Hey! This is only my second fic that is not a collaboration done on omegle (Lovely place by the way) I was just feeling the autumn spirit and had to write this. Hope you enjoy it!


221B and Hallowe'en

It was October now, the leaves had begun to change and the air had a distinct chill in it, also all the cafés in London had begun to sell pumpkin-flavoured coffees, teas, and bread.

John broke out his thicker jumpers and offered one to Sherlock as well. Sherlock had looked at him disbelievingly and continued to blowtorch some fingernails that were emitting an awful smell in the kitchen.

One October afternoon John sat on the couch with his mobile phone, fingering the orange pumpkin shaped invitation that had just arrived in the Tuesday post.

Hey Sherlock? -JW

Yes?-SH

Do you do Halloween?-JW

Halloween?-SH

No of course not. Childish holiday anyway.-SH

Completely commercialised too.-SH

Well I think you should-JW

Would I benefit from it?-SH

Not specifically, no.-JW

Then I see no reason to partake.-SH

Fun?-JW

That's what cases are for John.-SH

Ah yes, with the cases again. Well you don't seem to get many of those around now anyway. Therefore extreme boredom and lack of fun-JW

What are you trying to get me to do John?-SH

Please go to a Halloween party with me-JW

Why?-SH

I need to go with somebody, I have no current girlfriends and nearly nobody at the party will know me.-JW

Do I have to dress up?-SH

You are seriously considering this? And yes it is advised that you dres up.-JW

I am not considering per say, simply weighing options. And that sounds like an awful thing to have to do.-SH

What will you dress as?-SH

I am going to be a hobbit.-JE

A hobbit. One if those bloody midgets from The Lord Of the Rings?-SH

Yes.-JW

That is idiotic.-SH

That's the point.-JW

It's a party you are meant to have a fun time, wearing stupid costumes and all.-JW

What would I be if I had to go?-SH

A doctor?-JW

Stupid.-SH

Ok, um a ghost?-JW

Dull.-SH

A masquerade man?-JW

No.-SH

Well I don't know then, go as a fucking pink fairy princess for all I care, just please go.-JW

I need something suitable.-SH

Oh my god.-JW

Why don't you be a pirate.-JW

A pirate?-SH

Yeah a pirate, you'd made a fine pirate.-JW

When is the party in question?-SH

Halloween at 9:00.-JW

Alright, I'll go with you. -SH

But if my costume is not perfectly up to par the. I have the right to leave.-SH

Sounds good to me, thanks Sherlock.-JW

Not an issue John.-SH

John leaned back on the couch and put his hands under his head. A fairy princess would have been just as nice
