*gets out of the taxi, small box in hand with only the simplest of wrapping, not even worrying about what this particular social call might look like*
I hope she's happy. The only reason I'm here at all is because she threatened Johnston. With my riding crop. Not sure why as she has equipment of her own she could have used and been just as effective.
*rings doorbell*

*enters, keeping a watchful gaze on Irene*
Ah. I'm the first one here.
*awkward shifty-eyes*
Where's your tree?
*holds up present*

*goes over to the tree, notes the two presents already there--one from Molly and one from Irene--as well as the larger one set to the side, obviously not for "secret Santa" gift exchange*
I apologize for my lack of proficiency in gift-wrapping. It's hardly a useful skill. I keep deleting and relearning it.
*frowns, sits on couch, half-expecting someone to offer tea. It has been at least five years since he attended any sort of party, and a good fifteen since he's been to a Christmas party*

*frowns slightly*
I hadn't realized it was a race. Cinnamon tea sounds delightful.
I do hope the other guests show up soon. Being alone with two women on Christmas day is hardly my idea of an enjoyable annual ritual...I hope Molly hasn't got ideas about that stupid mistletoe tradition...
*examines every ornament on the tree from where he is sitting*

It's not a race. Laughs and walks into the kitchen to get some tea Comes back Here you go. I hope it's good. It's the first time I tried the recipe. Sits down next to him I think the other guests will come soon. It will be brilliant.

*Sat on sofa, half glaring at the presents I bought. Listening to Sebastian's mumble into the phone as he organizes my 'secret santa' gift. Of course I only agreed to this since it was Irene asking/demanding. Imagine, me at a christmas party...the horror. I frown, rolling my eyes as I glance at my watch. What can possibly be taking Sebastian so long, it's been a full minute on that phone, I'm expecting the arrangements to be done by now. I sigh, frustrated, and grab the bag with the presents and walk out the door, getting in the car and telling my driver the address, quickly getting out my phone and texting Sebastian the details needed for the night, he was taking to long so I just left and this text will have to do, hope he understands what I'm saying. Finally I arrive at the place, getting out the car and fixing my tie before I had the bag handed to me, I walk up and knock on the door, hopefully this will be over soon, I have murders to plan.*

*not rising from his seat, locking eyes*
Ah. Mr. Moriarty. We meet again. And under domestic circumstance this time. Hopefully you've remembered to keep explosives away from your present. Wouldn't want poor Mrs. Hudson losing an eyebrow.
