Drabble #47 for 100_women - Sally Donovan (BBC Sherlock)
Title: Ordinary
Wordcount: 100
Character: Sally Donovan
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Prompt: #47 - Paint
She hadn’t always been ordinary. Once upon a time, Sally Donovan used to read Agatha Christie novels under her blankets with a flashlight. She wrote stories of a young girl who solved crime. She would carefully lay down newspapers around her watercolours and paint a cheerful scene in a meadow, the body, hidden just under the tree, waiting to be discovered by the plucky heroine. But that kind of thing was wrong and bad and we mustn’t draw such things.
When Sherlock Holmes calls her ordinary, she calls him a freak and doesn’t mourn the girl she used to be.
