Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Just in case you needed a bit sadness (this is why I love the show so much. There is no coincidence. Never).

A little bit of sadness is always needed.

I'm utterly pleased and much looking forward to his fanfics and to his further comments 
Eventually everyone will support Johnlock. Independent OSAJ Affiliate
... but there may be some new players now. It’s okay. The East Wind takes us all in the end.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
The Internet knows it is not bromance.
Found this on TV Tropes, where the trope "Aborted declaration of love" is explained:
"Happens in Sherlock, when Sherlock and John are on the tarmac and Sherlock has something he wanted to tell him always, but cuts off with a joke in order to preserve John's happiness with Mary."

Lovely find. 
We should print t-shirts: "I don't believe in bromance".

Well, it is blatantly obvious.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Maybe this little observation about TEH from TVTropes can cheer you up:
"The old DVD seller's regular doctor is Dr. Verner, whom Watson sold his practice to in the original stories to move back into Baker Street with Sherlock."

I'm all for it. Who is taking care of the design?

I am not very creative in this regard. Any volunteers?

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Truth comes out of the mouths of babes! 
-----------------------------------
I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

This warmed up my heart this morning. It´s poetry in prose.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Oh yes... I always wondered about the hallway and its two different colours.
(And on a completely different note: Is it just me or are the only two people who don't call Mycroft Mycroft Janine and Mycroft's/Sherlock's mother...?)
