Summary
"So, there John was left standing. If he knew where Sherlock was going, he would have gone after him. But maybe this was a hint that Sherlock was waiting for John to take. No matter how many people in the past told them that they were a great team, or even Mary’s video, he and Sherlock fell apart. Or got pulled apart. The correct answer seemed to be one got pushed away, though."
***
When Sherlock starts pushing John away after the death of Mary, John is ready to get to the bottom of the issue. Even if the conversation has to happen with Sherlock almost bleeding out in the kitchen.
