I would love love love for them to hate the people the other person dates and undercover work would just kill me dead with joy.
I love that there is so much we don't know about their backstories and I think you're absolutely right that their self-directed anger brings them together so very well. One of my favorite moments is when Watson remarks that there's no mirrors in the house, that Sherlock can't even look at himself because of what he'll see, and I think that's something Watson feels on a similar level. I really enjoy that they're both in this place of misery, that there's not much worse for them to get, and that they're almost in a sink or swim situation together. And, that Watson finds she likes investigating on some level, beautiful.
I already started writing an AU after watching the pilot twice, because this has dumped a whole lot of feelings on me. I can only hope that the show remains as character focused as the pilot.
