Previous 221b: The icing on the cake


Today's prompt: skirt

________________________________________________


Why do it the easy way when there's an experiment you could do?


“Sherlock, have you seen my... What the hell are you doing?”

“What do you mean what am I doing?”

“What do I mean? You are wearing a skirt! What the hell do you think I mean?”

“It’s an experi...”

“...ment. Of course it is. Listen, is it just me or are your experiments getting more ridiculous by the minute?”

Sherlock did not grace this question with an answer, instead he strode through the room like a model on the catwalk. John flopped down on the sofa and watched his lover with an amused smirk on his lips.

“All right. Tell me. What is this experiment about?”

“I’m trying to evaluate if you are aroused by men in skirts.”

“You know, you could always just ask me.”

“You might lie.”

“Why would I lie? As you have clearly deduced by now, men in skirts do nothing for me. Certain types of men in a kilt though...”

There was a dangerous blink in Sherlock’s gaze. John raised one hand in a pacifying gesture.

“...do even less.” He grinned. “Now come here, let’s get you out of this ridiculous outfit. Because a certain tall detective does a lot for me. And maybe he could... do me?”

“This experiment turned out very differently from what I anticipated.”

“And that’s... not good?”

“No. Rather... not bad.”

You are wearing a skirt!
Oh no. And then there will be heels and sexy lingerie and you'll have been completely Atlinmerricked. Be strong Anarion!

Listen, is it just me or are your experiments getting more ridiculous by the minute?
John reads a lot of fanfiction, doesn't he?

As you have clearly deduced by now, men in skirts do nothing for me.
Good. That's good. And there's sex all the same. That's very good. :D

Atlin Merrick giggles like an idiot at this and she's not even quite sure why. She also pets long-suffering Chocolamousse who bravely struggles through so much heel/lingerie/skirt fic in the name of being nice to Atlin Merrick. Yes. Yes indeed. She does it out of the kindness of her big, big French heart.

Of course I do. Did you think I read all that stuff for pleasure, because I love Johnlock? Oh come on, let's be serious. It's only out of politeneess. Politeness is my middle name. I'm Choco Politeness Lamousse, in real life. Yep.

Although I would have liked to know a little bit more about that men in kilts thing...

I see that currently I am the only one here who is flailing like an over-caffeinated bunny rabbit at the thought of Sherlock in a skirt, but that's all right, I am strong and can flail alone.

"Because a certain tall detective does a lot for me. And maybe he could... do me?”"

That? Right there? Sheer poetry.

Oh, I like it! Men in skirts do nothing for me, either (sorry, Atlin!), although I will join in the 'kilts' exception, for sure :D

Nice play on words at the end there!

Darn and drat.
Had to stop and restart reading this 'cause:
You are wearing a skirt! What the hell do you think I mean?”
I would like to blame Atlin for the brain stutter that image caused, But you wrote it so Thank You! *happy purring*

instead he strode through the room like a model on the catwalk.
Oh yes, Thank You very much. you owe me a new brain, this one is a useless puddle at the moment.

“Why would I lie? As you have clearly deduced by now, men in skirts do nothing for me. Certain types of men in a kilt though...”
{snerk}'cause you know how it effects a Consulting Detective when you lie maybe? Also *KILTS!* *Purrs at pretty...{sorry}* Certain someone is destroying my cognitive funtion.
mop up in aisle 12. again Thank You!

'He grinned. “Now come here, let’s get you out of this ridiculous outfit."
But, come on, Sherlock in a skirt is not ridi...*thinks*harder than you'd believe.*rereads sentence* *shuts-up*
"Because a certain tall detective does a lot for me. And maybe he could... do me?”
We're sorry this brain is asdfggf. please try again later.
