Title: Compliments
Rating: PG
A/N: Holmes/Watson-y. It was this, or a completely depressing one based on, "And what is left in our hands at the end? A shadow. Or worse than a shadow -- misery." Yeah, thanks for that ray of sunshine, Holmes.
There was a time when Holmes's compliments to my physical appearance made me protest the inaccuracy of such statements, until the day he chastised me for it.
“Watson, I am one of the most observant men in London and you know I never indulge in false flattery. If I say you are extremely handsome, then it is undoubtedly true.”
