Prompt: An LJ comment concerning Watson's opinion of Batman's costume - specifically Holmes wearing Batman's costume. The result:

A/N: I just... I don't even...


"Well, Watson, how do I look?"

"Absolutely not, Holmes! Take that off this instant!"

"I admit the cloak may be a bit much, but-"

"The whole thing is a bit much, Holmes! And-is that a deerstalker on your chest?"

"It's my personal logo. And I've already instructed Lestrade, in the event of a crime, to project the image of the deerstalker onto-"

"This has gone too far! I don't care how successful Mr. Wayne is with his methods, you were doing perfectly well before you heard of them! I will have nothing to do with this nonsense!"

"Why Watson, I always thought you enjoyed dramatic flair more than I."

"Holmes, if you continue down this path of insanity, I shall... I shall tell your brother."

"...you wouldn't."

"I would."

"...can we at least keep the Holmesmobile?"

"...I suppose... maybe for emergencies only."

"Excellent!"

"And we're not painting on a deerstalker."

"Oh."
