He is the best of the professionals, I think, and we may need his assistance.

{Holmes about Lestrade in The Hound of The Baskervilles by A. C. Doyle}

After being publicly disgraced for working alongside the falsely accused Sherlock, Lestrade is ousted from the Yard and his wife leaves him for good. A year later, John runs into Lestrade and finds the man has lost complete control of his life. And has also apparently started his own little war against the concept of shoes.

“And exactly how many times did he fall out of a window?” 

“Oh, it’s all a bit of a blur, Detective Inspector. I lost count.”

“Put the gun down, Detective Inspector”

A very quick gesture drawing for dear Oftortoises  who was very responsible and finished her homework! 

Lestrade was not only a punk, but a bit of a Marxist as a youth. Awww yeah hittin’ all the kinks this week. 

ENJOY TOR!
