No format change = Sherlock. Italics = John. Underlined = Mycroft.

What do you guys think of some Mystrade later? I don't exactly ship it, but I have come to accept that where there is Johnlock, there will probably be mentions of Mystrade.

Another multi-day chapter!


December 31

The firework show is on telly, if you come out of your room. JW [sent at 23:34]

Are you saying that the fireworks show will not go on if I do not come out from my bedroom? SH [sent at 23:34]

No, I meant that you might want to come out and watch them. JW [sent at 23:35]

I have no interest in colorful exploding gunpowder. SH [sent at 23:34]

Fine, then, I'll watch them with Mrs. Hudson. JW [sent at 23:35]

You do that. SH [sent at 23:35]

Happy New Year, Sherlock. JW [sent at 23:59]

Happy New Year, John. SH [sent at 23:59]


January 1

I was a little surprised you didn't have a date last night. SH [sent at 12:32]

I thought it might've been Tracie, but apparently her family does stuff together on New Years. JW [sent at 12:32]

Tracie? I thought you weren't seeing her anymore. SH [sent at 12:33]

I didn't exactly think it was any of your business when she called. We've had a few lunch dates. JW [sent at 12:34]

I text you during lunch. SH [sent at 12:34]

And Tracie has come to accept that. JW [sent at 12:34]

Sherlock? JW [sent at 12:46]

Sherlock? JW [sent at 12:53]


John asked me if I had wished you a Happy New Year, and when I said no, he insisted that I text you. SH [sent at 20:34]

Happy New Year. SH [sent at 20:34]

That was nice of John. Send him my best wishes. MH [sent at 20:35]

Do it yourself. SH [sent at 20:35]

Honestly, Sherlock. MH [sent at 20:36]


Did Sherlock text you like I asked? JW [sent at 20:54]

He did. Thank you, John, I didn't think that you would think to ask him to text me. He never does on occasions like this, even if I do. MH [sent at 20:55]

Right, okay. JW [sent at 20:55]


January 2

Did you leave on a case? JW [sent at 12:34]

Yes, Lestrade phoned me and asked me to come. SH [sent at 12:34]

Why didn't you ask if I wanted to come? It's my day off, I didn't have anything to do. JW [sent at 12:35]

It didn't cross my mind. SH [sent at 12:35]

I find that slightly hard to believe, you always bring me, or at least ask me to come. JW [sent at 12:36]

Well, I didn't this time. SH [sent at 12:36]

Did I say something wrong? You're acting a little strangely. JW [sent at 12:37]

Don't be ridiculous, John, of course not. And I thought I always acted strangely. I just thought it would be best if I went on this case alone. SH [sent at 12:39]

I needed to be undistracted. SH [sent at 12:39]

I distract you? JW [sent at 12:40]

Sherlock? JW [sent at 12:50]

Sherlock? JW [sent at 12:59]


So, um, this chapter wasn't exactly humorous at all. I'll try again next chapter.

Mycroft has entered. I have never done anything to do with him in fanfics before, so sorry if it sucked.

Do I even have to ask you to review anymore.
