JOHN HAMISH WATSON: THE IDEAL MAN. (#nsfw -ish? for sex fantasy bit)

A prequel to my ‘courtroom scene’ meta-videos - this is the one I was working on. Basically, I believe that through these MP women we are privy to Sherlock’s romantic thoughts for John. With that in mind, and in the spirit of spreading the John Watson love, here’s what would be a comprehensive list of John’s positive character traits, explicitly verbalized throughout the series (not even Sherlock’s been given that many), which make him ‘The Ideal Man’ in Sherlock’s eyes:

♡ The best man. ♡ The bravest and kindest and wisest human being. ♡ Has many fine qualities. ♡ Very loyal. ♡ Warm and constant friend. ♡ Very good Doctor, over-qualified. ♡ Brave Soldier, ♡ Strong moral principle. ♡ Crack shot, a fighter, nerves of steel.  ♡ Has endured war, injury and tragic loss. ♡ A quaint, good man. ♡ On sparkling form. ♡ Nice-ish, clever, important to some people. ♡ Very romantic. ♡ Very charming. ♡ Listens. ♡ Is sweet. ♡ Has a lovely… *pointed look at John’s pelvis - cue sexual fantasy distraction* ♡ Has a lovely manner. ♡ Home-loving. ♡ Likes cuddling. ♡ Caring. ♡ Great boyfriend. ♡ Will do anything for Sherlock. ♡ Lovely husband, upright, honourable. ♡ Best parent in the World (Sherlock calls himself a ‘Baby’, impying John’s his Daddy.) ♡ Great, amazing, fantastic. ♡ Has got a great singing voice. ♡ Can cook. ♡ Observant in ways Sherlock isn’t. ♡ Pretty damned smart. ♡ Saves your life. ♡ Is Sherlock’s help-mate. ♡ Keeps Sherlock right.

This is what the title character thinks of John: the man he loves the most in all this World… UGH! ;)

NOTE: This is fun, but none of it is crack at all. So, hope you enjoy Sherlock scolding himself for wishing to compromise the integrity of John’s relationship with his fiancée as much as I do, because that’s an actual interpretation of mine based on visual parallels. If you need me to explain, I’ll be happy to!

Martin Freeman arriving at Lewes Depot Cinema for the grand opening

I didn’t realize people would be so salty about my brief convo with Steven about Mary. I prefer Mary to be evil cuz I think it’s more logical and hella more interesting, but to me it’s their show, they do what they want. Anyways, here’s the whole exchange while I remember it.

Me: do you think Mary was redeemed in the end, or was she still morally dubious?

Steven, surprised: well I don’t think she was morally dubious at all!

Me: uhh she did shoot Sherlock…

S: but she did it nicely, it was surgical. She was stuck in a difficult situation. If Sherlock didn’t mind it, why should we?

Me: so you think she was redeemed by her ending?

S, slightly frustrated with me: she didn’t need redemption, it’s not a scorecard. She had such a tougher background, so her movement towards humanity means more than …Sherlock is also, but he’s getting there, and John is solidly (for humanity, something like that I forget the wording, he rambled a bit, Mary took a bullet for Sherlock etc. )But she’s dead now, and there’s not a scorecard for that. It’s not black and white.

“If Sherlock has such a low self esteem that he is willing to be used as a doormat, why do we care?”
