Still at work. Now been here, with a short break to dump a couple of fish on John, for...over 25 hours. Am in that place where you're so tired you couldn't possibly sleep.
Just waiting for one more report, then to see the DCI, then home.
Talked to Sherlock on the phone a few minutes ago, to try to persuade him Mrs T probably doesn't want a fish skeleton in her classroom all day.
This case is...well, it'll be another one where no one wants to talk to us. The victim who's still alive - just - is in no condition to talk to anyone. No one in the area saw or heard anything. The flat was clearly set up for drugs deals, so it might be a turf war, which means gangs, which means retaliation, which means we need to work fast or the bodies could start piling up.
Danger, I'll probably get home while you're taking Sherlock to school. You'll no doubt find me wherever I land...sofa, bed, floor...

Sherlock, I know you're going to ask, and no, we can't eat hippos.
John make Lestrade better. Ill people are boring.
And Mrs T said I can't have piranhas. She even put a new rule in the school book about it. I think she's boring.
Sorry kiddo, I don't mean to be.
I wonder just how many rules in that book are directly related to you...
I think she's a very wise woman. And we all want Lestrade well again, it'll just take a bit of time.
Remember when you were ill, Sherlock? It hurts.
How are the plans for the frog pond going? Frogs are not boring. They're just interesting in a different way.
Tzom Khal RR!
DW: You can buy marmite in the stores here >_> And Richmond is about 3 hours away, but a lovely city none the less.
Sherlock! You're home! Let me send mental hugs your way. There they go! :D I think RR is probably right in that you should focus on making the best frog pond you can make. I mean, that's why you're building it in the first place right?
You just want him well so you two can go on holiday without me and there should be a rule about that.
Lots.of rules in the book are because of me. There didn't used to be a book, just a poster on the wall, but Mrs T needed a book to fit the new ones in.
Sherlock, John wants Lestrade well because Lestrade is hurting. Even when he says he isn't he is really. I'm quite sure that you don't want him to hurt either.
I think I'm afraid to ask what the other rules in the book about you are.
That doesn't surprise me at all, somehow.
Just wanted to point out you've mad it to two pages of comments, Lestrade. :D
Sherlock: Punkin-bits, John and Greg need time to themselves just like sometimes you need time alone with John. Just because they're going somewhere without you doesn't mean they wont come back, or they wont take you with them some other time. So how about you work on that care package?
..."made," that is.
"Jimmy podgers" sounds just plain rude :-p
Tzom Khal, REReader.
Sherlock, it sounds as if Mrs T is being very sensible. Which may be synonymous with boring as far as you're concerned, but she's the responsible for making sure none if you end up being eaten. Perhaps you could draw a picture of your pond with piranhas and carnivorous plants for Lestrade, as he's ill and needs cheering up?
DW - I was just planning a new post...
Danger - me neither. You and she should compare rule books sometime. Get a bumper edition made for when he goes to big school.
Nameless - It's my phone! Dirty minded thing. I'll get the laptop and do a new post.
Yes, exactly - it's *your* phone. I don't suppose it developed it's dirty mind without your help (unless you were calling me a dirty minded thing, in which case... well, yes) :-)
Greg: I'm with Nameless. :D
John: I'd love to see what's in Mrs T's rulebook... See if you can sneak a peek?
One of them says I'm not allowed to murder anyone at school EVEN if they say it's okay and EVEN if I only do it quietly. And that includes when we're only pretending. And I'm not allowed paint when we do cooking and I'm not allowed to bring live bugs into the classroom unless Mrs T approves of the container they're in. And I'm not allowed to guess the password on her computer or work it out because I didn't guess it was obvious. And I'm not allowed to arrest anyone even if I've got Lestrade's warrant card and there's lots more but I can't remember all of them but I'm allowed to check the book at any time if I'm not sure.
On point one I'm considerably more worried that it needed to apply when you weren't pretending...
Sherlock - how often have you said to Mrs T "but it's not in the rule book" and she writes something down and says "it is now!"?
She didn't say other people couldn't murder me though but that's not as fun because I can't solve it because I'm dead and just have to lie there and anyway if I did it she might put that in the book too.
*blinks*
Yes, I imagine she wouldn't have thought of any of those rules before you being there, Sherlock.
(Oh, boy. I bet Mrs. T gets nervous every time she sees Sherlock checking that rule book.)
New post is up!
