Wrapping paper/bows/ribbons
BBC Sherlock
Length: 100 words
Rating: PG
Taking a break from angst and dead bodies today. Just a bit of suggestively slashy holiday fluff. :-)
John was precise when cutting wrapping paper. Squared edges and just enough. He never over-taped. Then a simple bow or ribbon. Nothing fancy. He wasn't a fancy sort of bloke.
Sherlock was shockingly haphazard in his methods. Often relying on so much adhesive that one needed a knife to get into one's gift.
There are exceptions to every rule. Specifically, in wrapping gifts for each other.
Sherlock's ribbons and bows were in precisely the right places, not a bit of sticky cellotape to be had.
John's wrapping was loose, sloppy, and ready to be torn off.
They both loved Christmas.
