Funly enough, your penis has never come up in conversation before. Given your current reaction to it, I'm rather sure it won't either. It's not exactly useful information anyway.

[3houseswatson]

And if you're right and the living me comes back, I hope it never becomes useful information.

[He sighs, a dry and hollow sound that probably comes with the territory of being a ghost.]

You're absolutely sure nothing can be done to stop this sooner? Get the me you're used to back alive and well and get me... well. Not here, like this.

[3potionproblem]

We're not a couple.

[Sherlock looks the ghost over but... yeah, no, that's definitely a ghost.]

I don't know how to bring people back from the dead. Just have to trust for now that the castle will make things right.

[3houseswatson]

Good. Er... that probably came out a bit wrong. Not 'good' in the sense that, y'know, that that kind of thing is inherently bad or anything. Just. It'd be... unexpected. If that were the case. Which you say it's not! So kind of a pointless thing to think about at all, right?

[Dead and awkward, could this day get any better?]

Yeah, well, please excuse my lack of faith in the castle right now. It better put things right, or I'm going to go full stereotype haunting on it. I'll find some chains to rattle and everything.

[3potionproblem]

Right. Don't worry, I don't lose any sleep over you not finding me attractive.

[He smiles. No awkward here.]

What will you do in the interim?
