did we forget about the FACT that Moriarty literally created the game of 5 pips for Sherlock’s entertainment, which made Sherlock feel special and understood
AND that Moriarty specifically kept most of the victims alive BECAUSE HE KNEW that that’s how Sherlock likes his mystery solving(thus drawing Sherlock closer to himself, which resulted in them meeting)
Sherlock, even if he denies it, likes to be “a dragon slayer” and saved people are a clear sign of his success. Moriarty knew Sherlock so well, to create a game that would cause Sherlock to audibly express his love for it and the game’s creator
if this ain’t the most romantic shit you’ve heard all week then idk
