Canon Story: The Devil's Foot
Title: Hum
Author: scfrankles
Rating: G
Author's Notes: I have no idea what backward sweep of memory had brought the matter fresh to his mind…


Perhaps, thought Holmes, he should be more supportive of Watson’s stories. Suggest some cases!

What about..?

(“Come, friends…”)

Holmes winced, and attempted to concentrate.

Or maybe...

(“Po—oo—or, wand’ring—”)

Or… The Cornish Horror!

Holmes frowned.

Where had that come from? He—

(“Tarantara…”)

Holmes spun to face his housekeeper.

“Mrs. Marshburn! Could we at least move on from the Pirates of Penzance?”



A/N: The author has now been obsessed with ‘Pirates’ for 13 months and counting...

Indian Swamp Adders - nothing compared to the horror of the English Libretto Earworms.
