Written for the LiveJournal community Watsons_Woes for their July Writing Prompts challenge. The prompt for day 30 was: Mirror, Mirror: Write a story from a minor character's point of view, where he or she sees something similar between him/herself and Sherlock Holmes.
Part of my Spencer-verse (primarily canon with a few details borrowed from the Granada TV series).
_Spencer Speaks_
Sometimes you just have to wonder about people. Take the tall one: he doesn't like that I'm around, yet if he wore fur and had claws, nobody would be able to tell him from a cat. He knows the streets as well as any tom and can pass unmolested down any of them. I've seen him fight with an efficiency and ferocity many cats would envy. He stalks his prey with cunning that few humans can match. Now, he doesn't understand naps and warm places like the kind one does, but believe me, he would still make a fine feline.
