[Juno nods as Watson speaks. If this Holmes character was really as good a detective as Watson said he was, then why would he need someone like Watson to stick around? Maybe to offer another perspective on certain things, yes, like how Juno needs Rita to help him look up stuff. But that's because Rita's a good secretary and can actually use a computer for things other than Solitare.

However, the way that Watson is expressing his fondness for the man...Juno has a gut feeling that there's something a bit more personal between the two. Not married, as far as he can tell.

I understand. It's a noble thing, striving to do good in a world that seems set on running everyone over. Hell, I've tried to do the same more than a few times.

[Sorry, Watson. Were you hoping for something more subtle? In space, everyone is gay.]
