    Summary

    'I waited patiently for him to gather the strength to lay a grand confession unto me. He shifted uncomfortably in his seat and when he spoke, he addressed the roaring hearth.
    “I wish to be cuddled.”

    There was a beat of silence, the crackle of the flames prominent in the room.

    “You want to cuddle.” I echoed.

    “No Watson, you misunderstand me. I wish to be cuddled.”'

    “It is only natural that you should be out of practice,” I said. “It will come back to you.”
    Holmes looked at me in surprise, as if he had forgotten I was there.
    “Your violin. It has been a long time, to be sure, but you have many more years of experience behind you.”
    His lips formed a slight smile that did not reach his eyes. “If only it were that simple.”

    Summary

    Watson has not been able to escape the heat in a decade.

    It is always there - the fever, the humidity, the ache, plaguing his mind and the soothing blue sky when Summer rolls itself through the window.

    It always comes back to the heat.

    Summary

    Amusingly, I’d realized that he used my perceived comfortability with touch to outsource touching that may be required of himself. He’d have me greet unfamiliar Scotland Yard officials with a firm handshake or a pat on the arm so that he was free to stand stiffly by my side or begin climbing over a crime scene. He’d introduce me immediately to clients so that I could greet them as was proper, leaving him to perch on his chair with his fingers steepled or circle them like some great bird. With myself in tow, he was given permission to touch others less.

    However, he’d continued to touch me more.
