Work Text:
Sherlock: Molly.
Molly: *looks up from microscope* yeah?
Sherlock: Sherlock.
Molly: What’re you on about now?
Sherlock: *ignoring Molly* Molly-Sherlock. Hmm.
Molly: *stares at Sherlock confused and goes back to looking at samples*
Sherlock: *mumbles under his breath* No. No, that won’t do. We’re not a child’s candy. *mumbles* Eh. No. Rhythms with bullocks. Not acceptable.
Molly: Sherlock! Please, I-I just need a few minutes of peace and quiet please.
Sherlock: *still mumbling* That’s unfortunate. Same initials as my dear brother then I suppose. Holmes-Hooper: No. Molly-Holmes… Molmes: No. We’re not a line of Ikea furniture.
Molly: *starts to smile*
Sherlock: Holmes-Molly… Holly. *ponders thought* No. Too Christmassy.
Molly: How about Sooper! Of course spelled with two o’s but also sounding like the u from super like a super hero, although I guess-
Sherlock: *kisses Molly suddenly on the forehead* Brilliant. Thank you.
~Minutes pass and they continue working~
Molly: You think about that often?
Sherlock: Think about what?
Molly: Oh. You know. Combining our names like that. *blushes*
Sherlock: I certainly don’t want to leave that up to the press. God knows they’d come up with something frilly like Sherlolly.
Molly: It could be worse. It could sound dreadfully boring like Mollock.
Sherlock: Oh, I hate boring.
Molly: I know. *smiles up at him*
