Warnings: None
Prompt: You, Sherlock and John are all discussing that legendary multicoloured dress.
Spoilers: None
==============================
"Sherlock? Come here!" You said loudly over the violin music that echoed throughout the flat. "John, you're coming too. Whether you like it or not!" You announced to the kitchen from the sofa by the wall, earning a groan in response.
"What is it (Y/N)? I'm trying to think." Sherlock informed, striding over to where you sat with your laptop, sitting down next to you.
"Get your head around this one." You challenged, tilting your laptop with one of your hands. "What colour is this dress? Black and blue or white and gold?"
His eyes scanned the picture with furrowed bows, still holding his violin and bow.
"Black and blue." He said finally, probably debating in his head about what you're meant to see and what people actually see. He hesitated for a moment and looked back to you. "Do people actually think it's white and gold?" He asked softly.
"Yep." You responded immediately, to which Sherlock smirked.
"Morons." He murmured.
"Oi! Who are you calling moron?" John's distant muffled voice could be heard from the kitchen, as well as approaching footsteps. Then it clicked, and your face turned to one of horror.
"Sherlock!" You whisper-shouted. "You just called John a moron!" Your lips started to twitch upward when he firstly didn't understand.
"I didn't call John a moron! I called all the people who have poor eyesight and can visualise white and gold... Oh." He looked up to see John leaning against the doorframe with crossed arms, blatantly unimpressed.
"John, what colours do you see?" You turned the laptop over so John could have a look.
"I see white and gold. How do you see blue and black?" John inquired.
"How do you see white and gold?" Sherlock shot back, placing his violin down. Pretty soon, Sherlock and John's overlapping voices became too much, so you sent Lestrade a text to tell him to come over to Baker Street. Now.
Only when Lestrade's pounding footsteps could be heard, Sherlock and John ceased their bickering to see their unexpected visitor.
"Y/N texted me. Said you're becoming unbearable. So tell me what the hell is going on?!" He said as dramatically as he entered.
"What colour is this dress? Black and blue or white and gold?" You simply inquired, swivelling the laptop around.
"White and gold. Why?" Lestrade looked confused.
"No, no no!" Sherlock groaned, ruffling his curls with you thought was utterly adorable. "Why can't you see that it's blue and black?!"
I see that I accidentally started World War III.
Suddenly, Lestrade turned to you.
"What do you see Y/N? Black and blue or white and gold?"
(Sorry if you see white and gold!)
"I see blue and black." You replied.
John and Lestrade sighed, knowing that this just fed Sherlock's ego.
"I'm glad I'm not the only sane person here." Sherlock mumbled. Lestrade and John exchanged glances with an odd look, as if they've been planning something neither of you knew about.
"You want to play it like that then?" Lestrade commented, clearing his throat.
Uh oh.
"What have you done?" You asked suspiciously, shooting daggers into their skulls.
"Oh well... You know... Merry Christmas!" John threw his arms out and you tilted your head slightly in confusion. "And a Happy New Year... Sorry, did I miss something?" You scratched your head.
"Y/N, would you come with me for a moment?" Sherlock grabbed your wrist and dragged you into the kitchen.
"What's going on?" You asked Sherlock. Where was this day going?
"I believe it's a thing called pranking." Sherlock rubbed his hands together.
"Nope." You shot him down. "I'm off for a nap. It's World War III over there." You started to walk away but then turned around. "Why pranking? They just see something different to you." Sherlock sighed.
"Because I believe that they've already pranked us." You already turned back with a roll of your eyes. "At least help me with the case. I need to go over to Bart's. Come with?" He invited with pleading eyes.
You rolled your eyes. "Fine. But I swear you owe me."
Sherlock grabbed his coat.
"By the way," he started. "Take a breath or two. Slows down the pulse." He click-winked at you before nodding towards Lestrade and John. "Good day."
END
===============================
Okay, I know... Bit rubbish. I didn't even know where it was going but it was too late to change it. I was going to split it into a "if you see blue and black" and "if you see white and gold" thing but it was just hitting dead ends again and again. I'm sorry for that. Disappointed you, I have. Hopefully other ones will be better, and for other ones I need requests. So request away. I'm not very busy for the next few days so request like crazy. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
That's all.
Stay Strong Guys,
