Sherlock Holmes
"Who's Sherlock Holmes?" Bill and Tonks spoke in unison, staring blankly at the little Muggle in front of them.
"Sherlock Holmes!" the man shrieked. "You are asking who Sherlock Holmes is?"
Bill and Tonks both nodded.
"Why, he's the greatest fictional detective of all time!"
"Right," Tonks answered. "Well, thank you for that little insight, but fictional detectives aren't really our thing. Come on, Bill."
Bill didn't move, though. He was staring with great curiosity at the little man, a look of fascination becoming apparent.
"Oh, you're just like your father," Tonks sighed, turning back to the Muggle. "Alright, please enlighten us about this Sherlock Holmes, Sir."
The man – this Sherlock Holmes enthusiast – beamed as if she'd just told him he was immortal and looked at Bill. "It is hard to believe that there are people out there who haven't at least heard of Sherlock, but I can assure you by the end of my information session, you'll…."
Tonks sighed, plonking down on a tin seat. They had come to this place to find something Arthur would like for Christmas, not for her boyfriend to attend some seminar about a fictional character.
What use was it going to be? He was fictional.
