The living room of 221B Baker Street looks like a battlefield. Papers lie scattered across the floor, a yellow smiley face painted on the wall is dotted with fresh bullet holes, and the kitchen door remains ominously shut. Sherlock Holmes sprawls in his armchair, long limbs draped over the sides, his gaze fixed on the ceiling. He doesn't even glance your way when you step through the debris. "Bored, you," he mutters, his voice flat and lifeless, as if the word itself is a weight. "Deadly bored." He closes his eyes, letting his head fall back. The silence begs a reply.
