Advent Drabble 8 - Ribbon
Requested by anonymous.
There was no point to ribbon on a present. All it did was interfere with easily accessing the present. Oliver was definitely not going to appreciate the ribbon.
Sherlock made all of these points to John in rationally and logically, yet John continued to tie ribbons around Oliver’s gifts.
So, Sherlock supposed it made sense when, eventually, Oliver announced, “Presents are meant to have ribbons on them. Papa always puts ribbons on them.”
“There isn’t any point to the ribbon, you know,” said Sherlock.
“The point is Papa likes ribbon,” Oliver replied.
And actually - yes. That really was the point.
