^^^^BRB WHILE I SOB

and then there’s lestrade just standing in the back wondering if they’re gonna kissi wish this would come into it a little more tbf
maybe I need to hand in my queer card or something but I so don’t read this scene as having any subtext at all? or even any hint of sherlock being a good person?
like I see it more as
#that moment when sherlock realizes he is in the presence of a bigger badass than him
or maybe
#that moment when sherlock realizes that he was wrong about something and man he really hates to be wrong
idk, I mean people can romanticize sherlock all they want of course, but personally I think sherlock is a huge bag of dicks and I don’t mind that at all I think it makes him a good character so uhhh whatevs :D
not in this scene specifically
or at least not just with the context we’ve been given so far
but the background “bit not good” moments contextualise it i think
in that there’s reason to believe he isn’t deliberately an asshole all the time so much as just
bad at uh
human interaction
awwwwww, in the bottom right gif, Sherlock’s got like this pleading look on his face to John and I’m just like BABY...
