No idea where I'm going yet, so that'll be pretty easy.

[fanboyascended]

Didn't ever see myself becoming a Cyberman, so I guess it's time to get back to work.

It's a little comforting, though, isn't it?

[warriorscribe]

Because you are already clever enough to be capable of greatness now, and you have so much to grow into. So much more you might learn. I know you resent it. But you will understand better in time, I know you will.

[It's probably - no, most definitely - something she would have heard from someone else. She may even have a better frame of reference than he does, an idea of the biological drive behind it. But he says it anyway. Not being the first to say it doesn't make it any less true.]

Unfortunately for us both, Mycroft isn't behind this. I'm Sherlock Holmes, by the way.

[howdull]

I've already been nominated on numerous occasions, but I keep being brought back in.

[As do most everyone else who ends up 'voted out' by being killed.]

My natural charismatic charm, I suppose.

[advanced]

Busy doing what?

[He knows other people have seemingly 'gone home' after dying, but it's still far from the norm.]

[not_harker]

[She's glad that they're communicating via typing, so he can't see the embarrassing rush of excitement to her face. Now she just has to try not to gush.]

It's a great honour to speak with you, Mr. Holmes.

[jmencalisse]

I wear it on my wrist.

[Okay, so, if this person REALLY doesn't know what a wristwatch is...]

It's very valuable.

[jmencalisse]

Mmh.

I have a question for you.

[jmencalisse]

No. Would hate that, actually.

I just want to know about the, the... small print first.

[jmencalisse]

Can't be that stuck up if I'm talking to you now, can I.

Good point. Hey, you let me know if you stumble across something resembling poutine, I'll keep my eyes open for your cannoli.

[jmencalisse]

[Hang on, he knows this story!]

Yeah but who gave me the shitty shrinking potion?

[jmencalisse]

Accomplished how? If nobody listens to anyone?

[Dubious.] I'm a little lost in translation there, I think.

[zunesareawesome]

Uh, okay. Shoot.

Copper?

That's cuivre? The stuff they put into coins?

[jmencalisse]

Why are you listening to a cat? What makes a man listen to a cat?

[jmencalisse]

[Well, he can get behind that.]

So what's your strategy?

[rubikscomplex]

"spaghetti principle"
throw everything at the wall
and see what sticks
i've been running experiments
solving any of the minor puzzles i come across
sometimes they throw the dog a bone if you're a good enough boy
sd cards with programs
sometimes files with videos of things that happened before we were here
sometimes supplies

[jmencalisse]

Yes.

'As a rule?' You one of those TV is just the degeneration of society kind of guys?

[jmencalisse]

[It doesn't and David scoffs at the screen.]

You sure about that? You guys seem really adamant about your intrigues and violence.

[ex_this_ismydesign36]

No. I'm just really anti-social.

[jmencalisse]

Well, that would do it.

Takes a special kind of anti-social to shy away from TV though. If the screen's too much how do you deal with the real world?

[ex_this_ismydesign36]

Poorly.

[ Kinda walked into that one David. ]

[jmencalisse]

Hello Beckett.

[Horrible overdone AA impression? Check.]

That's good. To verbalize what is bothering you, it is an important first step. Why don't you tell us how you really feel?

[jmencalisse]

[Well, shit. He sure did.]

Anti-social AND a fucking smartass. That's a fun combo.
