...You really have no idea what you're getting yourself into, do you? I mean, you realize there are two of them to deal with?






Oh, don't look so gleeful. I--


No! No, it is not "double the fun"...! Lord help me, I'm surrounded by lunatics...

Comments

[consultingsociopath]

Yes, but now I owe him a favour. Which means he'll insist on collecting.


We'll be seeing a lot more of him in the future, I think.

[canenotneeded]

You'd know better than anyone.




A bowl of sweets might not be such a bad idea, now that I think about it.

[consultingsociopath]

M&Ms. But you didn't hear it from me.

[canenotneeded]

Oh, of course not. That would take out all the fun.

[consultingsociopath]

Might be a bit of a different sort of fun, but Mycroft and I bored of playing games with each other years ago.

The big ones, anyway.

[canenotneeded]

No, now you've just moved on to power battles.

[consultingsociopath]

If he didn't insist on trying to run my life the way he runs everything else, we wouldn't need to. He could get on the business of running the Commonwealth without worrying that I'm going to trip him up at any minute.

[Totally a lie, but whatever.]

[canenotneeded]

[This face? This face means he doesn't believe a word of that Mr. Sherlock Holmes]

Right. Of course. Because you don't get a kick out of making trouble for him, or anything.

[consultingsociopath]

[GDI, John.]

Sometimes in the natural course of my investigations, events occur which might inconvenience him slightly. That's not my fault.

[canenotneeded]

You willing wore a bedsheet to Buckingham Palace. How is that not your fault, exactly?

[consultingsociopath]

He can't just demand my help on a case and then refuse to tell me who I'm even working for; it's ridiculous.

[canenotneeded]

You can't just parade about starkers because you think the situation is ridiculous.

[consultingsociopath]

I can, and I did.


And I wasn't naked; I had a sheet.

[canenotneeded]

A sheet you almost lost.

[consultingsociopath]

[...Yes.]

And you talk about me causing inconvenience for him?

[canenotneeded]

Well, if you had been wearing pants...

[consultingsociopath]

I was at home in my own house when they came and fetched me like some sort of pet. If I don't want to wear underpants in my own home, that is nobody's business but my own.





Or perhaps yours. Somewhat.

[canenotneeded]

[--Not thinking about walking about Sherlock their flat naked. Not thinking it, not thinking it, not thinking it--]

Right.

Well. Thank you for somewhat thinking of my opinion. You should, you know. Keep clothed. I'd even take half-clothed, really, if it meant saving poor Mrs. Hudson from seeing you next time she came up with some biscuits.

[consultingsociopath]

[It's not naked when you have a sheet! Just because he's naked under the sheet-- well, everyone else is naked under their clothes, too.]

Oh, she's used to me. I'm sure there isn't much she hasn't seen, not that I want to think about it.

[canenotneeded]

What--







No. Never mind. I don't want to know, don't tell me.

[consultingsociopath]

I'm sure a man with two wives and a girlfriend at that age is very well versed in these things.

[Of course you want to know, John. Doesn't everyone want to know everything all of the time?]

[canenotneeded]

What are you even talking about?

[There are some things that should never be known, Sherlock]
