Yeah, I'm always trying to work around the concept of Watson's marriage in later fics. Sometimes it's fine to ignore it (especially since, I believe, it's only mentioned once), but it does create lovely angst potential. I think Watson's decision here is very spur-of-the-moment (but I also think he would have stood by it and followed Holmes anywhere). But Holmes couldn't allow Watson to ruin his life.
