Advent Drabble 17 - Ashes

[earlgreytea68]

For hominysnark 

Sherlock says that baking is just chemistry and so he and Oliver have a whole plan to make crime-scene gingerbread men.

“And women,” Oliver adds. “Women can be murderers, too.”

John wonders if he should be proud of this feminist lesson from Oliver.

In retrospect, John realizes it was foolish of him to pop down to get a cuppa. He’s only gone a few minutes but he comes back to a flat filled with smoke, Sherlock darting around opening windows.

Oliver sits sadly with the remains of his gingerbread men. “They’ve been reduced to ashes.”

“It’s an arson,” John suggests.

First crime scenes nativities, now this... John is a saint.

Also Sherlock:


P.S. Your icon and mine make John out to be a Christmas food fanatic. (You and I, John, you and I.)
