On the intention to app to asgardeventide

[prepared_to_burn]

Not only do you want to take me to a city created by Norse gods, but you want Mycroft to come as well. To make me live with him. While concealing from John that not only am I not dead but also that I'm in the city at all. Points one and three? Tolerable. Point two? No.

I don't care that you think it'd be "fun." Life with Mycroft? Never fun. Dull on the best of days, exceptionally irritating on most. Occasionally infuriating. The only part of this idea that is remotely acceptable is having someone there whose identity I could assume for anonymous messages. Even that isn't worth the annoyance of dealing with Mycroft on a daily basis.

Reconsider.

That is not a request.

Along with the fact that we have one of "your biggest fans" living in our flat? There's probably a lot of things you'll need to get up to speed on.

[ it's this kid. yeah. ]

[prepared_to_burn]

Define "fan."

[He has one fan too many there he already knows about.

But if this one is living with John... That's either very bad or decent.]

A kid with some talents that might just rival yours. You inspire him, apparently.

[ there were many "adoption" jokes going around at one point. ]

[prepared_to_burn]

A kid.

[So not amused by this idea.]

How old? Still a young idealist or old enough to be starting to realise that crime can pay so much better than detective work? [Hello, cynicism.]

[doctors]

Six. And yet he's taken on and solved most of the murder cases the city's seen. Along with you and I when you were still there, that is.

I swear to God, he's got an adult's brain in a kid's body.

Six. [You better be kidding, John. That's what that look says. This better be a joke.]

And he's living with us. Well. You, currently.

[doctors]

Well I wasn't about to just turn him away. He's... grown accustomed to us. And frankly, he's good company.

[ eyebrow raise! ] Humour me. You might just get a good conversation out of him.
