Wow. This is genius. This is such a perfect character study. So many of the lines are exactly right and not anything I could ever have imagined myself. Such as:
“She really is your mum,” he muttered, taking out the sandwich to inspect it. It looked to be cheese.
“I don't know what you mean by that,” Sherlock said.
He really doesn't know what Lestrade means!
"Like a ninja" cracked me up. It's such good current slang and also completely concordant with ACD canon and Sherlock's character.
I love Lestrade. I love his tolerance and his wisdom and his constant stream of problem-solving when it comes to handling people.
Wow. Yeah, I do want to quote the whole thing back at you.
