To be fair, canon Holmes could be quite emotional - we see him variously furious, delighted, ashamed, snippy, apologetic, terrified, homicidal, smug, compassionate, amused, touched and several other things over the course of the stories. It was sociable that he usually wasn't, and sentimental was usually a bit of a reach as well.

Not sure where people are getting the impression that ACD!Holmes is an unemotional robot, because he really isn't. He's just not a fluffy schmoopy type when it comes to expressing his emotions.

I don't think anyone in this thread has the misguided impression that Holmes is an unemotional robot.

In this thread, specifically? No. In Sherlock Holmes fandom overall? Yes, there are people with that impression.

nayrt but I assumed you were referring to someone in this thread, too. Because the discussion is about apples, and it'd be weird to break in with your opinion about oranges.

DA. It seemed natural enough to me, given that the comment they're responding to is responding to a bit of the secret talking about people in fandom trying to make canon Holmes 'more emotional'. The fandom's tendency to see him as cold and unemotional seems pertinent enough to me?
