A/N: Based on this line: "Not one of your cases, Watson — mental, not physical. All right; come if you want to."

It had been two long weeks of Watson being wordlessly bored and frustrated by my immersion in my studies, otherwise I would have sent Soames away unsatisfied. However, I have long been powerless to deny that look of enthusiasm on Watson's face, although I do enjoy teasing him that I might leave him behind – as if I ever would!

Watson underestimates himself. It is not just his wife to whom those in distress are drawn – Watson himself is a great help in times of need. That is why I was so pleased to have him with me on this case, not just to help, but in case I should have to deliver bad news to Mrs. St. Clair.

A/N: Oh look, I managed to get Holmes/Watson into this one.

I have often declared myself an idiot once an obvious solution to a mystery has revealed itself, but I have never meant it more than I did in Birlstone, when I half-woke Watson and recognised his expression of unguarded affection at the sight of me. How could I have missed that he feels for me as I feel for him?

Wonderful. A pleasure to read as always, and extremely insightful for such short works.

Thank you!

Thank you! I've had so much fun with these - it seems insane that there's only 3 left to do.
