[This was not what Sherlock expected when he was going over his usual sweep of Network activity. Yes, newcomers were popping up again, but John left. John left and Sherlock slowly accepted the fact, or at least distracted himself from it by doing more dangerous things far more frequently. The ten thousand dollar bounty he collected was proof of that.

But this was John's blogging style, not to mention the time of the entry was a good deal before it was posted-- his friend's typing was pitifully slow. The Core never did favors. This had to have a catch. Then again, wasn't subjecting John to this place bad enough?]

Not so much ominous as fair advice.

[ John wasn't expecting a response that quickly and he stares at the initials. he can feel the knot in his stomach begin to loosen and he types out a simple reply. ]

Sherlock?

[voice]

[caveatwalls]

[No, John, Stephen Hawking. The tail end of a sigh can be heard when Sherlock switches to audio.]

Don't type, it takes you ages. [That and he needs proof that it's really you.]

[voice]

[sittingtype]

[ there's some fumbling on John's end, before he finally switches to audio and his voice comes through loud and clear. he still sounds slightly out of breath, but relieved. ]

Sorry, just making sure. [ a beat. ] You're here too, then.

Getting in before dark tends to be a good bit of advice.

How bad can it be?

So you don't remember or recall any of this before? Or I should say do you know where you are? If not then... just remember there are monsters outside at night.

[ what. a quickish reply follows. ]

What do you mean?

voice;

[remembered]

[ Because Amy clearly talks faster than she types. It's always nice to hear a voice though, isn't it? ]

Yeah, they're not very good at being reassuring. But it's every bit ominous, apparently. I just got here, too.

voice;

[sittingtype]

[ oh, there's an audio feature on this thing? thank god for that. it's not going to take him five hours to type out a response and he happily switches. ]

That was the impression I got from them. When did you arrive?

voice;

[remembered]

[ and hey, he's english. she's been surprised at how many accents she's run into. ]

Ehm, yesterday. I haven't really had a chance to see what all the huff is about though.

voice;

[sittingtype]

I've only been here for... well, an hour or two now, I suppose. It's a little hard to keep track of time with this bloody.. [ he clears his throat and refers to the nausea after arrival and his own frustration at his leg giving him trouble again. ] They kept telling me to sit down.

[ and obviously, that was the last thing he wanted to do. ]

Ominous perhaps, but the advice is most sound.

[sittingtype]

I'll make sure to follow it.

A good look out of a window after dark will likely show you why most choose to stay indoors during the night. Though if you wish more details, there is information on it accessible through this device.
