HA!Loved this chapter. Holmes getting a threat from Watson? (still chuckling)

I really enjoyed this piece. Thank you so much for sharing.

Enchanting. You delineate so well and give so much in so few words.

Ha Ha Ha!

Very true. My copy of the canon has an introduction by a lady named Loren D. Estelman and it is an essay titled "The Importance of Boswells" and it says that Watson was a swashbuckler and there was no use denying it even if it was possible.

YOU MUST WRITE MORE.

NOW.

please? *puppy dog eyes*

your portrail of the irregulars is just wonderful.

I can't tear my self away from these, great job so far. speech was a bit off in the beginning, but you've improved steadily as I've gone through. my hat is off to you.

Indeed, thank God for Alfie! I want to take him home with me!

hmm...well done. i can perfectly picture that. and hope this tale is turning in a lighter direction?
although you write the dark stuff so very, very well...

This gets angstier and angstier. Wow. I wonder that either of them ever gets any sleep!

Good to have you back, by the way! I was starting to go into withdrawal. ;)

How the heck can you fit all that into one little bitsy paragraph? *shakes head in hopeless despair*

Good lad, Alfie! *sends him cocoa*

Oh, my. Things are about to get even less comfortable around here...

Very heroic of Watson. Of course. *snorts* I can only hope his testimonial won't be necessary.

Oh, dear, I'm sure there won't be any chance of Holmes staying in bed if he finds out Watson's going to trial...
