Title: Finding a New Tea Set
Fandom: Sherlock (BBC)
Rating: G
Length: 200 words plus 8 photos
Summary: Jim Moriarty has decided he needs a new tea set, so he takes Sebastian Moran along to help him choose.

"Boss, when you said we were going to get a new tea set, this wasn’t quite what I had in mind,” Sebastian Moran remarked.

“But the Porcelain Museum in the Boboli Gardens has the best tea cups in the world.  Where else was I going to go?” Jim Moriarty replied.

“Now, what do you think about the cream coloured set, or maybe the plum?”

   

“I’m not sure either of them is quite you,” Seb said.

“You may have a point,” Jim agreed.  “Ooh, look: his and his!”

“This one’s rather pretty.”

“If you like it, you shall have it.  Only the best for my Sebby.”

“Thank you.”

“And I’ve decided, this is the tea set I’m after.”

“Right, you know what to do.  Everything will need to be wrapped properly,” Jim said, removing a large packet of tissue paper from his bag.

“I did wonder why you needed that.  Most shops do the wrapping for you,” Seb said, as he disabled the alarm and opened the cabinets.

Once outside the museum, Jim said, “Sad as it is, I think we should be saying farewell to Florence for the moment.  We can come back another time to do some more shopping.”

Thank you! They were superb - the museum has some of the best porcelain in Europe.

Very clever, very amusing... ^___^ And oddly, very unsettling too ^^" You've caught Jim Moriarty's personality so well - here are some beautiful things for everyone to enjoy but he wants them, so he takes them.

Thank you very much. As far as he's concerned, he will be using them not just looking at them.

Of course, I love this. Jim can't just go to a shop. He's got to get a one-of-a-kind priceless antique to put Sebby's Builders in.

Thank you very much. Well of course, only the best for Sebby.

I've deleted the work from AO3, since the pictures didn't work. (They showed during preview and when I posted, but then disappeared when I refreshed the page.)
