One shot drabble. ^-^ sue me.
As Watson had been away for some time and Holmes didn't exactly eat anything, Mrs. Hudson had finally been able to get out and shop. As it happened, this would be something that Mr. Holmes would rue.
"Mrs. Hudson!" cried Holmes. "What is that annoying clicking noise!"
"It's my new clock." She replied. Then, she pointed at the mantel piece.
There was an ugly, mangled, greenish-brown, grinning, alligator clock. Its jaws were moving up and down every second, counting off the time. Disturbing enough, its eyes rolled once every hour.
"Would you please remove it?" Holmes scowled.
"No I will not." Mrs. Hudson sniffed. "I'm going to keep something for once without you asking to remove it!"
"Well it's driving me around the bend. I can't concentrate on any of my cases with that going on in the background!"
"You'll get used to it."
But Holmes didn't get used to it. That evening he had a dream about peter pan and it had the annoying ticking Alligator instead of the ticking crocodile and he was the one being eaten.
Next morning when Mrs. Hudson walked in she noticed the clock was gone.
"What did you do with it?" she asked Holmes.
"Sold it." He replied. "For a tidy profit too. I bought a dissent clock with it."
Holmes jested towards the mantel piece. In place of the alligator clock, there was a clock shaped like a gun.
"I think it suited me better."
