i think i may have just realized why john always wears long sleeves
Jeremy Brett didnโt have to do that for us but he did <3
[id: the โwhich is gayerโ meme. At the top it reads โwhich is gayer?โ On the left hand side, there is the rainbow pride flag and underneath it reads โbeing gayโ. On the right hand side is an image of Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes. He is standing in front of the fireplace with the poker resting on his shoulder. Underneath it reads โwhatever the fuck Jeremy Brett holmes has going onโ /end id]
spoon vs comic formatting (aka i completely disregard it)
And the thing about, โHe saved my life but he couldnโt touch me,โ is that it absolutely goes both ways. Before they meet, there is the implication that they have both been struggling and lack a personal companionship with emotional commitment and support to see them through. The possibility that they have considered suicide is introduced, even if they arenโt necessarily suicidal in nature.
Meeting each other quite literally saves each other, gives them what they both need for fulfillment, connection, and support. But the one aspect missing is the actualization of deeper affection, something expressed by touch. They saved each other, but canโt touch one another. They both are emotionally committed, very much life partners, and yet canโt touch the person they saved, the person who saved them. Each feels that they are not allowed this; each feels it is not an aspect of their partnership that would be cherished and reciprocated on the same level. โHeโs straight,โ or โhe doesnโt feel things that way.โ And neither of them realize they are mirroring each other even in this.
let me tell you I DIED
John just wants the world to go away so this is how heโll cope.
