Direct quote from A Study in Scarlet: "Holmes was certainly not a difficult man to live with. He was quiet in his ways, and his habits were regular."
And yet nearly every adaptation (especially the more modern ones) play into the 'arsehole genius' trope and make Holmes a bad housemate.
I cannot accept 'bad housemate' Sherlock. Not when the first conversation he ever has with Watson is when he ensures that they compare habits to see if they'd be a good fit for sharing a flat.
When adapting Sherlock Holmes, I can only accept one of two things:
Holmes is genuinely a good housemate, or
Holmes is weird as hell, but there's something equally wrong with Watson to the degree that Holmes will be doing science experiments with poisons in the kitchen at 3am and all Watson does is glance at it and go "ah such quiet habits, I'm so lucky to have found such a good and reasonable housemate".
I feel like no one ever talks about the one scene in Study in Scarlet where we find out that before Watson met Holmes he was, in fact, a FAN OF DETECTIVE FICTION?? He got insulted when Holmes started hating on Dupin and Lecoq. He had faves. The FIRST thing he told Holmes when old dude said he was a detective was "oh like my blorbos! :D" and Holmes told him "your blorbos are shit". Like we talk about Watson being enamored and a d1 glazer all the time but we don't talk about the fact that he MANIFESTED ts into his life. Soulmated so hard that Holmes was his favorite genre before he even met him.
Everyone always says that Watson is the sun and Sherlock is the moon, but they are WRONG and here is why -
To start with the most obvious reason - Watson is, as Sherlock puts it, a conductor of light. He presents Sherlock Holmes to the world like an artist would a painting - if Watson was an illusrator he'd put a picture of Sherlock on every page of his books - and he basically already does in his descriptions.
Watson is also just very moon coded in general - his colours feel like a more warmish grey, and he has that relaxed old man vibe to him from time to time. Watsons character feels tied to how he cares for people and interacts with them, and I personally believe that to be a very moon-like quality.
Sherlock is also very sun coded - he shines brightly, and everyone notices him, but people can't truly see him with their bare eyes, he's misunderstood by many and can seem quite jarring. Sherlock accels in many areas, and people offen put him in a higher possision of importance compared to the moon. (But just like the moon, Watson is never fully forgotten in day-to-day conversation).
Sherlock cannot help but be the centre of attention due to his brightness.
People make the mistake of thinking sun = whoever is more bubbly and confident and moon = the shy, slightly grumpy one. And as much as I would ague this isn't always the case, I would like to mention that by that standard Sherlock still feels more sun-like and Watson still feels more moon-like.
People often forget that Sherlock isn't just a thinking mechine, he can be cheeky, theatrical, and Watson can often doubt his abilities and hide himself behind Sherlock's genius.
But either way you look at it - Sherlock amd Watson cannot truely shine to their full potential without each other.
let’s tell each other stories
followed by the color sketch and the original idea

Ok go my sherlocks
Well, aren't we "us" sharing pronouns now?
So how could we separately heal?
