My eyes are up here, John
See, the thing is, as a short person who has to look up at just about everybody, I have never found my eyes straying down from a conversation partner’s face to linger at their throat, mouth, jawline or shoulders unless they were, you know, worth looking at for some reason.
So unless John finds Sherlock’s scarf or coat collar unspeakably compelling, it really does open up the question of why he looks at them so often.
I am not attempting to imply anything, but this is something that’s had question marks circling my head ever since the first episode.
