Sherlock detested anything to do with feelings ..yet he understood why people had them.
You see relationships in Sherlocks mind had only to do with the fact that people needed to reproduce or feel like they meant something which of course in Sherlocks mind he didn't need to worry about.
He was a man who was married to his work as he put it. He didn't need other people, what he needed was answers ..answers are what he needed he didn't care how people thought of him , his life was only to figure things out to put his brain to use ..why else should he have been given one for?
So Sherlock used his brain ..something he thought others should do more understood things that other people believed that they were unable to do Sherlock knew better ..he knew if people only thought ..about more important things instead of filling them with useless twaddle maybe they could.
Hints ..hints in peoples faces clothes emotions postures anything, hints were everywhere! Sherlock was getting off a train after coming back from a case in which an old lady had been poisoned. Wasn't that hard you see because Sherlock saw differently than a lot of people.
Sherlock only had to look to his right and see a young man *shoes-fancy but started to come apart obviously the man had a high position obviously not any more* *hmm a slight dent on his finger where a wedding ring had once been obviously only been taken off recently-shows that he most likely had an affair with a colleague* *His hair slicked back worriedly in a panic and the man had a look of worry- obviously off to a job interview* *His fingernails slightly tinted with the oh so familiar signs of nicotine use that Sherlock was accustomed to.
Sherlock didn't consider himself higher then everyone else , he just wished they would open their eyes for once and see the world as it was.
As Sherlock collected himself as he continued on walking through the streets he noticed everything about the flutter of people surrounding him in London buying their shopping , chatting with friends ..he noticed who was having an affair, who had been sacked , who had problems with drink or been in a war or even who owned a dog or a the one thing Sherlock had noticed the most was that , even if people were dull and stupid in their own ways ..utterly ..boring ..they all were one thing which Sherlock was not ...
Happy
