This Is An Interesting Idea. Gnomes Are Usually Together, Gargoyles Come In Pairs, Even The Dolls Are

this is an interesting idea. gnomes are usually together, gargoyles come in pairs, even the dolls are together in the dollhouse. i think he was sort of made to be evil in the first place, so he never started off good. however i do wonder how he'd react to a little affection. just a thought.

I wonder if the reason Moriarty is so desperate and needy when it comes to attention is because he's lonely by design. Most people around him has company. The gnomes have their own communities in gardens, the toys have each other, even the gargoyles are housed with other gargoyles. But he sits alone on a van. He doesn't get the privilege of resting in a pretty lawn, or on a building with a great view. He just sits by himself on top of a van with nothing but his phone.

I don't think his isolation is the reason he's a killer. Sherlock himself said that "some are just manufactured evil". Moriarty was never going to be a good person, even if he was just another garden decoration. But the loneliness probably didn't help, and just ended up being a contribution to his attention seeking. There's a reason he's so obsessed with Sherlock; the guy gives him a TON of attention and never stops thinking about him, even if that comes from hate rather than care. Attention is attention, it doesn't matter where it comes from. Sherlock himself even calls Moriarty out on it, saying "you're very needy for a villain".

I'm not trying to invent a traumatic backstory that will excuse people justifying him, I love this little gay pie but he is NOT a good guy and I don't think he should be treated as such ascskfhjkl
