Very nice!

[azuhra]

Thank you! I had fun with the cab man. And the more I think about, the more I think he may yet come back.

This is lovely! Lots of story packed in here. And yay for more cabbie!fic - there's lots of cabbies for everyone. I wonder if we could start a subgenre? ;-)

[calli_scribbles]

I think it should be done. More cabs for everyone!

[azuhra]

Cabbie's really do deserve a genre of their own, don't they? Especially for the crap they have to put up with from Holmes in any universe. Thank you!

[donutsweeper]

Ooh, very evocative!

[azuhra]

Thank you! I certainly had fun with the prompt, and the cabbie, and wounding Watson of course.

The cabbies of London could probably form a support group from what they've witnessed of Holmes and Watson's antics...

[azuhra]

There probably is a cabbie support group. They can't decide if they like Holmes for the regular pay or hate him for the crap he puts them through.

This is great - I really liked the way the cabbie changed from just trying to earn a living from some posh bloke and his drunk friend, to wanting to help a wounded man.

[azuhra]

Thank you! I figure the cabbie has a right to be a generally good guy as well. I'd help a wounded Watson if I saw him!
