Call it Intrigue

[rabidsamfan]

"The time has come..." The first words of Holmes's note were done with a different pen nib than the rest, as if he'd meant them to stand out, but I scarcely required that clue. I skimmed the rest of the message impatiently. His case was concluded, he was coming home to Baker Street, he did not know when he would find time to call upon me and Mary, but trusted that we were well. No sign of the dancing men, but traces of steam upon the wafer, as if someone else had perused these same words.

The game was afoot.

Okay, you seriously should be writing mysteries for a living. *bites nails*

This is so good. Secret messages. Intrigues. I'm in heaven.
