Dear Sherlock Holmes: Do Any Of Mr Mikotobas Friends Ever Ask You To Dance. If Yes, Do They Say "go White

As soon as Barok responds to the first letter, red handwritten writing begins to appear on a blank page. It’s as if the letter is being written right in front of him. Though he can’t see anyone writing the letter. “I’m surprised you aren’t panicking over my letter, or scrambling to find a logical solution for a letter written in your deceased brother’s handwriting.” The letter says. 👻

Dear brother,

I have spent quite some time wrestling with my relationship to the truth. It was my unwillingness to see what was in front of me that led me down this ten year long path. Had I only been more open to the knowledge that was so clear, so plain, so far under my nose, our legal system could have been investigated far earlier.

So, as I see handwriting from my brother, written by no one visible to my eyes, I can only believe that it is you writing it. If you wish to prove who you are, you could always do something to help me believe further. I see no other way this could be happening.

Signed, Barok.

Dear Irene,

Does Yuujin know about you or how important you are to Sherlock? How does he feel about you?

This ask is gonna be really silly for people who don’t know about your version of Irene.

Dear Anon,

Of course my dear partner knows about me. He is well aware of me, who I am, how I differ from Sherlock. He is proud to go on about town with a stunning figure like myself on his arms. He is practically the talk of the town when he does so. I know he feels differently for me than he does for Sherlock, and I cannot blame him for that. It is easier for the two of us than it is for the two of them. I am certain you can understand why.

That being said, he brings joy to me and I to him. In the end, that is all that matters.

Love, Irene Holmes

Dearest Rosie,

If you were miraculously gifted a supernatural power, what ability would you want?

Dearest anon,

I am not quite sure what supernatural power I would wish to have! The list is practically endless, and I have spent many hours sitting and imagining what I could do with a bit of magic in my life.

Due to my name, I have always felt quite a fondness for plant life. I think it would be quite the delight to be able to control the life and death of the plants around me. What ability would you want?

With fondness, Rosie

hey genshin will your ghost associate with klimt’s ghost

Regrettably, it does seem I am stuck with him.

...Though, I will say, it has been rather entertaining to spend more time with him... In life, neither of us got as much time as we would have liked.

Mod Update: brief hiatus!

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to take a brief hiatus from answering questions. You're absolutely still free to send them in, in fact, I encourage that! But I probably won't get around to answering them for another week or so. Sorry for the trouble!

My dear cousin Henry,

I have solved your little puzzle and I must say, I fear for you. Truly, I do. I do not know what fate awaits you, but I can only plead for you to find some way to avert it. Holmesies and I will find some way to discover the truth about your circumstances if the need be, but I hope it does not have to come to that.

With great concern, Iris

two questions for asougi kazuma-san: 1) would you still love naruhodou ryuunosuke if he were a worm and 2) would you still hate lord van zieks if he were a worm

To Ribbonroad-san,

It is good to hear from you again, friend. I have heard that you have asked such questions from several of my acquaintances, and thus have been trying to find my way into a coherent answer. I'm afraid I don't know if I will be able to provide an absolute reason why for these answers, but yes I would still love Naruhodou if he were a worm, and no I would not still hate Lord van Zieks if he were a worm.

I would love to elaborate, but I fear I simply cannot. I know deep in my heart of hearts that these answers are true. There is nothing more to it.

Respectfully yours, Asougi Kazuma.

M... M- Mr Asman!!

Well I never imagined this! That this unusual postbox would allow for a contact with the afterlife!

🤯 H- Hello! I- I'm Nos E. Prick, reporting for The Daily Circus, sir! Oh, you sir, have no idea! You are a myth, a legend amongst us young journalists!

QUESTION!!!: What is the secret to effectively utilizing 🎩 gentleman power🎩 to achieve one's life goals?

With great admiration! 😍

Mr Nos E. Prick

Dear Mr. Prick,

It is wonderful to hear from someone who holds me in the regard I have earned over the course of my life. I do not understand the mechanics by which the living are able to contact me in this afterlife, nor have I really figured out how to contact others undead, but I am happy that I was able to hear from an upstanding young man as yourself.

I cannot speak on just any life path, but I do know how to achieve one's goals if such goals are in the esteemed field of journalism. The advice I will give will be obvious, though not easy to follow.

You must do anything you can in order to get the news. You may find yourself causing scandals anonymously so that you can be the one to have the first story out about it. You can bend the truth if it would benefit you, because outright lies are far easier to prove than simple exaggerations.

Involve yourself with those who make headlines. Politicians, criminals, wealthy men... anyone who can give you a leg up on the competitors. Create good relationships with those who are in the thick of conflict or scandal, and they will tell you about it. Do not be afraid to portray their side of the story. Outrage still pays the bills. If you desire more advice, I could go on and on, though I would hate to bore you.

Yours, Odie Asman

souseki-san, if someone, say, a century from now, wanted to include you as a character who is a silly goofy little man in their fiction, would you want your hypothetical descendants to agree to such a depiction?

Ribbonroad-san,

I am rather fascinated by your question! The mere idea that someone would choose a man like myself in a story a full hundred years in the future is somewhat absurd. Does this mean that I will gain some sort of notoriety? Will my musings be popularized and recalled long after I am gone from this earth?

While I am not entirely certain that I would like to be remembered as a 'silly goofy man', as you said, I am honoured that they will remember me at all. So, I suppose I would have to say yes.

I have a question for Knife Juror. You're my favourite Juror, but how do you get away with possessing a knife in court? And what is your profession? Trace.

Trace,

I'll have you know that I'm an absolute professional. The knife is just a sign of the work I do, eh? I'm a barber by trade, Aiden is my name, and they said they couldn't find anyone else, so they let me. If they had a problem with me knife, then they should've had a problem with that girl's weird smoke gun.

And... thank you. For the favorite thing. I appreciate that.

Signed, Aiden Richmond (knife juror)
