anonymous asked: Will you do more Sherlock and Baby Watson bonding fics? I just love how much your Sherlock loves her. ^_^


"Aww, she's absolutely adorable, Sherlock!"

He sniffed and cuddled his goddaughter closer. "Of course she is, Mrs. Hudson, have you not seen her parents? Thankfully she was blessed with Mary's eyes and haircolor, but her chin is quite definitely John's. Don't you agree, Molly?"

His girlfriend smiled and held out a finger for Isabelle to grasp, giggling as the baby lifted it to her mouth and gummed it. "Oh, sweetie, you are going to be spoiled rotten by Uncle Sherlock, aren't you? Yes you are!"

He rolled his eyes and scowled at her, although with less force than usual. "I am not her uncle, Molly, I'm her godfather," he reminded her with a sound very like a sniff. Molly and Mrs. Hudson exchanged tolerant grins as he gazed down at Isabelle, who was still gumming Molly's finger, her big blue eyes gazing up at him solemnly. "Just as you are her godmother. I take my responsibilities toward her seriously, which means I have no intentions of ever 'spoiling' her. When she accompanies me on her first case…"

"Oh, Sherlock, you can't mean to tell me you're already planning on bringing this sweet little darling to a murder scene!" Mrs. Hudson protested, clucking her tongue and shaking her head.

It was Molly and Sherlock's turn to exchange tolerant glances; how, they both wondered, would Mrs. Hudson react if they told her that Mary had already given permission for her daughter to come along with Daddy and her godfather on cases below a 5…but only after she was old enough to walk and talk?
