Can you please reblog if your blog is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, aromantic, pansexual, non binary, demisexual or any other kind of queer or questioning people? Because mine is.

What did I just do-

So I told my English teacher ( I don't live in an English speaking country) about the MTP manga right? Cuz like the manga has an old type of English language and the time period is in the late 1800's.

And my teacher is OBSESSED with the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and I told her this was a different take on the story and that you get more insight about Moriarty ( And Liam and Sherly are married, it's true don't even try to deny it.)

So then today, I asked my teacher about it again and she told me she read a few chapters online- and she BOUGHT THE MANGA VOLUME 1-

THIS IS SO- OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE IT

Get me someone that looks at me like how Sherliam look at eachother

If my future relationship is not like Sherliam then I don't want it.

I need someone who looks at me like how those two look at eachother.

I swear I love how some people look at it this way because it's all things that I didn't even notice

The first time we saw YuuMori talking about atonement was in Grapefruit Pie—no one tried to repent for anything in the first chapter. But in Grapefruit Pie, Burton was suffering because his son died and he (and his wife) both feel he is at fault for letting it happen.

Maybe he was. He didn’t do anything. Was there a lot he could’ve done? Realistically, no. But he feels he could’ve done more, and so does his wife. And what helps him heal and move on and make amends with his wife is, well, doing something. And there’s a parallel to that and the Moriarty brothers in sharing their crime and sin and burden together (something that, interestingly, also sort of comes up with Sherlock and William), but it’s also a way for them to put “right” some of the wrongs.

Whether or not that’s atonement for Burton’s earlier sins is questionable. I mean. He murdered a guy; the series never argues that murder is a good thing. But it is still a way to deal with guilt, to do something with it.

In Dancers on the Bridge, we see a little bit of it, too. After a fashion, it can be laid at Lucien’s feet that Frida died. Was it really? No, but he helped bring her to ruin. And he bought her a headstone, finally, the way her coworkers wanted her to be remembered. He did something to make up for the small fault he committed in drawing her into something.

YuuMori talks a lot, in addition to atonement, about being corrupted by society and the devils on Earth. Neither Burton nor Lucien would’ve had anything to atone for were it not for the devils William wiped out, and they are sort of seen as cleansed afterward—not perfect, not quite whole, not over what they lost, but in some way having done something to repair what was broken and wrong and moved on.

But the first time the thing with atonement becomes really clear is Mycroft.

Mycroft hasn’t done anything wrong, but he works for the British government years decades after one of his ancestors committed acts of tyranny on behalf of the British government in France to make up for his family’s crimes. Sherrinford Holmes got himself killed out of his own guilt, and his own, and because he was dead he could do nothing to fix it. Nothing to help anyone. And that sin got passed onto his family and bound them to try to atone for the entire mess he created.

If we want to get all religiously Christian here as YuuMori likes to do, it’s a kind of Original Sin: something passed down because of the sins of your ancestors that taints you from birth. That’s why Christianity does baptism; to cleanse that away.

Sherlock was protected from that sin by Mycroft, who sacrificed himself in a way for his little brother, bearing the weight of their family’s atonement on his own shoulders. Someone did something for Sherlock to keep him from having to repent in a martyr/sacrificial way to save him. Sherrinford didn’t redeem himself by dying. He just passed the burden along to innocents to try to fix the damage he caused.

And when William was seen as dead, and Albert ran away from the job, Louis took his place working under Mycroft for the British government. Someone had to make up for the sins of the family, and Louis took up that burden, and Albert took up that burden, hoping to protect William from some of it the way Mycroft protected Sherlock.

Of course, that’s not how the story ended up going: trying to protect their brothers did nothing. William and Sherlock serve their time repenting for their crimes with the United States. Because no one can take on the burden of your atonement for you. The burden never leaves.

It’s always there until you take it into your own hands and do something about it.

OKAY UPDATE SHE BOUGHT THE WHOLE BOX IN GERMAN?! (GERMAN?!)

And that's all I'm gonna know for 2 months 😭
