Thanks, WolfieSara. I was a leeeetle worried about the fey-ness of it but I thought I could get away with it given the theatrical theme. And, yeah, I know I'm stretching credulity a bit with the between-the-wars, let it all hang out vibe. At one point I started thinking, "All this needs is a jazz combo and Robert Preston and Julie Andrews in the next booth." Then I had to stop thinking that because I've still got a massive crush on Robert Preston and it was too distracting. :) ha! Thanks, WolfieSara.

This is glorious stuff, and marvellously understated - I echo Katie's comments about how refreshing it is to be able to see a fic where H/W can proceed [fairly ;)] comfortably in public. The whole “You continue making reference..." paragraph is priceless - what a terrific image of Watson endeavouring to remain calm and unwillingly becoming slightly flustered as his frustration mounts...at "and FURTHERMORE I’d VERY much like to know why you are STILL wearing your stage makeup” I gave up and cracked up, simultaneously. :D I have no idea how you turn all this wonderful prose out so damned quickly, but please do keep it coming. :) I now officially have a new squee, which needless to say is a languid kohled-up Holmes.
