Now I haven't watched Season 3 yes (like only 8 minutes into the first episode), I couldn't bring myself to...word has it that JOHN GETS MARRIED? to like, a woman? erurifrmifrf like what was this sir, a rebound marriage? now like i said i havent really watched season 3 so idk maybe he does love her or whatever 2 years is quite some time to fall in love with someone (but settle down with them? debatable.)
Now look here, okay, seconds into the 1st ep Season 3 John's therapist asks him to get it all out and he says
there's a lot of things i wish i had told him
tell them to me. get it off your chest
make me compete with sherlock.
I don't think John was the only one though...Sherlock remembers the name of an obscure Mr. Bhattacharya who was courting Mrs. Hudson in the cafe downstairs when he had only seen him in passing but jumbles up all of John's girlfriends' names.
Sherlock is dismissive of all of John's relationships.
He third-wheels John and Sarah on their circus date, then the whole Black Lotus fiasco goes down, Sarah clubs an attacker, is then threatened to be sacrificed, subsequently saved by Sherlock. Next episode, John spends the night at Sarah's in the morning Sherlock has very conveniently forgotten her name, of course.
like, niuernuergr youre telling him he doesnt genuinely do this on purpose because he wants John all to himself? iuiwne think again.
