Um. Most people don't react well when their friends pretend to commit suicide. Especially not ex-soldiers who are probably still suffering from PTSD, and who probably think they contributed to said suicide.

So. Do you want book!Watson, or do you want human!Watson?

[(Anonymous)]

Not react well, sure. But for the very first reaction to be "RAR! JOHN SMASH!!!" is so far from real I wouldn't call it human.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, that reaction doesn't seem very believable to me. That said, if we're talking Sherlock, there are plenty of things that don't seem very realistic to me about their relationship, so I wouldn't be all that surprised if the show (and fics) went there.

I don't know what you're seeing, but I see a single punch as fairly understandable and forgivable. I'll be surprised if the writers don't actually go that route.

Me too. If someone I really really cared about faked their own suicide and then showed back up in my life, I feel that I'd be VERY VERY angry. Angry enough to probably hit them or throw something at them.

Not because I'm remotely abusive or anything of that caliber, but because someone I cared for and trusted not only lied to me, they manipulated my feelings by doing such a thing, and that's pretty rage inspiring.

Now, not everyone would react that way, but I don't see it as 'abusive' or 'over the top' to have such a reaction in that kind of situation.

Book Watson was perfectly human, tyvm. Victorian men didn't make a casual habit of fainting.

Why is anger and aggression "human" and shock, relief and joy 'inhuman'?
