my favorite part about Sherlock Holmes is that there’s a short story where he’s on vacation and a murder happens and he’s off the clock and just snooping. at one point he basically says to Watson, “ok, so I think this substance is a hallucinogenic drug that kills people, but to prove it I need to test its effects. Watson, do you want to do drugs with me?”

My second favorite part is that the immediate response is “it’d be an honor”
