Hm. I could probably make you one. Although if you've found some records I could probably find them on a slightly more modern format for you- you can put them on your computer or your phone... well, I'll put them on your computer or your phone.

I found mine. Rufus had it recorded.

I'd like to listen to it.

Oh, oh, darling! Of course. If it's on vinyl it'll sound better if I make you a record player. I'll get right on it.

You can actually build one? Actually, I'm not sure why I doubted that. I always see green and metallic pieces of ... I don't think I can describe it.

But I never quite dared to dream that he would hire an orchestra to record it. Not after what I did. His patience isn't infinite.

I hear your music. When I look at you, I mean. I'm sure it's your music.

Robert, he loves you. He loved you his whole life and he loves you again. Of course he would. He's kept your letters. He'd want your last- he'd want what you put your life into.

He really loves you. Wow.

I wonder if my pater heard it.

Do you think Rufus would have sent it to him?

Ask him?

No. My pater wouldn't have bothered to listen to it.

I'm too good for him.

Well, sod him. His opinion is not worth wanting.

You are, love. You are. I don't care if you're being sarcastic about this, it is true.

You and Rufus are wonderful

I think that feasibly he should have been dead for a few decades now. So technically, his opinion is no longer valid. Not that it ever was.

But I'm bored. Do you think you're up for a visit?

Oh yes, I'm quite well. The boys are both occupied so I can come over and see you, if Rufus doesn't mind?

I'm afraid your record player isn't yet ready, though.

That's not a concern, the record player.

I had half a mind to pop over at Sherlock's as well, but it can wait.

I'm not certain- Rufus, do you mind?

I think Sherlock and Dr. Watson might want to be left alone to enjoy at least a little time together after their marriage.

And Sherlock didn't look too well the last time I saw him.

Where is Rufus? Why can't you just shout at him?

As long as you both behave.

He's watching me learn the Internet. For some reason it's amusing.

We're not going to communicate textually from now on, my dearest. Just so you know.

I found a website as of late. Goatse. It was quite, uh. Refreshing.

And of course not. But you were so far away, love.

You're an awful man.

How can you do awful things and then be so lovely?

You're a handsome devil.

But you're so cruel.

What? Rufus.

I just happen to think it's all very fascinating, all the pornography and the likes.

What a decade.

Oh, you were looking for pornography? My love, why didn't you say so...

Are you actually ahead of me, Sixsmith?

The Internet as a source of knowledge is infinitely fascinating to me, considering the world and technology when I died. I know I have a science brain, it doesn't interest you as much to poke through the odd details and the progression of techonological understanding. When I was in the army a lot of the other men brought various types of porn into the trenches with us. Pictures, photographs, some literature. When I died they were mass producing long films. I was too old at the time to really want anything to do with that, but the notion of sex and sexual freedom had progressed so much since you'd passed away.

I thought so often that if you had remained alive, if we hadn't been parted we could have lived together so happily. We could have grown old together. We could have openly loved each other. But I know it wouldn't have worked out that way, anyway

Being here and knowing that men can marry each other, that there are couples who can walk around hand in hand when we could not, I wondered at the advances of sexuality elsewhere. What other taboos might have been discarded as old fashioned.

It isn't pretty, my love. I have discovered some very nasty things. It isn't...well, I am an old fashioned man, still, but it lacks the romance that appeals to me.

Sorry. This is a very long winded ramble.

I've always loved you in my own fashion, Sixsmith. Conventions be damned.

But how about I pour us a glass of wine and I listen to you 'ramble' some more?
