“You don’t have to go,” Sherlock states quietly, still staring at papers.
John shrugs, letting the slightest of smiles creep over his face. “You did say that he warned you against me.”
This grabs Sherlock’s attention, even over the distraction of a case. He looks up with bright eyes. “Yes.”
“Well. That means I scare him.” It would be a stress reliever. Besides, with Dr. Kujo and the others, it had been demonstrated exactly how effective having a powerful network as an ally. In the interests of his flatmate’s health, it might be best to call off the ridiculous shadow games the elder Holmes and he had been playing.
Sherlock stares for a second before, well. That might be a giggle. “Off you go, then.”
