"Jim!" You tried calling his name, but he didn't hear you. You tried louder and louder, but it was like you weren't even here. Like you were just a ghost.

You wanted to run to him, to do something, but some kind of invisible force was holding you back. You couldn't get closer. You couldn't stop him.

Before you could yell out his name again, it happened. He pulled the trigger, a loud noise from the gun firing hit your ears and his body fell motionless on the ground, blood pooling around his head.

"No..." A whisper fell from your lips. Your hands were trembling, your heart squeezed.

"God, please no." Sobs started to rack your body, as knees your hit the hard ground beneath. The world around you began to fade. This is not happening...

You wake with a gasp, your eyes shot open. Despite the immobilizing panic your eyes quickly scan the room you're in and you recognize it as yours and Jim's shared bedroom. It was just a nightmare. Your eyes and cheeks were wet, and it felt as if your heart was about to jump out your chest. Despite the slight relief of realization that what you saw was indeed not real, you just couldn't calm down. You needed to see him.

Just when a thought of searching for Jim crossed your mind, you felt a hand on your shoulder, making you jump a little. You looked up, your frantic gaze meeting his concerned one.

He was still dressed in his day clothes, indicating that he probably didn't even went to sleep that night, even though it must be awfully late by now. Still, it wasn't a surprise, as Jim's sleeping patterns were a complete mess. He was either going over business with his clients or conveying orders to his employees or planinng his next move. His mind almost never stopping, which resulted in the man rarely getting any sleep at all.

His brows were furrowed, dark eyes scanning your face. Assessing your state it seemed obvious that it was a nightmare that has shaken you up so much.

"Hey, it's ok. It's ok." He spoke softly, his distinguishable accent pouring from every word. He sat down on the bed beside you and took you in his arms. You pressed your face into his chest, hearing his heartbeat; a clear indicator of him being alive. Your arms came around him, and you inhaled deeply, trying to calm down. The slightly faded scent of his cologne has grounded you further.

"I'm here." He said as he left a small kiss on your head. Seeing you in such a state bothered him. The sight made him frown. Many thought that Jim Moriarty didn't feel anything, that he was heartless. And while it is true for the most part, you were the exception. The only thing that mattered in the long run. You were partners in crime, most of the time; literally.

He propped his chin on your head, his thumb rubbing your back in a calming motion. Finally all the emotions started to slowly evaporate. Your heart rate started going back to normal, as you soaked in Jim's touch, his warmth, his scent, his whole being.

You were the only person who's distress bothered Jim. You're his favourite person afterall. The only equal in this world full of ordinary people. And he will always be there for his one and only other extraordinary person.
