LFS - Watson's wound caused partial impotence

[moon-watcher99.livejournal.com]

I'm going to feel really stupid when this is found, I just know it...

I'm looking for an ACD era fic that involves Watson's leg wound. Holmes realizes after watching Watson's limp that Watson wasn't just shot in the leg, but partially in the groin. Because of this, Watson finds it difficult to enjoy intimacy, and feels like he has nothing to offer a relationship. It's slash, but only just - it is definitely implied that Watson is primarily heterosexual but he allows Holmes to attempt to comfort him sexually. Could someone please locate this so I can stop driving myself crazy and start kicking myself for not realizing where it is? (I'm sure I will be.) Thanks so much. :D

Oh my gooooood! I know which fic you're talking about but I can't remember where I read it or even the name of the fic! I'll be searching for it now too, and let you know if I find anything!

I knew I'd read this one before, too! And that the link was on the Sacrilege website. But that site doesn't seem to be working? I was able to access it via the Wayback Machine and I believe this is the story you're looking for?

Yup, that's it. Okay, I feel a little better knowing that the original page disappeared. Saving now to avoid THIS agravation again. Thanks loads.
