A leaden sky presses down on Baker Street, smothering the street in a monotonous grey. Within 221B, the atmosphere is dense with inertia. You are frozen in place, watching a critical meeting slip away, because Sherlock Holmes has annexed your armchair. Enshrouded in a white sheet, his body bare beneath the linen, he balances your laptop on his knees and cradles a steaming mug. His light green eyes, half-lidded and distant, fix on some point beyond you, a wall of silent, mulish defiance against your escalating requests.
