Author's Note: Totally forgot that I still have to post the drabbles for the master post at the end. <.<" So I'll repost now all drabbles from 01-10 and then continue to cross post the next drabbles.
For everyone who does not know what I am talking about - see
this post.

Prompt: July 3 ~~~
The Hospital Ship
by W. H. Littlejohn

There is a green-lit hospital ship,
Green, with a crimson cross,
Lazily swaying there in the bay,
Lazily bearing my friend away,
Leaving me dull-sensed loss.
Green-lit, red-lit hospital ship,
Numb is my heart, but you carelessly dip
There in the drift of the bay.

There is a green-lit hospital ship,
Dim as the distance grows,
Speedily steaming out of the bay,
Speedily bearing my friend away
Into the orange-rose.
Green-lit, red-lit hospital ship,
Dim are my eyes, but you heedlessly slip
Out of their sight from the bay.

There was a green-lit hospital ship,
Green, with a blood-red cross,
Lazily swaying there in the bay,
But it went out with the light of the day -
Out where the white seas toss.
Green-lit, red-lit hospital ship,
Cold are my hands and trembling my lip:
Did you make home from the bay?


Author's Note: As a personal challenge I am going to try to write all July prompts as one big story or at least try to connect them loosely. As such this one here is a prequel to A nightly storm, but can be read on it's own.I hope the next prompts will allow me to manage this. :)

Title: Health Day
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Watson, Irregulars, Holmes, Mrs. Hudson
Summary: The Irregulars take Watson for a walk. (July Prompt 4)
WordCount
: 361
Prompt:
July 4 ~~~ Celebration of a non-British holiday  (either legitimate or not; crack/fluff is acceptable for this prompt)
Author's Note: Quite difficult prompt, but I was able to somehow squeeze it into this little story's universe. This story takes place after A nightly storm, but can be read on it's own.
And the mentioned holiday is the Health Day celebrated in Turkmenistan.

Title: Little Note
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Watson (mentioned Holmes)
Summary: How actions can be misunderstood and words clear up the confusion. (Prompt 5)
WordCount: 171
Prompt: July 5 ~~~ Quote/adaptation:  If actions speak louder than words, how is the pen mightier than the sword?
Author's Note: Nothing fancy; I am a little disappointed at the moment, but what's more I've got a horrible headache. ._. This here can be read on it's own again, but as in my personal goal to connect all July Prompts, it happens before Misty Sway.

Title: To follow
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Watson; Holmes; Mycroft (somehow)
Summary: To follow a white bunny and a talk with a caterpillar. (July Prompt 6)
WordCount: 459
Prompt: July 6 ~~~ Wacky, off-the-wall crossover - the weirder, the better.
Author's Note: You don't make it easy for me to meet my personal challenge (connect all July prompts to one big story), ya know. <.<" It is not a huge crossover, but I wish to reach my own goal with these stories and this was the only way for me to do it. Thanks to my mother for part of the idea. :)
This happens sometime after Nightly Storm, but can be read on its own as always.

Title: Falling
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Watson; Holmes
Summary: Holmes falls first, but Watson follows him. (July Prompt 7)
WordCount: 229
Prompt: July 7 ~~~ Falling  (however you want to interpret or extrapolate from that, is up to you)
Author's Note: Ah, a nice prompt for my stories. :) And I even got a connection to the last one! xD This story happens (almost directly) before Misty Sway, but as always can be read on its own.

Sorry for the unimaginative title, 'am still tired. *yawn*

Title: First Snow
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Watson
Summary: The first snow turns London white. (July Prompt 8)
WordCount: 382
Prompt: July 8 ~~~ Picture

Author's Note: My first idea for this prompt was to use it as an ending for my story. But after the first sentences I got a different idea for this and used it to get another major aspect for the story. So now I have something else to link future prompts to. :)
This story happens after Health Day, but can be read on it's own.

Title: Dying Soul
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Lestrade, Holmes
Summary: Lestrade looks into Mr. Holmes' eyes and sees a dying soul. (July Prompt 9)
WordCount: 438
Prompt: July 9 ~~~ Stress/exhaustion or stress management
Author's Note: I know that this drabble is not really Watson-centric, but I hope that it still counts as this drabble belongs to a larger story which is Watson-centric. As I read the prompt I just had to write about Holmes after Watson's kidnapping; so in the end it's still somehow Watson-centric. :P
This happens after First Snow (yesterday's prompt), but as always can be read on it's own.

Title: Premonition
Author: Alaylith
Rating: G
Characters: Watson, Holmes
Summary: At midnight Holmes' call wakes Watson from a worrisome dream. (July Prompt 10)
WordCount: 357
Prompt: July 10 ~~~ Midnight summons
Author's Note: Got a little bit carried away from the prompt, but this just wanted to be written. We are jumping back to the first half of my story, right before Falling. Slowly it gets a little bit confusing. XD I am curious what will happen next, the story is just as surprising for me as it is for you. :b
Oh and now we finally got a timeline for this story - post-hiatus! :) Not that this is very important, but it just happened now. ^^
