*condescendingly*
The reason I haven't been at Bart's is because I haven't had any cases. And you, being in the medical field, I would hope would come up with a better diagnosis than "terrible" for my condition. Even I know what it is.
*plods away from the door and back into the living room*
If you come in, shut the door. All the intelligence is leaking out.

shuts the door Just ignore that he's rude again...Just ignore it. Well, you look like you terrible, I'm sorry. You want me to tell you why you look the way you look? looks at him You're sweating and you breathe harder than normal and you seem ruder than usually. So either you're ill, maybe fever, or you didn't have enough sleep, which would make sense since you have this silly sleep deprivation experiment going on or you have have withdrawals, but you don't take drugs as far as I know. So I guess it's the sleep deprivation. Is anything of that right?

Hooray! She's using her head!
It's not silly. It's potentially useful. Nicotine. Watch the mango.
*turns too early and hits hand on doornob*
ZARKING FARDWARKS!!!
*punches door*
*winces*
GAAH!
*kicks pillow*
*flops face down into couch*

Okay, look at me! sits down in front of him talks in a very professional and confident way Nicotine withdrawals, huh? You're angry and bored like always, I guess, but it's more intensive. You should go out and take a walk. What else is different then usual?

Look around the flat.
*spins around, arms out*
Do you see anyone else here? No.
*wildly gestures*
John's gone to Hawai'i with Sarah, no idea when he'll be back, and Mrs. Hudson didn't come back from the shopping she was supposedly doing three days ago. Even Mycroft won't answer my calls. Of course I'm bored. My violin-bow broke, there's absolutely nothing worth watching on telly, and I've already read all of my correspondence. Twice.
I know that nicotine withdrawal symptoms peak 48 hours after the last dose. That's to be expected. But what good will taking a walk do? There's no reason for me to go out. I haven't had a case in weeks worthy of my attention.
*visible spontaneous involuntary shudder*
I'm looking forward to the hallucinations. It will give my brain something to do.
*head swims*
They should be coming any hour now.
*unhinged grin*

Well, fresh air is always good. I mean i get a headache by just sitting in this room. Fresh air will help you breathe better and bring some oxygen in your brain, and the physical exercise will help, too. Did you consider to drink a glass of water? I bet not. walks in the kitchen to get a glass of water

*squints, thinking*
When was the last time I had water?
*drinks water quickly*
*shudders again*
Oh, for Pete's sake.
*gets up and goes to the window*
Shut that bloody music off!
*there is no music*

I'll just bring you a bottle of water. Your lips look very dehydrated. gets him a bottle of water Now drink this. sits down next to him and watches him drink I don't want to know what you're planning to prove with this experiment, but I hope you know that it can be very dangerous, especially if you don't drink enough. I don't want you to be my new patient in St. Bart's.

*frowns*
Your patient?
*understanding face*
You want me to perform this experiment under medical supervision.
*startled face at something behind Molly that isn't actually there*
*regains composure*
That's a reasonable request. You'll have to pay the cab. And medical bills.
*stands up and heads to the door, still in pajamas and dressing gown, but grabbing coat and scarf*
*freezes*
You haven't called the cab yet.
*irritated*
Why haven't you called the cab?
*packs laptop, power supply, and phone with charger and stuffs the cables and phone into various pockets*

*smacks head on sides with alternating hands*
Why won't my head just WORK?
*points at Molly without looking*
Don't answer that.
*bounces on toes, breathing deeply*
*claps hands to head and sways, moaning slightly before sitting down*
*long silence*
The BUTCHER! It was the BUTCHER!
*looks slightly embarassed*
*the doorbell rings with the cab's arrival. Sherlock rushes to the outer door, glaring at the inner door as he passes and getting straight into the cab*
*wrinkles nose*
St Bartholomew’s Hospital. Does it smell like durian in here to you?

You're a lousy therapist.
*shifts uncomfortably*

*bursts into unsettling laughter*

As if he would care how he looks any other time. Yes, we can also go to Hyde Park, that's closer, but I like the Victoria Embankment better and we can have lunch on one of the ships, because I bet you haven't eaten in a while, either.

*again squints with thought*
12:38 am. Turkey, swiss, and onion sandwich. On wheat. I wanted rye. Mrs. Hudson didn't get rye. I shouted.
*stomach rumbles, face wrinkles*
*deep breath, stares at cabbie*
*whispers*
Why does the cabbie have three nostrils?
*obviously the cabbie doesn't*
