Advent Drabble 12 - Advice

[earlgreytea68]

Requested by charlieslola

Oliver rings on a Tuesday afternoon and announces, “I need some advice.”

John feels like he has been bracing for this moment for a while now: the moment when Oliver finally reaches the limit of scientific knowledge and might need advice with an interpersonal relationship. John has been rehearsing an entire speech in his head.

Sherlock says absently, “On what?” not even looking up from his beakers.

“What’s the best way I can get around the fact that I don’t have a particle accelerator here at school?” asks Oliver.

John sighs and supposes his advice will wait for another day.

Hahahahaha! (I don't even want to know what Oliver wants to do with a particle accelerator...)

Yes, John you will have a chance to share another day.

Thank-you for this sweet drabble. You are a gift to all of us.

Next I'll be reading an early present of 'Snowflakes on Christmas Street'. I'm so excited to finally have obtained a copy.

Best wishes for the holidays!

I love Oliver and his dads. Thanks for this!

So glad you enjoyed!

I like the fact Sherlock doesn't freak out at all at the thought that Oliver is going to ask about interpersonal relationship. He's got so much better since Drabble 3. :D

[earlgreytea68]

Ahahah, I think it just doesn't even occur to him!

AHAHAAAHAHAHA!

[earlgreytea68]

I feel confident Oliver does eventually ask John for that kind of advice. Just not yet. :-)

I have a feeling Oliver will never reach the limit of scientific knowledge but he'll still need John's advice some day.

Does Oliver want to create a black hole? That would be worrisome.

[earlgreytea68]

Hahaha if anyone can create a black hole and handle it well, it would be Oliver
