As to the Mary being psychotic...season 3 episode 3.
John: Are all the people I know sociopaths (or psychopath, can't recall which was said)
Sherlock and Mary: Yes.

Me: No...Mary is not the same as Sherlock or Moriarty. (And that was what I was complaining about there)

Actually, I would label Sherlock's brother as the sociopath, and Sherlock as having learned such traits from his brother (with their mother being off, and therefore distant, and their father being busy), and sociopathy is a much more common trait found in modern politics.

Actually, I'd expect Moriarty to be a bad guy. That is what I meant by over-the-top. His character is trying too hard to be...something he is not, and I could tell that from step one.

Actually, something very similar to the visuals of the "mind palace" would be the trait of "thinking in pictures." It is what made me think of it in the first place. *Is now trying to use the tree-castle in my mind as a visual/movie library*
Admittedly, it is not the same when I think about it.

Edit: Gods, I didn't recognize the overuse of "Actually" - my bad
