If we've started a thread on a meme and you'd like to continue it here instead of in bakerstreet or wherever, then we can do that here.  I'll post headings and links to the specific thread below.

I might understand more than you think.

I'm fine, John.

<sub>[ Because how can he explain that his mind tears itself to pieces without something to latch onto? How can he explain that he is his own worst enemy, that his head has it in for him the second tries to turn his thoughts off? There are days where all he can hear is the infernal buzzing of his own thoughts ricocheting around his head, every second of every day getting louder and louder and louder until it's all he can do to shut it up - but those aren't the worst days.

No, the worst days are when his mind grinds to a halt, when he's trapped in torturous silence because his mind hasn't had enough stimulation to keep it running running running.

Those days are the worst. But there's nothing to say, no way to explain it away - so he doesn't bother. ]</sub>

I told lots of people that when you were dead. Funny, they never seemed to believe me either.

Look, we don't need to talk about it. Just remember I'm still here, yeah? And I'm your friend. And together we can probably find something for that big ridiculous brain of yours to focus on that's better for it than some stupid cocaine research study.

ok?

It's your turn to bring dinner home tonight. Pick wisely.
SH

[combatdoc]

You mean you haven't already deduced what I'm going to choose? I'm shocked.

[logicals]

Shut up and get some aromatic duck with the Chinese.
SH

[combatdoc]

If I get it then I expect you to actually eat it.

[logicals]

I'm not on a case. I'll eat.
SH

_{[ ... a mouthful. maybe. ]}

[combatdoc]

Good. You could use some feeding up. You're starting to look like a posh scarecrow.

[logicals]

So long as it's not a common scarecrow.
SH

[combatdoc]

Pretty sure you couldn't be common if you tried.

[logicals]

Excuse you, I am an excellent actor. I Somehow I think I could manage it.
SH

[combatdoc]

You can manage to be a really striking sham of someone else, yeah. But that's not exactly being common.

[logicals]

The common aren't all that difficult to replicate, hence common.
SH

[combatdoc]

The unique isn't all that easy to hide. Even for an excellent actor.

[logicals]

Flattery will get you anywhere.
SH

[combatdoc]

Will it get you to buy the milk this week?

[logicals]

Very doubtful.
SH

[combatdoc]

Somehow not surprising. Will flattery at least get you to pick a case that will pay our electric bill?

[logicals]

Also doubtful. I refuse to take the case of the lost black cat; Tiddles is going to have to find his own way back.
SH

[combatdoc]

Bluebell the rabbit turned out to be an interesting case. Maybe Tiddles the cat will turn out to be at the heart of a secret government research conspiracy as well?

[logicals]

Bluebell the rabbit glowed in the dark. Tiddles the cat is ginger and is more likely than not stuck up a tree.

How much are they offering? I could climb a tree by myself for the right price.
