gacked from wolfie_sara because I just had to share:

( One of the earlier Sherlock Holmes trailers mixed with... oh, no, I can't tell you, it would spoil it. )

Title: Light in Dark Places
Prompt: Holmes/Hopkins/Watson: bit of bondage - Hopkins makes himself all too available to Holmes while investigating a smugglers cave. Watson decides to make an example.
A/N: This was going to be a drabble... (And I have one more Beeton off challenge left to finish, although I'm a bit stuck because it has turned a) very dark and b) very NC-17 on me. But this one came out silly.)

( That's torn it, Mr. Holmes, )

I was going through some old papers, looking for things, and came across a bit of Air Force humor which will appeal, I think, to anyone who has ever worked at the bottom levels of a large organization and can tolerate a bit of rude language...



In the beginning was the Plan
And then came the Assumptions
And the Assumptions were without Form
And the Plan was completely without substance
And darkness was upon the face of the Airmen
And they spoke Amongst themselves, ( saying )

A bath is a good and glorious thing.

After living in an apartment with only a shower for over a decade, it must be confessed that selecting a new abode was made simpler for me when the choice included lodgings equipped with a large, friendly tub. Showers do for every day, but once a week I have made it my habit to ensconce myself in a vat of hot bubbly water, generally with a book in my hands and my dinner at my elbow. Often, I choose to patronize my local cafe, rather than cook my own food,in the knowledge that luxuries should be as luxurious as they safely might.

The local cafe denizens, unaware of any oddity in my prandial positioning, invariably provide the little niceties which might be required in the absence of soap and water -- napkins and so forth. Included among the sundries are usually such condiments as might enhance the viands I have selected for the evening. But occasionally, an enthusiastic packer provides more.

Tonight I dined on a cheeseburger and french fries. I had two little packets of ketchup, which I caught before they fell out of the bag, and a napkin, which I did not, and had to consign to the wastebasket in a sodden lump. But the food tasted good, the book was well written, and all in all the bath went well.

As the fragrant froth diminished and the temperature of the water began to fall, I decided to depart, and reached forward to pull the plug, pushing aside the last cluster of bubbles in my path.

Imagine my surprise when I found one of those little plastic tubs, and a loose foil cover, floating on the gentle waves.

Ladies and Gentlemen -- I have been buttered.
