On the relationship between John and Sherlock [x]

#I don’t even care if this is the gayest thing I have literally ever heard #this is also the best friendship #because who’s perfect? who is? what two people enter in to a friendship and don’t hate each other sometimes? #don’t argue and fight and take jabs and punch each other in street alleys? #they desperately needed each other and they were both such fiercely independent people before that it’s almost embarrassing #but at the same time they’re thinking…this is what I’ve been missing my entire life #sherlock’s been so alone and john feels so disconnected and useless #they breathed life in to each other #no friendship is ever going to be perfect but at the end of the day sherlock will make john forget his cane and john will tell sherlock w… #when something he’s said was a bit not good #because they just clicked like a magnet and sheet metal #they slid together so perfectly that water wouldn’t even get through the space between their souls #no one ever understands how they work - how normal little john watson ever puts up with sherlock #how brilliant sherlock holmes would ever take a plain ‘pet’ as moriarty calls him #but even they don’t understand how they work and they will never question it because they’ve found out what it feels like to not be alone #and that feeling…that feeling is worth living and dying for #feelings blog

#all the shit I wanted to say but absolutely couldn’t. and I agree that this is just the gayest thing. but Sherlock and John kind of defy any sort of cut-and-dried description of sexuality and relationships. which is sort of the point. everyone defies cut and dried descriptions of sexuality and relationships. so it doesn’t bother me that fandom is like OMG TEH SLASH MAKE THEM A HAPPY GAY COUPLE!. cuz hey that’s the business of whoever wants it. fandom and fan fiction is all about wish fulfillment. but I really love the relationship we’re given in canon just because it’s a swirl of confusion and indefinability and perfection. sometimes your soulmate can be your best friend. and you don’t ever have to kiss or have babies or make love. but that person still completes you. that person still makes you functional in this screwed up world. and that’s a wonderful thing.

Wow, hey, this is perfect.
