Only breakfast -

I really like "Kippers / though / might have been / Continents" -- that's lovely!

I don't even know this fandom, but this short piece gets across the dynamic between the characters in an effective punch.

Thanks! I like to think there's an exasperated, pained look on Watson's face as this concept runs through his mind.

Very nice! I like the alliteration of kippers & continents especially :)

Thank you :) I'm rather a fan of it myself. I even wrestled with whether to keep kippers since they aren't part of traditional full breakfast, but the alliteration was too cozy to abandon.

haha, thanks! I feel like it punched me in the face with the reality of Sherlock and John's relationship.
