imagine the lost special comes out and we still don't know if this arg was a product of our imagination or the real thing and as the episose nears its end john says sth like "remember Louisa? you met her last year in my reunion at mike's" and credits roll

Hi, you are wonderful! Btw do you know fics with John being cute? :)

hey friend, I had someone ask for something really similar lately …

John is sweet and clueless

Lov tobakko ash by pjordha, 17 k,teen. Fusion with Bridget Jones’s Diary. Crack. This is so funny! John is luredinto a relationship with an old school chum of Sherlock’s Sebastian Wilkes.Sherlock is not happy. Situations and hijinks ensue.

Morphine, the Matchmaker by TheMadKatter13,2 k, mature. John might be in hospital, but if there’s a gorgeous nurse sittingat his bedside when he wakes up, he’s going to chat him up. Amnesia, fluff.

Let You Kiss Me (So Sweet and So Soft)by out_there, 8 k, gen. John tries to figure out what experiment has Sherlockkissing him at intervals over the week. John calls Mycroft to see if Sherlockis doing this to bug him. They have an entire conversation where John saysnothing. Sherlock sulks loudly and reads aggressively. Sweet  fluff, & humor.

It Had to Be You by esplanade, 9 k,teen. This is a wonderful Johnlock fusion with the movie “When Harry MetSally.” So cute. All the fluff!

Five Times Sherlock gave John a Pebble andOne Time John Returned the Gesture by grimmfairy, 1.8 k, not rated.Adorable bit of fluff. Sherlock courts John, but does it subtly, leaving himpebbles as penguins do. Eventually John catches on. SO CUTE.

20 Romantic Rituals From Around The Worldby TooSelin, 13 k, mature. Adorable established relationship fluff. Sherlockhas a new experiement - trying out twenty romantic rituals from around theworld with John to see if they feel any differently. So very sweet!

The Secret Identity of John Watsonby scifigrl47, 27 k, gen. This pre-relationship gen fic manages to be adorable.When John starts dating Samantha, the bizarre situations they keep findingthemselves in has Sam and her friends betting on whether John is in the mob, aspy, or who knows what.  Bonus Sherlockas secret stalker is adorable.

Love Notes: Tinned Beans byaquabelacqua, 1.5 k, teen. John has spilled the beans on his feelings forSherlock, then hurried out to do the shopping afraid to see what Sherlock’sresponse will be. ADORABLE!

Unguarded by 221b_hound,3 k, mature. John is injured during his hospital shift. High on painkillers, hebabbles a lot on the way home, and at home, all the pet names he has forSherlock. Donovan and Lestrade think it’s embarrassing, and hilarious - andultimately, something kind of precious. (Part of the Unkissed series.)

I was just thinking about how weird it is that tst uses voice-over narration at the beginning and end, how unprecedented it was in the show and what a weird choice to introduce it for the first time in series 4 and then I realised it's not unprecedented. we have one more episode that starts with a voice-over. the abominable bride. and since John was narrating inside Sherlock's head, it makes perfect sense for sherlock to narrate inside John's

[wampeters]

also why did they wait for sherlocks "death" to introduce Mary when in acd canon john marries her way before the final problem? it's almost as if they thought giving John a love interest with sherlock still in the picture would not be credible mmmhh

[wampeters]

the fact that sherlock has said that he doesn't intend to marry and that he'll never make another vow is a clear trope that he will do both. to john. how anyone fails to see this is beyond me

[wampeters]

reminder that it is canon that sherlock was using a rum bottle for an experiment and went through the thought process of ‘oh no, if john somehow came into contact with/ingested this it would hurt him :( and since I can’t even stand the thought of that or the idea of something bad happening to John, specifically on my account, and since there is even the SLIGHTEST possibility that john might see this and for some reason - by accident or otherwise - come into contact with/ingest this in any way shape or form, I must put a LARGE sticky note taped to the glass just to make sure he doesn’t. just to be safe. better safe john then sorry.’

WELL DONE LA LA LAND

HOWEVER-

When did they think it was a good idea for it to become ‘Mary’ versus ‘Sherlock’?

I can’t bring myself to reblog a post as I don’t want it in my archive due to the video, but this post shows the promo video for s4 that was shown at the BBC Worldwide Showcase in Liverpool at the beginning of February. Have a watch:

Somewhere, maybe on that bus during s3 filming, when the epiphanies started to occur and they obviously changed direction in how they were going to write s4 and 5, the idea sparked that Mary should be the main feature of the story. It could have been sparked by Amanda’s acting? But you know, they had Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch already pulling all the stops out, and with due respect to the competency of Amanda, I just don’t think she’s in their league. Was it the ‘Moffat can’t write women/is a misogynist’ reputation that is rampant out there? Could be, as Steven’s ego fights for dominance even over his own writing projects. It may have been a long felt sorrow for the canon character of poor wifey Mary, villainized for over a century because she came in between Holmes and Watson. A noble try to right the wrong and fix it. Nah….not these two writers on that particular issue, they just keep adding even worse female tropes as is evident in Eurus. So what the fuck went on? Because they did do this.

Mary the narrator, Mary the author God of the action and character development via DVD, ‘Mary’ the name it all came down to at the end [see the video linked above] Mary who could be all things; mother, wife, girlfriend, assassin, friend, liar, catlover, the most brilliant person in the room….Mary who could become Sherlock. Mary who transplanted Sherlock as wife to John, even in canon she only did that in name never reality. Mary who could out detective, out think and out manipulate Sherlock. Mary the Great Detective/Assassin/Woman [sorry Irene, she beat you]

They fucking killed their own show, their chance at history making television, their LGBTQ landmark, for….MARY? 

[wampeters]

ok but we're all aware sherlock didn't resort to drugs to escape boredom but to block out the bullying and insults that were thrown constantly in his direction bc he started believing he was, indeed, a Freak. i mean Suicidal Tendencies Holmes would definitely do that. thank God for John

[wampeters]

they probably also didn’t understand the extent that rewatching s4 would be excruciating for us and preclude us from generating the kind of meta we vitally needed in a timely fashion

[wampeters]

have you considered sherlock giving john a quick shy peck on the cheek and making the :> face when john smiles up at him
