Iran or Iraq...?
Who: Sherlock Holmes, John Watson and Greg Lestrade.
Tone: Friendly...?
Rating: PG-13
When: 28th October
Where: Empty Classroom
What: In an attempt to get John out of his shell and to satisfy Sherlock's questions, Greg's decided toplay Mike Stamford and introduce the two boys to each other.
[In retrospect, this plan of his was starting to look like a really, really bad idea. The concept was simple enough; Sherlock needed someone to explain the ways of the Muggle world to him, and John's better at words than he is. It'd be killing two birds in one stone, maybe even three if this got John to open up further to other people. And really, he did have the best intentions for the both of them. There shouldn't be any problems.
Except there were a million and one problems already.
Sherlock wasn't exactly the most...sensitive of people. And John's slight apprehension against pure-blood wizards might complicate matters when Sherlock starts throwing out the politically incorrect lingo. It probably didn't help that Sherlock was as stubborn as they come about sticking to what he knew so long as it couldn't be explained properly why exactly it was wrong, and Greg's not the best at doing that. Still, there was brilliance. A heaping good amount of it that Greg really admired. And maybe if John could explain things to him then things could change for the better.
Sherlock Holmes was a great man. Hopefully someday, he could be a good one. And who better to correct him and, perhaps in a way, guide him, than John, the boy who had helped Greg find a way to stand on his own two feet when he first started his journey into the wizarding world?
There were ulterior motives to be had too, though. Maybe he wanted Sherlock to meet John, not for the Ravenclaw's own benefit, but also for Greg's own curiosity. What had happened that night two years ago that changed John that much still remained a tight secret, and the longer it was around the deeper the chasm between the John and Greg grew. It would be a lie if he wasn't doing this for some of his own personal gain; he wanted to know what happened, so that he could know how to fix it and get John back.
With one hand on the handle, he looked back to John and offered a slight grin to reassure him.]
He's a bit of a strange one, but not too bad a bloke as pure-blood wizards go. He's just...sheltered, so some of the words he uses it's not because he's got anything on us. Don't take it to heart.
[That said, he pushed the door open.]

Until then. Afternoon.
[Sherlock nods to Greg and leaves. Well, that went splendidly >3 ]

Yeah, he's always like that. Sorry, I didn't know you'd spoken to him before.
