...do you all hate me? Sorry.

Also I'm going to trust you all and assume that you can figure out who's talking when there's more than two characters in a chapter.


February 26

I can help, if you tell me where you are, you know. JW [sent at 13:33]

Mycroft and I don't need any help. Thank you. SH [sent at 13:34]

Is Greg helping? JW [sent at 13:35]

God, no. Greg wouldn't be helpful at all, he'd just distract Mycroft. SH [sent at 13:36]

And you'd just distract me. SH [sent at 13:36]

I won't do anything distracting. JW [sent at 13:37]

You sound like a child. SH [sent at 13:38]

Well, it's not like I'm trying to, is it? JW [sent at 13:38]

John, it has never been more vital to a situation that you do not bother me with texts. SH [sent at 13:39]

That's never seemed to worry you, when you're bored and I'm at work. JW [sent at 13:40]

Finding Moriarty and cleaning up the messes he is leaving in his wake is a bit more important than your work. SH [sent at 13:41]


I thought for sure that Sherlock would've needed you for this. GL [sent at 14:52]

You and me both. JW [sent at 14:54]

Have you actually seen him or Mycroft in the last three days? GL [sent at 14:55]

I've texted Sherlock. And Mycroft was the one who told me what was going on. But I haven't seen them, no. JW [sent at 14:56]

Me neither. GL [sent at 14:57]

Look, the Yard's got a case that we'd normally call Sherlock for. But, seeing as he's a bit busy, you're the next best thing. I hope. GL [sent at 14:57]

I couldn't do half the things that Sherlock does. Couldn't you just ask Anderson to put more work into it or something? JW [sent at 14:59]

Anderson's being a right git about the whole thing. Please, could you just come in and look it over? GL [sent at 15:00]

Fine. But I'm not Sherlock, don't get upset when I can't deduce...anything. JW [sent at 15:01]

Better than nothing. GL [sent at 15:02]


Guess who's taking over the detective work while you're gone? JW [sent at 16:12]

Anderson's an idiot. He can hardly tell the difference between tobacco ash and the ashes in a chimney. SH [sent at 16:15]

Me, you idiot. JW [sent at 16:16]

You what? SH [sent at 16:18]

Me. Scotland Yard work. Failing miserably. JW [sent at 16:19]

Yes, good luck with that. We might have something. I'll text you later. SH [sent at 16:20]

A call would be preferred. I haven't seen you in three days. JW [sent at 16:21]

We'll see. SH [sent at 14:22]


*shields face with hands* please don't hurt me, I swear I didn't mean to go missing for so long!

...but still review, though...
