The Capture of Jefferson Hope

Title:  The Capture of Jefferson Hope
Author: [info]capt_facepalm
Rating:
PG-13
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (Gaslight)
Characters: Sherlock Holmes, Dr Watson, Inspectors Gregson & Lestrade, Jefferson Hope
Summary: Your favourite scene from STUD, now with new improved alliterative whump!
Warnings: (it's not very good alliteration)
Word Count: 100
Author's Notes: July 17th prompt: (Whump Watson woefully with an alliterative injury.)

Jefferson Hope shook Lestrade off and did not pause to consider his options. Rather than face the ham-fisted Gregson, he barrelled toward the wan gentleman who stood between himself and the door.

This miscalculation cost him his escape.

Holmes and the two professionals piled on and it became a free-for-all; a jumble of legs, fists, and profanity.

Finally, half-strangled, Hope surrendered and was hauled to his feet. The remaining combatants disentangled themselves from the unfortunate doctor who still lay on the floor. Watson, his face ashen, was last to rise, his shattered shoulder had borne the brunt of the impact.

.oOOo.

Oh, poor Watson!

Yes. Poor man!
He'll need to toughen up a bit if he wants to help Holmes with his investigations,

I know! It's not good when your sitting room becomes a mosh pit.

Poor Watson. This is just the beginning of his adventures with Holmes!

Yeah. Poor Watson.
It is actually Jefferson Hope who asks if everyone is okay.

Poor Watson! Next incarnation you should just shoot Hope from a safe distance;)

That's a great plan!

"Holmes, I'm beginning to reconsider the whole flatmate thing."

That would have been a good idea, but then where would we all be?

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and his Dull, Ordinary Flatmate Ormond Sacker - doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

That poor man's shoulder. :(

Only evil people would seek to exploit that weakness!
