“ Sometimes we search for one thing, and discover another. ”
@mollythepathologist // “i ran you a bath. get in it.”
OH, DELIGHTFUL. Yet another thing the detective didn’t want or need, being handed to him on the silver platter of sympathy. Molly was the master of it, always trying to take care of him, trying to ‘ look out for him ‘ . .
( Oh get over yourself, Sherlock Holmes. )
❛ Thank you. ❜ he spat, clearly a rehearsed response nailed into him by John Watson. Always do better. Do better, do better. Well frankly, Sherlock could not be bothered to do better right now, not when withdrawal had him by the throat with its deathly grip. There was so much poison he could say to her, but he swallowed it down.
( Chase her off, so you can get your fix. )
Oh, that damned voice - ringing through his head constantly, telling him what to do, telling him to make the wrong choice, always. ❛ No. ❜ he muttered under his breath, waving his hand as though to clear the air, clear the voice. He brushed past her towards the bathroom, unbuttoning his shirt on the way.
He’s got no clue what has gotten into him. The moment he saw the necklace in the windowpane of a jewelry store, he walked right past it, giving it no more than a glance. And then for two days it had plagued his thoughts, running through his mind. It would look so lovely around Molly’s neck. Perhaps he should get it for her, Watson had informed him long ago that a man should treat his wife to delightful surprises every once in a while.
And so he did, and here they were. At least to himself, Sherlock couldn’t deny that his chest expanded with the feeling of pride, and something even warmer, making his heart beat wilder. That same heart almost leaped out of his throat the moment Molly asked him to fasten the chain around her neck.
“ Not at all. Here, ” a swallow of the lump in his throat, Sherlock gently takes the necklace from her, fingers brushing against her hand in a fleeting moment, He circles around her, the weight of the gold chain carefully settled on her collarbones, tugged up just enough to grant him enough space to fiddle with the clasp, until it’s done. Doesn’t even resist the urge to brush his hands over her shoulders. “ There you are. Like I thought, it suits you splendidly. ”

STARTER CALL // @mollythepathologist
“I mean this is in the loveliest way possible but... god, please hurry up.” She has been hoping to meet Molly in reception, to get a vague answer to how’s work and then move on to the wine tasting but instead, she had received a cheery message about just popping down to the morgue as she’s run over a bit. Popping down to a morgue? In these shoes?
She tries to look anywhere but the body but she swears the dead guy has moved three times. It’s taking her back to medical school and cadaverous and... well a lot of trying her best not to throw up until after class. “How do you do this job... how do you hang around dead people all day and not... I don’t know, imagine them getting up to murder you?!”

It was soooo easy to give her a big ol’ grin. Followed it up with a idiotic laugh and he fumbled around in his back pocket to pull out his wallet, full of small bills and a few crumpled receipts. All for show, every bit of it and Jim hated that he was actually having fun playing a bumbling idiot.
“Um-- two coffees please,” muttered kindly to the attendant and he did the gentlemanly thing of taking both of their cups along on his tray to the small table where the cream and sugar waited. “How d’ya take it?” He poured himself a fair amount of cream and shook open three sugar packets.
“I find it awfully bitter, canteen coffee, anymore than three and I’ll be up for three days.” Oddly enough that part was true, the cream and three sugars was also how Jim often fixed his own coffee when on his own. No need to suffer during playtime, after all.

Professor Hooper,
Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions- the manuscript was submitted yesterday. The editor sent me a horrified note back. I’d call that a success.
You mentioned having a break in your schedule this week? If you’re free, I could give you a physical copy of the script before it’s published.
I had more questions for you as well, if you’re willing to answer them: How long would it take for a person to die if they started eating their own larg -
It wasn’t until Rich got to the coffee house that he realized how stupidly out of touch he was. There was going under cover, acting the clumsy, shy delivery person or clueless student or whatever else he needed to pretend to be that day, then there was actually going to a place, waiting around like a normal person for one’s date, and trying not to act like he hasn’t done something like this in- literally longer than he could remember. He stood at the gate of the cheerful establishment, smiling awkward and acknowledging to the baristas watching him from inside- he’d gotten there early, of course, maybe too early?- and tried not to crease the large envelope-with-type-written-manuscript inside (extra detail, a little dramatic, he thought she’d like it).
He saw her before she saw him, which was unsurprising since his pen name didn’t have any photos attached to it, and he’d stalked looked into her a little before writing her, that first time. “Professor Hooper- !” He cleared his throat, gave a little wave. Side-stepped a couple of people walking by, to make his way toward her. “Cagney- or, ‘B-Brook’. Richard Brook. Good to finally meet you.”

“Yeah—yeah, I will be, maybe once that fuckin’ thing gets the fuck out of here.”
John was sweary when he was drunk and angry. Usually quiet if just drunk. But they weren’t out in public, it was just him and Molly ( and a bloody cat ) and he was allowed to whatever he wanted to be on every whim of the moment. Though really, he should be looking into the scratch on his hand that was positively reddening with blood oozing out of them. He sat up, waving his hand at Toby in a comically furious manner.
“Out, or I’ll, uhm, something, to you. You—Sherlock.”
Toby, his name was Toby. But ‘annoyance’ sounded like a Sherlock right now.

“You look terrible. Do you get any bloody sleep?”
