It is pleasing to sit in the park once more without any 'supernatural' threats of violence.


ENOLA

Your friend, Mister Caffrey, has proposed a working relationship. It would perhaps be more ideal if we had an actual agency to speak of for him to consult for. Now, you are already aware I am keen to work alone, and the same can be said of you; however, it would merely be in name. You needn't prove yourself to me, but he does.

I digress. All these words are meaningless if you have no interest in sharing an agency with me.


MISS BENNET
Given your sudden disinterest in the pub, perhaps I could interest you in the library that has confoundingly appeared in my flat. It is curiously a replica of the one from my own home in London.

It is no fault of mine that you...the pub...the pool...blast. Oh, for God's sake, Lizzy. Was it all that sudden? Curious. I was not aware. Perhaps my mind wandered. Just how does an entire library appear in one's flat?

Indeed. Was the atmosphere that oppressive to you?

I believe it is in correlation with a passing fancy of a wish I made.

Not at all, despite your insistence that I continue about my way and not follow you inside.

Sherlock Holmes entertained a passing fancy? Have you fallen ill?

Then, you must understand my confusion as to why you decided it was ill-suited for you.

Yes, I am beside myself with irritation over the matter.

Must we engage in this conversation? I can not very well be truthful. I do understand your confusion.

What a horrid ailment to have fallen upon you.

Very well.

Indeed. I suppose it was merely a yearning for a proper library that plagued me.

Thank goodness.

Then how lucky you are that your momentary foray into flights of fancy was promptly derailed by the arrival of your library- which I would very much be interested in seeing.

Excellent. You are welcome to visit at your leisure, there is no need to request entry. Should you decide to borrow something, however, do let me or Enola know.

Thank you, for thinking of me when your wish was fulfilled. I will visit within the hour but do not believe I shall borrow anything. I am a quick reader and prefer to be surrounded by the atmosphere of the library itself as I read.

If it would not be an inconvenience to you or your sister and flatmates.

As always, there is no need for gratitude. Yes, that is something I also prefer.

It would not.

And as always? You are going to receive my gratitude regardless if it is needed or not.

Will you be joining me in my turn about your library, Mr. Holmes?

So I am becoming aware.

If you like. It will require a bit of a tour.

You should accept your fate, Sherlock.

Then I suppose I shall take your arm again.

Never accept a contrived concept such as fate, Miss Bennet.

That is quite fine.

I am fond of Neal just from the solitary conversation we have had. I believe he has skills you could utilize if you were to find yourself capable of working well with others.

But I digress...because you want to open your agency...with me?

Regardless of his abilities and your fondness for him, he would be a resource at both of our disposals. It would behoove us to utilise him given his firsthand knowledge of this modern world.

Yes. Is that a surprise?

It would be a missed opportunity for you not to accept his gracious offer.

It is a bit of one.

Gracious, perhaps, but slightly suspicious.

You proved yourself capable more than once.

Oh, it is highly suspicious but that is what makes it interesting.

I am well aware but you, dear brother? Have always worked alone.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Enola | Sherlock
[info]assertion
2021-02-20 07:36 am UTC (link)
That remains to be seen.

And will continue to do so. This is itself a lesson in learning how to utilise our resources here, Enola, and I am a resource for you just as you are one for me.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Enola | Sherlock
[info]aloneholmes
2021-02-20 07:42 am UTC (link)
My curiosity is already piqued.

So, you do not wish to work with me per se but rather utilize one another as a resource?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Enola | Sherlock
[info]assertion

That would facilitate your personal need for independence, would it not?

It very much would but I also wouldn't be opposed to working together occasionally.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Enola | Sherlock
[info]assertion

It would be ours rather than mine or yours, equal partners. Therefore, working together would be a possibility.

Then I, of course, have a great interest in sharing an agency with you.

Excellent. We will sort the logistics of that out, then I will invite you to test your new mate.

What gave the impression I required any semblance of violence?
