He says, holding up his own drink.
I’m CONVINCED that John has smth going on with alcohol. I’m not sure what it is, but there’s something happening there. This line is interesting to me bc for once, his sister is “off” the drink, but Sherlock is relapsing & I have a feeling that John might be reacting to or in the same situation as one of them. Idk tho, I just liked how he said “she’s sober” while he himself is a bit tipsy

Not a question but ... I've just read a discussion about John's long-lasting drinking issues (screens from MHR and HLV). So I'll just send you this: SUE: That’s a huge glass of wine [John’s] having there, isn’t it?BENEDICT: I think that’s a whisky, isn’t it? (...) STEVEN: If you watch this show carefully, there is a subtext about John drinking. John’s just hammered by every midnight! (...)MARK: Even he forgets the names of his girlfriends, and that’s why!

Hi Nonny!
Yeah, John’s drinking has been brought up before, and I believe that quote was added to the post in later reblogs!Â
A lot of us believe that drinking in this series has a lot of subtext behind it:
Tea and Subtext - There’s a lot of subtext about the use of tea vs coffee in Sherlock, and it all points to Johnlock.

All Drink Mentions and Their (Assumed) Meanings - An excellent compilation of drinks and the connotations associated with them within the series. This expands upon the Tea Metaphor, looking at all the drinks. Similar to the Phone & Hearts Metaphor, drinks in Sherlock symbolize sexuality. (Pre-S4)

“He’s Your Cup of Tea”: Use of the Tea Metaphor in Sherlock - Another more in depth meta regarding the tea = homosexuality metaphor, this one strictly focusing on tea in relation to Moriarty and Sherlock.

There is SO MUCH meta about drinking and liquids in the series, so the last links bring you to more theories about the various “codes” that we think exist as subtext in the series, since there is just so much of it, I think it’s just better, if you’re interested, to peruse my tags instead, LOL.
Sherrinford is not really the name of some high security prison. That was just a figment of John’s frantic coma dream. And Eurus is not actually Sherlock’s sister. That’s just something random she said to John before shooting him. Sherlock and John were never actually estranged. That was just their act to cover up what really happened to Mary – or Rosamund Moran, as her real name has turned out to be. Sherlock does have a secret sibling, though, and his name is Sherrinford. After finally eliminating Moran – though in a rather dramatically different way than they had envisioned – and exposing the truth about Eurus, John encourages Sherlock to delve into his past and to find out whether the reasons to keep Sherrinford away from Sherlock were the right ones, and to discover what really happened in 1981. Along the way, Sherlock and John gradually, finally, stop keeping each other at a distance, and eventually become a proper family of their own.
For those of us wishing for a fix-it to make sense of the insanity of S4, this fic is a godsend! I’ve been waiting for the S4 fix-its based on meta to come rolling in and finally, @shirleycarlton has saved us all with this brilliant reimagining. I wait each week to see how she is going to reshape the mess we saw on screen to mean something deeper, on par with the John and Sherlock we know and love so much (and recognizing Mary for the villain she was).
Those of you who have been creating, commenting, and reading meta on blog-theory, John’s coma-emp, and even Sherlock emp will enjoy this! It deserves a LOT more attention than it has so far, go give it some love! (Tagging a few of you who I think would appreciate it).
i'm looking for meta on john's drinking habits. links, anyone?
