[ He is a buzzing worker bee, wandering around the city fairly quickly as if trying to find something. Sholmes can find him!!!

And also notice he did not care to show his face to the headcount. ]

[greatdeduction]

Good DAY, sir!

[POPPING UP OUT OF NOWHERE]

I can see that you indeed are not dead!

[malewife]

... And you also survived.

[ Where the fuck did you come from, but whatever. He's used to people just showing up. ]

[greatdeduction]

Indeed I did.

[Great not being dead!]

And how was your night? Besides...well, the assumed.

[malewife]

... Is this an interrogation?

[ He can guess by the song, someone is gone. ]

[greatdeduction]

No? Dear me, I'm merely asking. Clues abound, my dear fellow!

[malewife]

... It was fine, until about eleven or so. We were locked inside, heard a song, then the sirens.

[greatdeduction]

Same with us. But...ah, just to ask. No strange barriers, besides the lock?

[malewife]

There was no magical barrier, but I am sure the doors were enchanted to be such. No force could get the doors open.

[greatdeduction]

Mm. Most concerning.

Are you alright, though?

[malewife]

[ .......... This is weird? ]

Yes. Why are you asking?

[greatdeduction]

...

[LOOKING AT HIM LIKE HE'S STUPID???]

[malewife]

[ GIVES HIM THE SAME LOOK? SHOLMES IS THE STUPID ONE?? ]

[greatdeduction]

[>8I]

I was attempting to ask about your wellbeing because I was worried, you dolt.

[not like SUPER WORRIED but HE WAS JUST BEING POLITE]

[malewife]

[ ?????? He knows Sherlock Holmes tries to be a gentleman, but he also knows he’s an asshole so Joonghyuk is like :dislike:. ]

You can drop pleasantries. [ Addendum: ] You can stay polite, however polite you actually are.

[greatdeduction]

[IGNORING THE SECOND PART HAHA BINCH]

Ah, so you want me to be rude to you from now on? Goodness, sir, you have interesting tastes...

[malewife]

[ YOU ARE HATEFUL ]

… No, that is not what I said. It is a waste of breath to say things you don’t mean.

I don’t need you pretending you care.

[greatdeduction]

[He's silent for a moment.]

[And then he just barks a laugh, obviously amused.]

If a simple act of polite decency gets your hackles up like a particularly grumpy cat, my dear fellow, then that's your problem, not mine. No one said we were going to be bosom buddies.

[malewife]

[ Niah puffs up, hackles bristling much like Sholmes describes?? Because?? Bosom buddies???

Joonghyuk is squinting because what. HE KNOWS THEY ARENT GOING TO BE BUDDIES. They’re not quite on the same wave here. ]

I thought to save us both time, but if you want to sate your mild curiosity and have your daily dose of decency then fine.

[greatdeduction]

[Irene in crow form sees the daemon puffing up and just. Crow laughs. Terrible.]

Do human connections not come from mild curiosity and decency in the first place? [A smile.] I simply think you're interesting, and want to know you better.

[malewife]

[ Why do you and dokja both have black bird forms that just chortle fatly.

Niah calms down, tail swishing. ]

I’m not interested in men.

[ To be clear and I’m sorry he does this in canon too. ]

[greatdeduction]

Oh?

[Huh?]

[And sorry, he has to let out a snort.]

You are quite a handsome young man, but please don't overestimate yourself.

[malewife]

I'm glad that was settled.

[ i'm crying that you came back just for this ]

[greatdeduction]

[me seeing this tag like i HAVE to answer]

Do you not have friends? What a lonely life you live.

[malewife]

[ yoU HAVE TO. Okay. Also, surprising: ]

I do have companions, Herlock Sholmes. [ Anyway. ] I'll be continuing my search. Now you can worry about someone else.
