Previous 221b: The morning after (the night before) (2/2)


Today's prompt: bandage

________________________________________________


Physician, heal thyself


The moment the knife slashed through his skin he knew he was in trouble. Less because of the knife wound, more because of his husband, who was looking daggers at John, sharper than any knife.

“What were you thinking?“

“I didn’t see the second knife.”

“Obviously.”

“How was I supposed to know that we were going to fight a fucking ninja?”

They ended up at the hospital shortly after. Sherlock pounced on John the moment he was allowed back into the room after the doctor had refused to start working with ‘the crazy one staring at the back of my head’.

“Let me see.”

“It’s fine. The doctor knew what he was doing.”

“I said, let me see.”

“All right, all right. Calm down.”

John tried to lift his shirt with a flourish movement but ended up making a face because a sudden pain shot through his left side.

“You are not fine.”

“I didn’t say I was. I said the wound was fine. I, on the other hand, not so much. Mainly because there is a gash in my side that had to be closed with seven stitches. It hurts.”

“I’m sorry. I should have seen.”

“No. But I should have. I am the trained combat fighter after all. Now stop worrying and come over here to kiss it better.”

JOHN THE POOR BABY IS HURT YOU HURT JOHN WHAT DID YOU DO?

What do you mean it was *my* prompt, that is entirely beside the point, I am not the ninja who went and did horrible, horrible things to John, I am merely the idiot who gave the ninja her terrible, terrible prompt and I see where this is going and how this may be a little bit my fault.

*cough*

Now I need to pee.

Atlin, stop giving Anarion angsty prompts! Or maybe you meant "bondage", right? Or you wanted Sherlock to tie John with bandages, or...

Also, why does everyone in London need to do a wee since Anarion arrived?

You...you hurt John. Why would you do that!
So what if you also wrote some unbelievably funny lines
Like this one:
“How was I supposed to know that we were going to fight a fucking ninja?”

Or this one:
Sherlock pounced on John the moment he was allowed back into the room after the doctor had refused to start working with ‘the crazy one staring at the back of my head’.

And I don't care that how sweet this is!:
“I’m sorry. I should have seen.”
“No. But I should have. I am the trained combat fighter after all. Now stop worrying and come over here to kiss it better.”


YOU HURT JOHN!

I also need to pee.
I...I hope you can't find a bathroom.
i don't really mean that BUT YOU HURT JOHN!

pssst... ‘the crazy one starring staring at the back of my head’.
yes, edited twice. I'm upset 'cause YOU HURT JOHN*pant*

Come on, it's Sherlock-"I'm-a-show-off"-Holmes. Played by Benedict Cumberbatch. Of course he's starring. :D

Well, I guess I can't argue with that.
He is often starring in the back of my head driving me crazy crazier. :)

Lovely! They yearn for trouble and danger almost as much as they yearn for each other - but they always seem surprised when one of them gets hurt during a fight with a bad guy :)

I don't care that you hurt John. There, I said it. I'm a horrible person.

In my own defence, I would care if you hadn't made it clear pretty much from the start that he was fine (or at least that 'the wound was fine'!)

As it stands, I find that I can easily bear his pain if it also brings lines like:

'the doctor had refused to start working with ‘the crazy one staring at the back of my head’.

which made me laugh like a drain.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I suddenly need to pee... not sure what that's about.

There is nothing in the world that Sherlock couldn't kiss better. I agree with the Doctors medication.

"refused to start working with ‘the crazy one staring at the back of my head’. "

Oh, oh -- too Sherlock. I just love it.
