Hi, guys! I'm rather new at this, so reviews are ALWAYS appreciated! I don't even know if anyone reads these author notes. I usually skip them. Anyway, enjoy!

John flinched as a flying projectile narrowly missed his head. SMASH! The object exploded against the wall, showering the vicinity with shards of ceramic. Closing his book,
John sighed.
"Sherlock?"
"Bored." Sherlock was sprawled on the couch, staring at the ceiling.
"Yeah, I got that impression by the fact that you almost decapitated me with a coffee mug."
"In order to decapitate you, I would need a sharper and larger projectile, not to mention that my throwing speed would have to be at least five times faster. That mug would have only cracked your skull at the very worst."
"Well, isn't that a comfort," John mumbled. "If you're so bored, you could clean up the mess you just made."
"Why should I?"
"Because…" Frantically, he searched around the flat. There! "Because, if you don't, I'll throw the skull out the window!"
Sherlock just chuckled. "If you threw it out the window, it would just land on the fire escape."
"Then I'll take it to Mrs. Hudson." He folded his arms.
Sherlock sat bolt upright, shooting John an icy glare. "You wouldn't."
"Try me. I don't care what happens to your precious skull!"
"But I'll never get it back!"
"Then you'd better start sweeping."
Sherlock stalked out of the room, mumbling something along the lines of "evil, good for nothing…"
John smiled, opening his book again. He could still hear his friend stomping to the supply closet.
