Prompt from Winter Winks 221: Mary's heart
"She was blonde young lady, small, dainty, well gloved, and dressed in the most perfect taste. Her face had neither regularity of feature nor beauty of complexion, but her expression was sweet and amiable, and her large blue eyes were singularly spiritual and sympathetic."
Watson's description of Mary Watson (née Morstan) in Sign of Four, ACD
"Dearest, you've been staring into the fireplace for hours. Join me for a stroll? The new snow has given London a fresh perspective." She squatted down and placed her hands on his. Her singularly large blue eyes swam with sympathy.
"I miss him." Watson halted. Words were inadequate.
"He was a good man," Mary grasped his hands, "He was a good friend."
"Very much," A sad smile creased his face.
"Those we loved continue to live in our memories. Your adventures with Holmes are more than enough to fill a lifetime. Come, join me down memory-lane in the snowy streets," she gently tugged him up.
"Mary! What would I do without you? You have the heart of an angel."
