His smiles come easily, there's no saving them for special occasions or bestowing them like gifts. Not that his smiles weren't like gifts, but that wasn't the point. 

The point was it was all a facade, unless he was home. His smiles were less actually welcoming and more sharing an inside joke. Until he walked inside the fringe home.

Then everything and nothing about him changed. There were still smiles, and the projected warmth was still there. He was like walking into a warm cabin. The only difference was it was more genuine than any other time. His words were still quiet, and there were only slightly more than when he was facing the public.

The only major difference was the way he wrapped himself around Sherlock whenever the man desired, the way he danced with Sab late at night when everyone was in bed or out, the way he always had a moment to make sure Irene was remembering to eat, the way he always welcomed John home with open arms.
