So This Is What Emptiness Feels Like.

so this is what emptiness feels like.

Do you ever think of Holmes alone at Baker Street after Watson's marriage and. And. And Watson's things are gone. Watson is gone, and there is just this aching gap around Holmes in the flat. The dust has not yet covered the space on the shelf where Watson's books used to be. Half of Holmes's home is gone, and he cannot even run his finger along the edge of the pain because there will only be one plate on the breakfast table tomorrow (and tomorrow and tomorrow), but you can't cut yourself on empty space.

Abruptly woken up to the electric guitar version of Beethoven's 5th symphony on The Gloria Scott episode at 3:45am. I love being alive :3

Seeing fanart of a character being drawn as skinny when they're not supposed to be SKINNY is the most enraging thing ever, especially when said character was only skinny because of a bad period of their life and yes I am talking about my guy Watson who did not suffer during the war and come back to be REHABILLITATED and become HEALTHY by gaining weight he SHOULD NOT have lost just to be drawn looking extra skinny when, in fact, beefcake Watson is the best and healthiest and happiest version of Watson. Holmes and Mrs Hudson would have been going out of their way to make sure that this poor traumatised doctor was being fed, please don't dismiss their good work.

Yes i can see this too

Watson is not getting as many ig "serious" moments as opposed to the others. He isn't getting as much development anymore. I cannot tell if this is intentional or not but he seems to just be more present focused as opposed to future focused. He is just thinking about the present and how to have fun or just act in the present and isn't considering the future as much.

He is drinking a lot more too. Hopefully this will be a cool moment to give him proper development and growth. I hope they comment on thsese things in show.

I think I have one issue, albeit small, with Sherlock & Co.

I'm starting to grow tired and frankly a bit annoyed by how John is portrayed in comparison to Sherlock and Mariana.

He's just constantly dumb-ified, doesn't "help", only helps by mistake and complains, and does he really add anything to the adventure any more? Except fancy words once in a while, it's mostly him going against Sherlock and narrating.

Mariana and Sherlock seem to grow further and further away from him. Perhaps, if I were to consider this purposeful, it's John's way to be noticed.

Maybe I'm understanding it wrong, maybe my interpretation is incorrect. But that's how I see it, and I feel that it is important to share different perspectives.

I do not mean any hate to the podcast at all, in fact I love it and follow it every week. It was just a thought.
