Summary
As part of the preface to His Last Bow, Watson wrote: “The friends of Mr. Sherlock Holmes will be glad to learn that he is still alive and well, though somewhat crippled by occasional attacks of rheumatism. He has, for many years, lived in a small farm upon the Downs five miles from Eastbourne, where his time is divided between philosophy and agriculture. During this period of rest he has refused the most princely offers to take up various cases, having determined that his retirement was a permanent one.”
What he did not write was that Watson himself also lived in this small cottage with Holmes, and when these occasional attacks of rheumatism occurred he was always there to help his lover through the pain.
This is the story of one such instance.

Summary
Its exactly three years since the incident in the morgue. A lot has changed in Sherlock's life over that time, John has moved back in, he is helping raise Rosie, and he has gotten clean. However on this particular anniversary of one of the most physically and emotionally traumatic experiences of his life, Sherlock is struggling to get his emotions under control, and long repressed feelings threaten to emerge once again.
Ties up, and connects, the loose ends from season 4 such as, the letter John gave Sherlock, Norbury, did John and Rosie move back into 221b, what happened to Sherlock and Molly's friendship after *that scene*, and most importantly: Johnlock.

a study in touch by lesqueers

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.
