[Looks from both John and Temperance...

That gives him pause.

...But not enough.]


Even if she moves, you're not going to do anything.

[Really, Sherlock. Shut up.]

Former soldier. Honourable or general discharge, to be given a place in the FBI. You like to step outside the lines, but not in any dangerous ways. Little rebellions but perfectly benign. I'm a potential threat, yes, but you have no evidence I've done harm, and I am currently unarmed and not in a position to do harm, so you won't strike the first blow. You especially won't discharge your weapon.

Particularly not in Temperance's flat.

So-- you're getting yourself worked up and will have to bottle it to be released later. And since this village lacks a proper shooting range, you would need to find another outlet.

Which, really, is likely more trouble than its worth.

As Temperance suggests, calming down is probably the best course of action.

[...That would sound so much better, Sherlock, if you didn't sound so damn smug.]
