The Doorway: a panfandom game

My congratulations to the Duchess of Cambridge

Oh, alley muggings.

[Filtered to John Watson (Film)]

Welcome back, John.

[Filtered to her darling husband]

Are you free tomorrow evening? I've made plans to check on a location for a party I'm planning and I'd love a second opinion.

I solemnly swear never to underestimate the plight of the honorable hospital admitting clerk again. I've never seen so many mothers concerned about radiation poisoning in my entire life.

It'll be good to have an office again.

...Holmes?

It seems that Mary's gone. In case you hadn't

While the beverage itself was pleasant and refreshing, I found Coca-Cola's title to be very misleading.

[Joan Watson]

Do you think it's something in the air?

In light of the Supreme Court's recent decision, Watson, do you suppose we should be wed?

Before you answer, consider that we could no longer be compelled to testify against each other.

Can I talk to you about something?

I know this is a bit odd, but I imagine you would understand where I'm coming from better than most. It's about a mutual friend of ours, sort of.

[Private to Sherlock Holmes]

And your plans for Saturday are?

...I mean, it was all a very honest mistake.

After all, who could possibly know that New York was a mob-run city?

Well demoiselles and gents, as useful as this internet may be, it shall never replace a good old go and see. I've managed to find a most hospitable pub in the harbour--and quite literally twould be said at that.

The Honorable William Wall--she's a boat you see, a floating clubhouse for the yacht club. I thought, with as noisome as most of the pubs round here can be, it'd be most spiffing to take a bit of a cruise whilst playin a round or two of hasard. So, Mulan, Maximoff, Thursday next 5:30 and see where the evening takes us?

I'm booking some space, though it's promised first to club members. Should anyone other be interested?

I was looking through some websites and they've several shows. A few look like they would be very enjoyable. Would you like to see one with me this month? We could go for a walk beforehand and to dinner as well.

I'm not sure how you lot stand this heat. I don't understand how more of you aren't getting tickets for indecent exposure, because I cannot leave my flat without wanting to strip naked and play in a fountain.

FILTERED TO STEVE ROGERS 616:

We should play a game. Up for the task, Cap?

Do you know, I think one of my favourite things about living in this tower is waking up to the view. It's easy to get out of bed in the morning when I know I can spend it with a cup of tea and the dazzling magnitude of the New York skyline.

Of course, other mornings I pull back my curtains to find things like this and I'm reminded not only of how beautiful life is, but also of how impossibly short.

Holmes. Why.

[Mrs. Irene Gray (née Adler)]

Congratulations.




Now what in the name of the devil's hooves are you thinking?

I suppose we all have our moments that seem impossible to live down. The ridiculous anecdotes your friends (or, in some cases, soon to be former friends) share over pints, or during wedding receptions.

Last Friday, I actually stumbled upon a little wedding party at the Blind Tiger. There were toasts, general merriment and I was reminded of an anecdote that I will perhaps never live down which -- coincidently -- also has to do with tigers.

When I first met my wife I made every attempt to impress her -- including stumbling horribly over my own words, To this day she she declares that I told her ... how a musket looked into my tent at the dead of night, and how I fired a double-barreled tiger cub at it.

Can I just skip Mother's Day? Those that know my world will get why.

But on a happier note I'm going to toss the idea out there thanks to something Rory said: would there be interest or even a need for an on call fix it person within the Tower? I know with all the tech heads around there may not be a need but its my way of being and feeling useful beyond the yard. And if anyone does come to Morgan Salvage feel free to ask for me.
