Well, as I rather expected, my post to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
cabin_pressure proposing a game of hunt the lemon in real life has so far met with resounding - crickets. I remain undaunted and have obtained supplies with which to tag this first peel of lemons to be put into play.
So, today I wrote the arrival of John's portrait and - well - it's flipping awesome - Claude's portrait, not my writing...I've also finally managed to drag Lestrade into my story for what I'm hoping will amount to more than a cameo because Sherlock is going to make him be 'everyone else' while J & S rehearse the scene during which Benedick arrives and spars with Beatrice. I still can't decide where to set the darn thing. Something visually obvious - Ancient Rome? Sherlock in a toga isn't terribly 'Beatrice' in the way I was hoping it would come across. Sigh.

“Jesus! Did he make it life-sized?”
“Lestrade, watch that -,”
BLAM
“What are you boys doing up there? Was that my wall?”
“No, Mrs Hudson,” three male voices chorused untruthfully.
--------
“Sexy. Dead sexy, in fact. Good show, John.”
Sherlock rolled his eyes at this assessment.
John’s tone was thoughtful when he tentatively gave his opinion. “It’s – actually – not terrible, is it? I mean, of course Claude is very good, but – I’m not exactly – I wasn’t expecting to look -,”
“Impressive,” Sherlock purred. “The word you are looking for is impressive. Don’t worry, John, when you’re not standing next to me you always look quite impressive.”
“Berk.”

Would Regency work? John would look dapper in one of those Regency uniforms and the dresses might suit Sherlock's flat chest. And a bonnet on that boy would be hilarious.
I'm all distracted right now by John-as-Benedick in regency military red grimly challenging Claudio to a duel: "You are a villain. I jest not. I will make it good how you dare, with what you dare, and when you dare."
