theleftpill:whenisayrunrun:WHY ARE YOU BREAKING MY HEART SHERLOCK HOLMES?!?! :’(This has come across my dash a couple of times the last few days, and I keep having the same reaction - Right now I’m working on a show about heroin addiction, and a dominant point in almost every scene is how the addicts physically need to take a minimum amount of heroin just to keep from getting violently ill - they “maintain” to not get “dope sick.” That’s the part of addiction where the drug takes over the body and it almost doesn’t matter how badly you want to get off it - the alternative is, in the moment, worse.Which is where Sherlock is in the first gif. John’s comment at first feels justifiably derisive and angry, but understanding that Sherlock is feeling not just a craving for a high but a real physical distress, real physical pain, the comment becomes insensitive and blind because yes, Sherlock really does need another hit right now. And it’s all there on his face and it rips my heart up each time I see it.@theleftpill i’m physically in pain processing all these new insights, poor sherlock :’( -- source link
