There's a nice coffee shop near the water. Might be easier than trying to will it into existence.

[ TEA of course referring to the cipher. Relatively new, written in C. Working conclusions: programmer, hacker, engineer. High level of intelligence required. Said respondent would have to had made a decryption program module. Non-complex, TEA. That's the whole point of it. Efficiency. Still impressive for any average joe. Clearly this one is not.

S.H. Interesting. ]

The water which encased New Moore two years ago, you mean?

[heartofbakerst]

Well, I meant the warehouse district, but, I suppose it would be the same water, yeah.

[iagreewithyou]

Thoughts on that? jw.

[heartofbakerst]

On what, exactly? The sudden appearance of a mysterious island? Islands are formed all the time, aren't they?

[iagreewithyou]

Reappearance. We're in agreement New Moore drowned, y?

[heartofbakerst]

Are we?

Sorry-- Who are you, exactly?

[worldsonly]

[ well, he prefers showing off, and if there's someone clever enough to already program in a cipher to their new commmunications device, Sherlock is willing to give them a brief bit of attention. ]

It has its pros and cons. I'd prefer a cigarette but so far those
are no more subject to the whims of will than anything else.

audio; since he's a wizard and too lazy to figure out non-quill writing

[alwaysimpure]

You type as bad as I do.

[He's not actually an idiot and he's lived (more or less) through a war, so he actually suspects a code, but he can't solve it.]

[ Had to throw out a distress single somehow. Big fish to catch. Haven't found Watson. Need minds worth minding to. Wouldn't be beyond Holmes to do the same, though. Then there is no one quite like Holmes unless... they're also Holmes. We'll burn that bridge when we get there. ]

Smoking is last century.
new fad: liver damage.

1/2, maybe?

[iagreewithyou]

Sherlock Holmes.

NOPE 2/3

[iagreewithyou]

AKA living breathing real

3/3

[iagreewithyou]

AKA not fictional

[heartofbakerst]

No. No, you aren't. You can't be Sherlock Holmes.

[...he knows gits. He is one.]

Something wrong with your voice, too, mate?

[iagreewithyou]

caught me
i'm a talking eggplant

[ Sudden desire to place head against wall; but on to other matters: Who are you? ]

[heartofbakerst]

You can't be Sherlock Holmes because I live with Sherlock Holmes. And I know. For a fact. That he's not you. So who the hell are you?

[iagreewithyou]

[ It's a few minutes before the next text ]

Intriguing.

[heartofbakerst]

Well?

text

[iagreewithyou]

[ Text 1 ] Laryngitis.

[ Text 2 ] What do you know of New Moore?

[iagreewithyou]

[ SH. Sherlock Holmes. You're going to have to keep bothering him to get an answer, John. Holmes suddenly has other priorities. ]

[alwaysimpure]

This island?

Hm. I have the basic geography down by now and I know that some of the people here have read about me in a book. Apparently I'm a fictional character wherever they come from.

People can come here from different worlds and even different points in time within this worlds.
