Author's Notes: With a wave of his hand he indicated my old armchair, but otherwise for half an hour he gave no sign that he was aware of my presence... I have one other client in England…


Mrs. Hudson climbed in through the window, thrust a tray at Watson—

“Tea, you b______.”

—and then exited, creeping on all fours.

“Ah, Watson…”

Watson turned to Holmes, who smiled.

“Anything interesting happen while I was ‘away’..?”

Watson looked bemused.

“Mrs. Hudson… Is she..?”

He shook his head.

“...trying a new hairstyle?”

Holmes nodded. “Embraced the Gibson tuck, I believe!”

What does a landlady need to do to get noticed?

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Well, more than taking a monkey serum, apparently ^___^

Oh, goodness.

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Indeed, indeed ^__^

Snort! Yeah, they'd only notice if their tea was late.

Unfortunately this is probably true ^___^

Gin or serum?

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Both, Mrs. P., please. Both.

Honestly, if monkey serum makes her happy, then more power to her. Goodness knows, she needs her pleasures in life.

She really does ^__^
