Well, thank you, Mr. Watson. I love your blog, by the way. It’s quite a good read when I’m bored or need something to ponder. Any big cases going on right now?
Please, call me John. Being called Mr. Watson makes me feel old.
Yes, actually. I’ve just heard about something happening in Hyde Park. I’m not allowed to give out the details though; not ‘til it’s solved though. I’d give it another day before Sherlock has all the answers though. [He chuckles, pushing his hands into his pockets.]
Sherlock had been working on a case for over a week now and was just about ready to explode with frustration. It had been quite some time since he had been stumped like this and he certainly was not taking it well. He had already dozed through his stash of nicotine patches and his desperation for more was just adding fuel to the fire. Not to mention his refusal to eat, sleep or drink anything until this case was closed.
When the door opened behind him, he whipped his head around to see John making his way to the kitchen with his arms overflowing with groceries.
“I’m still missing something, John. Something about all the evidence doesn’t make sense.”He walked over to the mantle and stared at the photographs scattered across the mirror there, wondering why on earth this case was proving to be so difficult.
John had spent the morning battling the grocery store, trying to find food that was both edible and cheap, not to mention his ever-continuing mission to find something that he could get Sherlock to eat. He dumped the groceries on the table with a quietly grumbled, “No, no, don’t move, I’ll get all the bags.”
He began to unpack the food, glancing up at Sherlock as he pulled out some carrots. “Well, talk it all out then. Explain to me - yes I know you hate repeating yourself - the entire case; from the beginning.”
John opened the fridge, paused, and did his best to ignore various experiments and the occasional body part strewn among the shelves as he started to put the groceries away.

Hello nice to meet you all.
[He furrows his brow] H-harry? Nice to meet me? Are you feeling well?
jumpersandjamjw reblogged your post: jumpersandjamjw started following you Er, hello?…
Hey, hold on. -places a hand on his shoulder- There, stop that spinning. John Watson. Who are you?-grins a little- Sorry. I erm, can’t really see. I’m Hamish.
Not to worry, son. -smiles back, before realizing he can’t see him- Are you blind, then? I’m sorry to hear that.
Tinks. Billie Tinks. [/grins] No, I’m not looking for Sherlock. It’s nice to meet you… Watson, I believe?
Ah..yes. How did you — [Blog. Right. ‘Course, she reads the blog. A bit out of the demographic, but alright.] It’s a pleasure to meet you, Miss Tinks. An interesting name you’ve got there.
Er, hello? Is someone there? -spins around-
Are you alright there? Hey, hold on. -places a hand on his shoulder- There, stop that spinning.
John Watson. Who are you?
Oh no, don’t do the whole…salute thing.
The thing is John Watson, I’m not actually a Doctor and you are. The Doctor is just my name.
Curious. Very curious.
Do you have another name that you go by? Or just….’The Doctor’? It’s a very unique name.
Well, sort of…yes. I have a proper name, but you wouldn’t be able to pronounce one syllable of it. So, You can call me Theta Sigma, or John Smith. But that’s really all I have to go off of.
I think I’ll stick with ‘the Doctor.’ -grins- Seems easiest to me.
What is it you do, Doctor?
“Only my last name is uncommon.” And here is when he should start to acting again, or rather, to omit certain details in his reply. “Yeah, most tell me that. I’m ending high school and working in a newspaper of New York.” Without mentioning that he was a super hero who saved the city all the time, but was not the issue now. “And you’re a Doctor who helps Sherlock Holmes, am I right? Where’s my prize?”
“A writer, then? Or are you a photographer?” He corrects himself, realizing that newspapers don’t only have writers. “Sorry, just the assumption, that you’re a writer.” Shut up, John. Moving on. “Erm, yeah. What, have you been reading my blog? Not much of a prize, really, since a lot of people know who I am nowadays. Before…well, nothing much happened to me, but since meeting Sherlock things have gotten interesting.”
