Yes. This. Sorry, loves, but I'm a steadfast Johnlock shipper. Can't help it.

I'm with you, Dragon. I've always maintained that John was "chosen" and that Sherlock wanted him to really like 221B so he would agree to move in immediately. Waiting was a polite gesture but it was also a bit of showmanship to wait until John gets there to open the door for the big "reveal". I think that was for the benefit for the audience, too. Cozy 221B is beloved of all Holmes fans and is almost a 'character' in it's own right. It had to be perfect. When we first tuned into the show, many of us were as anxious to see those digs as we were to meet the human characters.

And I said "dangerous" and here you are.
You. It's always you. John Watson, you keep me right.

Re: Favourite Sherlock/Benedict pictures
It's funny but for me the most beautiful thing about the pic is his hand.

Re: Favourite Sherlock/Benedict pictures
I guess I feel a bit more conventional about this pic, because his facial expression just cracks me up.

But the real question is: Why or from whom does he hide himself in this shed?

John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"
