A/N: It may have been a comedy, or it may have been a tragedy.
“So you enjoyed the play?”
“Watson, it was glorious!” laughed Holmes. “The comic misunderstandings! The melodramatic ending! I simply cannot comprehend why no-one else was amused.”
Still chortling, Holmes went to ring for supper.
“You appear puzzled, Doctor,” sighed Hopkins.
