roadswewalk:ivyblossom:the-blue-carbuncle:asherlockstudy:Do you get a weird feeling of emptiness or awkwardness when you watch this scene? That’s because it’s intentional, both the position of the actors regarding the sofa and Benedict Cumberbatch’s acting slightly uncomfortable; Sherlock wanted to sit next to John, he even probably hoped in an invitation by an once again clueless John, but couldn’t dare take the initiative to sit by his side, like younger Sherlock most likely would. This is a regression in their relationship clearly, but it works simultaneously as a confirmation of Sherlock’s feelings, since we can easily see that Sherlock needs to be closer to John, a need that isn’t burning or source of discomfort between platonic friends.he doesn’t even take his coat off, like…..this hurts on every level and i must admit that the moment I saw Sherlock’s look I got tears in my eyes because of how obvious his pining is. hashtag that feeling when you come over to watch a video message from your very new boyfriend’s recently-deceased wifehashtag this could go badly wronghashtag imma keep my coat on just in caseIt’s Mary’s side of the sofa and he can’t / won’t / isn’t-sure-if-it’s-okay-to sit there.Oh and that look Sherlock gives John (who doesn’t see it) when she says “I know what you could become”… Despite some unfortunate production choices, this scene kills me, especially this revision of it. source link
