sherlock60Canon Story: The Musgrave Ritual
Title: Old Acquaintances & The Tutor
Rating: PG
A/N: And this week I have 2. Yeah, I'm really failing at not joining in this time round.
“See much of that Trevor fellow?”
Holmes gritted his teeth. “No,” he bit out. He's a client. You need to be polite. “He went to India,” he allowed.
“Ah,” said Musgrave, in a too-knowing voice. Holmes did his best to ignore it. The work is all you need, he reminded himself. Companionship is an unnecessary distraction.
*
Go on now, Reggie. Run along and spend the day measuring shadows and working out trigonometric equations – you've not yet told me the height of that elm tree. That's a good boy. While you keep yourself busy, I'll sample some of your father's brandy and cigars, then see if the new chamber maid is as friendly as the last.

Also screencapped my favourite moment from the Granada episode at my LJ, if anyone's interested.

I like both of these, but I think the first one goes even deeper than the second, and leaves me with a warm and fuzzy feeling of Watsonwareness.
