Fic Rec: En Garde

Title: En Garde
Author: argyle4eva
Pairing: Gen
Length: 1,571
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC

Author's summary: Written for this kinkmeme prompt: "Crack or serious if you can do it (just don't make it shippy please): swordfight between Mycroft with his umbrella and John with his cane.”

Reccer's comments: This fic combines three of my favourite things - John & Mycroft snarking at each other, characters displaying unexpected skills, and Sherlock being appalled. It is hilarious and delightful and somehow manages to be completely plausible.

The heat of anger shifted in John, transmuting into something more like fierce amusement, and a puff of half-laughter escaped his lips. Spanish. Of course the bastard fences Spanish style.
