Sherlock was bored. As always. He had already solved two cases that took a little under two hours. But they really even cases. They were just ordinary people with affairs. And notice there were two cases that needed solved.
Sherlock flicked out his phone and began texting John.
I'm bored. –SH
Well for God's sakes, don't take it on the wall. Mrs. Hudson raised our rent 50 pounds. And that was her being considerate!
I've nothing to do. -SH
I'm at work.
If you were busy then you wouldn't be texting me. -SH
Fair enough. Play 20 questions?
Fine. You start.-SH
Got it.
Noun? –SH
Yip.
"Yip" is the sound dogs make when harmed. And I'm assuming the question wasn't harming. –SH
*Yup.
Is it alive? –SH
In a sense.
So help me, you're answer is "Sherlock Holmes"… -SH
It's not you, Sherlock. Chill.
Right. Is it… tall? –SH
Yip.
John… -SH
*Yup.
Is it multicolored? –SH
It's got about 3 colors.
Hmmm. –SH
That's not a question. You've asked four questions so far.
I'm keeping track. Is it taller than four feet? –SH
Definitely.
I think I know. –SH
Then tell me.
I want to make sure, has it got windows? –SH
Yep.
You've changed "Yup." To "Yep." That indicates you're excited. –SH
Just finish the game, Sherlock…
It's our good friend's spaceship. The TARDIS. -SH
Correct!
But I'm still bored. -SH
I'm with a patient now. Go bug Mrs. Hudson.
I'll boil some fingernails. –SH
Fine. Just don't shoot the wall.
