[Private to Sherlock]

[What's the point of trying to hide now? Watson went and done messed things up. Jim paces for a moment and then slams a book down on the table in front of the camera with the cover facing the screen. It's a copy of some of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock stories. Jim's face is on the screen next, and he's calm, but not at all happy.]

What. Is this? Does your dear, dear blogger think he's funny? Certainly not. [He throws the book across the room casually and folds his hands on the table again.]

And I thought we were friends, Sherlock. You failed to mention this to me? Is that what a friend does?

Nooooo. Certainly not. You broke my heart. [Fake sniffle.]

[Private to Nygma]

[He's calmed down considerably by this point, but he's still very cold.]

You had my file all along. [Smirk.] You needed only to look harder, obviously.

{Holmes rolls his eyes.} Have you never learned of sarcasm? There is simply no way in which I could have not known of their existence, as I hear about them daily and frequently have them thrust at me in some form of bizarre congratulations.

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

It is not the time for that.

You knew what he said happened.

{Video}

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

I hardly need to know what he said, for I was the one who put so many of those events in motion. He was not present, and wrote his account as he knew it to be. There is and was not an obligation for me to inform you of his works.

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

But that others knew? Of course there was, Sherlock. You should know I detest people keeping things from me.

It makes me very upset.

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

If you were truly, entirely whom you claim to be you should have discovered their existence long ago.

{Video}

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

Just as you should have discovered me?

I see you made a friend. [This is Moriarity isn't it? Neat.]

[Video | Private]

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

We've always been friends. [He draws out that "l" in always rather dramatically.]

[Video | Private]

[truth_is_cold]

Just an old take on a new gag?

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

I suppose one could phrase it like that.

Well, I might as well tell you my theory concerning why the inmates have no hierarchy. Even if they have resources, there is the death toll. He who possesses the most toys has nothing if he has no way to assert his will. I believe if a hierarchy is to be obtain, on must be rid of the death toll, or discover an effective way to silence people. The Admiral has an effective way of reminding us of our place.

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

But why obtain a hierarchy at all?

Why bother with structure when you can simply let it be? This is a wonderful system as it is.

It seemed to be a relevant interest to someone no doubt eyeing the impressionable [Though not necessarily inmates with resources.].

[Video | Private]

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

It is interesting. But you don't know what I'm eyeing.

[Video | Private]

[truth_is_cold]

True. Except for Holmes.

[Video | Private]

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

We are- [And here he stops, finding himself much too sentimental.]

Of course. You are sooooo observant.

{Video}

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

Ah, but I did discover you.

{Video}

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

Only after I grew tired of waiting.

Sherlock, in any form, I am always one step ahead.

{Video}

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

One step ahead? I fail to see how you are any farther for it.

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

[Don't call him on his BS!]

Hmph. And that's why you're still behind. Play with me, Sherlock. This ship is boring.

I can make it exciting for you.

{Video}

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

With mindless puzzles and parlour tricks? Such exercises with no purpose are hardly a cause of excitement.

{Video}

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

Darling, that was just to get your attention.

{Video}

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

And you have it, for the moment, but I warn you—I have little patience from games and trifles.

{Video}

[consultcriminal.livejournal.com]

The time for games are over. Don't worry.

{Video}

[so-meretricious.livejournal.com]

I won't.
