________________________________________________
Go Bananas
Suddenly becoming sexually aware in your mid-thirties can have more complications than you would ever think.
Getting aroused by your boyfriend eating a banana for example.
No one ever told you how to deal with that, especially when it happens in public.
And is it normal? You can't just go around and ask people (not even when you're Sherlock Holmes).
So what do you do when you’re Sherlock Holmes and confused over the fact that watching John eat a banana makes you tingly all over? You come up with an experiment.
Which is exactly what he did.
It did not go that well. John was obviously not aroused but concerned.
"Since when are you eating bananas? And in that quantity?"
“I... um, felt like it?”
“You felt like it?”
“Yes. Problem?”
“Maybe you have a deficiency of potassium? Did you work with barium again? That can cause a hypokalaemia. Maybe we should do a blood test?”
Sherlock abandoned the experiment. He did not like bananas anyway. He liked blood tests though.
In the end it wasn’t a problem that John wasn’t turned on by Sherlock eating bananas. Because when Sherlock cleaned his chocolate mousse pot with his finger and licked that finger clean, John couldn’t drag him into the bedroom fast enough. Seems we all have our kinks. Isn’t that brilliant?

Date: 2012-05-27 02:41 pm (UTC)I hit the wall when I read this. Literally smacked at the wall. I believe I may have loudly said the words, "I love this." Possibly because I love this.
I'm already thinking: "When this 365 days of 221Bs ends, what else can I challenge Anarion with?" because I want you to do this every day. Delight me. Surprise me. Make me hit the walls. You darling creature.

I'm already thinking: "When this 365 days of 221Bs ends, what else can I challenge Anarion with?"

Date: 2012-05-27 03:25 pm (UTC)YES!!! And this fic is brilliant too, and so are you! It's funny from the start till the end and your Sherlock is adorable with his insecurity and his haphazard experiences. I very much like the way you use bananas and chocolate. There were already some in your part of Quintessential. I'm sensing a pattern here, and I love this pattern! The image of Sherlock clean[ing] his chocolate pudding cup with his finger and lick[ing] that finger clean is veeery yummy.
*visualizes the image*
*feels happy*
Have a great time tonight!
*keeps her fingers crossed for Benedict* :-)

'Sherlock abandoned the experiment. He did not like bananas anyway. He liked blood tests though.'
... I wish I had written that line. It's perfect. Absolutely bloody perfect.
As is this.
As are you.
