Overgrown Peacock

[oxfordtweed]

Thought I'd bookmarked this one. Either I'd neglected to, or my bookmarks ate it.

Either way, BBC!Verse Watson is taken out to wherever to meet Sherlock's' mother. It was around Christmas, and Sherlock was worried because he couldn't actually find his mum.

When they did find her, she was out in the snow, because she had fallen over or decided to have a lie down or something. For some reason, Sherlock insulted her and then she called him an overgrown peacock (she might have called him that, which led to him insulting her).

Oh, this is driving me crazy, because I thought I'd bookmarked that one too and I can't find it. John's the one who finds her, out in her garden, right? And he calls her "love" and tells her he's a doctor.

Could it have been a comment fic? Maybe that's why it's not in our bookmarks?

[oxfordtweed]

Possibly? Damn, it's driving me nuts. Although, I have other comment fics bookmarked as well, so grah.


Do you know what occurs to me? I'll bet we did both bookmark it. I'll bet that it was posted on a certain comm, and the author took it down when they left, as a lot of people have been doing lately.

Her name was Constance and she had a seizure. The paintings in her drawing room had tulips. My memory is amazing, I just never remember the title or the author. :)

Yes, that is exactly the one. And it's annoying, because I wanted to rec it to someone. D:

I went through every fic on holmestice twice because I could have sworn it was written for that, but lmao, it was actually on 221b_slash_fest.
