Aww, don't worry. You had no way of knowing if my interest in Irene was due to the original story and her will to go all out for the man he loved (Norton, of course) or for her latter role as romantic interest in the adaptations that followed.

I hate that she's turned into a romantic interest (I just had a discussion with a friend about bbc!Irene just because of that) since I feel it diminishes her. But I still can't help but wish to see her every time a new adaptation comes along, to see if they finally get her right.

Thanks. Though, really, I've seen you in other posts and threads, and I should have remembered you're one of the (few, it seems) people who hate the IRENE <3 SHERLOCK TL4EVER nonsense...

The BBC version is just so... God...

I don't think being in love with Sherlock HAS to diminish her, actually; but it often ends up doing so (like the BBC version, where her emotions end up being her downfall). But even if it didn't, I wouldn't like it.

With so many threads, it's understandable. It helps I decided not to change icons for a while, but I know it can be confusing.

I liked the BBC version until she started with the nosense of her attraction to Sherlock (I know sexuality in RL is fluid, but the trope of the lesbian in love with a guy tires me SO much) ... and I would have even accepted that if she hadn't been saved by him at the end. By which I mean, I don't want her dead, I just want her to save herself. Is that too much to ask?

Yeah, it can be confusing...

Honestly, until/unless they show John trying to get until Sherlock's pants, I'm just gonna say Moffat's full of shit on the whole "fluid sexuality" thing.

As for Sherlock saving her: I didn't want him to because she's not worth it.
