That's our Watson! Down the weather, death-tired and still putting others above his own comfort. Holmes shall better appreciate it and coerce him into rest before his good doctor collapse.

Well, considering how unobservant Holmes can be when it concerns his doctor, it might very well take a collapse for him to see it. ^^

Aw, hope you get better soon dear! I think we can all sympathize with what you and Watson are going though. Thanks for the read :*

Thanks, I hope so too... :)
Watson and I need a good few days of rest. ;)

Poor Watson, determined to solider through, because that's who he is. I hope Holmes takes one look at him and sends him off to bed with some hot tea (or maybe a whisky) and lots of blankets. :)

I'm sorry to hear you had such an awful month! March is almost here--surely it will be better.

Hopefully Holmes it not too wrapped up in his newest case to miss Watson's bad health!

I fear March is not going to be much better - the biggest wave of influenza is still to come! oO

:( Poor Watson! Hopefully Holmes will both see and observe, and give him a rest!

Originally that was planned for the ending, but when I reached the moment for Watson to open the door I already had over 200 words and so a caring Holmes did not fit in the ficlet anymore. XD

Poor Watson! He's soldiering on as always and suffering even more for doing so. Hopefully Holmes will take Watson's exhaustion and ill-health into account, and have him help on this next case by doing something that requires Watson to sit quietly reading by the fire-side, with a nice pot of tea nearby.

I'm so sorry to hear you've been ill. It's been a bad month for colds, flus, and general ick. Feel better soon!

alaylith March 1 2015, 08:14:45 UTC

Watson's too clever for that - he would immediatly see through it and be affronted when Holmes does that. ;)

No, I think the most effective way for Holmes to get Watson to rest would be to say "Please". ^.^

Yeah, it's horrible at the moment with the sicknesses. One school was even closed down last week for a few days, because half of the students and teachers were sick. oO

Yikes! It's been a bad year for sicknesses, but it sounds like you're getting hit worse than most. I hope you can get lots of rest and that you (and everyone else) feels better soon. Threaten to cough all over your bosses if they make you work while sick! ;-)
