In honour of the weather in Western Europe - how would Sherlock and John deal with a heatwave?

Avoid body contact with criminals
Break the "In Case of Fire" box and hose each other down.
Chase one another round the flat in order to produce some cooling airstream
Deflect sunrays by emanating silly but very happy smiles
Exchange location with detective duo from Greenland
Free ~~themselves~~ each other from unnecessary clothes.
Grasp each other tightly thus forgetting the heat
Have a cooling but not too cold bath in the tub
Ice cream orgy in 221C (cool and damp)
Jumping into Sherlock's bed. Or John's. Naked. Of course.
Killing imaginary water monsters with plastic pistols and water-pump "harpoon" by the cold sea
Lazing around by the Moriarty-free pool
Making out by the Moriarty-free pool
No sex. (For once...)
Opening the refrigerator door and lying naked in front of it.
Persistent mutual melting of ice cubes on their respective bodies
Quietly fanning each other with copies of the Daily mail.
Running through the sprinkler
Sitting under the miniature of Reichenbach Falls built in the garden of their Sussex summer-house
Tension, transpiration, tears of relief
Underwear - exclusively from the icebox

Very hot thoughts - so in comparison the weather is rather cool, actually

I'd love to see that!

Zone out on a cool site with each other. ["cool" as in "not hot", obviously. Though it is bound to become hot with these two...]

*cheers*

Good round!

Lilythiell · July 9, 2015 12:46 pm

Yay, it was brilliant. Good way to cool down, tbh.

Now, for another one, I propose

Holmes and Watson are in a hansom. Suddenly, one of them says...

Admit it, Watson, there was absolutely no need in going out. We could have stayed in...

But Sherlock! Just because you got away with wearing a sheet to the palace does not mean you can where one everywhere!

But Holmes, it was too nice out to stay inside all day. Shouldn't we enjoy the weather?
(don't know whether you meant this to be a complete conversation or not, but that's my idea for B)

Could the driver avoid bumps. I'm trying to think. Watson, tell him off.

Why is there no Y?

nakahara · July 9, 2015 5:35 pm

Don´t you know?

Y belongs exclusively to the special "Y" thread. There are people out there who doesn´t want to know anything about the nasty "Y". So it was deliberately left out.

Harriet · July 9, 2015 5:41 pm

Oh, I missed that

Lilythiell · July 9, 2015 6:07 pm

My bad. That'll teach me to not pay attention to what I'm doing.
Well, then.

In honour of the weather in Western Europe - how would Sherlock and John deal with a heatwave?

You-hoo, boys, do you need any more water? asked Mrs. Hudson.

There. Happy now?

Lilythiell · July 9, 2015 6:09 pm

I'll admit I intended it indeed as a conversation (I'm sure we can have a ton of fun, there. And possibly turn it into a fic afterwards xD).

Harriet · July 9, 2015 7:30 pm

Awww, that is sooo sweet - glad I intervened!!!!

Lilythiell · July 9, 2015 7:32 pm

can't have the boys dehydrated now, can we?

Never. Ever. Our responsibility and all that...

Ok, back to the new one now

Don´t think it would be possible, Holmes. We just turned into the seediest part of Soho. From the look of it, we were kidnapped just now.

Lilythiell · July 10, 2015 9:49 am

Oh Watson is deducing ...while Holmes's not *shakes head and sighs dramatically*

In case it's not clear, I do like that Nice change from...well, the general portrayal of Watson (not John, mind. Watson)
