Oh dear, only Sherlock would drug somebody and go at them with a scalpel because he likes them. I got a kick out of this. :D

So true. John might too. But his would be a life and death scenario to remove a bullet or something. XD Sherlock's just goofy.

And John would have actually had PROFESSIONAL TRAINING. XD

Heck yes...

But I'm sure Sherlock's experimented... on corpses... and Mycroft...

Well, I love my cats and my pug, and I got them chipped, so it only makes sense!

(I only wish those chips had GPS in them, they just have a code number that links to their identity.)

I love this - it's funny, it's appalling, and it's *sweet* in its awful way.

Note that I've had a plot bunny where Mycroft is always chipping Sherlock (he's unconscious a lot after all), and he hands John a scalpel and asks him to help because it's always been a real pain to get them when they're on the back of his neck...

:) My puppy's chipped too. It's what all loving owners do.

So glad you like it.

And, Lord all mighty, my friend, you have a fic coming your way with that last prompt. :)

Yes, this... I'd love to see a fic like this.

This is great! I really like how you convey John's weariness and how Sherlock seems positively sinister. For a short moment I thought it would take a seriously dark turn and saw John as the new skull (who probably is Sherlock's former flatmate, who demanded that he clean away his experiments at an inconvenient moment). For that I love your end even more.

Is it bad that I think it is quite a sensible idea? Sherlock should use one of those pistol-thingies that they use for chipping pets, much more convenient and quite fitting.

I had a dark twist written into it at first. A really, horrifically dark spell with PTSD and overreactions and Sherlock feeling as guilty as Sherlock can possibly feel.

But then I thought, "Savvy, sweetie, this is a humor piece. Remember, humor? People are supposed to laugh. Not cry."

:) Glad you liked happy end. I rather did too.

As for it being sensible, I'm in with you 100 percent. I'm sure Sherlock's going to go for that next. Can't let his flatmate wander into trouble by his onesies. XD

Oh, I had a feeling this was not going to end well for poor John the moment Sherlock offered the tea *giggles*

Needless to say, this was just adorable, although I doubt the doctor would agree with me :) I'm grinning like an idiot on an otherwise crappy day, so thank you!

Initially, after writing the first one thousand words, I thought I would just leave it as a sweet Sherlock moment but the overwhelming dread that Sherlock had put SOMETHING in the tea forced me to continue with the chipping idea. :)

Glad it made your day better. <3 Always one of my goals, making people's days better.

Oh, poor John! Leave it to Sherlock to drug John and attempt minor surgery.

I think I agree with John. The safety benefits of a chip would not be worth the indignity of Sherlock knowing EVERY detail of his movements (as opposed to the current 95% of them). Also, Moriarty would probably hack the chip eventually.

Thanks for the fun read!

Oh God, could you imagine? Moriarty hacks the chip, uses it to take over John's brain and begins to do terrible, terrible things.

Or uses it to track Sherlock during hiatus period.

Or something.

OMG-- the possibilities. :D I love the way your mind works.

As for the indignity of it all, I can solemnly say what John doesn't know, can't hurt him. :D Much
