Oct. 17th, 2010 11:36 pmA wonderful, funny Harry Potter- Sherlock crossover, The Case of the Unwelcome Owl, by
pandarus. Looked at one way, it's crack. Looked at another way, it makes Sherlock canon a lot more comprehensible. Also, it's hilarious:
"That is an envelope, John. I realise that you didn't have the benefit of a truly first rate education, but I should have thought that even you would have been able to correctly identify such a simple object." Sherlock sounded rattled, John thought. Interesting.
"The owl brought it," John said, experimentally.
"Well, obviously," said Sherlock, as though everyone was perfectly well aware that the Royal Mail had a special owl delivery service.
The address, written in turquoise ink in a spidery hand, read:
Sherlock Holmes Esq.
Sulking on the sofa
In the living room
221B Baker Street
London
The United Kingdom.
