I have discovered the good side of my unproductive phases \o/! It's having time to actually watch/listen to the Andrew Scott stuff I have accumulated. Also, OMG, did that one thing just end well? I didn't have any hope that it would, but then it did, aw!

Because my brain is silly and 2 occurrences already make a pattern, having watched 2 things in a row in which he played a gay and non-evil character, I jumped to the conclusion that Andrew in part got the role as Moriarty, because it could fool people into thinking he's just once again playing a gay and totally not evil character. The fact that the German Moriarty's voice actor is known for voicing good guys might have had an influence on my conclusion.
