In light of recent events it seems apt that I make an advertisement offering my services to the general public. I am Sherlock Holmes, consulting detective, amply acquainted with the solution of murders, thefts, arsons, and the generally unsavoury, etc. Inquiries of a general nature may be directed to me at any time, though I take cases at my own discretion, and will generally request an interview to establish both the particulars and the legitimacy of the case. The suspicious may refer to Dr. John Watson for a no-doubt superfluously effusive list of my general accomplishments, and when he proves unconvincing I should be delighted to provide a demonstration of my capabilities. In what will no doubt be vastly more appealing than any of the previous to some of you, I shall add that all services will be rendered entirely gratis.

((ooc: Permissions post/opt-out here, for anything you'd rather Sherlock not pick up on. Additionally, there may be some threadjacking here and there by the aforementioned Dr. Watson since it is his lot in life to babysit this gigantic infant, and if anyone would like to address him instead of Sherlock they can note as much in their subject lines.))

[ so Dorian Gray knew Sherlock Holmes back home. and he is 500% sure that this Sherlock Holmes isn't his Sherlock Holmes mostly because he's not 1800s and knows how to work the communicator.

that being said, he is gonna BUG THE SHIT out of Holmes to see how like his Holmes he is. ]

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson? [ he sounds more amused than anything else. ] Well fine then, I'll be the first, let's hear some of these general accomplishments.

[ Wow, that name sounds familiar for some reason. A book maybe?? But Hiro doesn't read much outside of his robots and sci-fi, so he can't be sure. ]

did you eat a thesaurus as a child?

Are you employed as a consulting detective here? What does that entail, exactly?

Trying to cut in on other hardworking detective work, huh? That's completely unfair.

[Plus, he's named Sherlock Holmes, and after Dorian, she's just going to assume he's five hundred times better than her at everything she might be able to accomplish.

So, that sucks, too.]

[ In his RCMP uniform. Because how can he help himself, he has to speak to Sherlock Holmes. ] I have to say it's a delight to meet someone on the network with such an eloquent grasp of the english language.

Does your partner support you entirely? That is--is he content with your taking cases entirely unpaid? I'm not certain that mine would be so charitable.

Are there mysterious crimes here frequently? I'd bet the local police aren't equipped for imPort criminals.

[His comm tag reads Stormer.]

You are very generous with your talents. What exactly does being a consulting detective entail?

[Melkor is intrigued by these claims, someone who is familiar with murder has to be interesting to say the least.]

I would be interested in seeing a demonstration of your capabilities now.

Why don't we discuss the generally unsavory?

Consulting detective? What, exactly, would that entail?

[Now Conan had reluctantly accepted many things since getting pulled into this whole thing. He'd accepted that he had somehow been granted superpowers through some method he didn't understand yet. He'd accepted that he was living among other people who had also been granted superpowers, many of which functioned in completely illogical and unexplainable ways. That many of the same people believed that they came from other worlds that had very little in common with his own.

He had not accepted that any of this was unexplainable. Only that there were puzzles here that he could not explain. Yet.

But even with all of that, Conan had a hard time believing that this was really what it seemed to be.]

Is your name really Sherlock Holmes?

[When you had spent your entire life cultivating careful skepticism, it was a difficult thing to release.]

So...What do you get out of it?

It's nice to actually meet you, Mr. Holmes, since I've heard a little about you from Dr. Watson. So, do you work with the police and lawyers?

What an odd hobby that you have, Mister Holmes, and a high opinion of your abilities to go right with it, too.

I assume then that this can't be your day job. At least not here.

My, you've drummed up quite a bit of interest. Anything come of it yet?
