"I'm bored." Announced Holmes who had just walked into the doorway.
"If you're not doing anything useful, check my email." Watson said from his writing desk. "I'm quite busy. Remember the passwords 'SHERlockISaNITwit'."
"No it's not!" snorted Holmes. "It's WatsonISaWAULRUS."
"Just check it." Sighed Watson.
Holmes fell into the computer chair and logged onto Watson's email. After making sure he made the keyboard as sticky as possible, deleting all the emails from Watson's editor, and rewriting several others, Holmes opened up an email from a fan.
"Watson you've got another email from a fan." He said dully.
Jumping out of the chair just in time as Watson barreled into the room to look.
"Bloody hell Watson, you'd think you never get an email."
But Watson was too interested in the new email to care.
Dear Sherlock and Watson;
Sherlock-...I can't tell whether to admire you or be creeped out by your...ah...'gifts' in deduction. Ah...I'll get back to you on that.
John-I admire your work as an author. As a bit of a writer myself, I find your works what I strive to make mine. Don't let Sherlock best you at everything, because everyone has talents. I have yet to read one of Sherlock's works, but in all honesty, you are one of my favorite authors. If I were to (heaven forbid!) criticize your works, I would point out how you seem to romanticize what happened. In the words of Sherlock in the beginning of 'The Sign of Four', regarding 'A Study in Scarlet': "You have attempted to tinge it with romanticism..." Don't be discouraged. You have an amazing writing voice, and it is of a great honor for me to have the privilege of reading your works. I would also be inclined to believe that you have a large heart. Metaphorically speaking, of course. There is nothing wrong with that, in fact I find it admirable! Your writing, like many others, has found a way to melt my stone-cold heart. It is amusing to me... women aren't usually the ones with hearts like stone, yet here I am, comparing my female heart to stone! Ah, well, life has shown me that the norm is not always correct. I'm getting off topic here...so, I would like to end by saying: Keep up the good work!
Sherlock-I've decided that I will admire your creepy ability.
Thank you both for giving me the opportunity to write to you,
~**** ********
PS: I heard that Watson's large heart draws many women to him. I am one of them. Watson, you are amazing!
Holmes, who had been reading over Watson's shoulder snorted.
"Creepy? How is my gift of deduction creepy?"
"I don't know Holmes most people don't usually care if I've been walking through mud or not and where I ate lunch."
"Well, I'm glad she agreed that you need to make all your stories based on fact and not opinion."
Watson raised an eye-brow. "She didn't say that. I think she was simply stating that I should back off a bit but opinions I can still use."
"I disagree with most of them anyway." sighed Holmes.
"Hmph." Said Mrs. Hudson who had been collecting the laundry. "I already read that email and I agree that Watson has a way with women. How do you think I agreed to let you rent here Mr. Holmes? Dr. Watson convinced me he'd keep you in line."
As Holmes and Mrs. Hudson had their usual squabbles, Watson noticed something.
"Holmes, where are all my emails?"
"Um, I don't know."
"Holmes… Ew, what is this on the keyboard? Is this jelly?"
"Oh, I just remembered. I have to go tell Lestrade something got to go."
A/N: yes reflekshun, flying pigs of doom. NUM, NUM, NUM! They eatted you. :P LOL thank you Irene Holmes for your amazing. ^_^ I've been a lazy butt for awhile BUT I WILL WRITE MOOOORE! (after I eat some toast, and maybe play my x-box,) LMAO joking. KEEP WRITING OR THE PIGS WILL EAT MORE OF YOU ALL!
