In all fairness, I think in canon Holmes only once showed genuine care and when he did, it was because Watson got shot. To quote Watson: "It was worth a wound; it was worth many wounds; to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation." (source: "The three Garridebs" (and a bit of Wikiquote))

Nice to "see" you online though - I used to run a site for certain Saracen, that's why I wondered. :)
