A/N: I've taken some liberty with the text here because I like clever Mary.

I was greeted by a tired-looking John at breakfast and, surprisingly, Mr. Holmes. He was much animated, and was holding forth on the nature of a small animal that supposedly played a part in a vicious crime.

"A mongoose, perhaps,” I mused as I sipped my tea.

"My dear Mrs. Watson, you may have it!” Mr Holmes exclaimed.

Aha! Well done, Mary! It's always a piece of my hopeful head-canon that she was in the background of these cases as well, putting in her intelligent thoughts and unique feminine perspective. Three heads are even better than two. :)
