The name is Sherlock Holmes.

WHO: Greg Lestrade and Sherlock Holmes
TONE: Learning.
RATING: PG-13
WHEN: 28th September
WHERE: Library
WHAT: Greg's just doing his homework in the library where he finally meets Sherlock Holmes.
STATUS: Ongoing
NOTE: Not at the moment.

Well, he took the advice over the journals and went through his homework properly. And at least he was alone in the library so he could work in peace and quiet. The only sounds that could be heard was the scratching of his quill, his quiet breathing, and the slow crackle of the lit candles all around. Head bent over the piece of parchment, he swore silently over the length of the homework. It looked like he was going to be here all night.]

Sherlock sighs. It's all so simple, really.

"As I said, your disinterest in your coursework is evident in your penmanship. Bold strokes can sometimes be evidence of self-importance but that isn't within your character so forced diligence it is then. I've observed you on enough occasions to know that your work generally looks as such for classes but that same bold stroke is not as evident in your journals. I doubt most people would notice, though. But there is enough of a difference for it to be assumed that it's not just one or two assignments of classes you don't enjoy but the whole subject of magic is not something you have decided will be very important in your future. You're much more interested in people and activities than scholastic endeavors which is fine enough for your age and physical build but most muggles are much more interested in the nuances of this new world that's been open to them than you are. The thrill has been lost. You're nearly disillusioned, really. Your sights are set beyond this to the point where Hogwarts is more the distraction than your own thoughts. That much is obvious in your general posture."
