Advent Drabble 14 - Tango

[earlgreytea68]

For rifleman_lincoln 

John thinks Oliver should take lessons. As if there’s anything Oliver could learn from other people!

“It’s just that it’s good for kids to learn new skills. Karate—”

“I can teach him self-defense skills.”

“—or cooking—”

“Cooking is just chemistry, I can teach him that, too.”

“These would be edible cooking lessons.”

Sherlock glares at John.

“Ice skating lessons?”

“Stupid.”

“Dancing,” John concludes. “He could learn dancing.”

“Why would Oliver need to know how to tango?” Sherlock asks disgustedly.

“He might want to woo someone someday. I’d like it if you knew how to tango, for instance.”

It’s the dance of lerrrrve!

Oh, but Sherlock loves dancing—I bet he knows how to tango, however much he keeps it to himself!

Or perhaps he doesn't know how to tango but then he secretly begins to take lessons as a Christmas gift to John! Aaaah, so romantic. (Don't tell Sherlock I said that, he'd be so offended.)

I love this idea—and the image of Sherlock complete with rose!

“I can teach him self-defense skills.”
It's true, he could teach him baritsu. :D

Oh that's lovely - thank you very much; what a lovely gift!

"“These would be edible cooking lessons.”" Mmm, I seem to remember an eye dropping into a cup of tea!

I can just imagine Oliver mastering the Tango and then teaching Sherlock!!
