  Summary

  There are times, when even John gets left out. While Sherlock works a case with a mysterious friend, John watches from the relative safety of his armchair. From the sidelines, John & Mycroft share the bitter taste of jealousy as well as a few texts.

   
  [Remember that episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer where Xander got left out and had his own adventure with those crazy dead dudes? Well, that's where this idea sprang from. So, thanks Xander.]

  [John's Blog is now a very pretty green table with borders; links & images [texts between Mycroft & John] have been fixed for CHROME, FIREFOX & IE]
