All an Act

[rabidsamfan]

I have learned many things from my observations -- how a blind man walks, and how sailor ties a knot -- performances I draw from my repertoire whenever I walk out in disguise. But some things I have learned require no makeup to employ. My brother Mycroft taught me to declaim with such authority that no one will gainsay me, and an undergroom of Lord Lillington's how to stop a runaway horse with no harm to the horse or myself. But when it comes to handling women -- ah, there the trick is simple indeed.

I just pretend my name is John Watson.

Nice, Holmes. I'm sure he's flattered. :D

Hee hee. Well, he certainly ought to be.

You have changed my view on Watson completely, that's for sure. *smiles*
