Saint Sherlock:
Jane?
Jane Doe:
Hey, Holmes!
How's your day?
Saint Sherlock:
Ca va bien
Yours?
Jane Doe:
It was okay.
A bit stressed and all.
I hate work.
Saint Sherlock:
Aw, you poor baby
Though I relate
It's more stressful when your new
secretary is throwing herself on you
Jane Doe:
Nice!
Ain't you gorgeous.
I think I'd call you
Hot Stuff from now on.
Saint Sherlock:
WHAAAAAAT
NON!
I like Sherlock more
Just...
Keep calling me that
Jane Doe:
Huh?
Don't you have like,
a real name?
Actually, you have two.
Peverell Dane LeBlanc.
You sound so fancy!!!
Saint Sherlock:
That's the plan
I'm French so that's
how it's supposed to sound
Fancy
You yourself has an elegant name
Victoria Belrose
Jane Doe:
Victoria Orion Belrose, fyi.
It is fanceh.
But!
Why are we complimenting each other?
This is so weird.
Saint Sherlock:
Good thing you noticed
I'm getting sick of it
Hahaha
Jane Doe:
OMG!
You're so mean!
But true.
We sound faker than
Lou Houten's new boobs.
Saint Sherlock:
AND NOW WHO'S MEAN?
Though I believe you're looking
for the word posh
M'lady, your being captivates my heart this evening
Ha. Sounds like a fuckboy
Jane Doe:
My dear Sir!
I love your suit.
The seamstress did a good
job on accentuating your dress suit
with gold and silver thread!
And your watch!
Is that Patek?
Ah.
The amount of kissing people's
asses is giving me a migraine.
Saint Sherlock:
Damn
Took the words out of my mouth
Aren't we funny?
Jane Doe:
That we are.
But you're really pretty. (unsent)
