I understand that this is new and exciting for you, Mun, and that you're getting very attached to your new fandom, but does this hunt for--what do you call it? Right. "Fanfiction". Do we really need to continue this?

The ideas it's giving you are...worrying.






Stop smiling like that. [:|]

What makes you say that?

[He didn't say he would kill himself.]

[canenotneeded]

Because you--

[Blinks before laughing softly]



...keep the bullets in the wall, Sherlock.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[There's an amused smile as John laughs.]

Then don't bore me, John.

[It' simple, really.]

[canenotneeded]

How did I become tasked with maintaining your entertainment levels? Isn't that what your website is for?

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

You're the one who decided no one was interested in my website, remember?

[canenotneeded]

No, I only said that no one cares about your analysis of tabacco ash which, really Sherlock, even you have to admit isn't as interesting as some of the other things you've posted.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

Two Hundred, forty-THREE different types of tobacco ash, John! Do you know how many cases can be solved just by realizing that not all tobacco ash is created equal?

[canenotneeded]

I don't, actually, and I'm sure no one else does either which is why we have you around.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

Was that a compliment?

[He turns his head sharply to look at John.]

Why are you complimenting me like that?

[canenotneeded]

[Eyebrows. Raised.]


...I'm pretty sure it's not the first time I've acknowledged your deducing abilities, you know.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

But this was a compliment that had the undercurrent of being a critique. Why?

[It was almost sarcasm, right? That's one he's still trying to figure out.]

[canenotneeded]

[Your life obviously needs a little more sarcasm in it, Sherlock]




...Because you place a very large amount of importance on things most people never would, but that doesn't make the conclusions you come to about those things any less impressive?

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[Sherlock's still confused.]

But if no one else cares, then how can my conclusions be impressive?

[canenotneeded]

Well, it's not like they'd be able to do it themselves if they wanted to, so.

Anyone ought to be impressed by that.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[He doesn't believe John.]

You do realize you are the first person to be properly impressed by me... all the time?

[Back to: people usually tell him to 'piss off'.]

[canenotneeded]

Well, I.




That's probably not true, actually. I'm sure plenty of people are, but are too...I don't know, prideful to admit it.

[Which unfortunately leads to hostility]

It also doesn't help that you like to make a person's private fact very public.

[Which leads to more hostility]

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

A person's private fact very public? John, what are you on about?

[Why would two people sleeping together be private, when they so obviously want to show it off to the world? - Anderson and Donovan.]

[canenotneeded]

You know exactly what I'm on about, Sherlock.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

Do I? Does this have something to do with this "Fanfiction" thing you mentioned earlier?

[Oh Sherlock may not understand it when others do sarcasm, but he has a lot himself.]

omg that icon XDDDDDD

[canenotneeded]

...It's of the same theme, but not exactly related, no.

Just because you can embarrass someone by what you can read in the way they part their hair or their cuff links doesn't mean you should.

Thank you XD

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[He runs his hands through his hair and growls slightly in frustration.]

John. We've been over this! I'm not trying to embarrass them, I simply say what I observe. And if they don't want to be embarrassed, then they shouldn't commit embarrassing acts.

[And yes, it is that simple to Sherlock. His 'rule of thumb' can be summed up as: Don't be an idiot.]

[canenotneeded]

All I'm saying is that a little tact wouldn't kill you.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[With total seriousness.]

It might...

[canenotneeded]

Don't be dramatic.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[He slumps into his chair.]

Fine.

[This is as close to 'not being dramatic' as he gets.]
