“You told me once that you weren’t a hero. Um. There were times I didn’t think you were human. You were the best man. The most human human being that I’ve ever known and no one will convince me that you told a lie. I was so alone and I owe you so much.”
#okay no #this moment hurt #Because John has no idea #He has absolutely no idea that that’s the last thing he’ll ever say to Sherlock Holmes face to face #But Sherlock does #He knows that and he knows John is right in what he says #He’s about to go out and give literally everything for his friends #for John Watson #But to protect John he has to hurt him first #has to make him leave #so he just sits there and takes it #Because friends protect you
#the worst thing about this is that those fucking chairs are the most blatant piece of mis en scene #john’s chair is comfortable and homely and is built for relaxtion #sherlock’s is pokey and postmodern and functional above all else #and they face each other - not a tv or a focal point in the room but each other #as if they’re a pair #because they are a pair #mismatched and odd but #a pair all the same
it bears teeth extra sharp that’ll cut you in the heart

So I realized
that Reichenbach is going to kill me.
And that THEN I'll have just to wait and wait and WAIT.
What I deduce is that:
I can't.
