I have no idea how I missed this, but I'm very glad you posted this link with your sequel.
It always seemed unbelievable to me (even before I cottoned to slash) that Holmes would contact Watson to meet him in LAST if they'd previously been out of touch for many years (not only during Holmes's years in America, but the retirement years in Sussex). It makes complete sense if they had frequent contact (platonic or otherwise).
I love your theory ... that the trip to America was as much for their own safety as for King & country. A painful scene, but beautifully done. Am off to read the sequel so I can smile again. Thanks Daylyn.
