Summary
A story about two men who can only meet in the absolute depths of the night.
This was entirely my headcanon, stemming from John comment pointing out "intimacy" (or the complexity of the connection) between Mycroft and Jim in The Reichenbach Fall episode.

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.
-
or; Dr. John Watson chronicles Sherlock Holmes' aversion to (and fondness for) physical touch over three decades.

Summary
Watson's feelings and actions before, during and after the Fall.
"“Dead, yes.” Holmes' hands fumbled as he looked for something on my desk. From there, he retrieved matches and lighted himself a pipe, making a gesture as if to ask whether I’d want one or not. I didn’t. “Who wants you dead, Holmes?”
For a moment, the room was silent except for the sound of Holmes’ inconsistent breathing and the one from my heart — this insistent, tumbling thing that sets itself upon it every time I see this man."

Holmes's and Watson's lives are fairly dangerous ones.
It's not exactly a stretch to think that they cared for each other's wounds as much as at times they had to tend to themselves.here few sketches of some of these occasions!
