Action for Castle | VIDEO - 1ST CASE

[deductions]

[ The feed turns on to a scruffy looking Englishman with a pipe wedged in his mouth. He is dressed in a rather ratty and disgusting looking red dressing gown. If you do approach him, he smells faintly of chemicals and tobacco. His eyes bare the faintest hints of lethargy. ]

Duly taking the time to praise our gods on their impeccable performance thus far. Their writings imply that they will ensure our entertainment yet there has yet to be neither a cocaine solution in front of me nor casework. Surely, this should stand as a mark against them.

[ His tone has a hint of dryness, perhaps bite a bit mocking when the gods are mentioned. He takes a puff perhaps to calm himself down. His eyes fix on the device, intensely – scrutinizing – analyzing. Holmes means business. ]

I have questions Asgard. Questions that are in need of answering. Do not regale me with trivialities. Idiocy will be ignored.

[Finally!]

About time you got here. There was not enough sarcasm in the city.

[Intensely relieved? Yes. Will Watson show it?

Please. They're English.]

[deductions]

[ Oh, good. Someone familiar. There are hints of a smile reserved for the man. He will try to deduce what he can about the other man, restructure and deconstruct Watson's words. ]

That was hardly sarcasm, my good fellow.

⎯detach from romanticizing as you do. Explain this predicament.

[clockeyes]

Ooh, then ask away, then! I'll answer any questions you have, I've been here for a while.

[...Yes, that is a red-headed man with clocks for eyes answering your post Sherlock, WHAT DO.]

EEE! HELLO YOU i really liked him in the test drive *u *

[deductions]

[ Sherlock will unabashedly stare at the man with clocks for eyes. He weighs matters into his own hands. There are a number of questions he should bother the man with. The cultural aspects of Asgard. What is counted as normal, etcetera. But he'll really focus on the one aspect that strikes him as crucial. ]

A brief moment of intrigue. Your eyes, are they ever in need of winding?

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

[Why not? It's not like there's much else to do when it's so foggy out.]

Ask away!

[ VIDEO ]

[deductions]

[ It seemed the people of Asgard proved to be quite friendly so far. He will take that fact into account. ]

The scope of area which you are so inclined?

[ He offers the faintest of smiles. ]

A reference as to what I can inquire.

[tardisblue]

If you don't ask them, people can't answer.

[ VIDEO ]

[deductions]

A methodology I will employ to wean out who and who are not capable of answering.

[ Trite smile. ]

[brighthearted]

I'd be happy to answer some questions for you, sir.

[deductions]

An area of expertise, if you will - Madam. I need to be aware of exactly who I'm dealing with before I tread on with my inquiry. [ Dryly with the faintest hints of a smirk. ]

text.

[flattered]

I hear ya. Can't say much about any cocaine solutions [ what with being a disney character and all ;; ] or work, but if the best they've got in terms of entertainment is exploding heads, I think they need to re-evaluate their definition of the word just a little.

VIDEO

[deductions]

[ Oh, texting. Words. Typing in words in this mess of misaligned letters is difficult. So - he'll keep to video! That's what is all in his capacities to be figured out now. ]

Are exploding heads a common exhibition in this world?

[ He's trying to hide the absolute giddyness in his voice and it fails terribly so. ]

[Video]

[aeterno_arma]

[You can see the face of a teen with green eyes, dark skin and light purple hair. It's a bit hard to tell if it's a man or a woman.]

What sort of questions sir? I've been here for a few months I will try to answer them as well as i can.

VIDEO

[deductions]

[ He will however try to discern because it's Holmes. And he needs to know these things random stranger. HE NEEDS TO KNOW. ]

And your area of expertise? An inquiry made so I can offer you the appropriate line of questions.

[sebasher]

[Oh, good god, man. Clean yourself up. Look presentable.

--Not that Sebastian can talk. He was covered in blood and nursing a few broken fingers for his first network post.]

