Title: The Baker Street Nativity Advent Calendar (19/24)
Author:

Prompter: Self
Rating: G
Word count: Every installment has 221 words (on my computer)
Characters: John/Sherlock, Lestrade
Timeline: A couple of months after the end of the main fic
Disclaimer: This is a transformative work inspired by the BBC television series Sherlock, created by Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, and the 2009 movie Nativity! from Mirrorball Films.
Summary: This is a series of 221b drabbles set in and around The Baker Street Nativity and will make very little sense without having read that first. These drabbles may also contain spoilers for the main story. They are not posted in any particular order, and will jump around in time. I will try to give you some idea of where each drabble fits within (or before or after) the main story in the 'Timeline' field in the header. This series has not been beta read.
"What the hell are you doing here?"
"Sherlock!" John scolds, reaching over to shake Greg's hand. "Nice to see you. Although it is quite a surprise."
"Nice to see you too. I'm on holiday, would you believe?"
"No, I wouldn't." Sherlock eyes him suspiciously. "You're brown as a nut, clearly just back from holiday. So why are you here?" He groans. "Mycroft. One mention of Baskerville and he sends down a handler to spy on me."
Greg splutters, "Look, I'm not your handler. And I don't do what your brother tells me. But yes, he asked if I wouldn't mind popping down." He turns to John. "How the hell does he do that?"
John tilts his head toward Sherlock. "Genius," he says happily.
"Still together, I see." Greg grins, hooking his thumbs in his pockets.
"Yeah, thanks. We're actually here on a case. Sherlock's a consulting detective now."
"Consulting what?"
"Consulting detecive," Sherlock answers sharply. "It means when the police are out of their depth, which is always, they consult me."
"The police don't consult amateurs," Greg scoffs.
Sherlock gives him a look.
Greg raises his hands. "All right, yeah. Still not sure why I'm here though."
John gets a glint in his eye. "You could be just the man we need. How much do you know about the restaurant business?"
