My woobie Sherlock!!1

Hm, I like Sherlock even though I'm a Lestrad fan. Sherlock's not evil. He's rather helpfull actually. He's not even that rude. It seems that he's just not your type of character, but calling him evil is a plain headcanon.
The stuff with Moriarty is not that illogical compared to season 3. Haha.
All the best wishes with the illness.

But I mean… he *drugs* John, a veteran with PTSD and then puts his feet up on the table while watching him afraid for his life. Then he makes John watch him splatter against a sidewalk. Then doesn't tell him he’s not dead for two years though he told every hobo in London. Then makes him think they’re about to die to force to him forgive him for those other things. Then he and Mary team up to bully and victim-blame him into forgiving her because he somehow "subconsciously" knew she was an assassin (bullshit.) He deserves better than both of these people. (Also, lol, "Johnlock". The only plausible way I could see them getting together is if Sherlock rapes John in his sleep in order to study anal tearing in gay sex without lubrication and when John finds out he laughs and goes "Oh, you scamp!" and forgives him immediately.)

The bit about non-con sounds strange. And scary. Definitely dark fic scary.

Well, some people hate Johnlock, it happens...

I have a different perspective on Sherlock's character.

They're friends after all. 'Tell me who your friends are and I tell you who you are'. So what does it tell about John.

I've read several fics with that premise, where Sherlock rapes John for an experiment and John eventually forgives him. It fits very well with the Sherlock of canon.

What turned me off the series in the end was when John started to become like Sherlock. They hinted it during series two with John not being very nice to his girlfriends under Sherlock's influence. John realises he's started to become a "a bit not good" as Mrs Hudson put it.

By series three John's gone so far down the rabbit hole that he marries an assassin and doesn't leave her when he finds out, because Sherlock thinks it's okay. I dislike the turning of John. He was supposed to be the entry point for the viewer to hold onto. The way he let Sherlock push him around in series one could be explained by his PSTD. Now he's lost that function. He's too much like Sherlock for me to find sympathetic.

[solticisekf]

Huh, that's an interesting perspective.

Yeah, I hope his girlfriends drop him like a hot potato, it's impossible to date John when he's with Sherlock.

I think John marries her because she's pregnant? And he loves her? I'm a bit hazy on Season three, I watched it by bits and pieces. Honestly I'm just surprised that everybody in the show is ok with her shooting Sherlock. And if she didn't intend to kill him, could'n she shoot him in a less dangerous place? The whole assassin thing is ridiculous in my opinion. I mean, what are the odds?

John killed the guy in the first ep, so he never was a simple doctor in the show. He's not an assassin but he doesn't shy away from the dark.

I think to me it's a matter of Sherlock being free to act as he likes, and others choosing to interact with him or ignore him. Kinda? It's their choice. He has all the rights to be an arse. Or something.

Ultimately he means well. He catches criminals, hates when people are murdered (the Bombs episode), he even was nice to that kid in the Wedding episode. He made a great Best Man speech in that episode too... I'm not sure if he was genuinely sorry for drugging John but he won't do it again seeing how it pissed off John. He helped Irene (that was unexpected). He shot Milverton apparently for John's sake? (So that Mary is not arrested? He did it knowing that he'd be prosecuted. It's all illogical.)

I don't really understand John's character beyond the obvious, so it's all Sherlock this and Sherlock that for me, as you see. 😁

Liking/disliking characters is so subjective. I know that because I dislike some characters that are popular and are shown as good and admirable.
