I believe at one point you said that you had lost your mojo? CONGRATS, BB! YOU DEFINITELY GOT IT BACK! And this is coming from someone who is generally not a fan of spanking (or D/s in general) fics. But this. This. This was mind-bendingly hot.
I really loved this: It’s in the way Watson’s voice cracks on the please as he tries and fails to catch his breath; this is where one more touch of leather against over-sensitised skin would be too much. Those lines speak to the whole point of the fic, and I love how Holmes is so in tune with Watson that he just knows.
Also, I thought the ending was just wonderful, since I'm a romantic at heart. I love how the sex was so primal, but it's so clear that they care for each other. Also, I love how Watson thanks Holmes, because it was something that Watson had needed from him. And then this: Later that night Holmes tends to Watson’s abused rear, rubbing a soothing salve onto the raw skin with gentle fingers. I just love the tenderness there. It speaks volumes about their relationship. And I thought the last line was perfect, because it nicely rounds out the idea that it's "a question of timing."

So, in a word, brilliant! ♥
