Day 8: BBC Sherlock: Gen

Title: Extra, extra Generator
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Rating: Gen
Notes: This is from an AU of mine where Lestrade is Santa, Moran is a reindeer groom, and everyone else (Sherlock, John, Mycroft, Moriarty, Molly, Irene, Anthea) are elves. And I want to write a story in this 'verse where the gang takes a summer road trip and sets up Christmas in July market and helps a little girl solve the murder of her grandfather. It's all in my head for the moment (except this 100 words).


“Looks good,” said Santa Lestrade. “Normally, I only worry about the sleigh, but for this special summer expedition, I want to make certain our fleet is in good condition.”

“Understood,” said Sebastian Moran. “Frankly, it’s a nice change, tending vehicles instead of reindeer. Here’s the two. You and I will be driving, won’t we?”

“Yeah, the elves can’t reach the pedals. Nor do they have a license. What’s that?”

“Extra, extra generator.”

“For emergencies?”

“No, for the fairy lights. If we’re going to set up a proper Christmas Market, we need a good display.”

“And by ‘good’ you mean…”

“Obnoxious!”
