Canon tale: BLUE

Rating: General
Warnings: Damnable sentiment.
A/N: Inspired by optional prompt 1: BLUE is set right after Christmas. How did our boys spend their holiday?


Mrs. Hudson's pudding was met with eyes like saucers, though laughter rang through the room when Cooper found the sixpence. Miss Long found the wishbone, her brother the thimble, and Master Turner the anchor.

When they were warm, full, and wrapped in new coats, Holmes placed a bag in the eldest's hand.

“Happy Christmas, Wiggins.”

“You too, sir.”

A beautifully described joyful scene in the lives of the irregulars:-)

Thank you! Given Holmes's actions at the end of The Blue Carbuncle, we know there's more magnanimous spirit than I think he'd ever admit to.
