nansliceFinished season 3 of Sherlock and I gotta say, this is the gayest show about heterosexual men I've ever watched.
EVERYTHING SHERLOCK DOES IS FOR JOHN????????????????????
HIS HEART LITERALLY RESTARTED WHEN MORIARTY TOLD HIM JOHN WAS IN DANGER???????????????
HE MURDER MAGNUSSEN SO THAT JOHN COULD BE HAPPY WITH MARY????????????? EVEN THOUGH HE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO BE SENT ON A SUICIDE MISSION????????????????????????
Like okay, I like Mary well enough, she's pretty adorable, but I am super not invested in that marriage at all, like dang, why should I care about it? There's was no build up there at all, she just showed up while Sherlock was gone. The season started and there she was. Naaaaaaah.
I really don't want to be one of those people who hates a (female) character because she's "gets in the way" of my ship but. BUT.
ALTHO I quite liked Janine, hahaha, she was pretty dang funny. I'm also interested in just what it was that she and Sherlock did, since apparently they didn't have sex. Hmmm. :\a
This is the season where the writing really seemed to go downhill, hahaha.
I dunno when I'll get around to watching season 4. Probably tomorrow? Maybe?

I definitely agree that John feels like a character who's not really satisfied with normalcy (and this is basically stated within canon; the fact that Mary's a ex-assassin is why John's interested in her, even though he didn't know about it!) but considering the shenanigans Sherlock keeps getting him into, I could see them staying together forever.
I'm a hopeless romantic though, so I could be casting rose-tinted glasses towards them, hahahaha.

I think he and Sherlock will have that forever friendship and if it hypothetically did turn into something more it'd probably work, but honestly, Sherlock comes off as very...asexual in nature. He doesn't seem interested in sex. For him, the arousement is all intellectual. In fandom, I'm not against them being together, but I don't see it as cannon any more than John and Mary being one true loves, either. lol. But it makes for fun imaginings and so many potential wonderful stories, because it is plausible to a point and I think the writers embrace that a little when they're working on the show.

XD But canonly I absolutely prefer Sherlock being non-sexual, although I would love for he and John to partake in some platonic romance. |DBUT I definitely don't think it'll ever be canon, haha. I don't think they'll ever go there.

IDK Sherlock is just peculiar and that's what makes him so interesting in general, and also his relationship with John so interesting and full of possibility. :D XD
But no, I doubt they'll ever go there.
