(23:11)
What the hell do you want?

(23:12)
What is your connection to
Sherlock?
M

(23:13)
I barely know him. I’ve never
even met him. Why do you
ask?

(23:13)
I am very interested in the
company he keeps.
M

(23:14)
There’s no need to be worried;
we’re just texting, that’s all.

(23:14)
Not that it’s any of your
business.

(23:15)
The texting doesn’t worry me.
My brother texts a lot, in fact,
he prefers it.
M

(23:16)
Texting during dinner when
he doesn’t have a case,
smiling at his screen as he
responds, and sending
pictures for someone else’s
amusement: those are things
my brother does not do.
M

(23:17)
I still don’t see how any of
this concerns you.

(23:18)
If it concerns my brother, it
concerns me.
M

(23:18)
I’ll be in touch.
M

(…)

(23:20)
Your brother is the creepiest
person in Britain.

(23:21)
What did he do?
SH

(23:21)
He texted me to ask what
my intentions were. I don’t
know how he did it, but he
knew personal things about
me.

(…)

(23:21)
Stop texting John!
SH

(23:23)
Who I text is none of your
business.
M

(23:23)
I could say the same to you!
SH

(23:24)
Stop trying to interfere! This
doesn’t concern you.
SH

(23:26)
How can you regularly text
someone you don’t know?
You’re being very reckless.
M

(23:26)
And you’re being very
annoying.
SH

(23:27)
Be careful, Sherlock.
M

(23:27)
Piss off, Mycroft!
SH

(…)

(23:28)
Tell me if he bothers you
again; he has the habit of
interfering where he’s not
welcome.
SH

(23:29)
I think he got access to my
medical record.

(23:30)
I’m sure he did.
SH

(23:30)
Wow, that’s creepy.

(23:30)
That’s my brother.
SH

(23:31)
How did he do it?

(23:32)
He’s the British government.
He has access to everyone’s
files.
SH

(23:33)
Is he dangerous?

(23:34)
Not dangerous, no. He does
enjoy using his position to
pretend he’s intimidating.
SH

(23:35)
Wow. And I thought my
family was strange.

(23:35)
You’ve seen nothing.
SH

(23:39)
Why haven’t we met yet?

(23:40)
I thought about it.
SH

(23:40)
And?

(23:41)
I have enemies.
SH

(23:42)
With your charming
disposition? Who would have
thought? ;)

(23:42)
Drunk again, John?
SH

(23:42)
Ha ha. Funny.

(23:43)
I’m not one of your enemies,
I hope you know that.

(23:44)
Yes, of course I do.
SH

(23:45)
However, my enemies are not
above targeting the people
around me to get to me.
SH

(23:47)
Just so you know, what
you’re saying does nothing to
convince me you’re not living
in a Bond movie.

(23:47)
I’m not kidding. My landlady
got kidnapped and strapped
to semtex.
SH

(23:48)
Poor woman, that’s horrible.

(23:49)
The person who did this is
very intelligent. As long as
we’re just texting, he can’t
find out. If we’re seen
together, he’ll come after you.
SH

(20:49)
Is this your perfect opponent?

(20:49)
Yes.
SH

(20:50)
Sherlock, I was a soldier. I’m
a doctor. Believe me when I
say I can take care of myself.

(23:51)
I’m sure you can. But I can’t
risk it.
SH

(23:51)
Fine.

(23:53)
Are you angry with me again?
SH

(23:54)
No. Bit disappointed, that’s
all.

(23:56)
I wish I could be part of your
adventures.

(23:56)
I don’t have adventures,
John.
SH

(23:57)
Yeah, you do. I suppose I’ll
have to live vicariously
through your texts.

(23:58)
But if you ever need an
assistant, I think a doctor
who knows how to fight
would be a great candidate.

(23:58)
I’ll keep that in mind.
SH

(23:59)
I’m going to bed. Good night.

(23:59)
Good night.
SH
