Well you would *have* to be determined when you go up against an adversary such as Sherlock, wouldn't you? XD John's tough. He invaded Afghanistan and everything!

and food wasn't even defiled in any manner (which is usual in food porn)

You know, I actually really hate when people play with food, in any work of fiction. I know it's supposed to be sexy, but the thought of eating off someone disgusts me -- I mean, stuff like chantilly or chocolate sauce are fine, in small quantities, it's great, even, but food like sushi eaten off a naked body...? Sacrilege! Blasphemy! I am something of a purist, I guess; when I say "food porn", it's really "porn about food", not "porn *with* food". I really wanted this fic to be about the pleasure that food can bring, because in the "porn with food" situation, food becomes an accessory to sex. In this fic, I wanted food to be more like a metaphor for sex, and to be at the core of the love story between Sherlock and John, like a catalyst ^^

Thank you so much for this extremely flattering comment, I'm really glad you enjoyed this fic! <3
