We Sherlockians all know that this quote originated with Sherlock himself in The Sign of Four. But, the Sherlock Holmes novels don’t exist in BBC Sherlock’s universe. So, for the longest time I just assumed that Sherlock came up with the phrase in The Hounds of Baskerville at The Cross Keys pub, and that John’s “Spock” comment was just poking fun that Sherlock was being overly analytical and needed to calm down.
However, then I obviously remembered that the phrase was actually said by Spock in the 2009 film Star Trek. And that The Hounds of Baskerville takes place in 2011.
So, assuming that BBC Sherlock exists in a universe in which Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories don’t exist, Sherlock is actually quoting Spock (who coined the phrase) from the 2009 Star Trek film- not just coming up with something clever off the top of his head. And John recognizes that and calls him out on it. So this means that they’ve both seen the film. I’d wager that they saw it together. Sherlock doesn’t seem like much of a film buff, but he’d endure it if he saw it with John.
Meaning that at one point in time John and Sherlock had a Star Trek night.
That is all.
HEADCANON ACCEPTED

I am reading “The Return of Sherlock Holmes” and the story ‘Charles Augustus Milverton’ is soo slash!
Actually, a BIG part of the stories have several slash innuendos. But this story have really a lot! See it; is a very complicated case, and seeing no solution, Holmes takes a serious decision: make the role of a thief (or a vigilante in this case), stealing the documents of the villain, invading his house illegaly. Watson knows that Holmes’s career will be in danger if he be catched, so, his argument:
“- Well, I don’t like it; but I suppose it must be - said I. - When do we start?”
- You are not coming.
- Then you are not going - said I. - I give you my word of honour—and I never broke it in my life—that I will take a cab straight to the policestation and give you away unless you let me share this adventure with you.
- You can’t help me.
- How do you know that? You can’t tell what may happen. Anyway, my resolution is taken. Other people beside you have self-respect and even reputations.
Holmes had looked annoyed, but his brow cleared, and he clapped me on the shoulder.
- Well, well, my dear fellow, be it so. We have shared the same room for some years, and it would be amusing if we ended by sharing the same cell. You know, Watson, I don’t mind confessing to you that I have always had an idea that I would have made a highly efficient criminal. This is the chance of my lifetime in that direction.”
So, the two friends go invading the house. A little piece when Holmes takes the hand of Watson for help him:
“He seized my hand in the darkness and led me swiftly past banks of shrubs which brushed against our faces. Holmes had remarkable powers, carefully cultivated, of seeing in the dark. Still holding my hand in one of his he opened a door, and I was vaguely conscious that we had entered a large room in which a cigar had been smoked not long before.”
So, Holmes heard a noise, and he and Watson hidden. When Watson started thinking in freak out, this happens:
“I felt Holmes’s hand steal into mine and give me a reassuring shake, as if to say that the situation was within his powers and that he was easy in his mind.”
How more Sir Arthur Conan Doyle books I read, more hard I found myself shipping these two.
