“John.” “Yes?” “…” “Oh.”

 Sherlock stayed with Mycroft for awhile after detoxing or going through a drug treatment program. Of course, though, Mycroft  didn’t allow dismembered body parts in his house because he keeps a super clean home forcing Sherlock to rediscover his love of baking. When he was little, he and his mother would make cakes, pies and cookies all the time and it’s what got him interested in chemistry.

So, every night, Mycroft would return to find his brother, still in his dressing gown from that morning, covered in flour and sleeping on the couch because he didn’t make it to the stairs. From there, he’d walk into the kitchen and find a dozen cakes, fritters and pies. 

The only choice he had was to eat them because, well, someone had to.

OF COURSE I DID. I CRY EVERY TIME. OH GOSH. THE DANCING LESSONS ARE STILL FOREVER ENGRAINED IN SHERLOCK’S BRAIN. HE THOUGHT THEY SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON IT, BUT NOT ENOUGH TIME TALKING.

OMG. Mini meta time:

Since this sequence is in Sherlock’s head, can we presume that Sherlock thinks they spend too much time DANCING AROUND EACH OTHER instead of TALKING TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER?? Sherlock doesn’t think John understands the things Sherlock is trying to say to him. Because what does Watson do in this scene?

John’s confused at the whole conversation that transpired. The same one where Sherlock told Wilder that he and John were ‘together’. Yeah, Sherlock wants to talk about them being together for real, and he thinks John won’t understand when Sherlock will eventually bring it up.

And Moriarty likes to watch Sherlock dance. 

Sherlock loves dancing, always has. 

Mrs Hudson came in one time. 

… okay, calm down, let’s do that scientifically.

BUT Then they showed us THIS ENDING SCENE. IN TAB.

And this is it. This is how it WOULD HAVE ENDED IF we were in the Victorian era. This is an happy ending for Vic!Sherlcok and John, but not for ours. Plus they would not spoil us the happy ending of the show! Now take this scene and think would would happen…

picture 2: maybe if I grin like an idiot, nobody will notice how gay I am

OOOOHHH!! Nice catch, Nonny!! Quite possible they are very much related. Sherlock absorbs everything ‘John’ like a sponge, so I don’t think it’s far off to have him literally quoting John in his head to ‘reciprocate’ his thoughts and feelings, especially at a pivotal moment in their friendship, at least in Sherlock’s eyes.

And both times, they have stupid idiotic love-struck faces, I can’t even with this morons.

LIKE THEY HAVE THE EXACT SAME STUPID FACE. I HATE THEM. 

The main level of TAB is about things which Sherlock has in his mind including his thoughts and opinions to John. Also about his recognition that John is actualy damn smart. But on another level there was lot of stuff by creators, which works as help for us. And one of the most important things there could be fact that John realy is smart and we shouldn’t underestimate him!

Next series is going to be from John’s point of view (probably) and so it was very important for them to show us everything he is capable of. TAB isn’t only about Sherlock thinking John is smart. TAB is also about how we should think just the same. And what seems very interesting to me here is how they present his medical skills. Actually more than twice:

1) John is correcting Sherlock’s diagnose about Lestrade

2) John is finding that Emilia was dying

3) John is browsing dead body of sir Eustace

4) John is revealing to everyone that Emilia was nearly to death anyway.

What is even more interesting he plays like he knows less, than he truly knows. And in this scene creators are alerting on it.

,,Isn’t he observant now that Dady’s gone!”

Well… he is happy to play the fool for him…

When we look at this new one episode, there is lots of thoughts about how clever John is and how good doctor he is. And yes. John damn is. So I was thinking about how is even possible, that he didn’t find out, Sherlock nearly died. Or, to be more accurate, realy died for a while. He was with him since a moment he found him in coma.

 He was in an ambulance with him!

 (and knew very well what was happening around them). 

,,We’re losing you, Sherlock!”

He was all night in a hospital. He had to speak with doctor, who operated him. He probably was with Sherlock, when he woke up…And mainly he isn’t an idiot. He is a doctor too. A very good doctor. Which is a thing he said to Sherlock very next day after they met.

So what creators showed us in  TAB? John is a good doctor who just pretends not being so good. Specialy for Sherlock’s eyes. While episode continues he knows that Emilia was dying, but keeps this information just for himself until end. When finaly tells everyone that Emilia was dying and he knew it ( as well as he knew that Molly was a woman. ) Sherlock seems to be suprised. And at the end John saves him from Moriarty. So that is what were creators telling to us.

Oh yes, one more again :D Pretty damn smart! :3

And here is my new point for real John: 

John knew, that he nearly lost Sherlock again. And it was just something what he wouldn’t forgive to anyone. Neither his own wife. Specialy her. Because she saw how broken he was after Sherlock’s death before. From that moment he never gives her honestly kind face again. I mean… if he knew, then would simply couldn’t. And that is exactly how he looks rest of the episode His Last Vow:

He was so angry while Sherlock persuaded him that Mary is from that moment their client. But Sherlock had to have some reason for that, didn’t he? 

“Always your way.”

You know…. This scene reminds me another one!

It is I am happy to play a fool for you scene.

John is practicaly saying that he will play his game, even if he knows the truth. Like maybe that he will pretend he believes his spiel about how Mary saved his life, even though it’s bullshit. He’ll keep doing what seems Sherlock want from John. With a hope that his friend has a some good plan. Actualy when I re watched His Last Vow John realy looks he knows all the fucking time that Sherlock almost died. He realy looks he knows that Mary wanted to kill him. And he’s not only angry with her. He hates her.

Just look at him, to his face when Sherlock is trying to convince him, that Mary is just a client who needs a help!

Or here, where Sherlock was claiming she saved his life:

WHAT?!
