WEEK 0 Day 1

[greatdeduction]

[Hello, Monika! What a lovely day it is.]

[Someone is just. Posing? On stage? In the operahouse?]

[He just.]

[He's just posing.]

[Maybe it's not going to be a lovely day at all.]

[rerouter]

[...

She stares, silently, as if waiting for him to suddenly start a soliloquy.

Can you feel the anticipation in the air, Herlock? Can you?]

[greatdeduction]

...

[And then he's making another pose.]

"If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?"

[And then a laugh, as he looks over at Monika.]

But! I am not made for the stage, my dear madam!

WEEK 1 day five

[greatdeduction]

[Well, here's Sholmes! Except...something might be different, here. He's walking along, Irene at his feet in beagle form, but...he stumbles, suddenly, but is able to right himself before he falls.]

Ah, whoops! Almost broke my leg there! No, not quite. That would've been quite bad.

[His voice is a little slow? But what's more noticeable, however, is the wine bottle in his hand.]

[rerouter]

[Uh. She stops whatever the heckie she was doing to stare.]

Sholmes...? [Sir, what the heck.] ... Oh, my gosh. Are you drunk?

[greatdeduction]

[He snaps his fingers at her.]

Most certainly not!

[While wobbling.]

week 2 day 4

[greatdeduction]

[Here's Sholmes, trying to gingerly walk through a field of shards. This is. Probably going to end up in disaster. His daemon, Irene, in hare form on his shoulder, looks...anxious.]

Ah, my dear madam! [He's waving!] How goes the day?

[rerouter]

[WHY ARE THERE SO MANY SHARDS... Monika and Pygmalion are just. Sticking to one spot. Wondering if it's truly worth it to try and get across.]

Oh... Hey! I'm okay. Are you, um, doing alright over there?

[greatdeduction]

Oh, I'm doing quite fine. You see, I'm very agile, so-

[He is very agile, and yet...he steps on a shard. Idiot.]

[This memory is rather simple. A very young girl with pink hair gets up to her feet, toddling towards a younger Sholmes, who, in his delight, reaches out for her. It's her first time walking.]

[He's never been more proud.]

[......He smiles. It's a good memory.]

week 2 post execution

[greatdeduction]

[Sholmes is walking along, Irene hopping at her side - when he sees Monika, he greets her with a light smile.]

Ah! Hello, my dear madam. Did you enjoy Mr. Turner's bisque?

not me foolishly thinking i tagged this back

[rerouter]

[Polite as always, she smiles back and shakes her head. Pygmalion sticks close to her.]

I'm a vegetarian, so... [Alas.] But it looked like everyone was in a better mood after eating. That's such a relief.

[Anyway? Pygmalion is going to sit on a glass shard as he plops down on the ground next to Monika. It's memory time.]

NOT ME NOT GETTING THIS NOTIF

[greatdeduction]

...

[What?]

[What a...bizarre world. What are these...boxes? These words?]

[He just stares at her for a moment.]

I...see. [...] No, I don't see at all.

week 3 post execution

[greatdeduction]

[Someone is just sitting here in the courtyard, looking...almost strained? Definitely tired. Irene, as a crow, is preening herself next to him.]

[He looks up at Monika, heaving a sigh.]

...Hello, Miss Monika. Our last night here has been all over the place, hasn't it?

[rerouter]

[Well, if that isn't a mood.]

... Yes.

[Quietly. She takes a seat as well, Pygmalion bumping his head against her leg, softly whining.]

I knew today would be a bad day, but... not like this.

[greatdeduction]

Oh, certainly not. I don't think anyone could have predicted that.

[He shakes his head.]

A terrible outcome. And now...we have to get ready for a new world, and new mysteries, without even really having a chance to breathe.

week 4 day 4

[greatdeduction]

[It's a nice Thursday morning, coming into the noon. And yet, Sholmes doesn't seem to be having a nice time. Monika should see that right away, as he's pacing through the square, puffing away on his pipe. Irene in crow form is bristled on his shoulder.]

[When he sees her, he turns on his heel, beelining towards her.]

Ah, my dear girl. [And he's striding up, clearly a bit agitated.] Please. Tell me. Have you seen any sign of Mr. Kotetsu?

[rerouter]

... Kotetsu?

[She shakes her head, looking concerned now.]

I'm sorry, I haven't. When was the last time you saw him?

week 4 post trial

[greatdeduction]

[He's here in the tavern, just. Sitting here. His chin is in his hands, and he's staring dimly at some random spot in the distance.]

[When Monika approaches, he does look over at her.]

Ah? Yes. Hello, my dear girl.

[rerouter]

[She comes with tea, that she will place down on the table in front of him. It's, like, the local equivalent of chamomile or something.]

Hey... Are you going over trial?

week 5 post trial

[greatdeduction]

[He's wandering through the hotel, moving to the lobby...and stopping when he sees Monika.]

[He stands there, a little numb, but he shakes his head.]

I suppose it will be nice to leave this world behind, won't it?

[rerouter]

[...

Monika nods, clutching the strap of her satchel. She offers him a bland smile.]

It's another world we leave behind with bitter memories.

week 6 day 1

[greatdeduction]

[Wherever Monika is shopping, here is...a detective! He turns to her, holding up a sweater.]

Yes? No?

[rerouter]

[She tilts her head, thoughtfully.]

Hm... What would you pair it with?

week 6 post trial

[greatdeduction]

[He blinks when he finds her in the library. He had come here as a quiet place to think, but...]

Looking for a bit of light reading, my dear girl?

[rerouter]

... A distraction, to be completely honest.

[Though it looks like she's found none, considering she's shoving a book right back into its shelf.]

What about you, Sholmes?
