*grabby hands*
When Sherlock notices that everyone is crying at his speech and he says a little panicked “John?!” before asking if he did it wrong – oh, my heart.
John, everyone is crying and that usually means I’ve said something horrible.
John, I tried so hard to do this right why didn’t…
You’ll see Mycroft sitting at the lectern position in the Mind Palace, above Sherlock. Completely unreachable. John just sort of… appears there. Seeps in, stands as Sherlock’s equal. He doesn’t lay on pressure to perform perfectly, as Mycroft seems to do in Sherlock’s manifestation. John asks simple questions that encourage Sherlock to think in more natural patterns. John allows Sherlock to be human. Mycroft expects what appears to be nothing less of immediate omniscience and mastery.
Sherlock is still so very much the little brother to Mycroft. Competitive because he obviously internally idolizes Mycroft’s mind. Sherlock is a inferiority complex wrapped in a superiority complex, and unsure of which to succumb to. The alienation of superiority, or the vulnerabilities of inferiority.
Sherlock has never been treated like an equal, within such intimate boundaries.
John isn’t as brilliant as Sherlock, his intellect not as broad, but John has never put himself or allowed Sherlock to coin their relationship under anything else than equality. John is consistent in softly nudging Sherlock to be a better man.
