sherlock60Canon Story: The Gloria Scott
Title: A Cunning Plan
Rating: PG
A/N: Yes, okay, so I said I wasn't going to join in on this go-round. But then everyone else was, and it seemed silly not to, and... Let's go with 'I may not do all of them' this time round instead.
When Watson claims he caught me in 'a communicative humour', what the cunning devil means is that he set in place a deliberate plan to coax my past from me. He bided his time until I was in a jubilant mood, then got me atrociously drunk and flattered me until the words just spilled out, right into his eager ears.

Date: 2012-08-19 03:06 pm (UTC)"Atrociously drunk" sounds too good to be true. We need a movie adaptation that compares Watson's writings with the real happenings. *chuckles* Great idea!
