You've reached Dr. John Watson. I'm probably busy. If you leave a message I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you.

Not really.

I don't think I have to explain it to him anyway. He can think what he likes.

[ Maybe.

It kind of depends, if he's going to be honest. Still, the sentiment is there. Sherlock doesn't really need to know. He's not their dad. ]

You could always refer him to me.

( and she would tell the truth. the question is: would sherlock believe it? it seemed he was inclined to think the worst of her, so perhaps it would be more difficult for him to trust her motives. )

He can always jump to the wrong conclusions and that may make things difficult for you.

Difficult how, exactly?

He's not the sort to come out and ask you to clarify things, is he? Once he reaches his own wrong assumptions, he'll keep them to himself.

Doesn't exactly give you a chance to put things to right, now does it?
