Canon Story: The Creeping Man
Title: Less Excusable Habits
Author: [livejournal.com profile] scfrankles
Rating: G
Author's Notes: He was a man of habits… As an institution I was like the violin, the shag tobacco, the old black pipe, the index books, and others perhaps less excusable.

“Always look at the hands first, Watson. Then cuffs, trouser-knees, and boots.”



“Blisters on your hands from holding handkerchiefs too tightly. Perspiration on your cuffs. Wrinkled trousers because you strapped tiny bells round the knees. And there are grass stains on your boots from a village green.”

I stared at Holmes in disappointment.

“You’ve been doing folk dancing again, haven’t you?”

Holmes bowed his head in shame. “It helps me to think!”

Either that or he, like the author, has imbibed too much Christmas spirit!

Oh Heaven's sake, no way!
I nearly died from the all the uncontrollable chuckles caused by this. ^w^
