Every Monday, I will post a prompt. You have until the following Monday to write and reply to this post with a 100-200 word fic inspired by the prompt. All Sherlock Holmes (& adjacent) fandoms are welcome!
For an extra challenge, try to hit exactly 100 words, or write a 221B drabble.
You can reply with the full text of the drabble, or link out to another site like Ao3, Tumblr, your personal DW, etc. Feel free to post completed works to our Ao3 collection!
Fics posted to the main challenge must be SFW; you must link out if your response is NSFW. Please warn for content where appropriate.
WHAT ELSE?
Don't worry if you miss a week! You don't have to commit to this challenge and are welcome to drop in and out. You can also go back and write a late response anytime.
You may post more than one response to a single week's prompt.
If you're inspired to continue your drabbles, you're welcome to connect multiple challenge responses to each other, or expand on your fics outside of the challenge.

The making of tea is simply chemistry, so it can be treated like an experiment of sorts. The time I have spent in Sussex with my Watson has enabled me to make a longitudinal study, from which the following conclusions may be drawn.
First, a strong cup is best mid-morning.
Second, only apply a dash of milk, although this is a most imprecise measurement.
Third, and most important, serving tea in our warm kitchen, after a cold walk, with a plate of biscuits on the tray, is a foolproof recipe for a contented Watson and, by extension, a contented detective.
