Author's Summary:
The first time Sherlock kisses him, John keeps his eyes open, and so does Sherlock, and mostly, he wonders what Sherlock could possibly be up to. There'll be some logic to this. Some ridiculous experiment about body warmth or respiratory rates or testing a new way of picking pockets. Sherlock does the unimaginable for bizarre reasons, but behind it, there's always logic and curiosity. Sometimes, it just takes him a while to explain it to John.

Review:
This is well written and clever, with Sherlock making things far more complicated than they need to be and John having a hard time figuring out why Sherlock changed the rules of their relationship with no notice.

I particularly liked the phone call with Mycroft, John getting a clue about the series of 'restaurant critiques', and the way a single miscalculation can throw off all Sherlock's careful machinations.

It's sweet and funny with great dialog, and it's a terrific read.

My review's shorter than usual, because I'm feeling under the weather today, but if you haven't read this 2010 story, don't let it keep you from giving this a read!
