[ Not her usual video this time, but her Scottish is as distinctive as ever. It sounds like she's rummaging around and cleaning up, so there's a reason. ]
The snowglobes were nice while they lasted, yeah? I wasn't really expecting them to melt though. [ Guess who had to clean up a bunch of them? ] Sort of made me miss a few things. Well, okay,

[ yeah, she hears it. ] ... They probably left, didn't they?

[Welp.] ... I don't know. I can't lie to you. Maybe. [Gentler toned now, with positivity.] But it's not hard to just not see somebody for a week, either.

[ hint of a subtle smile there. ] I'd want the truth anyway. And you're right, but I can't see Sherlock keeping quiet when I've called him out like this.

[ there's honestly not much that she wouldn't believe. and her story about back home isn't exactly easy to swallow. ]
