Reccer's comments: Yes, I am reccing a Christmas-themed fic in June. ;)

It is so delightful, and Sherlock is at Peak Sherlock with regards to doing stuff behind Joan's back, only this time it isn't malevolent. But there is an ulterior motive all the same.

An excerpt behind the cut...

"So," Watson asked as she looked around, "I don't imagine you've been invited to any Christmas parties?"

"Nope. You neither?"

"We'll just have to have our own," Watson said decisively.

"Just the two of us? Handing each other our gifts while we enjoy TV dinners and sparkling cider?"

"We could have some friends over," Watson countered. "Alistair might want to come, and Alfredo."

"Ah," said Sherlock. He looked thoughtful. "Oh, we should invite Captain Gregson, too. And Detective Bell, maybe?"

"Yeah, that'd be fine."

Turning, Watson headed to her room. "I should probably get started on the invitations. Any idea when we should have-"

Then it hit her. She turned and faced Sherlock, who was grinning like a cat.

"You've already sent invitations."

Sherlock nodded. "Wrote them up this morning, sent them off as soon as you went off to the cinema."

"So when's the party?"

"The twenty-fourth, at eight P.M."
