For TheConfirmedBachelor

Irene had not actually expected Doctor Watson to take her up on her offer. But it truly is just sex; for the two people in love with perhaps the most complicated man in all of London. Irene might be brilliant but she owns up to her body's basic needs.

She doesn't spend too long choosing a bit of lingerie for this particular meeting, black lace, something fairly standard. She wraps herself in a silk robe and has a glass of wine while she waits.

When the doorbell finally does ring, she takes a leisurely stride to go open the door, she wouldn't want to seem too eager.

So Irene actually answered the door, on what might be the most un-professional appointment she could possibly have, in full vamp-seductress finery? John was hard-pressed not to snicker at the absurdity of it.

Then again, that might be her version of business casual? John was dressed in his own business casual at the moment but he was fully decent and presentable for being out in public. Yes, the antique doctor's black bag he carried was silly-looking too. Very silly-looking, he had to admit. So they were both playing a little bit of dress up.

"Good afternoon, Ms. Adler. Have I caught you at a bad time?"

This could hardly be a clinical scene anyway. John wouldn't be able to put on that kind of performance and still manage to enjoy himself at all. He hadn't thought to bring a proper costume either despite how easy it would have been.

As it was, carrying his doctor's bag as a costume piece easily made this one of the kinkiest things he'd ever tried. "Well, anyplace you could lie down comfortably would work. I usually think of a bed for this sort of thing, maybe you've heard of it? A sofa does the job nicely as well."

"Well, that depends." No two ways about it, Irene was truly lovely and she knew how to work it to the greatest effect. Though they hadn't spent all that much time together, John had known her long enough to think of her as person as well as an accomplished femme fatale. He also had plans, which gave him something else to focus on and that helped prevent his staring at her bewitched.

John tugged open his doctor's bag and started rummaging about in it. "Medicine has changed a great deal since the late 1700s, mostly for the better of course." He pulled out a box of gloves and started tugging on a pair.

"However, there's one practice in particular that was developed around that time. It was genuinely beneficial to health, became all the rage, and unfortunately fell into disuse when electric powered appliances became widely available."

He gave her a tiny paternal frown of disapproval, eyebrows up instead of furrowed to emphasize that it was entirely facetious.

"Back in those days, a lady would never be undressed in front of anyone who wasn't her husband. Doctors were expected to reach blindly up a woman's skirts to do an exam, or dispense with the exam altogether and offer various solutions of morphine and cocaine from a respectful distance."
