IT MIGHT BE HAPPENING.

[from-the-desk-of-john-watson]

not to be insane about Them again but I was just thinking that actually... Watson doesn't know all that much about Holmes, or at least, that's how it comes across in the text. He doesn't know about Holmes's past or his family life. And (as far as we know) he doesn't pry. He just kind of accepts it.

He obviously wants to know though. It's obvious in his excitement when Holmes tells him about a past case, or takes him to meet Mycroft. But Watson is the perfect example of Minding Your Own Buisness. He doesn't ask because he knows his questions wouldn't be welcome with someone like Holmes. I honestly think thats why Holmes takes to him like he never has with anyone before. Watson lets Holmes have his privacy and doesn't judge him for it.

And it shows that you can love, trust and admire someone completely without knowing absolutely everything about them. They make me insane, your honour.

"It is indeed, a fearful place. The torrent, swollen by the melting snow, plunges into a tremendous abyss, from which the spray rolls up like the smoke from a burning house. The shaft into which the river hurls itself is a immense chasm, lined by glistening coal-black rock, and narrowing into a creaming, boiling pit of incalculable depth, which brims over and shoots the stream onward over its jagged lip. The long sweep of green water roaring forever down, and the thick flickering curtain of spray hissing forever upward, turn a man giddy with their constant whirl and clamor."

i really loved them leaning into the ‘benoit is the closest thing to a modern holmes we’ve got’ with glass onion esp in the scene where hes talking about how between cases he feels like a racecar running itself to pieces between cases because of how understimulated he is while his husband bakes bread in the other room

Peter Cushing in The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959) is something that can be so personal actually
