Holiday Drabble - 14 Dec 2012

Eggnog
BBC Sherlock
Rating: PG
Length: 100
This follows Office Party and relates to a couple of stories from last year. If you want to get the joke, go read Foxhole and the paired 221b’s Frozen/Ice.

Perhaps, considering his intentions, the eggnog had been a poor choice. Or that’s what Lestrade would have thought had he not, in fact, consumed too much of the rich, rum-laden beverage already. As it was, all he thought when Sherlock inevitably cornered him at the office holiday party was, ‘Bugger.’

“Ah!” exclaimed Sherlock, a wicked gleam in his pale eyes. “There’s Silverfox.”

Lestrade winced. Naturally, it was too much to hope that Sherlock had dumped that bit of data from his cache.

“I was avoiding you.”

“Doomed to failure. Any oracle could have told you that. You didn’t need me.”
