Snapshots In Time : or Five times Sherlock called the Doctor, and the one time the Doctor called him.
A/N: this is just a little something that popped into my head, italicssignify the person doing the ringing, normal signifies the person receiving the call. These are in chronological order, but not necessarily straight after each other, I.e these are snap shots.
Hopefully you will enjoy!

How did you get this number?
Who are you?
I'm the one asking the questions, how did you get this number?
Tell me who you are.
Not until you tell me how you got this number.
Ha, I rang the police box.
Oh.
Now tell me who you are.
I'm the Doctor.

*RingRing**RingRing*
It's you again, isn't it?
You tell me Doctor.
Well, you know who I am, don't you only think its fair that you tell me who you are, at least so I know what I'm up against.
What are you?
Excuse me?
I said what are you, you heard me.
What do you mean?
I mean what I say, and nothing else. Please do answer the question, I do tire of repeating myself.
Buuuttt...
Well you clearly aren't human...
Whabuhow.
Doctor, I am Sherlock Holmes, do you really think these things escape me?
Aha, Sherlock Holmes you say? Well now Mr Holmes... ... Wait? Did you say Sherlock Holmes? As in 221B, lives with John Watson?
How do you know where I live?
Aha, turned the tables on you now, haven't I! But, how are you calling me?
A mobile telephone.
A mobile?
What is it with you and repeating what I've just said? Yes, a portable telephonic device.
But how? How can you be? Mobile phones don't exist in your time.
It's 2011.
Oh...
*oh Amy, you'll never guess what, Sherlock Holmes is on the other end of this phone, and he's in 2011!*
*Beep*
Sherlock?
Sherlock?

Why don't people notice it?
Hello to you too Sherlock.
I mean, it's a bright blue telephone box.
You're the genius, you figure it out.
Some sort of perception filter?
Wow, you are quick.
I'm guessing it's bigger on the inside too?
...I give up trying to work out how you know these things.
I do not know, I deduce, simple.
You live there, no matter the hour of this telephone call, you are there, ergo, you live there. You also live with a woman called Amy, now from the Scottish accent I would place her at Paisley, and about 25-26, but you aren't in a relationship. Therefore you must have two bedrooms. And you can't fit two bedrooms in a bright blue police box.
I hate it when they work things out...

Doctor?
Yes Sherlock?
How old are you?
Over 900 years old.
Ok.
You don't sound surprised, they always sound surprised.
Hmmmpphhh.
How did you find out?
I stole John's laptop.
Borrowed?
Yes.
Still how?
Research Doctor. And the rest? Well when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
Butt...
Goodbye Timelord.
Sher...

I'm going to have to die, aren't I?
I'm sorry.
Don't be.
You don't actually have to die though, I can't tell you much, only that you fake it.
Oh.
Very clever actually.
Did you expect anything else.
No I sup...
*Beep*
Does that man have any manners?

*RingRing*
What have you done Sherlock?
You're a timelord with a time machine, you know what I've done, and you know why I had to do it.
Yes, I do, that doesn't mean I have to be happy about it. Where, and when?
The usual, and the papers should give you the date.
Ok, I'll go there now, how bad is he?
Bad, Doctor, bad.
Bloody hell Sherlock, cant you go and see him?
Timelord, Time Machine, you know why.
No, Sherlock, I don't. Oh yes, I understand why you had to fall, but really? Allowing him to think you're dead, is that wise?
Doctor...thank you.
"Sherlock... Wha"
