Characters: Sherlock, John
Summary: Sherlock has a train to catch but John has to work. This is not acceptable
Notes: This is apparently what happens when I read ACD canon. Case based off Silver Blaze. Totnes is a real place near Dartmoor. Train times given are real. My Beta would like it pointed out that the lack of punctuation in John's texts is intentional and not her fault.

Why was there shouting?
Message received 14:08
One took offence.
SH
Message sent 14:09
Which one?
Message received 14:09
Mr Hallinson.
SH

He’s huge!
Message received 14:10
I’m aware of that.
SH
Message sent 14:11
He used to be wrestler!
Message received 14:11
I know. He didn’t like it when I told him he used to throw fights.

A real actual injury
Message received 14:17
Define ‘real actual’ injury.
SH
Message sent 14:18
One with blood. Lots and lots of blood.
Message received 14:19
Will approximately 3/5 of a pint do?
SH
Message sent 14:20
What? Are you thinking of giving yourself an injury just to get in?
Message received 14:21
No, Mr Hallinson has already taken care of that.
SH
Message sent 14:23
What?
Message received 14:25
Sarah thinks it might be broken.
SH
Message sent 14:26
Are you kidding?
Message received 14:27
She says I need to go to the hospital for x-rays.
SH
Message sent 14:28

SH
Message sent 14:30
Are you alright?
Message received 14:30
Feel a bit woozy.
SH
Message sent 14:31
