#it takes an insane amount of pressure to make Sherlock Holmes admit he doesn’t know something #in fact probably the most powerful thing about this moment #is that sherlock is not bluffing. #His fallibility comes through just long enough to prove that he CAN be shaken – #John is exposed as his anchor.#Because if you’re stupid enough to haul anchor on Sherlock Holmes he capsizes. And it’s not woobie and sad – it’s lethal. #my otp is more badass than yours
Sorry if I consider this to be the ultimate Johnlock scene, platonic or sexual or whatever you want this relationship to be.
Earlier, Irene was asking if Sherlock seeing her naked made him feel exposed.
This.
This exposes Sherlock’s real feelings.
John’s life being threatened makes Sherlock more vulnerable than any naked woman ever could.
YES. YES.
