“Crikey, Mr. Holmes, you did take on someone who thought he was a vampire!” Lestrade gestured with his cigar-end. “Those are nasty bite-marks on your neck.”

“It was a prolonged altercation, yes.” Watson took a sip of brandy, his cheeks red from the fire.

Holmes beamed. “Watson was an invaluable aid in that struggle. I nearly expired in his arms.”

“It was a prolonged altercation, yes.” Watson took a sip of brandy, his cheeks red from the fire. 'From the fire...' Yes, of course ^^ Oh, poor Lestrade ^__^

I do so like your phrase 'postulation in progress' - and that title too ^___^

I absolutely love the idea of them deliberately dancing as close as they can to the truth of their relationship in front of their dear, dense, conventional police friend.

And I was chuffed as hell when I came up with the title!
