An old, brick edifice stands in front of the burnt-down ruins of a home in the hillside. Mountains rear up in all directions, covered in lush, green vegetation. Nobody comes this way anymore, but you have the sense that anything placed in the mailbox attached to this old structure will be found by someone, the only living person for whom this place still has any meaning.

That it would.

If you had the choice between staying here indefinitely or returning to your home reality, you would choose the former?

More sense than you realize. It's not easy to have obligations hanging and be unable to fulfill them, even through no fault of your own.

Indeed.

Only natural -- but it does leave one in a rather difficult position.

It's very seldom that straightforward.

I could say the same thing from my time associating with Holmes.

None currently, but should that change you will be the first to know.

[Watson actually laughs out loud at that.] It's a rum story.

[But he is not adverse to telling it.] I'd just been discharged. Wounded in service and my health was so poor, it was generally considered I'd spend the rest of my days an invalid. I had my military pension which I was spending a little too freely until I came to the abrupt realisation that I needed to take cheaper lodgings. As luck would happen, I ran into an old school friend on the street, and while dining with him, mentioned my predicament and it turned out that an acquaintance of his by the name of Holmes had just that morning been complaining to him about the impossibility of finding anyone to share the rent of some rooms he'd found on Baker Street. I was eager to meet him, so we set off, found Holmes beating a corpse in the medical laboratory of the University to discover how far bruises could be produced after death. I had misgivings of course, but the rooms were good enough, I determined to make a go of it.

-- I never thought I'd say this but I am profoundly grateful that Holmes has never shown the remotest interest in Voduin. What a terrifying thought.

the_good_doctor: (he's too wasted)
From: [personal profile] the_good_doctor
Indeed. He does not need to learn even more ways to cause trouble.

From: [personal profile] the_good_doctor
That's a certainty.

... I apologize, Miss Grey. I certainly did not anticipate taking up so much of your time in idle chatter.

Careful now -- you may encourage me to waste more of your time.

But no, I came to give my regards and pass on my thanks.

[Watson's smiling as he offers a farewell bow.]

I'd say the chance paid off in our favour. Until next time, Miss Grey.
