Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 26 2012, 11:47:32 UTC

Instead, they meet because Sherlock accidentally sends one of his deduction-texts, meant for Lestrade, to the the wrong number. John's number.

If the brother has been thrown up on by a dog, arrest brother. - SH

... What? Harry, is this you? Are you drunk? Don't tell me you're roleplaying with Clara and mixed up the numbers, again.

Re: Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 26 2012, 15:17:48 UTC

Is... is this a reference to Little Numbers? Is it really? Because if it is please marry me.

Re: Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 26 2012, 16:37:03 UTC

Re: Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 26 2012, 16:39:59 UTC

Wait, I don't get it: anons who are talking about Little Numbers... what is it? Goggle gives me nothing relevant, apparently.

Either way, seconding the prompt because it's awesome! :D

It's a Glee fic written entirely in text messages. http://iknowitainteasy.livejournal.com/812.html It's utterly adorable and perfect and I say that despite not watching the show. Give it a try, the premise is rather funny. :)

Re: Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 26 2012, 16:49:28 UTC

ayrt

I don't watch Glee either but I'm very curios now, I'll give it a go! Thank you, anon! :D

Re: Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 28 2012, 00:04:24 UTC

Read the linked fic and I need this in my life.

Re: Sherlock and John don't meet the way they do in canon. anonymous January 28 2012, 00:10:07 UTC

Yesssss, another convert.

...is it okay that I've started working on this? I like this prompt an awful lot.

The first text came on Friday.

If brother has green ladder, arrest brother. - SH

John Watson recognized that it had obviously been sent to the wrong number and chose to ignore it. The second one came on Saturday.

Anderson belligerently incompetent. Sack him. -SH

John couldn't help but smirk. Now he wondered who the hell Anderson was and why he was so incompetent. He also debated whether or not to finally correct 'SH'. One mistakenly sent text was understandable, but this newest message indicated that SH had yet to realize his or her mistake. John licked his lips, prepared to send a message when his mobile beeped again with a new text.

Your reluctance to answer quickly displays a weak mind. - SH

John bit the inside of his cheek before typing back.

Could be I have weak fingers.

The reply:

Unlikely. You frequently display one of your middle fingers towards my back when it is turned. - SHJohn couldn't help but chuckle at that. He didn't know who SH was intending to reach but it was obvious that their relationship was a unique ( ... )

But then, he supposed a blog was something to do. Better than nothing. Though 'nothing' was a pretty apt description of his current existence. He did nothing, he felt nothing, hewas nothing. This thought gnawed at him and he chose to try and do as Ella suggested, no matter how asinine. He sat in his room, laptop open, the blinking cursor on his blog mocking him as the time crept closer to midnight when his mobile sounded again.

Another text?

It had to be Harry. Had to be. She hadn't tried in over a week but there was no one else it could possibly be. Ella only left voice messages and the idea that it was actual SH again was laughable. John picked up the mobile and clicked on his new message to see:

Bored. - SH

John felt a strange emotion blossom in his chest. Something silly and inexplicable that made him shift in his seat, not entirely uncomfortable but sort of...shy. Which was ridiculous. He scratched at the back of his head before choosing to text back.

How can I help?

Your number was only one digit away from my intended ( ... )
