Welcome to week two, Teens Who Are Definitely Searching for Love!

Hopefully everyone got a lot of rest over the weekend, and are bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for the upcoming week, because there are a few things of interest this week.

But first, some changes of note in the house!

First: there is a giant rectangular box on the living room table, addressed to Lessing. It is a care package. The only thing in it is his sword.

There is some Bauernbrot bread on the counter. Ask Lessing about that too.

There is now a hot tub near the pool. It’s large enough to seat about six teens comfortably, but you can get more in there if you really try for some reason.

Okay I think that’s everything. Additionally, Tsukasa is here early this week! He’s looking pretty perky, seemingly recovered from the Match Ceremony, and he’s got some interesting info to share with everyone.

[He’s just going to side step whatever the hell is going on here as he makes his way to the kitchen for coffee.

Carnival gifts? Cheap toys for kids? Yeah he’s just walking past.]


(Aka: I got him in the room which was the best I could do.)

[singurarity]

[ Too late, she's already trotting towards him to offer him one of those Sherlock Holmes pipes. It has bubbles, of course. Sanji is the only smoker here. ]

Don't throw it immediately away and I promise to tell you about working with the actual Sherlock Holmes?

[flaweddetective]

[He is deeply and sincerely not impressed with this. And it shows. He also notes tweedle dum and tweedle dee got matching crowns to perpetuate the fantasy. Everyone in this house is a disaster.

But. The promise of being told real stories about Sherlock Holmes? Normally he'd be skeptical of a tale like that. But what she's told him so far about her work is wild enough to believe. Sort of like personas. So impossible that someone couldn't possibly make it up and be serious about it. That and with she how she waited and even hesitated to even talk about it and the genuine exhaustion she expressed while going into it. She's telling the truth about this.]

Sherlock Holmes, huh? [You've got him interested.] You have Arsène Lupin and James Moriarty in your bag of famous people too?

[singurarity]

[ She sure is. ]

James Moriarty, older and younger. I never got the chance to meet Lupin, though. I keep wondering if that'll happen one day.

[ One never knows. ]

[flaweddetective]

[Older and younger. Interesting...]

What sort of differences exist between the two? What are they like?

[singurarity]

Mm... younger Moriarty is pretty full of himself and obnoxious? [ Wow. ] Older Moriarty's more like a grandpa who keeps talking about how he'll lead me to evil but then keeps me out of trouble, so it's kind of ridiculous. His mind's really sharp, though...

[flaweddetective]

I'd love to pick their brains... Moriarty being a doting grandpa was not was I expecting.

Then, I guess I have to ask, what is the Mister Holmes like?

[He pockets the bubble pipe as they talk.]

[singurarity]

Already had things figured out from the very beginning with everything we got into but guided us into figuring it out. Really eloquent.

[ A fond smile, softer. ]

I really admire him. That composure was amazing.

[flaweddetective]

Well... he is the most famous detectives even if he is fictional.

[A genuinely impressive detective who never had to fake a case a day in his life. He also sound better coming from her than he does in the books.]

You can probably learn a lot more from him than me.

[singurarity]

I think it's a little easier for me to learn from someone who bothers to explain things instead of standing there with a mysterious little smile, trust me.

[flaweddetective]

Haha~ I do suppose that's true. Well, if there's eve any mysteries that need solving we can go through the steps together.

We do have a partnership, after all.

not here

[ bombastic side eye..... he hates whimsy that much? what a loser... ]
