Canon Story: A Case of Identity
Title: The Female Form
Author: scfrankles
Rating: PG
Author's Notes: "As to the letters," he continued, glancing over them, "they are very commonplace. Absolutely no clue in them to Mr. Angel, save that he quotes Balzac once.”


“Women,” said Watson.

“Hmm…?” Holmes put down his book.

“Sometimes I do wonder…” Watson blushed. “...how well you… know women.” He looked away. “Never mind! None of my business!”

Holmes frowned. “Watson, I am not as innocent as you think. I am intimately acquainted with the female body.” He found his page again. “I’ve dissected at least three of them.”



A/N: No man should marry until he has studied anatomy and dissected at least one woman.⸺ Honore de Balzac

Haha! Great last line :)

Thank you ^^ I was very pleased with it ^_^

I fear Holmes, this does not mean that you truly know women!

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

I'm guessing Holmes isn't that bothered :P

Might be some insights which that method may not have brought to light, Holmes.

Indeed, indeed... *giggles*

LOL! Good thing Holmes doesn't seem much interested in courting women, then. Otherwise I'd fear for the poor lass who wound up with a man who considered that "intimacy". :-p

Yes, I think the whole of womankind dodged a bullet there ^_^

Thank you so much ^^ I think Balzac has to share in the praise ^_^

[tripleransom.livejournal.com]
