11:03
I got an invitation in the mail to your wedding this morning
Molly H

11:03
Are you going to make it?
JW

11:04
You really are getting married?
Molly H

11:04
Of course.
JW

11:05
Oh - wow. I thought it was a joke or something.
Molly H

11:05
Why would you think that?
JW

11:06
Well I just never thought Sherlock would go for something like that. But then I never thought he would go for a romantic relationship at all, so shows what I know.
Molly H

11:06
Well he has a very logical reason behind it.
JW

11:07
I'm sure he does. How did you propose?
Molly H

11:08
I didn't.
JW

11:08
What?
Molly H

11:09
Sherlock proposed to me.
JW

11:09
Oh my god!
Molly H

11:10
Like I said, he had a logical explanation behind it.
JW

11:11
Still, that's really romantic of him. You two are so sweet.
Molly H

11:11
I don't know about that.
JW

11:12
But you are. How did he propose?
Molly H

11:13
Well he asked me one night in the flat - but I wasn't there.
JW

11:13
Why would he ask when you weren't there?
Molly H

11:14
He always talks to me, even if I'm not there. Not sure why.
JW

11:14
That's adorable!
Molly H

11:15
Actually it's irritating. I never know what I've missed.
JW

11:15
But if you missed the proposal then how are you getting married?
Molly H

11:16
Well he texted me about it the next day, since I hadn't given him an answer.
JW

11:16
He proposed via text?
Molly H

11:17
Yeah. Told you it wasn't romantic.
JW

11:17
That's a bit sad really. I thought he might do something clever.
Molly H

11:18
Like what?
JW

11:19
I don't know. Maybe a riddle or cipher that spelled out "Marry me?" or something.
Molly H

11:19
Thank god he didn't - I probably couldn't have solved it.
JW

11:20
What makes you say that? You're intelligent.
Molly H

11:20
Maybe, but just being intelligent doesn't cut it with Sherlock.
JW

11:21
That's true. Did you accept right away?
Molly H

11:21
Once I sorted out what question he wanted answered I did.
JW

11:22
I'm so happy for you two!
Molly H

11:23
Thanks.
JW

11:24
Who else is coming to the wedding?
Molly H

11:24
Mrs. Hudson, Mike Stamford, yourself and we're waiting to get confirmation from Lestrade.
JW

11:25
That's it?
Molly H

11:25
Yeah. Sherlock only wanted one person there, and that's just because we needed a witness.
JW

11:26
What about family?
Molly H

11:26
You know how much Sherlock hates his brother.
JW

11:27
But what about your sister?
Molly H

11:27
She's in rehab.
JW

11:27
Oh - Sorry.
Molly H

11:28
Don't be. Maybe she'll clean up her act this time.
JW

11:29
I hope so. I'd like to meet her. Maybe you should invite her to the Xmas party this year.
Molly H

11:30
We'll see. It's only July.
JW

11:35
I just got paperwork on a body that's been donated. Does Sherlock need anything?
Molly H

11:35
I'll ask - give me a minute.
JW

11:41
He wants to know specifics.
JW

11:43
Oh - Right. Female, age 45, died of heart-attack, weight 200, height 5'6
Molly H

11:46
He wants the liver and tonsils.
JW

11:46
Tell him to come down this evening for them.
Molly H

11:46
Will do. And if they end up in my new sauté-pan like the last liver I'm taking you off the guest list.
JW

11:47
I never thought about what happened to the parts when they leave the morgue. It's a disturbing realization to know they end up in your kitchen. I feel bad for you. Sorry.
Molly H

11:48
You should be. When I open the fridge it's usually milk, fruit, left-over Chinese and head and/or eyes in a jar. Looks like he's brewing potions or something.
JW

11:48
Might be. Greg once gave him a Harry Potter book as a gag-gift one year because they used to call him a wizard at the Yard.
Molly H

11:49
Really? Where are the pictures of that?
JW

11:50
On Greg's phone probably. That's where he keeps all his blackmail photos.
Molly H

11:50
Sounds familiar
JW

11:51
What?
Molly H

11:51
Oh- nothing. Sorry classified case.
JW

11:52
Oh - Okay. I've got to get back to the body. I'll see you at the wedding.
Molly H

11:54
See you then. Sherlock says he'll be there in half an hour.
JW

11:54
I told you this evening!
Molly H

11:55
You know time is irrelevant to him when it comes to body parts.
JW

11:55
Yeah I know. He'll just have to wait around here then.
Molly H

11:56
Have fun!
JW

11:56
Right. Thanks.
Molly H
So I only got one vote from the last Chp and that was for Molly. I'm going to do both her and Lestrade – he will be next. Hopefully I managed to capture her characterization correctly – it was a bit of a battle.

Also – a reviewer pointed out that I made a grave error in the last Chp – I excluded Harry from the wedding. In all honesty I completely forgot about her – Oops. But I've fixed that here - so read on!
