The whole conversation about wings is amusing me. (And John as the West Wing - I think your Aaron Sorkin is showing there.) I'm also kind of wondering when this was written - the whole East Wind/Wing reference, being closed/coming.
(I do love that John immediately drops it. I wonder what other habits he's formed for Sherlock?)
The other part of that conversation in the dark that I love is the list of occupations that Ollie might be. NO PARTICULAR REASON.
I still think they need to tell Lestrade.
Sometimes I have trouble remembering that there are two ways to react to a fever: us, and everyone else. That said, I agree with the other commenters: John really needs to tell Sherlock, for all the reasons they mention (and I hadn't though of the double dose issue, but they're right - actually, Bill and I tape paper to Andrew's door when he has a fever so we can track his meds and temps when he's sick for exactly that reason.)
But thanks for the email last night. It was hard reading the last part of the chapter, especially John as he's leaving Oliver in his crib, and closing the door behind him, because all of me was shouting at him to go in and stay there the night and not let Oliver out of his sight for one moment. But that's me, and I trust you that whatever happens, it'll be okay. (I just needed a little extra reassurance, and thank you for that.)
