Canon Story: The Sussex Vampire
Title: Those that Go Down to the Sea in Ships (the serialisation of the Private Journal of Dr Watson)
Author:thesmallhobbit
Rating: G

Holmes is currently preparing a list of suitable vessels to send to Bob Ferguson, which might prove suitable for young Jacky’s maritime education.  So far I have removed the Gloria Scott II, the Matilda Briggs, the Aurora, the Lone Star, the Palmyra and the Pequod.  I fear Holmes is not taking the task quite as seriously as he should be.

Yeah, I hope Jacky likes pirate stories...'cause he's gonna be in one! *maniacal pirate laugh*

And when can we expect this story to be ready for publication?

Yes Holmes, what were you thinking?

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

One wonders how much he disliked the boy.

[debriswoman]

Quite sad really

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

Yes, at least some of the boy's problems could be laid at the feet of the father.

That is such a great idea for your 60 - very amusing, madam ^___^

I almost feel sorry for Jacky ^^"

[thesmallhobbit.livejournal.com]

Why, thank you.

I shouldn't be - people have been sorry for him all his life and look where it brought him.

Hey kid, wanna try a submarine? The H.L. Hunley (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._L._Hunley_(submarine)) could use a spare hand...
