  They’re talking about fanfiction, which in most fandoms predominantly include gay shipping

    To be fair, fanfic doesn't have to be about alternate relationships. It can be just fixing the studio/corporate butchering of a working lore, or going in directions that are legit but aren't interesting enough for movie/TV writers. And some of the fanfic crowds are VERY particular about consistency.

    Fanfic for Star Wars prequels is pretty incredible. What could have been. And sure, that includes relationships.

      Can’t fix ‘Sherlock’, though.

    Maybe I just don’t get it, but I just don’t see there being anything vaguely inspiring of that sort of chemistry between the caracters of that specific show. Other duos in other shows, ok, but Sherlock just seemed so far from that dynamic.
