[ John realizes he's waiting on Sherlock to disagree with him, to call him an idiot again, or say he'll be in the way. He knows this is a personal thing for Sherlock, and may on some level realize it has to do with him as well. Mostly, though, he doesn't want to be told that he can be of no help because Sherlock doesn't want to share; he's afraid this is still just a game to the other man.
But the detective just tells him to watch out for himself, and John realizes he's letting out tension he didn't even know he was holding.
Fine. Good. ]
Fair enough.
[ He concedes to the advice and, by extension, Sherlock's direction. At least they seemed to be on the same page now. ]
