@saxophonesandcuesticks started following you.

That has got to be one of the most ominous messages I’ve read all day, and in this mansion I have to somehow read minds 24/7, so that kinda says a lot.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Well, I am capable of advanced shadow magic, so magical copies of myself could very well stalk you at any time.

[mr-murder-ore]

Oh? I’d feel ever so appreciated if you did. So much work on your part just to unnerve the hell out of me. Props to you, sir. Props to you.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Unfortunately, I cannot indulge this Very Polite request, seeing as I have better things to do, like getting myself back up to proper health so shell doesn't break every time I hit or grip something too hard.

So my step brothers dog came down the stairs too fast and ran into the wall because he was excited….

Hey there! The name’s Problem Sleuth, and I’m the best detective in Midnight City And you are?

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Wow, a sleuth who doesn't recognize a Midnight Crew member. Never thought I'd see the day.

Diamonds Droog here. Nice to meet you.

The Regret

[kaleighbytheway]

This is super hilarious to me. Because generally speaking, owls are way less intelligent than other raptors. So this moment is kinda like a grown adult suddenly getting slammed into place by an overgrown five year old.

Every catlover knows that cat’s paws smeels like cinema pop corn, it’s a fact.

Moving on a Monday.

@saxophonesandcuesticks

It was…. sort of odd to think that just in a few hours that Sleuth would be able to sleep somewhere that wasn’t his office- or even under his desk for that matter— or the imagination fort… And he’ll be in an actual house or apartment and not some… small room with a fake window in a large building. No, sir.

And in just a few minutes he gets to meet this new Droog and… hopefully things work out? His experiences over the years have taught him many things- like… Most Droogs would happily let him walk away without saying a word just because they don’t want to get involved with his “emotions” or they would talk with Sleuth a couple of times, get to know him well, then disappear. Matter of fact, that is what happens with most of the people he meets. They just disappear.

Regardless, he is now standing affront of a door, nervously, a couple of boxes being taken with him in one of those classic metal holders with four wheels and a long handle…. although, this one isn’t red. It is plain metal with a lot of maroon paint chips. He then knocks on the door. Is this the right place…? He hopes it is- he was more than sure it is because he kept checking over and over if he typed it right into the MPS. You know… the GPS for the multiverse.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Droog opened the door almost immediately after sleuth knocked, and he welcomed the other in with a warm smile. "Hey, come on in. Making a veggie stir fry with fried rice for dinner. Sound good?" He asked, leading the gumshoe to the spare bedroom in his huge, lush flat decorated tastefully in reds, blacks, greys, and whites. Much like the card decks the crew is known for.

The spare bedroom was tastefully modest, Droog took everything down to give the sleuth room for his own way of decorating. "It's a bit plain, but we can make a shopping trip to go get decor if you'd like."

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

This is the greatest thing to happen in years, honestly. Thank you so much, Droog.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Hey, don’t mention it. Always happy to help someone in need.

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

I’ll yell it off a mountain if I wanted to, cuz I gotta hand it to you, you’re a pretty good guy. Not like the good bad guy but you are good, but you’re also…

I’ll just… shut my trap. I probably sound dumb… Uh… I’ll be there in a few….

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Haha, I get what you're saying. See you in a bit.

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

This is the greatest thing to happen in years, honestly. Thank you so much, Droog.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Hey, don't mention it. Always happy to help someone in need.

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

Well aren’t you just unbelievable? When should I head over?

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Whenever you'd like. I'll send you the coordinates.

[Pvt] [REDACTED],[REDACTED] There you go

[trauma-rat]

things I want: love and affection things I have: trauma and touch starvation

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

I’m vegetarian anyways, so I don’t think you really need to worry all too much on my accord!

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

You're welcome to anything in the rooftop garden. It's all veggies and herbs

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

I’ve been trying to take up cooking- I’ve only successfully made a couple of things, but maybe you can try and teach me in spare time.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Absolutely. And I grow or make pretty much everything I can for my dishes which includes herbs, veggies, and what not. Breads and pastas are fun to make as well. As for meats, I buy those

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

Not like you’re from my timeline anyways. Plus, I really need something better to do than drink away my life in my office because I’m a simple folk and a loathsome piece of shit. Hell, who says detectives don’t do illegal stuff either. Me simply drinking is illegal, all of it’s bootleg.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

As long as you don’t mind cats or dogs. I have two cats, a dog, and a spare room if you’d like

[sleuthing-problems-deactivated2]

… That sounds amazing. I mean, I’ve make shifted my office into a studio to live in so that sounds even more than amazing. And animals? Sign me up. If they won’t eat my lizard, then sure.

Thank you.

[saxophonesandcuesticks]

Not a problem at all. The cats are more or less pretty lazy, they prefer batting at shoe laces from where there laying down at.

Not to mention I do cook, and liquor isn't illegal here. Too many protests against it.
