I needed to write something about yesterday’s episode, so here’s a short something:
Affrimation – When Sherlock comes home from the hospital he finds John moved back in and ready to claim what is his.

John was sitting at the table eating lunch when Sherlock came into the flat. “Get a proper discharge this time?” he asked, not looking up from his laptop.
Sherlock waved some papers. “As good as can be expected.” He came and sat down across from John. He could feel the man deducting as he looked him over. He’d know John had moved back in, hadn’t been sleeping well, hadn’t spoken to Mary, but was still wearing the ring and keeping up appearances. Chewing his food, he met Sherlock’s eyes and took the ring off his finger, setting it on the table between them.
Reaching over, Sherlock took John’s hand, studying his eyes. Putting down his fork, John brought Sherlock’s hand to his mouth, lips just brushing the back of his hand. He visibly shivered at the touch.
