Unless you commit mass genocide, or a particularly interesting set of serial murders, it's very likely that you will be forgotten fairly quickly after you die.

Most people are, and you are certainly not special enough to be considered otherwise. Gimmicky rather than genius.

Eh? I said all that out loud?

I mean-

JOKING! It was a joke!

I do that.

[howdull]

Not in this circumstance, you don't. Try not to embarrass either of us further by continuing to protest that wasn't the truth.

[Shrill]

IF I HAVE TO DIE AND BE FORGOTTEN, I'M TAKING THE REST OF YOU NEANDERTHALS WITH ME!

[howdull]

Excellent plan. People are sure to remember you if you kill them all - oh, wait, no they won't.

[ooc: Sorry for the wait, I've been on holiday without internet for a few days.]

[harlequinofhate]

As if they'd have the decency to stay dead.

[howdull]

Nobody will remember you, whether they revive or not. You're a petty murderer with mental health issues, once you are gone then everyone will move on with their lives and you will be nothing but a footnote in a forgotten history.

[Joker feels strangely riled up. He should hang up, he knows, but feels somehow compelled to vent his fear and frustration publicly.]

NO! You will not just forget me! I WON'T LET YOU!

[howdull]

[There's a slight pause, and then Sherlock even flicks on his audio for full effect, sounding effortlessly polite and inquisitive.]

I'm sorry, who were you again?

[harlequinofhate]

I'd rather take you all with me when I go than let you forget me!

[howdull]

Too late, you're already forgotten. Too dull to hold my attention, at least. Goodbye, enjoy obscurity.

[And he hangs up.]
