Author's Notes: “The features are given to man as the means by which he shall express his emotions, and yours are faithful servants.”


“So,” said the agency’s Head. “You’re Dr. Watson’s servants?”

“It’s exhausting!” said Left-Eyebrow.

“We’re forever shooting up his forehead in surprise,” Right-Eyebrow explained.

The Head nodded. “I’ll find you both a new position.”



“My eyebrows!” cried Watson. “They’ve fallen out in the night!”

“Heavens, whatever—”

Holmes paused and stared.

“Watson. Did you have that moustache when you went to bed..?”

"Ever so slightly mad"? *looks affronted* I'll have you know it's completely mad :P (Thank you - me too ^^)

[debriswoman]

I was being polite:-p

It's all comparative - what would be completely mad for one person, is only ever so slightly mad on another.

I'm terrified to think then what debriswoman finds completely mad ^^"

Crackity crack crack!

And on bitter cold mornings the 'Stache fluffs up and keeps Watson's upper lip toasty warm.

I like crack :P

And, yes, I believe the former eyebrows will do Watson proud and take good care of his lip ^^

I do hope the eyebrows are happy in their new situation.

It's a lot less work, certainly.
