• Post with a character journal you'd like to voicetest or you've considered apping to Ruby City. Feel free to play them as newcomers or as if they've been here for a while - the setting is your own choice.

•Respond to other threads with new characters or with characters who are already in the game.

• Explore different interactions, find castmates, develop possible CR - anything you want, as long as you have fun!

I... Guess... I'd never be able to do something like that. I get squicked just by fake blood on television and jabs. I can't watch shows like ER and those doctor-y shows. I'd probably get uncomfortable acting with fake blood. You actually see dead bodies...

[A laugh escapes him, it was genuine, he's enjoying the act and the good company. The shuffling stops for a moment as he seems to mull over something.]

No, I doubt it would make it to America... A memory game? How do you play?

[The shuffling begins again]

Oh, if you really feel like doing, pick something up we both can enjoy, I'd hate for you to bring something you could not indulge in. But really, you don't have to.

It's not for everyone, I agree.

[Usually he likes to text while he walks, but this was a pleasant enough distraction. It wasn't often that he was able to engage in conversation, especially since he arrived here.]

It requires several television sets and enough recorded material to work with. I set them up in a way so that I may observe all of them at a certain standing point in my living room. They're all on at once, of course, then I stop one television set, recite what comes next, turn it back on and see if I'm right or not.

[Making a soft hum as he stops mid step, then backing up to peek into a shop he was about to pass by.]

I realize how that may sound, of course, but it does what is needed.

['Richard' will hear a little ring as Sherlock steps into the shop.]

You didn't have to offer me a room, this is the least I can do. Just from the sound of your voice I can tell you are a man of finer things, so I will try and not disappoint. Given my sobriety this may be a challenge... but perhaps I can improvise.

Impressive! Very interesting, so memory and multitasking...

[Knowing Jim he would try it with multiple languages...]

I think it sounds brilliant, actually! I bet that takes a lot of skill.

[He goes quiet for a moment to listen to what he's hearing on the other side of the watch.]

I can brew some tea, do you drink tea?

[roofbees]

Yes, it was a trick I mastered in-

[Ah. He clears his throat then, growing quiet for a few seconds.]

Just... a trick I've learned. [Finished lamely. With the offer of tea he seems to have made up his mind on what to get.]

Yes, yes I do.

[While he prefers coffee, he could not say no to tea. Inherited British thing.]

I'll let you go then, Richard. I need to run this errand and then I shall be there shortly. Provided I do not get... distracted along the way, it's been known to happen.
