[Somebody has been watching all the chaos take place via the journals. He's been greatly entertained.]

Oh this is more like it. The castle rarely disappoints with the regularity of its shows does it?

Hmm can’t see a show without dinner can you? A filet mignon steak dinner please?

[What follows next is the sound of something large and animal like crashing through a dining table with a loud animalistic scream. This is also accompanied by the sound of a Moriarty moving away from his dining table very very quickly.]

[A few minutes pass before he speaks again.]

A word of advice to you all...I think the chef might have lost his passion for the job.

Moooo. [Moriarty’s dinner feels the need to contribute.]

Oh shut up!

[jimfromit]

So ive heard from Cole. Since I narrowly missed having a large cow land on my head I’m not exactly doubting him.

[youhavebeenflynned]

I hope I won't run into that thing. And if I do it'll die. They're predators right? Pterodactyls?

[jimfromit]

Indeed, with a wing span of up to 40 feet and above average eyesight for catching pray.

You got to admit it would make a wonderful trophy for any wall!

[youhavebeenflynned]

[Smirks] That's true. It would make a great trophy.

[jimfromit]

It'd make the owner ooze raw sex appeal!

Well more so in our case.

[youhavebeenflynned]

[Grins.] Can't argue with that.

How are you settling in?

[jimfromit]

I’m adapting despite todays unpleasentness.

Met some interesting people in the past few days. I’ve also met other more irritating people id love to make into shoes. I know there’s a couple of old "friends" here that are yet to show themselves. But with the right sort of situation I’m sure they'll emerge. "grin"

[youhavebeenflynned]

That's good.

I know what you mean. I have met a few people who I don't like too. It's great that you're getting along with some people. [Smiles.]

Old friends? I haven't met any of my old friends yet. I'm not even sure they are here.

[jimfromit]

Oh I know dear old Dr John Watson and Mycroft Holmes are around. They're playing hard to get though, probably gossiping like schoolgirls about how I’m the Irish boogieman in a sharp suit.

[There’s a crash as Moriartys houseguest decides to inspect his ornaments.]

"Sigh" If the castles reputation is anything to go by I’m sure your friend Nathan will be here soon enough.

[youhavebeenflynned]

Bet they do. [Small smile.]

[Harry hears the sudden crash through the journal.]

Sounds like the cow is looking around your room. [Grins.] He's not a friend really. We're competitors in this business. We have worked together though and we used to be friends. [Frowns.] I don't think he would like to meet me. I kind of tried to kill him the last time we met.

[jimfromit]

God they always hang on to that whole tried to kill them thing don’t they?

[Another crash] You know id skin it and make it into a jacket, except cow skin is so tacky and I wouldn’t have a thing that goes with it!

[youhavebeenflynned]

[Smirks.] Oh yeah, they tend to do that. But I think we stopped being friends after I betrayed him and he got sent to Turkish prison for three months. But he was going to betray me, I just beat him to it. [Grins.]

[He then makes a frown.] Speaking of that, for the job we needed three people. But I can't remember who the third was. My memory has some blanks there.

Anyway, that person probably wasn't important. [Shrugs.]
Speaking about your cow problem, you could always skin it and make a couch or armchair of it.

[jimfromit]

So you took a rival, knocked him off his pedestal right down into the gutter with the ordinary people? There’s something about that which is really stylish!

[And so very familiar.]

Missing memory hmm? Has anybody explained about the losses you get upon arrival?

/new tag

[youhavebeenflynned]

[Smirks.] Yeah I did. He deserved it too. You can say he and I was very different. I'm always prepared for work, he improvised his way through. He did lots of boring research while I focus on important stuff like how much it's worth and where I can find it.

[Harry then tries to recall the memory in question.]

We was going to do a heist at a Turkish museum to find a oil lamp for our client. Nate, my old buddy and... rival you can say, had done that heist before so I asked him to help. Last time he did that he was the only one who came out alive from it though. Difficult job but not too difficult for me. We did need three people though. Me and Nate to find the lamp and a third one to cut power and drive the escape car.

I just can't recall who that third person is. [Frowns.] It's like there's some kind of mental wall there. It just gets fuzzy when I tries to recall it. [Shakes his head.]

[Harry is very annoyed at the fact he can't recall a simple memory. Jim might pick up on that from his body language.]

Losses? No, not what I can recall. [Shakes his head slowly.] So what are these losses?

[jimfromit]

I’ve been informed that the castle takes something that’s precious to you as a "deposit" for your stay. It can be anything…a memory, an item, or ability.

I had my phone taken which in the grand scheme of things could be worse. [It’s an irritation but there's nothing he can do about it.]

Chances are this third mystery person for your job was probably very important to you.

[youhavebeenflynned]

Really? Why haven't anyone told me that? [Frowns.]

A phone isn't that important, not here anyway... but a memory, several I bet, that's just...

[Harry groans and rubs his forehead.]

Well aren't that just lovely... [Sighs.] I don't got a lot of important people in my life. It's hard to keep up with them in this business.

[Mumbles.] Why couldn't I have forgot all about Sully instead...

[Shrugs.] Well not much I can do about it now, right? I'll just have to get new ones. Still annoying though. Thanks, mate, for telling me. [Smiles.]

[jimfromit]

We did say on my first day here we could help each other. I decided to start alittle early with the helping.

Besides like you said, you could always get new memories...more fun memories!

[youhavebeenflynned]

I appreciate that. [A pause.] Which means I need to help you, just so that we're more even. [Small smirk.] So... do you need help with something?

[Grins.] True.

[jimfromit]

As much as I love your eagerness, I’m afraid there’s nothing I require assistance with just yet.

However should I need a man of your particular talents at some point in my stay all I have to do is whistle right?

[youhavebeenflynned]

Alright. [Nods.]

I would prefer that you ask rather than whistle, I'm not a dog. [Raises his eyebrow.]

[jimfromit]

Oh don’t fret sugar. I’m just using a figure of speech.

I wouldn’t trust you if I thought of you as a simple pet and believe me I don’t trust easily.

[youhavebeenflynned]

Just thought you should now, sweetheart.

That's good to know. I don't trust easily either.
