[CONTINUE] Week 1 || Act: mingle

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your second 'time' trying this monday.

...Though....are there a few less Monsters here than there were before? ...Nah. You must be imagining it.

You still have a mission - and after the events of the last trial, you want to do your best to stop whatever is causing this.

But, hey. You really do have nothing but time now to figure it out.

cw: drugs

[personal profile] le_mat 2020-08-18 03:30 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, I was wondering if you could help me with something?

[Sherlock might already know what it is, since he has the entire hemp stalk Flowey sold him stored in their shared room. He pulls it out]

... do you have any idea how to actually... okay, so I bought this off Flowey and did not expect it to be the whole plant.

[You get what he's laying down here, right buddy?]

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-18 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... why - nevermind, this is me you're talking to - of course, I would be the one you go to.

[He gives a huffing-laugh]

Yes, I can tell you - the first thing you need to do is to dry the leaves and buds someplace dry with good air circulation. Then you would - if you want to smoke it, grind it down and roll it up in appropriate smoking papers, much like a cigarette.

[...He felt like, there was someone that would swoop in, to upbraid him for teaching a teenager how to prepare drugs.

What was his name again?]

[Ren grins]

Think of it as proof that I read a few of your stories. I was thinking baking... with everything going on it might help. I don't usually... I had a bad history with being drugged, but stuff like this is usually okay. But if something like the past weekend helps again the others might want it.
improbablenotimpossible: (The fact of the matter...)

Cw: Just assume it's all about drugs until otherwise noted.

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-18 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
Ah... I admit I don't have much experience with making them, but you wouldn't want to use too much unless you want someone to feel extremely ill.

[He rubs his chin thoughtfully, brows knitting as he does some mental math]

So it'd be like adding in a spice, no more than three teaspoons depending on how much you planning to make.

Hm... yeah, good idea. I'd rather have it not work than put someone out. Doesn't help that I'm not an amazing baker either.

[He gives a sheepish grin, and goes to get a shopping bag he already put aside and starts de-leafing the stalk- he already has gloves on to hide his stone fingers, so no need to protect his hands as he does so]

There was... something else I wanted to ask you about too.
improbablenotimpossible: (Let me ponder the matter further)

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-18 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
And it's a good thing you're put off from being a regular user. That's a sloop you don't want to start sliding down on. I can warn you that if you don't think it's working, you should wait another hour before trying another dose.

[Speaking from experience? Perhaps]

Of course, though I might have an idea of what it might be...

end of cw for now

[personal profile] le_mat 2020-08-18 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[he nods, agreeing]

Probably. It's what's on all our minds after all.

[He keeps working on his task, deft fingers moving quickly now that he has a rhythm down and allowing him to look up]

How... well, I guess asking 'how are you holding up' is pretty stupid. But- what happened hit you harder than maybe anyone.

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-18 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[He slowly exhales, closing his notepad, sitting up straighter than he usually does, for a moment looking all legs as he adjusts his positions]

... It didn't help -

[Sherlock pauses for a moment, brows furrowing as his lips pursed together - hesitating before he seem to decide that he could least be a little more frank with him]

... Even if the color was different, how that man ended up there was not the same - there were enough broad strokes of Reichenbach that until the darkness came all I could hear was that roar from so long ago and the scream right then.

Waterfall being so close by too... it makes me a little nervous going there to look for Red.

[he shakes his head]

Some people... they end up so tangled up in your life that words like friend or enemy, rival or lover... they dont really cover it. Losing someone like that is like losing a limb- doesn't matter if it was twisted or infected. It's still *yours*.

[His stone fingers twitch. Old echoing pain of Archer's shot taking "his" head from his shoulders, the same way he always pictured the cognitive Akechi taking his shot on the real thing.]

Having to go through that twice, almost exactly the same way? You need time to grieve. More than any of us.
improbablenotimpossible: (What the devil)

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-18 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[He could feel his shoulder ache, where the device had skewered his arm, then the tearing, and his lips pursed slightly, then a low, shuddering sigh escapes as if something just was sprung open.

He gets it - Amamiya gets it.]

It's very much like that... as I had told Solomon - when one appears, the other follows.

Some of that romantic 'intertwined fate' stuff, huh?

[Romantic in the more literary sense]

Can't have a detective without a criminal to chase.

[But does that mean without one there is no other? The idea is terrifying]
improbablenotimpossible: (A three pipe problem)

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-19 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I believe there's something like that in stories from Asian countries...

[He trails off thoughtfully as Ren said that 'Can't have a detective without a criminal'... He would like to think he can retire, and he had done so in life but was he so reductive as a Servant?]

I suppose I should explain it's a little more literal in our case. Some Heroic Spirits are "Paired" for the lack of a better word - if Karna is summoned, most likely his brother and killer Arjuna would follow - that is the same with us - me and that man.

[personal profile] le_mat 2020-08-19 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
But you're not just a Servant- you're a man. At least here, in this world, that's the case, right?
improbablenotimpossible: (Let me ponder the matter further)

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-19 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Odd, hearing that seem to bring a slight grin to his lips and he's not even aware why]

Yes, that would seem to be the case...

cw: drugs again

[personal profile] le_mat 2020-08-19 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[And Ren grins in return]

So, are you gonna want some of this when I have it handled? I don't wanna knock you off the wagon or anything...
improbablenotimpossible: (I know everything I need to)

Re: cw: drugs again

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-19 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
[He crosses his leg, giving ]

I admit - it is rather tempting, least it's not what's called 'hard drugs' now. I suspect if this gets out I might get a lecture from my paramour.

Ah, the doctor, right? Well never let it be said I'm the type to cause romantic strife...
improbablenotimpossible: (I'm at your service)

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-19 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
[His eyes does glint slightly]

Yes, that would be him.

Well... medical marijuana is a thing?

[His impish little gleam brightens, laughing]

Naturally, it has been shown to have some powerful, less addictive pain-relieving property, and for many people, it can help with anxiety...
le_mat: (5f7wIpe)

[personal profile] le_mat 2020-08-19 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
See, then the good doctor can't get onto me for offering medical aid, riiiight?
improbablenotimpossible: (I'm at your service)

[personal profile] improbablenotimpossible 2020-08-20 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
Right.

[Oh he'll probably get an earful later - but better to seek forgiveness than to ask for permission?

Then quietly, he speaks again, softly]

...Thank you, for asking after me.
le_mat: (8IgSL9K)

[personal profile] le_mat 2020-08-20 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
[His expression softens and he nods]

Don't worry about it. I was... just concerned.

It's not often I get that kind of concern, I'll confess.
