Sorry for dragging your answer out here but I have so many thoughts on your answer, because I agree SO hard!
Like, whatever people might say about TJLC one thing that still makes sense today: John Watson: bisexual/ Sherlock Holmes: gay or acearo or gay asexual (if you feature a queer Sherlock Holmes/John Watson dynamic)
But making John Watson gay in The irregulars, erasing his canon (!) female love interest and making Sherlock Holmes bisexual by giving him a female love interest he never (!) had in the books is so paradox!
Y‘all want to see Sherlock Holmes kiss a woman so bad it makes you look dumb
He never! Had any interest in Irene! Is anyone reading the canon books these days?
Same goes for enola. I headcanon her as bi, but ace also works really well for her. Whatever she is, girls not straight, but because she is the main lead she needs to end up with a box she never even told her name in the books! And Sherlock also needs to kiss a woman because ✨straight people ✨
Seriously if the rumors are true… which are often not true btw, I will be so mad
Especially because there is still no John Watson casted.
In conclusion: no matter if the rumors are true or not, if I see enola kiss a boy and Sherlock kiss a woman I will riot
