Author's Notes: 60 words of my own inspired by one of the canon stories. I did a full set of twelve 60s (one for each chapter) the last time we did SIGN, so this time, I kept it short and simple.

SIGN, Part 1: Accidental Damage

I was irked by Watson’s lecture. But even nettled, I knew that he meant well.

I have no such excuse for my callous, blunt analysis of Watson’s watch. I did not mean ill, but neither did I mean well. I simply recited the facts as they appeared to me. Too late, I remembered that some facts ought to be suppressed.
