ADVENTURE 003: Jobs are Dull
[Action; Pharmacy.]
[Sherlock had heard about the possibility of being droned, so here he is at work. And he's actually, you know, working. He's not here for his own gain, nor to do research. And he's actually pointing customers in the right direction, after telling them something about themselves they'd rather keep hidden. He doesn't sound like he wants to help. He sounds more like he's here under threat of punishment - which is pretty much true.]
Need help with anything?
[Action; City Bench.]
[Sherlock is reading a book - or pretending to. He's actually watching drones and people milling about. He's hoping to try to think his way out of this place. And he's hoping by observing others, he'll learn something.]

[ He's not going to stop until he gets it right. ]
The problem is making Sherlock Holmes into a criminal isn't easy since pinning crime on him would likely result in your exposing the real criminal right? It had to be something the media could believe and something that couldn't just be disproven. If that's the case it couldn't be anything like physical evidence-it has to be circumstantial. Something you can't just talk your way out of.
[ Which means it had to be something that an ordinary person wouldn't understand and therefore- ]
[ He smirks. It's the same smirk he usually wears right after solving a case ]
The main thing people find extraordinary about Sherlock Holmes is your ability to add up the small details to create a bigger picture- like a surgeon will always have two indentions on their index fingers from the many incisions they make.- But most people don't think like you do- they don't follow that kind of logic because they don't see the significance.
The only way Moriarty could have possibly pinned you to a wall, er-so to speak- would be to use that against you- you couldn't talk your way out of it because most people like to accept the answer that makes sense to them. So if someone were to say all those deductions were fake...

So, what kind of proof was it?
Re: [ Action - Bench ]
[Sherlock scowls at that.]

...Our situations aren't really all that different.
Re: [ Action - Bench ]
[Sherlock would never stoop so low as to compare himself to a 17 year-old.]
[ Action - Bench ]
Of course-you have a better advantage in the sense you know what you're fighting. All I have is their missing traitor, Pandora's box and a few clues that don't add up.
Re: [ Action - Bench ]
[Very mature, Sherlock, argue with the kid.]
[ Action - Bench ]
Besides, you've never faced the organization and I've never faced Moriarty. Neither of us can say for certain which is the more difficult situation-especially with a natural bias towards our own black cloud.

[Meaning it's not worth the argument, but he has to get the last word in anyway.]
