I knew something was amiss when first thing in the morning I found John Watson's Natu on the sill, motionlessly staring through the window. For those keeping score, I confirmed that both John and my brother Sherlock have disappeared from Tumbleweed, along with 221b. Again. Please, spare me your condolences and platitudes, I don't want to read or hear them; they are unnecessary.

On an unrelated note, I shall be going away on a business related trip to London for five days, and I require somebody to mind these pokemon in my care, the above mentioned Natu and my Eevee. Those that are interested may inquire to this post.

And why would they think that?

At one point I considered becoming a vampire. The difference is, I didn't announce it to the world.

So was Sherlock.

	Why a vampire? I know Sherlock was a drug addict. That's how I befriended him. He got me to go to NA meetings with him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Prior to the Portal bringing me to Tumbleweed, I was in a somewhat similar situation where, shall we say the conditions were not all that stable, nor were they safe. Being surrounded by potential enemies that were more powerful than I, I thought of leveling the playing field by asking to be transformed into a vampire by a colleague of mine.

My Sherlock would never agree to attend those sorts of meetings. But I monitored his behavior and was able to deduce the circumstances that were stressful which might cause a lapse.

	Jesus, where were you before? My Sherlock, I told him that I don't think I need the meetings anymore. He said to just go to them less, not stop altogether. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It was a place called Preya. An island that was located in some pocket universe, so I was told. We were all brought there on our own volition, but at low points in our lives, having been promised that we could start a new life, escaping the pain of our present condition. Once there, we told that we could never return home, even if we'd changed our minds. I had risen to one of the highest positions one could have in the local government, but the real rulers of the island were shadowy figures, people nobody had even seen. They gave their instructions and orders through official messages, which I, as one of the Councilmen, would then carry out. There was a contingent of 'rebels' who wanted to return home, and if any were caught, nobody knew what happened to them.

It so happened, that I, along with a fellow Councilman, had come across some information, a discrepancy between the number of arrivals recorded, and the true amount of people who came through the entrance. When we brought it to the rulers' attention, it was dismissed in such a way that we deemed suspicious. My colleague and I decided to pursue the investigation, separately and privately. Then my colleague disappeared. Then my secretary. And others. The rulers gave no explanation as to what was being done to them and where they had gone, but I was convinced that I would be the next to be taken.

Additionally, a very dangerous criminal from my universe, Jim Moriarty, was there. He was under probation for his past crimes, but he convinced his parole officer that he had been rehabilitated. I was to sit at his parole hearing to give testimony that he should not be removed from parole, but on the morning of the court date, I was seriously poisoned and had to be taken to the hospital. Without my testimony, Moriarty was free, and no doubt was rebuilding a crime syndicate in Preya.

The portal brought me to Tumbleweed shortly after I was discharged from the hospital.

It sounds like your version is a bit less stubborn than mine. I've tried to engage in dialogue with your version a couple of times, but

	That's really heavy, man. So the poison is what made you want to be a vampire? So you wouldn't die from it? He's still stubborn. He doesn't talk much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

No, the poison was meant to knock me out of commission so I wouldn't be able to attend the hearing. It was I who considered becoming a vampire so that I could gain supernatural powers to fight those who might come for me ~~and protect Sherlock~~ I was going to ask somebody to bite me.

I got the impression that he's a private person.

Enough about him. What about yourself?

	The only thing that stopped me was that I was told vampires, or at least the vampire I was going to ask to bite me, are very hierarchical. And that those that are newly transformed into vampires are the lowest on the metaphorical totem pole. That meant I would have to serve the vampire that bit me, and that was distasteful.

	I think it's not worth the bother, seeing as you're only a werewolf during the full moon. That's usually the way these things work, unless it's some special type from a particular universe. Rather sounds like a headache. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