Don't go mocking the gods too quickly, now. If anything, they know how to put on a good show. [A show of exploding people' heads. Yes. Good. Very good. That little display earned Moran's respect.]

Might I suggest actually asking questions if you want answers so badly, chum?

Re: video;

[deductions]

[ Uh yeah - no. B( This is presentable. ]

I will mock anything in my own pace, sir. [ He notes the small patterns of a more - dated speech. He realizes then that he will have to carry on with the conversation to deduce the year the man came from, but with what evidence had presented itself before him - he wouldn't be surprised if he and this new fellow were close in date. ]

State the topics in which you are familiar with and then I will bombard you with the appropriate line of questions.

[watsowned]

Ask away then, good sir. Answering questions is my mutant power.

video

[deductions]

You are in possession of mutation, madam? What is it's cause? An exposure to the chemical?

[zothiquekey]

[Moran recognizes the name, but she certainly doesn't know a Sherlock Holmes who wears atrocious women's clothing. It seems like these alternate versions are getting increasingly more ridiculous.]

You may ask. However, my answer will not be different from the others'.

VIDEO

[deductions]

[ RUDE!!! IT WAS RATHER FASHIONABLE IN HIS ERA. He hasn't seen a Moran with boobs either. So hmphf. Her reply earns him a trite look. ]

You're being grossly unimaginative.

LMAO SORRY FOR SO MANY REPOSTS i wish i would still edit

[consults]

Boredom and stupidity are two things that never lack in this town. The few interesting murders have already come and gone quite some time ago.

[there was one thing that struck Sherlock as odd in this man's introduction. He had not met many people who used a cocaine solution as a replacement to working on cases. Just like he did before quitting. Sort of.

A detective then. Private, too, since a drug addict wouldn't work at a police station. English, London, but the clothes suggest a different time person. And the name, oh of course.]

It isn't every day you meet another version of yourself, I must say.

[deductions]

[ Watson had briefly mentioned the other. And he piqued his own curiosity. There is much play on pronouns as he attempts to formulate words. How did you address yourself. It was most curious of an occasion. The man on the screen was certainly younger. Thinner. Considerably paler as well. ]

Certainly not. We should be wary of disappointing ourselves.

[ His hands come together, finger tips against finger tips a perfect mirror to a mannerism that Sherlock is victim of ]

The first test, what drew you to that conclusion?

[That robe is the single most disgusting thing Conan's seen all week -- and that's including the forensics textbooks he's been flicking through in his down time. Pausing to size up this walking health wreck, Conan pauses.]

[Pipe.]

[Oh, oh he's been watching the network readily and idly pausing here and there to make note of the latest batch of arrivals--]

Hullo! I believe your companion mentioned something about my paperwork and you completing it; but that's hardly a proper greeting. [Said with hardly any show at all. In fact his words are punctuated so dryly he'd go up in flames if somebody lit a match.] Surely you'd consider courtesy anything but trivial.

[deductions]

It is utterly trivial. I am a curt believer in getting to the point of things. Courtesies are nothing but messy and full of rules that benefit no one.

[ A beat when he comes to terms as to who exactly he's speaking with. He offers a small smile, muttering under his breath. ]

Follow your spirit and upon this charge - Cry, God for Harry, England and Saint George.

[charming_jerk]

Questions? Alright, shoot. I got time. 'S about all we get around here.

[deductions]

An area of expertise, good sir. I should like to know how I can maximize the information I can attain.

voice.

[repulsors]

[ Huh. Huh. He's just going to stick to a voice reply for now, because.

Something is weird here. ]

So, uh. Okay. What counts as idiocy, exactly? Because I have a question or two of my own. First: who are you? Second..yeah no, who are you?

VIDEO

[deductions]

[ The voice is familiar but off. He doesn't care to deduce why. Not just yet. A sharp inhale. ]

Your inability to count is what I would define as idiocy.
