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. [:|]

[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.]

[canenotneeded]

[He snorts, rolling his eyes]

Don't sulk, either. You're too old for it.

[And now he's disappearing off into the kitchen for the kettle--so help him, Sherlock, if you've done anything to the kettle]

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[Tea items are fine... for now.]

Never too old to sulk.

[Admit it, John, he's right.]

[canenotneeded]

[Just because he gets away with it doesn't mean he's right]

That's incredibly untrue.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

Is It? I hadn't noticed.

[Still true in his mind.]

[canenotneeded]

Of course you haven't--you've been let to get away with it too long for you to notice.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

Is that who you are now? My conscience?

[He pauses, dramatically.]

Interesting. Perhaps I should call you Jiminy Cricket from now on?

[canenotneeded]

[Isn't he always your conscience now, Sherlock?]

If you start calling me 'Jiminy Cricket', I really will clean the flat.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[Of course John is, but chance in hell of Sherlock admitting that out loud. At the flat-cleaning comment, Sherlock levels the look.]

You wouldn't. It would mess up all my experiments.

[canenotneeded]

Then it'll be smart for you to keep your nicknames to yourself.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[He offers a smug grin.]

Fine. So, is your mun still reading.... that... stuff?

[His nose is twitching.]

Mine has thankfully stayed away from it in this fandom. Of course I said I would leave if any of it were read about me.

[canenotneeded]

[He frowns a little, sighing]

She is, unfortunately. Her and her Sherlock-mun are practically feeding it to each other.

I suppose I should just be grateful she hasn't started writing any of her own.

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

And that tells me everything I need to know about you, then...

[Yup, he's expecting John to turn into a sex-crazed lunatic any moment. Because that's what happens to characters when muns read that, right?]
