Canon Story: The Gloria Scott
Title: The Curious Incident

If not for a dog bite, what might Holmes have become? Had Holmes become anything other than the world’s only consulting detective, would I never have made his acquaintance?

Ah, he has grasped the significance straight away. Singular man. I don’t know, my dear Watson, but I am grateful not to have found out. Clever old dog, he thought fondly.

Canon Story: The Musgrave Ritual
Title: Double Bluff
A/N: Holmes isn't the only one with a cunning plan.

One winter’s night I found myself at a loss for occupation. Sitting quietly by the fire with Holmes was pleasant, of course, but certainly the evening would only be improved by his relating an early case?

“Holmes,” I said, “do be a good fellow and contrive to make our chambers a bit less cluttered with the detritus of your work.”

Canon Story: A Study in Scarlet
Title: The First of Many

Our first deduction concluded with my explaining my profession in full. Watson could not be blamed, of course. Despite the many clues I had left lying about our rooms and dangling over dinner, deducing that a man is the world’s only anything is hardly child’s play. He chose to observe rather than inquire, that was the crux of the matter.
