100wordsTitle: Manipulate
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (ACD)
Rating: Gen
Notes: Watson rants at the end of "The Dying Detective." The original story, not the BBC Sherlock episode.
“God, it makes me sick to think of! I remember how awed I was in the early days by your ‘extraordinary delicacy of touch.’ I wrote those very words, didn’t I? Oh, how I used to watch and marvel that those hands, blotted with ink and stained with chemicals, and their ability to manipulate fragile philosophical instrument. I never dreamt that I would become one of those fragile instruments, Holmes. You have manipulated me. You have lied to me. You have relied upon my devotion without deigning to trust me, as a friend and a partner, with the whole truth!”
