Perhaps I will allow Watson his underwear. Or a blanket which he can cower under and then be oddly comforted by Holmes' violin playing. And I have just decided that said handcuffs will be really, really good quality. Holmes made them himself and even he can't escape from them so there's no real point in trying, Watson.
I like that. That Watson would be so totally high and flushed with sucess that he just turns around and starts kissing and groping and since Holmes is already operating well outside the law, he's like "what the hell, Watson is pretty and this might bring him closer to really being on my side and if everyone consents and gets off why do I care?"
I am trying to decided whether that is more or less healthy than some variation on Stockholm syndrome. I suspect Watson actually giving up the law for the promise of power would be more healthy than fooling himself into liking his captor, so I shall go with the first. I would like to keep Watson's mind intact.
Of course I am writing the bodice-ripper. Although at this point I can promise only crossdressing and actual ripping of an actual bodice which is on Watson's person. Rather more literal than usual but I suspect it will be acceptable all the same.
Oh but I can blame you, Holmes. The 'complex tangle' is of your own creation, I am merely the poor soul tasked with being your chronicler, and, for reasons which ocassionally escape me, friend.
