"'Milk, hair pins, vinegar…Teddy Bears'?"
"Yes John, Teddy Bears, you know soft cuddly toys. For children."
"Yes Sherlock I know what a Teddy Bear is. I meant, why do you need them?"
"Be more specific next time John. I need them for children of course. Oh, and one for Anderson."
"Okay I'm going to leave that alone for the moment. Why are you planning on giving children Teddy Bears? And if you tell me it's for an experiment I really don't know what I'm going to do with you."
"No, of course it's not for an experiment, whatever gave you that idea? It's all on this website on how to handle children."
"How to—"
"John, stop repeating everything I say. Now, since you are clearly being even slower than usual I will explain. According to this website young children are often calmed by soft cuddly toys resembling animals, the most popular being Teddy Bears, so I need Teddy Bears to give to crying children. It also says that being around familiar things or people, even hearing familiar music can have a calming effect. But as those things are not always readily available I thought that the Teddy Bears would be good to have on hand."
"That's…that's actually rather sweet Sherlock."
"Hardly. I'm merely being practical, crying children are almost as distracting as Anderson."
"And there's the Sherlock Holmes I know. Speaking of Anderson, why would you need one for him?"
"Oh that one is for an experiment; I want to see what affect a teddy bear has on him."
"I should tell you not to."
"But you won't."
"After last week? No, I don't think I will. Just remind me to stand on the other side of the room when you give it to him…with my camera phone."
A/N: I admit I may have used the words 'Teddy Bears' more often than could be called good writing but I found it amusing to see how many times I could get Sherlock to say it.
All so, as I said, not British, so sorry if you don't actually have Teddy Bears over there. Pretend it was an American web site.
