“Answer me,” he growls, charm vanishing. “What does he call you, Lestrade? I’d rather not get it wrong, you see.”
Incompetent. Foolish. Imbecilic. Moronic. And, on one memorable occasion, sycophant, which John had discreetly looked up on his phone while Sherlock raged. Lestrade has come to realize, over the years, that the angrier Sherlock gets, the more obscure his vocabulary becomes.
But - well, there are always exceptions to the rule, especially where Sherlock Holmes is concerned. At the crime scene, on the phone, at the Yard, he’s called “Lestrade” by the detective. Once in a while it becomes “Detective Inspector,” but on Sherlock’s tongue it’s mocking more than anything else. He’s shortened to “L” in text messages.
And now and again - in the first moments after sleep, when they are wrapped lazily in the last vestiges of night and half-concealed from one another; in the hospital, when one of them is full of painkillers and the other is drugged on worry; in the aftermath of the nightmare - he becomes “Greg.”
No. Moriarty can’t have that. He can take everything else - and likely he will - but that name belongs to Sherlock.
