“It's sparkly. Glitter is goniochromatic. That's why it's pretty.”
I laughed and laughed at this line. It’s perfect. I can see why John had trouble not laughing out loud at it. :)
I also really enjoyed John and Sherlock's awkward conversation about Sherlock coming to the recital. I was glad he was able to make it in the end. *hugs him and Abby* :) This is such a great verse!!!

I laughed out loud at "goniochromatic." Then (after I'd finished the story), I looked it up. I had a hard time finding it! It's not in The Oxford English Dictionary. Google finally turned up a book on plastics explaining the word.
Sherlock totally told Molly, and Molly told him he had to get a rose, which had not previously crossed Sherlock's mind-I can just see it.
The argument about disappointing Abby was also fun.

Goniochromatism is the more common word, I believe. It's another word for iridensence. It came up when I was looking for why things are iridescent for a different story and decided that's the word Sherlock would use.
