Amanda Abbington is worried. Martin and Ben haven’t spoken beyond their scenes together while shooting the Special. She approaches Ben after a scene and asks, “What happened with you two? Is something the matter?” Ben shakes his head and replies, “I just can’t believe after all of our years on the show he’s still insisting on that characterization of Sherlock!” Amanda throws up her hands. “What characterization?” Benedict takes a puff of his fake pipe and blows it into the wind. “Check Martin’s bag - see for yourself.”

Amanda goes back to Martin’s trailer and finds him inside, sitting with his heads in his hands. “Whatever’s going on between you and Benedict,” Amanda starts, “you need to tell me now.” Martin sighs heavily, pulls his bag onto his lap, and pulls out a piece of paper. On it is a graphic drawing of John and Sherlock having buttsex, John on top of Sherlock with his face buried into Sherlock’s neck. “I tried to show him,” Martin says, pulling similar works of art out of his bag until the floor of the trailer is practically tiled with brazen bottomlock smut. “But he thinks toplock is canon.” 

Amanda pulls martin into a hug as he sighs. “Oh, I’m sure you could work it out. I mean, maybe they switch.”

Martin backs out of the hug and narrows his eyes at Amanda. “The fuck you just say to me.”
