[ Anyone Looking for Accommodations in the City Royale ]

[There's an address written in.]

Rent's paid through next month. Take it, I don't care. Landlord will be thrilled, I'm sure.

If there's more than one of you, settle it yourselves.

Quite the entertainer, our Paradisa. Parties and festivals and carnivals and balls. Don't know how you're not all sick of them, they happen frequently enough.

[He doesn't sound that bothered, though. In fact, there's a distinct upward swing to his tone. Someone's in a good mood for the first time in a long, long while.

There's a pause, and his voice starts to wander like he's splitting his attention.]

Still, can't complain. This one has the potential to be decently interesting. Ah, excellent.

[There's faint hissing in the background, from what sounds to be at least two or three of the fairies.]

Oh, be quiet. That's hardly the worst I could have done.

...You're collecting them? [You freak]

[workaphilic]

I'm sampling them.

[onlyanapple]

...When you say sampling, you mean...?

[workaphilic]

I mean I'm taking a sample so I can adequately compare them to the fairies that were here in December. What else would I have meant?

[onlyanapple]

...

Sherlock are you dissecting the magical fairies?

[workaphilic]

Not yet.

[He doesn't seem to see what the big deal is. The fairies start hissing again.]

[onlyanapple]

I'd tell you this is a really bad idea, but I have to admit I'm morbidly curious as to what they'll do for revenge.

[workaphilic]

[He scoffs.]

I'm not concerned.

[onlyanapple]

Your funeral~

[workaphilic]

My mild inconvenience until they're sent away again. I'll simply have to suffer through in the meantime.

[For science!!]

[onlyanapple]

Unless of course they murder you.

[workaphilic]

Still temporary, even if they could manage it. Which would be interesting enough on its own.

[onlyanapple]

I...

Sometimes I really wonder if you're a real human, you know that?

[workaphilic]

Oh, very real. That's what makes it fun.

[It's amazing that one person can sound that smug about essentially being called a weirdo.]

[onlyanapple]

[Sherlock, Crowley is utterly convinced you're broken in a very important place]

Sure it does.

[workaphilic]

[That is probably an incredibly fair assessment.]

Why not? More fun to be human than to be anything else. Said yourself you preferred them.

[onlyanapple]

I do, but I'm yet to be convinced that you actually are one yourself.

[workaphilic]

Well, let's hear it, then. [This has the potential to be fun.] What suggests I might not be?

[onlyanapple]

...You mean besides the fact you use your brain like a computer?

[workaphilic]

Yes, besides that. Having an above average understanding of how my own mind works makes me intelligent, not nonhuman.

[onlyanapple]

I've met some of the most intelligent humans in history and none of them were as weird as you. Not even Leonardo.

[workaphilic]

Congratulations. They sound boring.

[onlyanapple]

You've clearly never had a piss up with Leo otherwise you wouldn't call him 'boring'.

[workaphilic]

Evidently not.

I think I'm fine having missed out on that particular experience.

[onlyanapple]

You'd want to miss out on spending time with Leonardo Da Vinci? I thought that was a wet dream for you nerdy types.
