Sherlock is in one of his moods, determined that the only thing to get him through it is his old standby-- a seven percent solution of cocaine. You know it's not good for him, but the alternative is something more raw and vulnerable than you'd ever anticipated.
Author's Note: This script takes place somewhere in the mid to late 1880s. In 1885 the Labouchere Amendment criminalized sex between men (under the crime "Gross Indecency") in Britain. In 1895 celebrated author and playwright Oscar Wilde would be convicted of Gross Indecency and sentenced to hard labor in prison. It is mentioned briefly just as historical grounding for the behaviour of the characters in the story (Guilt/shame/repression, etc.). I do my best not to dwell on it, but it may be TW: societal homophobia for some readers. (Sherlock doesn't care)
