      She seems to be marrying Godfrey Norton because he's a decent, normal guy who doesn't have any big mission in life with a big ego to match and a need to win her as a prize to back that up She wants the hell away from the King because she wants out of dealing with men like that

      So actually getting tangled up with Sherlock seems like it'd be WORSE than staying entangled with the King It'd be the worst possible thing she could do

      You're right. And I think that's the other bit that bothered me, and I didn't think of it until you articulated it: Irene has no interest in Holmes beyond figuring out who's screwing with her this time. She has her own self-contained life and he is the intruder.

      Exactly One of the iconic things about old school Holmes stories is the "But Now I Must Go" trope, that Holmes barges in on someone's deeply personal family drama and then leaves again He's able to do what he does because he sees himself as a disinterested third party

      (Which got flanderized wildly when they made him into House MD, a voyeur addicted to trashy soap operas who interferes with other people's lives because he has no relationships of his own, etc)

      But on Holmes' side it's wildly out of character for him to stay involved with a case after it's been resolved, *especially* to shack up with a woman in a case where he refused payment because he concluded he was wrong to ever fuck with her life in the first place

      I mean, Watson did exactly that, and ends up marrying Mary Morstan from The Sign of Four, and you get the feeling Holmes views the whole thing with quietly repressed distaste ("We're on the job man this isn't Victorian Tinder")

      And I think a lot of people misread that as "Holmes does not like women or marriage" instead of "Holmes does not like taking advantage of trauma bonding." Which makes Watson's marriage to Mary kinda...not quite so cool.

      I mean Watson does specifically refuse to act on his feelings for Mary until the case is resolved because it would be "indecent", although that's mostly about the fact that she's possibly going to inherit a priceless treasure and Watson's no gold digger

      But yeah you can derive a lot of dark comedy from the fanon that thanks to the inconsistent timeline of the stories Watson has been married and divorced several times, probably due to unhealthy trauma bonding every time

      Which House also went ham on, with their idea that Wilson just can't stop falling in love with and marrying his own terminal cancer patients That charming scamp
