GREE -- The Greek Interpreter

“So, Sherlock, when do you intend to introduce me to him?”

“I assume you mean my fellow-lodger?”

“My dear boy, I did not mean your landlady.”

“The request could hardly be more extraordinary if you had. Why this sudden interest?”

“I have never known you to socialize this long with anyone outside of myself. Therefore, he must be worth meeting.”

This is really rather sweet, although maybe slightly pointed on Mycroft's part.

I get the idea that Mycroft rarely beats around the bush when it comes to talking with Sherlock. There wouldn't be much point, after all. ;-)

Thanks!

I can definitely see this happening! Hmm, now I wonder how the post-meeting conversation went... Good job!

I too would love to be a fly on the wall for that conversation... Thank you!

Do I detect a hidden layer of meaning in Mycroft's interest in Sherlock's new partner? I'm going to say yes. :)

Also, wish we could peek into the brothers' conversation after the meeting. Would love to hear what Mycroft has to say about our good Doctor Watson.

You can detect anything you like. Who am I to argue? :-D

Ooo, Mycroft's initial impressions of Watson...now there's an interesting thought! Down, plot bunny, down...

Thank you!
