In Defense of John Watson.

I’m seeing a lot of people dissing John for being a doctor and not recognizing human bones, or being a soldier and asking “What is that?” about a drone with a grenade on it.  Can we please take a step back and stop criticizing his character, and take a few things into consideration?  And to do that, we need to take this away from television and into reality. 1. Despite a film crew’s lighting of the scene, the bottom of a well at night is dark.  John should not have been able to see his hand in front of his face.  He only had the occasional moonlight when the clouds parted to see where he was, and even then it would not be enough to give adequate lighting.  So he could tell that they were bones but he can’t just identify from a quick feel that they were human.  Also take into consideration that he just woke up from being drugged for how long?  His brain is going to be a bit fuzzy.  And then there’s the fear of finding out you’re chained to the bottom of a well that’s beginning to fill and your only hope of escape is a guy who is running around solving puzzles to save his crazy-ass homicidal sister who is the only person who knows where you are.  Cut John some slack, please.

2. You ever see something right in front of your face with your own two eyes and yet you still say “this can’t be happening, this isn’t real?”  I know I have, especially in regards to Trump being elected President.  I am about to buy a condo in Egypt because I’m that far in DeNile.  At any rate, a lot of people can see something and be so shocked that their brains short-circuit. You see what it is, you know what it is, but it is so horrifying that you don’t want to admit it or say it out loud because that makes it real.  John knows that’s a grenade.  He’s not stupid, he’s just experiencing disbelief that there is one flying into 221B.  He’s used to seeing them on battlefields, not in a central London flat.  A little PTSD kicks in at that moment, too, I’m sure.  I’ve watched enough combat vets react to gunfire on television to understand what’s going on in John’s head when he sees an explosive device right in front of his face.  Let’s also remember he was the one who reminded Sherlock that the shoes could be a bomb because in his experience bombs can be anything and with the recent events John was already in soldier mode by the time he made that remark.  Here we have John sitting around with Sherlock and Mycroft talking about their crazy sister, and while she may have held him at gunpoint recently there seems to have been a passage of time and he has relaxed again.  Now here’s a drone with a grenade on it and holy shit, did Mycroft just admit it was his design?  Didn’t see that coming, either.  But yes, John knows what it is, he just doesn’t want to say it, he doesn’t want to think that a bomb is right in front of him -- Sherlock says what’s in his head, that he has a child and will never get to say goodbye -- and this is way too real to be real.  It’s a defense mechanism of the brain and not stupidity on his part.  Again, cut him some slack.  If it had been me, I would have been pissing my pants and screaming.  

In conclusion, please be nice to John.  He’s had it rought for the last few years.

In A Scandal in Belgravia Sherlock says to Irene that "this is your heart and you should never let it rule your head" and I think that might just be why we didn't see John in Sherlock's mind palace

Sherlock: Did I get anything wrong?

John: Harry and me don't get on, never have. Clara and Harry split up three months ago and they're getting a divorce. And Harry is a drinker.

Sherlock: Spot on, then. I didn't expect to be right about everything.

John: Harry's short for Harriet.

Sherlock: Harry's your sister.

John: What exactly am I supposed to be doing here?

Sherlock: Sister!

John: No, seriously, what am I doing here?

Sherlock: There's always something.

Just started Sherlock today, I’m still not even fucking done with season 4 of Supernatural and I’m already watching something else that’s going to ruin my already non existent life. John and Sherlock are so cute together. I love how the first episode keeps talking about gays and people mistake john as his date. I’m already obsessed. Fuck my life
