Title: Florid
Rating: Gen
Length: 100
Prompt: florid
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (ACD)
Summary: Holmes remembers where he wrote that note! Watson is not amused.


“What on earth, Holmes!?”

Holmes had made a sudden assault on my person, pushing up my shirtsleeve to reveal—much to my surprise and horror—a chemical formal scribbled in ink.

“Ah, yes! That’s where I put it. Now, if you could just hold your arm steady…”

He returned to his work bench, and I restrained myself from forming a fist and aiming at his head.

“You took a severe liberty while I was napping, Holmes! And I don’t want to hear one word from you about my florid use of language. At least I confine my jottings to paper!”
