Criminal!John prompt

Sherlock learns that a spat of recent killings was done by a professional assassin. A man so feared that the criminal underworld is afraid to whisper his name. Sherlock goes off on his own to track him down, and is captured.
Sherlock braces himself for a cold-blooded killer, with nerves of steel and no remorse, with a reputation for ruthlessness that makes several hardened criminals check their closets before they go to bed - and meets John. Easygoing, good-natured, cuddly jumper-wearing John. Who thinks he's brilliant and hilarious, and can he take him out for a coffee?
Cue the weirdest courtship ever. Like, dates being crashed by Russian assassins, epic gunfights in the middle of London, Lestrade and the Yard going WTF, Mycroft questioning his brother's taste in men, etc.

*Brings more tea and some biscuits* Aw, perfect prompt! Please, somebody gifted with a talent for writing don't let us sit here forever. (Well, at least it's a good company... Anybody wants to play Scrabble?)

Oh man, Mycroft's reaction would be epic.
"So, Dr. Watson-"
"John, please."
"John, then. What do you do for a living?"
"I kill people."
"..."
"Oh, not for fun. I'm not a serial killer or anything, don't worry. Complete professional, me."
"...I see."
"Used to work for a group, but I quit after they cut our pensions. And banned pub nights, something about too much property damage. Anyways, I'm freelancing now."
"Ah."
"It's quite nice, actually, I get to pick and choose my own contracts. You wouldn't believe how many rich gits want to off their relatives. Gets rather dull after the first couple dozen or so."

Oh my God. I fear I may never recover from laughing over "Anthea, please terminate Sniper 348's contract." and a right good rogering and, just, THE ENTIRE THING.

"Indeed. If you'll excuse me for a moment?"
"Of course."
