Just Realized That The Reason I Wanna Be Left Alone In Complete Darkness And Silence Is Because I Grew

Eternal Sunshine AU || Sherlock finds out that John ‘erased’ him from his memory with a new controversial procedure at Baskerville after ending their relationship. Betrayed and angry, Sherlock retaliates by undergoing the same procedure, in order to forget John. But as he begins to loose each precious memory that he and John had with one another… Sherlock immediately regrets his decision.

Looking over to Sherlock, she sighed. “You were not supposed to see this. I’m terribly sorry, and I do apologize.” Her voice seemed to give off the impression she was anything but sorry. Rather, inconvenienced.

“I want to do it.” Sherlock repeated darkly. “John erased me for a reason, and if I can’t know WHY… then I want to forget him in turn.”

Stapleton furrowed her brow, setting the telegram down, “Our files are confidential Mister Holmes… so we can’t show you any statements or consultation records.” She paused, looking back up toward Sherlock. “Suffice it to say, Doctor Watson was… not happy, and he wanted to move on. We provided that possibility. I told him once that anything was possible here. I guess he lucked out; erasing someone or something from a person’s memory is surprisingly simple.” Stapleton explained. “Given the circumstances of this particular situation… I would be willing to perform the procedure on you. If you’re sure, that is.” She clarified. “It’s still considered experimental, but then again, almost everything we do here is.” She mused.

If you’ve never seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind… do yourself a favour and watch it. In my Top 3 movies for sure.

You can make Holmes and watson look like whatever you want. Anyone who says they have to be white/skinny/whatever is a loser. BUT. There is one super super important thing that you cannot ever change, which is that Watson has to be HOT. Doesn’t matter what he looks like as long as that man is a total dreamboat. If you make Holmes look cool and then make Watson a goofy looking dork, you are missing the point by a fucking mile. HOLMES is the goofy looking dork. Watson is the astonishingly handsome swoon-worthy hero in these stories and EVERYONE should have a crush on him.

John Watson, A Study in Pink

"life doesn't end when-" life has ended a billion times for me, you guys just don't suffer like I suffer

So i worked with veterans for a few years.

To me, John is absolutely reminiscent of a lot of the… slightly scarier vets? 

Like he absolutely is hyper vigilant

Like… people only picture that as like scared and eyes darting all over the place, panicky, but … it also manifests in a much… slower… more deliberate way of looking around. Walking into a room and taking a quick scan of it to pick out the best way to escape, the most likely looking people to start trouble, mood of the room so you know if you need to play it cool.

So he walks through the door, quick glare at everyone, then a forced smile as he loosens his posture and plays it cool. But the SECOND anything starts turning he isn’t remotely startled, just moves right towards that stack of beer bottles he noticed on his way in, palms it and positions himself where he needs to be in order to take someone out. When the situation cools he’s reluctant to put the bottle down, but he does it anyways. Either spends the rest of the evening hovering near the bottles or else purposely stays away from them, while being incredibly aware of how far away they are.

JOhn’s the type of vet that seems pretty much to be fine, but his family will say hes secretive and more intense than he used to be. 

John is the kind that stays completely calm and quiet while someone yells at him, but everything in the set of his jaw and the way he’s shifted his balance, screams out silently ‘please give me a reason, any reason, you have no idea who you’re picking a fight with’

i ADORE john but anytime i see a fic where he is nothing but sweet and understanding, all i can think is how much, to me, JOhn is playing the role of a civilian. He knows how to do it, and most people probably think he plays it flawlessly. 

(((sorry mycroft, you have no idea what you’re talking about. PTSD manifests in a lot of ways, and John’s particular version isn’t even rare))
