"What are you doing in the corridors after curfew?" asked Tom, appearing suddenly behind his classmate; as if he had just materialized into thin air. His voice was calm, almost curious. He stood there, head tilted as he examined her like a scientist about to dissect a frog.

His prefect badge was pinned on his cloak, of course. The reminder that he could, if he so desired, get Irene into trouble. But he didn't sound like he was about to punish her. "I hope you're not up to no good?"

"Evil is human. It always has been."

Whitechapel Sentences, Vol. 4

"While I do agree, I would like to point out that if you are attempting to catch me with some kind of 'checkmate', you are not about to achieve the effect that you would hope to."

If evil was human, then all evil acts were purposeful decisions, not predestined instincts that could not be avoided. Of course, the definition of evil was debatable, but Mycroft was well aware that the two of them had both done things that, in the eyes of some, could fall under that banner. Needless to say, he disagreed that anything he had done was actually evil - morally dubious, perhaps, but always a necessity. Irene Adler, on the other hand? He did not believe that she could say the same thing.

Whatever the case, Mycroft found himself with very little desire to debate philosophy. This was especially relevant when it came to the woman before him. Oh yes, there were people with whom he would like to discuss such things with even less (Sherlock was a prime example of that), but why would he ever want to discuss the details of evil with an individual that had a history of nefarious deeds?

"Is this an attempt to admit to something?" Mycroft instead asked. "I must remind you, I am not your therapist."

It's my first blogiversary! Okay, I’m a little late, I actually made this blog on April 1st, but this post isn’t something for Fool’s Day. I made this blog on April Fool’s Day as a literal joke thinking that I’d abandon it in two weeks, if not sooner, but it’s kept up (somehow) for a year now. Even though sometimes I have other things going on in life, I always try to come back to this blog because I’ve grown so much in my writing & adore writing with all of you! I hope this blog survives a few more years, but thanks to everyone who has ever written with me (now and through the very poor writing I started with), plotted with me, &/or talked to me (period, sometimes I’m a lonely soul). x

CLIENTS (in alphabetical order) -- these are people, old and new, who I love to talk to, plot with, & see on my dash! Some of these people I know incredibly well & others I’ve only talked to a few times, but no matter the case, I greatly admire to them & they have positively impacted my time in the rp community. Honestly, this is just a few of them too, because it’s way too hard to tag every single mun I’ve written with, so I may have missed a few.

ADDRESS BOOK -- some of you may recall that Sherlock has a rather bare address book, but he does keep some of his good friends in there. These are people who deserve awards for dealing with me so much. I absolutely adore them & because I put them in the ‘address book”, yes, these are the people who I would fake my death for.

@thewxman​

Sophie, let me reiterate our IMs, I bloody  L O V E  you. I love your portrayal of Irene & I especially love the chemistry between our muses. Honestly, Sherl’s never been so in love until he met your Irene. Thank you SO much for screaming with me in our IMs, doting on our children, making me a better writer (rise up!), & reviving my dead muse so many times over. Also those texting threads in our IMs actually make my day-- they’re just so pure??? AND ALL THE BLOODY LETTERS. That was one of my favourite threads ever. Dropping those subtle (or not so subtle) Hamilton references on the adlock yacht. This is getting long, so I’ll just end it with this-- Sophie, I like you a lot <3

@eloquated

Britt, it’s been way too long & I’m well aware that you’ve stopped rping (or at least put it on pause), but we plotted for FOREVER together so I can’t just leave you out of this. I adore you so very much & I’ll honest that I was iffy about my Sherlock ever falling for a Molly until he met yours. Also, Britt, I was so in awe of your character development (esp Mycie’s)! Thank you for plotting every detail in our long novella threads (the future sherlolly children’s middle names, even) & inspiring me so much (with your lovely edits), I miss you! ( @sherlockrarepairs​ )

SHURLEY-- wow, what would this post be without my sin bin friend? I miss writing with you so much, but I know that you have a million blogs, so I’ll wait patiently for the John muse to resurrect. I love talking to you about our sons (& how badass Mary Watson was, especially), I love that we once had a conversation in all Chuck Shurley gifs, & I love your undying Canadian patriotism. Thank you for writing IMMENSE amounts of angst with me & dragging me (kicking & screaming) into the sin bin with you.

@crownjeweledspider

Tori, you’ve been with me since the very start. You’ve somehow stuck with me this long even with my rubbish writing & flaky muse. Gemlock was the very first invested ship I had on this blog & a part of my Sherl will always love your Gemma. Between our random muse vc to our randomly dark convos (with our terribly morbid senses of humour), I love talking to you. <3 you so much other half of lyri -squeeze- ( @bxnnxrxd )

       ‟ Diana Prince. I work for the British Museum. ” It wasn’t worth giving the other moniker she was commonly known by -- not at this stage, anyway. She wasn’t here to threaten, or to intimidate, only to find out what she was up against. ‟ I understand you are... acquainted with a number of my colleagues. ” It was better to start there, rather than detailing the criminal conspiracy she was here to investigate

"It’s not a gift.” Not really. He held it out to her- a slip of paper with a neat address, and a key taped to the end. “A safe house. Safe from him, too.” As far as Rich knew. Jim hadn’t seemed interested enough to fuck with it, at least, and with his brother’s growing obsession with Sherlock Holmes- well. Better safe than sorry.
