It apparently has the same effect on Sherlock, as well.<\/p>\n<p>We never do get any details on how Captain John Watson of the Fifth Northumberland Fusiliers was wounded in action. But from this exchange alone, it\u2019s clear the situation was extremely serious. He was badly wounded, nearly died, and developed PTSD- Sherlock had himself earlier pointed out that the original circumstances of John\u2019s injury must have been \u2018traumatic\u2019, and he meant\u00a0<em>emotionally<\/em>\u00a0traumatic, not just violent and painful. The blunt earnestness of John\u2019s response even trips up\u00a0<em>Sherlock<\/em>\u00a0for a second or two, and he\u2019s just been ranting and raving about not understanding why a woman would care about her stillborn baby after fourteen years. This also works as a tearjerker in hindsight if you recall \u2018Please God, let me live\u2019 whenever John is genuinely in physical danger elsewhere in the series.<\/p>\n<p>Pretty much everyone in the room agrees that in your last moments, you would think about the people you love the most. John apparently had<em>\u00a0no one<\/em>\u00a0to think about when he was close to dying. He really must have been lonely even before he returned from Afghanistan.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I hate you for making this post because it\u2019s the best I\u2019ve read on this subject and\u00a0it<em> hurts.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/66.media.tumblr.com\/48598d5b440d29f82906316c1abb1d71\/tumblr_inline_midmqyJiO21qz4rgp.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><img src=\"https:\/\/66.media.tumblr.com\/90c21342a17d5a54d75eca42ab5f47ee\/tumblr_inline_mp2r95FHAF1qz4rgp.gif\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>justonelasttrick: aj-watson: heyassbuttyourethepotatoone: The first time you see it, it can hit you really hard, especially since Sherlock is on a total roll\u00a0and\u00a0John\u00a0delivers the line \u201cplease God, let me live\u201d in a way where you can be forgiven for not being sure if it\u2019s serious or snark.
