Two adult men circle each other like wary cats, the post
WHO: James Moriarty, Sherlock Holmes, and you!
WHEN: Probably after the whole...murder discussion thing
WHAT: Two men have found their way, and as is normal for them, immediately start blaming and barking at each other. And then after the girls are done fighting, they'll be around snooping in the area.
[Today, there's...a commotion in the auditorium. Looking out from the hallway - or approaching when you were already inside - will give you an eyeful of what looks like two adult men - one tall, thin, and with slicked back black hair, and the other with a head of gray hair and a mustache - in high school uniforms warily circling each other while also apparently talking.
One of them - the older man - has a decent set of lungs on him, which is probably what drew you to look at the courtyard in the first place.]
"...Blaming me for this, Holmes? How very arrogant of you!"
[The tall man is shockingly pale, his eyes daring around then back at the short man, his movements harried, sounding oddly breathless when he retorts]
"Can one be blamed when you always seem to be on the edge if not right in the middle of suspicious incidents?"
"Surely you can't believe I'm responsible for all of this! Isn't it much more likely we both got dragged to some kind of Singularity?"
[A pause and an unreadable expression flits across the tall man - Holmes' - face. His arms folds over his chest, his right hand gripping his left forearm tightly in the process, shoulders hunching up]
"...It is possible."
[The older man gives a scoff, shaking his head.]
"Yes, because I just happened to find another demon pillar to team up with, and chose a school to do my dastardly plan in."
"Fine. You're probably not involved. And no contact from Chaldea..."
[The younger man paces, still tightly gathered into himself.]
"Can't rely on outside here..."
"At least you can make out that in your current state."
[The men continue to circle and bicker as they keep their eyes on each other, practically wearing out a path with their feet as they do so.
There's the feeling they're not going to stop until someone breaks them up...Or, maybe you should leave and try to catch them later, alone?]
((OOC: OKAY SO - Moriarty and Holmes will have Individual top levels with prompts you can hit up, if you don't want to be involved in their little weird circle dance up top. If you DO, then just comment to this post and we'll both reply!))

[He extends his hand, smiling broadly.]

[ Diona shakes the others hand, and then just as quickly retracts it back. There is a very bratty way in how she stands. With her legs spread out, her little cat shoes pressed down along the floor. With her fists balled up on either side of her waist. ] Okay did you wanna see other stuff now too?
no subject
Hmhm, then I will be waiting for good news! And...
[He takes a moment to look her over, smiling a little fatherly at how she's standing - before giving a nod.]
Yes, please - with a guide at my side, how could I ever turn down such an offer?
no subject
Oh okay! I heard the adults talking about it one day, and so I thought I would go peek.
[ Diona is naturally a bold individual, traveling and exploring back in the day was something she ordinarily do. Even when there were pesky Fatui about, individuals who were akin to the evil doers of her world- terrorist's. She leads him, each step taken was large. With her arms held outward as she perfectly balances herself by always walking on the balls of her feet. She's actually use to constantly walking like that - however these shoes she wears. Do not allow her to - so presently her shoes are in her hand and she is strolling down the halls. They are going to the third floor. ]
The floor upstairs smells stinky, I think I remember the water leaked!! The adults were saying they were gunna clean upstairs and fix it.
[ Diona adds for commentary, bouncing up every step and twirling with absolute balance and ease. Its good its beyond the hours of school and only those who were stuck here, were currently free to roam.]

He watches her cavort around, smiling to himself - the innocence of youth is something that's always delightful to watch, even if she's a little rougher than Nursery Rhyme, but not as rough and tumble as Jack.
She's also thankfully fully clothed - he'd tried giving jack pants before but she just tore them up - and he nods a little as she chatters on about the condition of the floors.]
The adults, hm? Others like myself, or the teachers of this institution?
no subject
[ Well it didnt matter she pushes the door open and then her small hand points up to the ceiling. ] There's a HOOOLE! I want you to help me get in it!!
[ Inside the bathroom it would look rather beaten and a heavy stench of cleaning supplies having apparently run through it. Above them is a hole that was yet to be covered, however as it were it seems the passing days of school. People left it as it were, when the murder had happened. ] Up! Up! I want to gooo inside!!
no subject
[Children can't easily distinguish between adults at that age, after all.
When they get to the bathroom, and he sees the hole...hm.]
Wouldn't it be rather dark for you once you get in there?
[He does see the cat ears, but!! It's a good way to get her to stop and think, because even he's a little leery about putting a child in an unknown hole in the ceiling.]
no subject
no subject
Hm...what to do here....well, she's clearly determined, and he can't bow out from their deal.
So -]
Very well - just be certain to come back out immediately if something is wrong.
[Time to....carefully pick up this child and lift her towards the hole in the ceiling!! This is fine.]
no subject
no subject
[PLEASE CHILD HIS BACK!!
He gives a light groan, but then blinks at her response.]
...Well, I would assume so. A pipe burst there, did it not?
no subject
[ There's a little gasp that comes from her in the distance, she calls - ]
Lily May is that you? Come back!
[ Off she goes.. SHell be back... Maybe... Hopefuly.. Soon.. ]
no subject
[Well then.
He'll just...sand here in this stinky room, waiting for a child to come back from the hole in the ceiling.
This is fine.]
