Anderson, in the chimney, without his brain


“Perfect timing, you two. Anderson is again sharing his theories on how the murder was committed.”

John groaned and Sherlock looked like he might just turn around and walk straight out the door again. Lestrade grinned.

“No, it’s actually quite entertaining this time. You just have to block out his words. He looks like someone desperately trying to do hula hoop. Without a hoop. And failing spectacularly.”

John carefully peeked around the door frame and gave an amused snort.

“What is he trying to do?”

“He thinks the murderer came through the chimney.”

John laughed and turned around because Sherlock was suspiciously silent. Sherlock was also suspiciously absent.

“Where did Sherlock go?”

“Oh, he probably went to pester the suspect.”

“You already have a...? And how does he always know this?”

“Don’t ask me.”

An angry voice drifted down the corridor, “Fuck you and the horse you came in on!”

“Yeah, he found him all right. I better go and rescue the poor guy.”

By the time Lestrade had calmed the suspect down, there was a commotion coming from Sherlock's latest whereabouts, the room where the body lay. He rolled his eyes, “What now?”

Sherlock strolled back in. “Are you working at all? Anderson offered to quit. No loss there. You can let this one go, the murderer was the victim’s brother.”

There should've been Monday Porn today, but I forgot my notebook with the 221B. You'll get the porn tomorrow. Sorry.

Oh, that was funny enough even to make up for the lack of porn!

To be honest, you had me at the 'Cludo-esque' title, but the hula-hoop line just killed me - how the hell do you come up with these things?!

Then the 'and the horse you rode in on' line reminded me of Stace and her 'Fuck you and your lawnmower!' thing from back in May, which I cannot remember in its entirety but still giggle over :D

Wonderful - love this one!

Hm, no porn, but Andersson doing the hula hoop? OK. I can live with that...

Seriously, I grinned all over this.

“He thinks the murderer came through the chimney.”
Is it your Advent Calendar already, like last year? Yeah, I always found Father Christmas fishy.

Sherlock was suspiciously silent. Sherlock was also suspiciously absent.

Also, I saw Frankenstein tonight! *flails like crazy* :D
