Fics like Be Not Far From Me

"But keeping his distance emotionally was more than a matter of propriety; it was a matter of survival. Phryne Fisher would never commit herself to one man (and even if she would, he was quite sure that one man wouldn't be a washed up, divorced police detective far below her station), and Jack couldn't commit himself to anyone who couldn't commit to him. And so he had forbidden himself to feel anything for her beyond respect, admiration, friendship, and a healthy dose of exasperation. And yet… here he was." An introspective Jack POV set during Unnatural Habits immediately after Phryne leaves the station post Sanderson's arrest. Goes a bit off canon at the end.
