A/N: This was in answer to the prompt: Sherlock BBC, Sherlock, it's a game of chance.
Paying the Rent
Sherlock glared at the numbers on the lottery ticket. He'd only bought for a case because he needed to see what the scratched off material looked like under a fingernail.
Winning didn't matter. Murder did. Anyway, the chance of actually winning one of these ludicrous games was infinitesimal.
And yes, someone somewhere had to win it at some point, but the chances of him winning it now were so very low, unless... "Mycroft, piss off. I can pay my own rent."
