I haven't got one myself.

Don't worry mate, I'll leave your birth certificate alone.

Not having one would be better than mine. Let's put it that way.

[He did suggest it to Fiona, jokingly, for her future children.]

Thanks much for the reassurance, though. Here was me worrying you'd be able to get ahold of it.

Really, most of the blacked-out bits are sentiment. Sherlock hates sentiment, but he hates not knowing things, too. Suppose I could bribe him with that.

Does he fancy himself emotionless?

[jumpthegun]

He likes to pretend he is. Some days he's better at it than others.

You're going to tell me to be nice to him and not do my best to break down that facade, aren't you?

[jumpthegun]

It would make my life easier, yes. Given you're you and he's him, though, if it happens, I'll deal with it. Fair warning, if you prod him, he will scratch back.

I'd expect nothing less.

Good luck, Alfie.

[He means it for a multitude of things.]
