Ten Words meme

[elaby]

caitirin did this meme the other day with Konata and Kagami and it was awesomesauce, so I'm trying my hand at ten-word Holmes, er, thingies. I wouldn't dare to call them stories.

Rules: Take the major fanfic categories and write something for each using ten or fewer words.

I used ten for all of them, and it was painful. I'm particularly skeptical about the first one, but I was done and didn't want to think about it anymore.

Fandom: Sherlock Holmes, Holmes/Watson (some of them are slashy, but it's all innuendo, so I'm not sure what to rate it.)



Angst: 1891 - Mrs. Hudson drew down the blinds when I left.

Fluff: Sunlight cut the fog one Sunday; we sailed the Serpentine.

UST: Describing Holmes, I draw not from a writer's dedication alone.

Friendship: "I'd have you with me," he said, "stiff leg or no."

Hurt/Comfort: My blood soaked his shirt-front; still he held me up.

Adventure: More harrowing than Dartmoor was watching Mrs. Hudson's small nephews.

Smut: Not without reason did I describe his fingers as "sensitive."

Humor: "Perfectly safe," Holmes assured me, prior to the fire-engine's arrival.

Ooh, the first one is eerie, because it's so ordinary at first glance and then the date hits you like a kick in the stomach. *good shivers*

ROTFL to the humor one. Nice, Holmes. ^^

And I really want the Serpentine fluff story! *squee*

You know, I totally want to write the Serpentine fluff story! I might just have to sometime XD

Thank you! I'm glad you liked them :) And I'm especially glad that you liked the first one, because it gave me fits and I was still kind of afraid it was boring. But you got exactly what I wanted you to get out of it!
