I thought I had mentioned somewhere about wanting to write an Irene/Holmes fic involving their time at the Grand. It'd be something like Irene coming to Holmes for help for something(I'm thinking someone's trying to kill her, hence the room; he's there to protect her). She tries to seduce him and, although he's clearly interested in her, he is asexual* and isn't comfortable with her advances. At one point, I think I"d have her commiserate with Watson over the frustration of mixed signals (as they perceive them).
(*Personally, I don't see Holmes as asexual; I see him as a very passionate man, but one whose passions run very deeply and are hard to uncover. Once they are, though.... *rwoar*)
I swear that, in the final scenes, Irene isn't wearing heeled boots until Blackwood pushes her off. Is she and I'm just not seeing those heels?
Also, I love that Watson's kind of bitchy towards Clarkie (Clarke? I can't figure if Clarkie is a nickname or not). It suits my Holmes finds solace in him after Watson leaves and Watson doesn't like it theory.

You know, I don't remember Irene's footwear. I liked the bracers too much to care. ;)
