[At first, Sherlock just shakes his head. Sometimes boredom led to cigarettes which could lead to something worse. However, he isn't bored right now; he's embarrassed and annoyed. His nerves were frayed, not curled like springs. So after about two seconds he snatches a bent cigarette from the pack anyway and quickly produces a lighter. The benefits of multiple pockets.]

I've been good for months.

[He says this as he touches the flame of the lighter to the tip, taking a deep breath inward. The lighter clicks shut as he breathes out what little smoke he's willing to part with.]

Then just call me a bad influence.

[ Everyone gets a cheat day, Bradbury figures. This can be Sherlock's. He steps over to the room's only window so he can at least make a pretense of caring about not getting the place all dirtied up, but he'd really like to burn that closet, at least, which he casts an apathetic eye at. What was even holding them in anyway? It doesn't look all that special. ]

[Everything just starts to move more easily in Sherlock's brain once he holds onto the cigarette a little longer. Bradbury's question also helps him focus on other things that aren't the closet. He glances around with great lucidity in his eyes, absorbing everything around them before strolling over to the closest window.]

This is a small public library in Brooklyn. This neighborhood has a particular smell to it. We're about two blocks from the nearest Metro station.

[ He'll never get used to how Sherlock can say that kind of thing with such confidence, but then he supposes he doesn't have to. That's John's job, after all. ]

Then I guess we'd better go.

[ And never, it's implied, speak with anyone about this again. ]
