In the 'john calls sherlock a freak' fanfic, what could be the reason behind John's statement?
It could be that Sherlock's disregard for danger during their investigations made John feel like he was too reckless. John, being more down - to - earth, might see Sherlock's fearless approach as abnormal or 'freakish'. For example, when Sherlock jumps into dangerous situations without thinking about the consequences, it might annoy John to the point where he uses such a harsh term.
Maybe John was frustrated at Sherlock's eccentric behavior. Sherlock often acts in ways that are outside of normal social norms, like his extreme focus on cases and disregard for basic social niceties. This could have led John to lash out and call him a 'freak' in a moment of exasperation.
Perhaps John was having a bad day and Sherlock's usual quirks, which he normally tolerates, became too much for him. Sherlock has many habits like his strange experiments in the flat or his lack of personal space awareness. On this particular day, John's patience ran out and he snapped, calling Sherlock a freak.
