(Warning sad) During the pool scene, when Sherlock says "People have died" and Jim yells "That's what people do.". Jim is talking about Sebastian, and had to comes to terms with his death. Yet Jim will never forget about the man who made him happy.
My heart aches.
OR....
Jim’s heart is aching because he knows he has to plan his fake death without his sniper ever knowing the truth.
For months and months prior to ‘the fall’, Jim spends his time with Sebastian, endlessly sending him hints about death and dying; how to overcome grief and move on with life.
So, when Jim shouts the words at Sherlock, with even more emotion than he had expected, it’s because in truth, he hates what he is about to do. He hates how much he knows Sebastian is going to hurt and hates that he’s going to have to live with that for the rest of his life.
He knows Sebastian is there, watching and listening, and he’s hammering home the point.
People die, it’s what they do.
No one is supposed to live forever, Tiger.
