sherfu-cked:
what boggles my mind is that all of sherlock’s reactions during the wedding are nowhere near platonic and yet the general public seems to think so. like. no matter how close i am to my best friend, i will never react that way? i won’t say “into battle” like it’s something that is comparable to literal war, i won’t look like i’ve lost something so big, i won’t call my insufferable brother as some sort of escapism, i won’t look so heartbroken when i deliver the news that they are pregnant, and most of all i won’t leave the wedding early? it can be just me but the way i see it it’s just… also, the way the show was going to downplay it by using mrs. hudson’s own best friend’s leaving… i simply refuse to believe what is being pushed onto me because i have my own observations and i stand by it
It’s the heteronormativity. It causes a certain blindness.
