Don’t ever try convincing me that Sherlock never feels sorrow for the suffering of other people. It may or may not be his only priority, but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t one, or that he doesn’t care. Look at his face upon witnessing the old lady’s death over the phone. Look at both Lestrade and John’s reactions. Lestrade is looking away at first, then immediately turns in toward Sherlock. And John - John immediately moves closer and reaches for Sherlock, needing to touch him or, failing that, the nearest substitute. Don’t tell me that John squeezing the back of the chair here wasn’t meant to be Sherlock’s shoulders, a reassuring hand on the back of his neck. He just didn’t know whether that would be all right or not, whether it would be welcome. But he instinctively knew that Sherlock needed comfort here. And look at his face: he did.
That’s why John says that Sherlock is the best man he ever knew, why Sherlock is his best friend, why, when he thought he was two seconds from his own death, it was an “of course” when he said that he forgave Sherlock. He knows that the moments when Sherlock tries to make himself look like a machine are the lie, not the other way around.
And Sherlock knows, obviously. He knows how much he can care: it’s why he tries so hard not to, but he’s not Mycroft. He fails at not caring quite regularly. He cares so much that it’s dangerous.
And Lestrade doesn’t reach for Sherlock because John already is, and he knows that there is nothing and no one else that Sherlock could ever need in a moment like that, or in any other moment, either.
"Holmes chuckled and wriggled in his chair, as was his habit when in high spirits."

PLEASE REBLOG if you can:
Posts with just this at the bottom are almost always STOLEN, REPOSTED work of other fans.
Does the photo you’re about to reblog look a little grainy? That’s because it’s a screencap of someone else’s gif, stuck up in a repost, with a link that earns the reposter some kind of credit with Amazon.
The names on these blogs change all the time. They spam reposts in all the tags of every major fandom. I’ve reported about eight of them to staff.
Not sure if it’s a reposting blog? Check the blog itself (not the link) first. I’ll bet you see tons of reposts all the way down.
These are not links to someone’s Etsy or Redbubble. These are just stolen posts being grabbed and used without permission as click bait.
I hope you can spread the word for your fandoms, too.
This!!!!! That link also means that it’s a monetized blog, meaning that not only is it ripping off people’s art, edits, etc, but that when you like or reblog the post, they make money from it!!!! Don’t support these thieves!!!

it’s true that Sherlock has a soft, genuine smile that only ever John gets to see
but John has the giggle, and he only giggles with Sherlock, and that bubbly bit of joy is all best things shared between them in one small bit of escaped laughter
It’s so true! When I’m writing, it feels so ooc to ever make reference to John Watson giggling, but it’s canon! This isn’t canon, but I fully believe it to be true: that Mary has never once heard that giggle!

I feel like we’re not talking about this enough
like, I think we often assume that at this time Sherlock kind of took John for granted, expected him to always be there, which to be fair it does often seem like
but it’s actually there in plain text that he actively misses him, even talks about it to Molly
he’s so attached to John it’s unbelievable
to be honest, I think we missed a lot of Sherlock’s feelings in s1-2 since it’s John’s point of view, it seems not much is actually going on with him and the only thing we really get to see is this
so I think there might have been so much more going on in his head than we really expect
