Sherlock Ficlet and Graphic: The Announcement.
Title: The Announcement
Fandom: Sherlock (BBC)
Disclaimer: These characters are not my creation and neither is their world.
Word Count: Really short, plus graphic.
Rating/Warnings: Slash - Sherlock/John, PG-13? Discussions of sexuality.
A/N: Written as a result of a discussion springing from a prompt on that meme, wherin Sherlock feels the need to announce certain... happy occasions. [LJ-Only]
"Sherlock, why is everyone we know texting me?"
"What do the texts say?"
"Inspector Lestrade says 'About time.' Your brother also says 'About time,' but he adds 'Hurt him and your body will never be recovered.' Anderson's advising I be sectioned, nothing new there. Mike Stamford's sent a big-eyed emoticon and a 'WHAT?' in all-caps. Molly's says 'I hope you'll be very happy together' with a little frowny-face with a misplaced nose. Oh, I guess that's a tear. Oh." He frowned at his mobile. "What have you done to upset her now, Sherlock?"
Sherlock opened his mouth, but John's phone beeped again.
"This one's from Donovan. She's asking if you're as much of a freak in-" The tips of John's ears went pink. "Sherlock, exactly what did you say to these people?"
"I didn't 'say' anything." Sherlock steepled his hands and looked smug.
"I've got lewd questions on my phone from Sally bloody Donovan, and you didn't say anything?"
"Not a word."
"There's a winky-face, Sherlock. A winky-face. From Sergeant Donovan. Have you any idea how disturbing that is?"
Sherlock sighed. "Alright, I didn't say anything but I may have sent something."
"What?"
"Only a small announcement."
Just then a sunny yellow envelope slid under the door by John's feet. He picked the envelope up and opened the card inside. From a tiny hidden speaker 'For He's a Jolly Good Fellow' began playing.
"Well?" asked Sherlock.
"It's from Mrs. Hudson. It's a congratulations card. She's written in it 'I was downstairs this afternoon, dear. I already know.'"
