We need to talk. Soon. Preferably.

( james watson )

[ Clears throat. ] Hey.

You okay?

[ That should be enough, right? Should be enough to tell him that he saw that argument, right? He's just checking in, making sure he isn't doing what John is think he is doing. Which he probably is, if he is anything like Sherlock (which he supposedly is meant to be). ]

Did anyone else feel... odd yesterday? [ He frowns. What sort of question is that? Good god John. ] Like something else was controlling your emotions, in a way. And that same thing was, watching almost everything you did?

[ A pause. Way to sound crazy, John. Asking this was a bad idea. ]

[arealwoman]

Let me guess, you ran around and panicked?

[confidente]

[ A laugh. ]

No, no, there was no running.

[arealwoman]

Metaphorical running then.

[confidente]

[ A beat. ] Something like that.

[arealwoman]

And did that help?

[confidente]

Not really.

[arealwoman]

You might want to remember that next time.

[confidente]

Yeah, I think I will.

[arealwoman]

Good. [ So... ] You ready to think this thing's real yet? [ Even if you have been. MOCKING ]

[confidente]

...I'm ready to consider it. [ HE APOLOGIZED. ]

[arealwoman]

Consider isn't as much thinking. [ WRONG WOMAN TO ANNOY ]

[confidente]

[ A sigh. ] Yeah, well it's still a little difficult to accept all this.

[arealwoman]

Yeah, I know that. You think everyone here comes from somewhere where this is normal?

[confidente]

Not everyone. Which is even more bizarre.

[arealwoman]

How is it bizarre when it's not normal for you?

[confidente]

It's just the fact there are people here who think this sort of thing is normal.

[arealwoman]

You might have a point. [ MIGHT. Aka totally ]

[confidente]

[ Aheh. ]
