What happens next?

The flat was quiet.

And the tea was cold.

*****

You tell me - because I haven't got a clue.

Sherlock stretched his hand out and very gently set it on John's shoulder. His friend had gone so quiet, so still. The response wasn't what he'd been expecting, but nothing John ever did was something Sherlock could predict. "John?"

"Just give me a minute, Sherlock." John took a couple of deep breaths. "You're alive." He reached out and touched Sherlock's cheek. "And you actually bought milk. I'm not sure which is the bigger miracle." The confused expression on Sherlock's face made him laugh. "Come on, I'll make a fresh pot of tea and you can tell me what the hell you've been up to all this time."

There it is - the return scene I've been avoiding writing for over a year...

That made me laugh, thanks!

They had a snow day?

Hm. It's only October, so probably not, but it's definitely an idea for another time.

Are you, by any chance, having a snow day? Our storm didn't end up being quite as bad as I expected so I'm not.

We are. Not much yet, but it's really wet and heavy.

A massive rainstorm has just blown through, and they're in that silence that comes briefly before birds start chirping again.

I think that might have done it. Thanks!

I hope you're enjoying your snow day. :-)

Suddenly a shot rang out!

(Sorry, having a Snoopy moment there.)

It was a dark and stormy night...

:-)

Want to buy some new plot devices? Or possibly some old ones on discount? ;-)

(You know Thursday Next, right? ^^)

I've only read the first one, so I'm only passingly familiar. But that sounds about right at the moment. I'm rooting through the bargain bin. :-)

And John was rockin' with his cock out.

You really want me to practice and get better at writing the porn before I go that route. :-)

"John, what are you doing?!"

"It's called 'rockin with your cock out, Sherlock. You should give it a try."

But sadly, Sherlock's cock refused to rock.

Suddenly Santas!

or

The quiet of the flat was ever so slightly broken by the sound of a tiny violin coming from within the walls. "Confound it Basil!" cried Dr. Dawson "I told you using spider silk wouldn't improve your playing!"
