Title: A Pair of Sparkling Eyes
Author: [livejournal.com profile] scfrankles
Rating: G
Author's Notes: “I can picture you whispering soft nothings with the young lady at the Blue Anchor, and receiving hard somethings in exchange.” Title from G&S’s “Take a pair of sparkling eyes” from The Gondoliers.


“Another chance for you, Watson.”

Holmes discreetly indicated the pretty young barmaid.

“I’ll go and interview the neighbours; you stay here and exchange sweet nothings for hard somethings…”



“So,” asked Holmes later, “did you get the ‘hard somethings’?”

“Indeed.”

Watson tipped up his hat to reveal two black eyes.

“The young lady’s right hook and left jab were both excellent.”
