Previous 221b: The chief of sinners


Today's prompt:

________________________________________________


Cherish the inner values


The text from Mycroft just said ‘S almost home. You might want to sit down.’

John raised an eyebrow and felt a little queasy. Sherlock had been gone undercover for Mycroft almost two weeks ago and John had no real idea what these two had been up to. He had got a few texts from Sherlock, but they mostly just told him that Sherlock was still alive and on the job.

He decided to prepare for the worst and got the first aid kit out before filling a bowl with hot water and preparing some towels.

He heard the bell and Mrs Hudson opened the door. John had planned to wait for Sherlock in the kitchen but when he heard Mrs Hudson squeak, he yanked the door open and rushed down the stairs.

“Oh, dear God,“ was all he managed when Sherlock came into view at the bottom of the stairs. And then he started laughing and flung himself into his husband's arms.

His husband, who was unbloody and unhurt, a little thin maybe and sporting a moustache.

John smiled at Sherlock but leaned back when he tried to kiss him.

“I’m not kissing you with that thing on your face.”

Sherlock pressed his whole body to John’s suggestively and whispered “Then I'd suggest you immediately take me to the bathroom.”

This made me smile. I am totally visualizing War Horse Ben as this Sherlock...

Oh my, I think I saw a picture once of Benedict with a beard. I would definitely insist that he took it off and never let it grow back again, too ;)

I agree on War Horse moustache. Wreckers moustache on the other hand... Well that kind of grew on me.

Oh My Lord.

This is brilliant!!

His husband who was unbloody and unhurt, a little thin maybe and sporting a moustache.
I think this should either be without the word "who", or should be changed to:
"His husband, who was unbloody and unhurt, although a little thin maybe, was sporting a moustache."

*giggles* Oh, well played! There were many possible scenarios in my head, but unexpected facial hair was not one of them!

Oh crap(sorry), there's an 'anarion is evil tag' *wibble* No the other tags do not make me feel better 'cause you are sneaky and unpredictable.

“Oh, dear God,“ was all he managed when Sherlock came into view at the bottom of the stairs. And then he started laughing and flung himself into his husbands arms.
Not.Fair. How fast you can make my heart stop, then go limp with relief in two lines. Just. Not. Fair. Doesn't stop me from smiling 'tho.:)

Sherlock with a moustache. That makes me smile for a whole 'nother reason, give me a 'mo to savour that image...purrr...'kay done.

Sherlock pressed his whole body to John’s suggestively and whispered “Then I'd suggest you immediately take me to the bathroom.”
Predictable begging is to be expected but, sequel, continuation, why did you leave it there? Yes, I might have a shaving kink. More sometime? *Hangs head in shame* Thank You.
psst...flung himself into his husband's arms. and i'm gonna *purrr* at little at that image too.
