Holmes readily accepts whatever's thrust at him, not overtly surprised at the sudden outlash. In fact, it seems as if he's doing his best to make himself invisible since that last bit of input, observing rather than taking an overly active role in the proceedings.


The detective can't seem to find it in himself to be quite so furious as his company, and so he simply steps aside to assure that he's anything but in the way, keeping a sort of idle watch on the pair making their exit. There'll be plenty of time for his own agenda later, he reasons, and it's only then that he actually takes an interest in the items he's been handed, starting to overlook them with an unusual amount of care lest he blow something up in the process.
