Call me Elle. My blog's basically whatever new series I'm into, currently Arrow (Olicity—there is no other choice to make.) and the Flash. And period dramas. Plus old Hollywood. Let's just say, I keep things interesting. Also, if you write fic and need someone to copyedit, I'd be more than happy to do it! I'm not the greatest with writing fic, but editing is my jam. Let me help :)

“In the middle of “Turn It Upside Down,” Sherlock offers Joan a ring. The context isn’t romantic; their conversation about Morland’s cruelty and Sherlock’s struggle with addiction is the opposite of pillow talk. But the image is deliberate. He’s low to the ground, offering the ring to a standing Joan, and that framing is deeply recognizable regardless of context—it’s an offer. It’s an offer here, too, though not of marriage: marriage is a product of passion. It’s something even rarer for Sherlock: an offer of intimacy”.

my fave greek history story to tell is that of agnodice. like she noticed that women were dying a lot during childbirth so she went to egypt to study medicine in alexandria and was really fucking good but b/c it was illegal for women to be doctors in athens she had to pretend to be a man. and then the other doctors noticed that she was 10x better than them and accused her of seducing and sleeping with the women patients. like they brought her to court for this. and she just looked at them and these charges and stripped in front of everyone like “yeah. im not fucking your wives” and then they got so mad that a woman was better at their jobs then them that they tried to execute her but all her patients came to court and were like “are you fucking serious? she is the reason you have living children and a wife.” so they were shamed into changing the law and that is how women were given the right to practice medicine in athens

Yeah, this isn’t some Greek myth story about a hero or demigod or something, Agnodice was a real person who actually did this.
