[ today, there is loud Christmas music coming from 221B ]

John, I don't suppose you have any idea of where that's coming from?

Nnno.

What have you got in your room that'd do it?

[socioapathic]

Besides my bed, nothing that could be causing this cacophony.

[bitnotgoodyeah]

You've not installed speakers anywhere and forgotten?

[socioapathic]

Speakers? For what?

[bitnotgoodyeah]

How would I know? That's why I asked.

[socioapathic]

[what are speakers for again...]

No. What about you? Not your cellphone is it?

[bitnotgoodyeah]

[digs into his front pocket and pulls out his mobile]

Not unless it's become a ventriloquist.

Maybe it's just the season.

[socioapathic]

I could do without the reminders. The calendar works fine for me.

[bitnotgoodyeah]

Would've thought you liked Christmas, honestly.

[socioapathic]

You've met Mycroft. What do you think?

[bitnotgoodyeah]

All right, not the family parts of it -- but the running about and everyone working themselves into a tizzy. There are more murders around Christmastime, surely.

[socioapathic]

Yes, John, I really want to solve the murder of who got killed with tinsel. Honestly. More murders happen, but they're not exactly skillful murderers. Just opportunists trying to make the most of the season.

[bitnotgoodyeah]

Oh come off it -- think of the blog I'd write afterwards:

The Strangle Before Christmas.

I'm sure it'd get a whole... handful of hits.

[socioapathic]

Yes, clearly that's all the motivation I need. Anons all the way.

[bitnotgoodyeah]

You can't convince me you don't like the attention. I won't hear it.

[socioapathic]

It depends on who the attention is coming from.
