This is pretty amazing. I loved the ending. Just because someone has a phobia doesn't mean they aren't a threat. I really do like this haptophobia!John.

wow--U managed to explain all those awkward little touches and looks in cannon and still keep it real! bravoZ! I really like your haptophobia john. =)

That was good! John's the type to not let a phobia stop him from doing what he needs to, and it's typical that Sherlock would realise and start 'breaking' him of it. After all, he proved John didn't have a limp by getting him to chase a cab in the first ep.

Thanks for sharing!

I love how you worked in all those little visual scenes that we are so familiar with! Well done!
