Walking up the stairs into their flat John sighed. He came inside to find Sherlock exactly as he had left him. Pressing replay on the video rapidly and muttering to himself.
"Tell me you've eaten since I left."
Sherlock didn't look up from the Telly. "When did you leave?"
John huffed. "Oh God Sherlock you can't keep this up. It's a cartoon! A children's show! It doesn't mean anything!"
Sherlock ignored him. Hitting replay again and pressing play.
On the screen a battle worn Asian man faced off with a demon. With a crazed look in his eyes the man delivered the line, "Because I knew that you knew, that I knew that you knew that I knew would cheat!"
The demon stared back surprised.
Sherlock threw his hands in the air. "It's here somewhere!"
John didn't attempt to hide his exasperation as he ordered, "Come on. We're going for a walk."
Sherlock waved him off preparing to hit the play button again. He looked up as his annoyed flat-mate pulled him up by the arm.
"John." He warned. "I don't want to go for a walk."
Scoffing John told him, "Well that's too bad then. Now come on. This isn't healthy."
Pouting he stood. "Fine. Maybe the air will clear my head."
"Oh it'll take a lot more than air." John muttered.
"What?"
"I said exactully. Some fresh air would be good for you."
With one last look at the Samurai and the demon Sherlock popped up his coat collar and descended down the stairs.
John followed closely rolling his eyes.
Once they'd walked down the street a ways John ventured to lecture Sherlock.
But Sherlock was still lost in thought.
"Sherlock. Sherlock!"
"That's it!" Sherlock cried triumphantly. "The samurai knew that the demon knew, that he knew that the demon knew, that he knew the demon knew that he would cheat."
"Oh god. You're not still going off about th-."
"But!" Sherlock continued. "The demon didn't know that the samurai knew that the samurai knew he knew it he demon would cheat! He was one step ahead the entire time!" Sherlock laughed. "How clever, that samurai!"
"Great." John muttered sarcastically. "Will you be eating now soon?"
"Yes I'm starved!"
"Lets order take out then."
"ANYTHING, but Asian food."
John laughed. "Right. Tex-mex it is then."
