Noxious Experiments


“You’re very quiet, Watson.”

“I’m giving you a hard look, Holmes.”

“But I can’t see it...”

“My point exactly.”



Tobacco


“You know it helps me to think, Watson.”

“It’s giving me a few ideas too.”



Smouldering Curtains


“A black eye, Holmes?”

“Mm. The fog was so thick, I couldn’t see Mrs. Hudson’s hand in front of my face.”

Still, it's better than the sulfur-charcoal foggy horror that awaits them outside.

There are days when Watson isn't so sure about that.

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

That's true. It's hard to make jokes about the actual London fogs ^^"

And of course Mrs Hudson hadn't realised how close her hand was to Holmes' face.

No, indeed. I'm sure it was a complete accident... (^_^)

Very good, all of them - though I think the first is my favourite. Thank you.

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much ^_^ Must admit the last one is my favourite *giggles*

Seized the day, Mrs H?

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

A momentary loss of self-control, Mrs. P. I loved those curtains.

[debriswoman]

I completely understand, ma'am.

*cackles* Thank you so much for these badly-needed giggles and for overcoming the gloom of this not-really-happy story. Also, brava for Mrs. Hudson. She is, indeed, becoming indispensable. :D

I think Mrs. Hudson has become the heart of this comm ^__^

And I'm glad you liked this - I do tend to go for the humorous option if I can find one ^^
