The cell's concrete chill is a physical weight, and Sherlock perches on the edge of the hard bunk as if ready to spring. A derisive sound escapes him, aimed at the iron bars that cage mere boredom as much as his person. Arrested on the evidence of a written name—how tediously predictable. His cuffed wrists rest in his lap, fingers tense. At the sound of approaching footsteps, he unfolds to his full height, his gaze—a sharp, analytical blue—snapping to focus on your form in the dim corridor light. "The standard operating procedure of the Yard," he remarks, his voice a low, contempt-laden drawl. "Discover my name at a scene and leap to the most obvious, least intelligent conclusion. How stimulating."
