#Sherlock and John love each other

[strawberrywinter4]

Summary:

Marcus Maverick is one of the most feared vampires in the city of London. He is known for taking down what was known as one of the most powerful families among vampires, the Holmes. Sherlock Holmes was out of the way, and that meant Maverick had the privilege of taking his dedicated lover and partner, John Watson. John Watson was the most wanted human of all vampires due to his wealthy background and connection to the Holmes family. Maverick kept John Watson as his partner for three years until his death on a rainy, cold night on December 31st. Right after John’s death, Maverick demanded his many sorcerers and doctors bring him back to him. Years later, after doing much assiduous work and using a bit of forbidden magic, Maverick’s followers found a way to give him his John back. Well, not exactly his John, but certainly someone’s.

Started listening to Sherlock & Co. and I was unfortunately not immune to Johnlock propaganda….

Okay but the way Sherlock kept reassuring Mariana that she doesn't need to do anything she's not comfortable with?? That he would do it instead so she wouldn't have to?? Like? EXCUSE ME SIRRR?? 😭

I hear the talk about Mariana and John this, Mariana and John that - but let's talk about Sherlock and Mariana!!

This case had Sherlock encouraging Mariana to speak up and NO don't say you shouldn't talk when you got smt to say to the team! Your input is just as valuable and needs to be heard!! You're a part of this team and this is a team effort!

And when they were about to find the bodies, the way he talked her through an extremely traumatic situation? 😭 That shit got me fr like yes what you're thinking is horrible but whether you like it or not it is true and we cannot change this to suit the reality we want, we can only accept it and continue from there - and he was kind!! He didn't look down on her or mock her for wanting to not believe what was true, because it was traumatic and something she wasn't accustomed to.

HOWEVER what I really loved was that she didn't need to do smt she didn't want!! Im so glad it didn't take the 'but you have to do this' bullshit route that many stories do because it's okay not to, it's okay to know your limits and stay in it, it's okay to not want to do something you don't want to!! There's nothing you have to prove because you shouldn't have to!!

This podcast mannn.

Relationship envy except I envy the bond between iconic fictional characters Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson

[somethingintheforest]

no wait i'm thinking about the Three Garridebs again-

Watson gets shot (or rather, shot at). This is a man who was shot before (twice, if we go with the interpretation that he was shot in both the shoulder and the leg) and pretty much as soon as it happens, he's focused on Holmes and Holmes's reaction and he's filled with awe and love when he sees just how important he is to Holmes.

but. my man got shot. again. this man has PTSD, getting shot again is not going to help that in the slightest. but he focuses on Holmes, Holmes's reaction was so stunning and important to him that his reaction to that preceeds any reaction to getting fucking shot at itself.

it's possible he could have had some sort of breakdown later, but idk. i've just been. Thinking.

The way Watson in Victorian-era canon says "oh, god, yes! Take me to one of your dangerous cases!" goes like this:

“Well, I don’t like it, but I suppose it must be,” said I. “When do we start?”

“You are not coming.” (Said Sherlock).

“Then you are not going,” said I. “I give you my word of honour, and I never broke it in my life, that I will take a cab straight to the police-station and give you away, unless you let me share this adventure with you".

The way Sherlock in Victorian era canon says "I need a partner!" and like this:

"I think that I had better go, Holmes." Said Watson.

"Not a bit, Doctor. Stay where you are. I am lost without my Boswell. And this promises to be interesting. It would be a pity to miss it."

"But your client --"

"Never mind him. I may want your help, and so may he. Here he comes. Sit down in that armchair, Doctor, and give us your best attention." (...)

"If not, I should much prefer to communicate with you alone." Said the client.

I rose to go, but Holmes caught me by the wrist and pushed me back into my chair. "It is both, or none," said he. "You may say before this gentleman anything which you may say to me."

And other:

With an apology for my intrusion, I was about to withdraw when Holmes pulled me abruptly into the room and closed the door behind me.

"You could not possibly have come at a better time, my dear Watson," he said cordially.

"I was afraid that you were busy."

"So I am. Very much so."

"Then I can wait in the next room."

"Not at all. This gentleman has been my partner and helper in many of my most successful cases, and I have no doubt that he will be of the utmost use to me in yours also." [explains Holmes to the client].

The stout gentleman half rose from his chair and gave a bob of greeting, with a quick little questioning glance from his eyes.

"Try the settee," said Holmes to Watson, relapsing into his armchair and putting his fingertips together, as was his custom when in judicial moods. "I know, my dear Watson, that you share my love of all that is bizarre and outside the conventions and humdrum routine of everyday life. You have shown your relish for it by the enthusiasm which has prompted you to chronicle, and, if you will excuse my saying so, somewhat to embellish so many of my own little adventures."

I can't stop thinking about Mycroft and John's first interaction with each other.

Returning to my johnlock roots after so long away from the fandom is actually insane like I forgot how much the fandom loathed Mary but literally every single fic published after/during season 3 is like "Mary's holding John hostage. Mary was the sniper in the pool. Mary cucked John and the baby isn't his. Mary only married John on Moriarty's orders to kill Sherlock. Sherlock has to free John from his psycho murderer abuser wife with the Power of his Magic Cock" like.

Outing myself today as a Mary Morstan supporter. My girl did nothing wrong.

Lets talk about another very emotional scene in GoS: the train scene, when Holmes nearly died. It was the moment when Watson showed how much he really loved Holmes, despite of his denial of it. Actually there are many nuances in this scene that show both Holmes' and Watson's love for each other:

1)Before Holmes died, he was lying and Simza was singing a french lullaby to him. But Holmes was staring at Watson- he was admiring him while John was applying stitches to his own wounds(it's pretty obvious even from this scene that Holmes really likes admiring Watson) And I think Holmes felt that he might die because of his injuries, so even before closing eyes to death, he was just quietly admiring Watson and reassuring himself that he is the last thing he sees(like in the Reichenbach falls scene). This shows how much Holmes loves Watson and wants to remember him even after death.

2)Then Watson performs the most emotional CPR while calling Holmes "selfish bastard". First time in GoS Watson was soo devastated. Then Simza pushed him away and hugged him, and we could see that Watson was almost crying. This is the moment when we saw how much Watson really loved Holmes, despite of those bitter words he said before.

3) After that emotional CPR, Watson remembered Holmes' "adrenaline like" medicine and injected it. Holmes suddenly jumped up and ran screaming about a terrible dream he had with that "Titanic Pony with a Massive Fork". And we can see that from the three people who were watching him in shock, only Watson came forward to calm him down. He took his arm and pulled him closer, and Holmes fist loosened and he held Watson's arm(when people form a fist with their hands it means that they are nervous and uncomfortable and a loosening fist means that the person is calming down from that state) This moment that lasted a minute or so means so much to me, because we can see that only Watson can calm Holmes down when he's scared or nervous and that Holmes trusts only Watson.

Once again thinking about BBC sherlock has the best representation of a queerplatonic relationship I've ever seen
