Secret 1 - Sherlock Holmes, action heroes and sidekicks

[personal profile] transcriptanon 2013-09-21 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Picture is the 2009 film "Sherlock Holmes" with Robert Downey Jr. as Sherlock Holmes and Jude Law as John Watson. Sherlock and Watson are leaning against a wall, looking to the side cautiously. Sherlock is carrying a small gun and pointing it upwards. Watson is carrying a cane.]

Even though I totally love the whole "badass hero with badass sidekick" genre, it always distresses me to watch them. Because I'm constantly distracted by imagining how I'd mess up and be incompetent and start crying and get the hero killed (or worse, annoyed) if I were a sidekick.

And how I could never be a hero, because I wouldn't have the self-confidence to lead anyone in a dangerous situation, because I'd get them killed. And I couldn't trust anyone that way, anyway.

Secret because: This is a dumb thing to feel shitty about. 90% of ALL people couldn't do it either.
