Fic: Holmes: WWJ: Solitary Investigations
Fandom/’Verse: Holmes/ACD canon
Challenge: watsons_woes July prompts challenge
Title: Solitary Investigations
Character: Holmes, Watson
Length: 200 words
Rating: G
Spoilers: SOLI
Warnings: n/a
Disclaimer: The Holmes characters fall in the public domain and are the creation of the wonderful Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. No ownership is implied or inferred. This is done for love only.
Summary: Scene insert for SOLI, after Watson’s less-than-successful investigation.
AN: Dialogue double drabble. Someone complimented me on my writing speed yesterday but I’m hitting the wall: Harry Potter in an hour and then Third Star (again) at the guildhall, so after that I don’t anticipate being good for anything more than a large whisky. So this is a bit of a cop-out, as I’ve had in mind to write a long prose version of this for a while. Possibly I will in my post-challenge plotbunny grooming programme.
Also, halfway tomorrow! *pants* This is fun, but knackering.

“Watson?”
“Yes, Holmes.”
“I must apologise, my dear fellow. I am heartily sorry...”
“No, you are not.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“You are not at all sorry for insulting me, you do it frequently. You are not sorry for maligning my investigative techniques, you have done that on any number of occasions. I am quite reconciled to both these things. What you may be sorry about is that I am sufficiently affronted so as not to return to Charlington Heath with you.”
“if you were reconciled, you would not be affronted.”
“I am affronted for a different reason.”
“Ah. Let me see. You say you are not aggrieved that I criticised your investigation, although perhaps the fault is mine for not giving clearer instructions. I do not believe I have insulted you...”
“You never do.”
“...but if that is not the cause...”
“I am not going to lead you through this. A child of five would understand.”
“I see... Watson?”
“Yes, Holmes?”
“May I extend my gratitude for your having made these investigations yourself, regardless of the outcomes, to enable me to complete my research. It was very good of you to take the trouble.”
“You are quite welcome, Holmes.”
