When it comes to what we do, the only thing that matters to me is our partnership.

Sick Boy & Renton ; through the years

— We’ll get through this thegither, and he walks into the stair, compelling Renton to follow.
— Ah know that, mate, Renton says, almost distracted under the luminosity of the stars, till the heavy door, closing behind them on the spring, extinguishes their light.

I did not kill Michael Rowan… which is apparently the name of the club we’ll be forming.

I’m forty-six, and I am fucked. I don’t have a home. I don’t even have anywhere that I think of as home. I don’t really know anyone, don’t really have anyone that I think of as a friend. I look out on the world and I see strangers. And you … you are the … you have the distinction of being – I don’t know … the least unfamiliar – that’s it.

I was dying when we first met. I mean, I looked well enough. Just got out of rehab and all that. Thought that I knew everything, but I didn’t. I didn’t realize how much how much work I would have to put in and how much time it would take. But most of all, I didn’t realize that things could get better. And that I could actually be…

I wanted to thank you. Don’t. I wanted to thank you for everything you’ve done for me over the last six years. Sherlock– I was dying when we first met. I mean I looked well enough – just got out of rehab and all that. Thought that I knew everything, but I didn’t. I didn’t realize how much work I would have to put in, and how much time it would take…but most of all, I didn’t realize that things could get better. And that I could actually be ha–…
Yes, I was dying. And no one could see it but you. You saved my life, Joan.

Watson and I feel that, in order to do our best work, the chemistry needs to be right.

#see THIS is what makes Sherlock in Elementary so unique#a lot of versions of Sherlock#or pretty much Any modern crime drama would have the brilliant detective calling the other detectives ‘idiots’#or ‘amateurs’ or basically insulting their intelligence and ability as detectives#here Sherlock is both acknowledging their skill as detectives and crediting that to their Captain’s leadership#while also acknowledging that he can’t work with them because THEY don’t like him#all the while he is accepting as fair because he’s self-aware to know he’s not easy to work with#there are ways to depict an anti-social genius without being a huge asshole to everyone#and this is it
