ladylock and the opinions thereof.

So you've uploaded all these pointless icons, had absurdly excitable conversations about me and...still haven't a clue how or where best to play me.

[...]

Well. What a fascinating insight into your mind all this has been. You won't mind if I make myself scarce, will you? Don't fret, I'm sure you'll find someone else to make little square pictures of.

"The more things change, the more they stay the same."

As far as trite cliches go, this one seems rather appropriate. [So entertained.]

[uncommon]

And yet as you've said: trite.

[womanwhobeatyou]

Not as trite as you seem to think, Ms. Holmes. It makes it far more likely that the answer is nurture, not nature.

[uncommon]

The answer to a question no one posed. Does it matter?

[womanwhobeatyou]

You, of all people, are asking if the clues of minutiae matter?

[Male or female, Irene is still going to enjoy needling Sherlock Holmes.]

[uncommon]

Keep up. I was asking if there's any real point in marking out the differences and similarities between myself and my alternate- or in debating nature vs nurture, for that matter, when the answer is inevitably a shrug and [high-pitched sarcasm is go] 'I dunno, both?'

[orfred]

The little squares are a rather important part of the process, or so I've been told.

Maybe you should try to help her decide where's best for you to go, instead of insulting your 'mun'. [it's hard to tell whether this is a genuine suggestion or if Romana is trolling (she's probably trolling)]

[uncommon]

Let her show some initiative. Why should I hold her hand through it?

[orfred]

It makes the whole thing entirely less painful, for a start. Watching them stare at an application for hours is just distressing.

[uncommon]

It would keep her occupied and out of my way.

[orfred]

Are you going to get up to very much while stuck in someone's head?

[uncommon]

I do my best work stationary on a sofa; I think I can adapt.

Anyway, I doubt she'll get so far as an app.

[orfred]

That sounds terribly unexciting.

She seemsquite keen on you, I wouldn't count it out just yet.

[uncommon]

Then the finer points of brain-work escape you.

[...an answer to both statements, in slightly different ways.]

[orfred]

[aww that's cute Sherlock]

No, I just like a little leg-work alongside my brain-work. And I think I'm inclined to being more generous towards regular people.

[uncommon]

Yes. Obviously. I'm not my sister; I didn't disparage leg-work. [You love chasing people over rooftops, Sherlock, don't even lie.] But the crux of my work is thought.

[orfred]

I find I think best when I'm running for my life. [thank you for teaching her this lesson, Doctor] But each to their own, I suppose.
