“I need to borrow George Orwell,” Oliver announced upon being shown into Mycroft’s office by Anthea. Mycroft didn’t blink. Oliver, at seven, was a common visitor. “I need a bloodhound. But George Orwell is the only dog I know, so he’ll have to do. He’s much closer to being a bloodhound than the alley cat Mrs. Hudson feeds.”
“Please don’t go near that thing,” said Mycroft. “It’s flea-ridden. What do you need a bloodhound for?”
“Secret consulting detective business,” said Oliver.
“Is this about terrorizing the ducks in the park again?”
“Maybe,” Oliver allowed.
“I respect your determination,” said Mycroft.

John should tell Oliver about his "Oh my God I'm in love with this man" revelation moment when he and Sherlock had taken baby Oliver to feed ducks for the first time, he might feel a bit more indulgent with them after that! :D
