(moriarty has two "modes" which is basically just him as a more sociable grad student sort and then his mastermind LARPsona! i'll mark the different "modes" as indicated)

1. SUBSTORY - ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US (nerd mode)

[Hey...are you here checking out this internet cafe with all of its issues, too? Well, someone is already here, dark blue eye makeup and all, putting his hands on his hips as he continues on with some kind of argument with the owner.]

Look. All I want to do is like, put a virus on there. I'm no programmer, but it shouldn't be too hard. If those guys want to steal it, then they'll pay the price. ["I don't want anyone to put viruses on my computers!"] Look, don't you get it? They won't come back if they know that its not worth it, w-what- [And now the owner is just throwing their hands up and walking away.] Come back here! It's totally a good idea! Mathematically sound, in fact! Ugh!

[Don't mind him, he's just going to move to slump in a seat with his head in his hands going UGHHHHHHHHHH]

2. SUBSTORY - BOUNTY HUNTIN' (crime mode)

[Moriarty is playing nice. Of course, he'll be a diligent little worker for the Enma. Sometimes, one has to do exactly what they're told before they can get anywhere - he doesn't have a hold in this world like he did when he was alive, or in that dream of a Singularity, so play nice he must, for the information, at least.]

[Which is what he's doing now, scouring the streets for anyone suspicious, or interesting - even if he recognizes a face or two, that isn't stopping him from walking up, dark eyes narrowed as he says in his most authoritative voice.]


You, there. Tell me what you're doing in these parts.

[And if you're a fellow Enma, he'll simply sniff, unimpressed.]

Are you making any headway in this investigation? One would hope you're not slacking off.

[Mean!]

3. GENERAL - COSMOPOLITAN CALLED THEY WANT THEIR ADVICE BACK (crime or nerd mode, you choose!)

[When he has downtime, a certain someone can be seen browsing through some magazines at a local stall in the Tamamo district - he's bored, obviously. There's a lot to keep his mind on, true, and he is meaning to find out more information, but he, out of curiosity, has picked up what is obviously a trashy romance magazine, complete with 100+ NEW SEX TIPS and IS YOUR BOYFRIEND CHEATING ON YOU? TAKE OUR QUIZ TO FIND OUT stickers emblazoned on the cover.]

[Curiosity killed the catboy, however, and he's making random disgruntled noises as he flips through it, finally stopping at a page - he squints down at it.]


"Cook dinner topless, put a little tomato sauce on your chest, and ask him to lick it off?" [He looks APPALLED.] What kind of nonsense advice is this? Who wrote this?

[And then another flip of the pages, another noise of disgust.]

"Use a ruler to gauge how much his di-" [A look of >:O] That's NOT how you use a ruler!

4. WILDCARD + CLOSED PROMPTS

[holds everyone's hands please please please IF YOU WANT CLOSED PROMPTS PLEASE HIT ME UP VIA DM OR crystal#4450 on discord! I'm also vampirize@plurk! Or just throw a random prompt at this nerd, I'll roll with it!!]

Hmph.

[And people tell her she's cranky. But as if to appease him, Amelia holds out her box of confections and offers him an untouched treat.]

Did you eat yet? I haven't had these before, but they're quite tasty.

[ the what ]

Isn't the tongue made of skin???

[ begins to vibrate in place... ]

And what's a Loga... loader. What is that, did you invent it? I wanna see it! Show me right now!
recluserose: (You like me and I like it all)

[personal profile] recluserose 2022-09-23 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. Well, I continue to learn something new every day.

[There's a twitch of a smile there somewhere (she hasn't smiled all that much, notably). But she shrugs and gestures for him to help himself again.]

Then even less harm done to you then. Consider it research.
recluserose: (As if glasses make you seem smarter)

[personal profile] recluserose 2022-09-23 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Why is this version of Professor James Moriarity such a... Child? It's uncanny, how his distrust is just like a high school student who projects their inner turmoil onto her before she can set the record straight.

Amelia raises a brow.
]

I'm just sharing. And I meant that it's for you to research.

[She won't push anymore though and the box recedes. She plucks a wagashi made of mochi out of the box and eats it up before acknowledging him again.]

Reading is one thing, but seeing, hearing, and tasting are ways to explore what's unknown.

For an "arbiter of evil," you could certainly do to be more well-rounded.

[Be a flexible villain, Moriarty, gosh (also she may be weird and socially awkward, but that doesn't mean she doesn't notice him eye the box; high-school teacher skills and all that).]

But everyone and everything is temporary isn't it? Or are you implying something else?

[One hand reaches up to touch her pendant— she keeps forgetting it's absent, damn. Amelia glances at the Servant.]

Well, you don't have to tell me yet. I offered you a wagashi because I thought that would appease you. I've no ulterior motives, psychological or otherwise. I do understand that my demeanor is hardly personable.

[personal profile] recluserose 2022-09-23 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
You were grumpy and if I know anything about people— [Her friends made fun of her for barely getting by on reading others.]

—Sweets are nice. And they can cheer you up.

[She'll even give him a small smile.]

I do have two more and I suddenly find myself not being able to finish them. Someone ought to help me eat them before they disappear like a mayfly.

I'll consider that a small victory against this budding mastermind criminal.

[She happily gives him the rest of her wagashi.]

Speaking of criminals... It wasn't on my very loose itinerary for the day, but there's been talk of a drifter from the Wastelands. Or claiming to be.

[Her glasses are adjusted as she contemplates.]

The owner of the confectionary store had been complaining about them for taking advantage of their generosity.
mechspeed: (tell me honestly)

To my understanding, apprehending them would require paperwork and processing in the aftermath.

[And he doesn't have the patience for it, he's (metal) sonic the (robot) hedgehog (maybe), speed is of the essence.]

I have forcefully persuaded them to rethink particpating instead. They have been adequately warned dismissal of these warnings will warrant harsher convincing in the near future.

[ whoa. is that the real ruler, right before his very eyes?

of course murr makes grabby squeezy hands at measuring implement, the slightest bit of pink sticking out in between his lips. ]


Hey! Lemme see it, please!

[ pwease. ]
inspiteful: (Otherwise do we just live)

[personal profile] inspiteful 2022-09-23 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
So not literally ghosts, but something like...copies of once-living people?

[ Nevermind, this is pretty messed up. ]
sweetsong: do not take any. ty. (149)

[personal profile] sweetsong 2022-09-23 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh. so now ruler's willing to play nice? ]

To do what?

[ he hears escort, he gets a little nervous??? ]
inspiteful: (So I say it's always been wrong)

[personal profile] inspiteful 2022-09-23 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ For some reason, Skylark finds himself thinking back to how Hizen had so sharply insisted that he's a killer's sword. In that sense, they were a little like gods—a god may influence their domain, but it didn't mean their domain didn't influence them too. ]

So...who are you, then?
