When John insists he's wrong he opens his mouth, as if he's going to say something, to argue back, but then John suggests something. He'd not even thought about it, not included it in his choices. It wasn't supposed to be an option after all.
"Is that all they said?" He asks, tone hard, eyes looking over John's head to those watching them now. There's murmuring and sounds people who want to tell John just why Sherlock isn't a Ranger, but Mycroft is still there as well. They don't want to get in trouble after all.
"It doesn't matter, this isn't about me, John, this is about you." Any other time he'd love the attention, but not this. After all it was about John finding someone he connected with, it wouldn't be him. He knew it already. It was a lost cause from the very start.
He's an utter twat, John, that's why he's not a Ranger. No one can stand him.
