Victor was, as Dresden’s letter had jokingly suggested, excellent company. Sherlock left him on the mantel, mostly, as holding him felt rather too Shakespearean. It was useful for his deductions to have something to talk at - and yes, he might have talked at a lamp or the ceiling just as effectively. Nonetheless, it felt more natural to speak to the skull - something that had once possessed intelligence - than to an inanimate object. He had entirely stopped thinking of it as strange, when John Watson came into his life and his apartment, and called his attention to the oddities of his existence.
Nonetheless, while John objected to more recent human remains - such as eyeballs in the olive jar or fingers in the tea kettle - he seemed perfectly comfortable with ones that had been reduced to bone long ago. Sherlock liked him all the better for it.
I think Dresden is a LBD of a fandom - Dresden can get literally anywhere he wants without that much effort via the Ways. Why wouldn't accidentally run into Mycroft and earn several favors? *handwaves*
*headdesk* Math skills: CAN NOT HAZ I did mean 2.1 meters! My head went "9 inches is 3/4 of a foot! 3 feet is a meter! 2 and 3/4 meters, ahoy!" but clearly i had the dumb at that moment. Thanks!
i just figured you mightn't have entered in the right numbers since comment ficcing can get a bit frantic when inspired (also you should get inspired more often. BOB THE SKULL IS SHERLOCK'S SKULL aldlkjaf i laugh at that at random time during the day XD) , that's all. :)
