smt 5 weirdness because it's us and we love silly au's
Yet, something was strange. Enough mana in the air to sustain a Servant, and - most obviously of all - no clear Grail or Master having summoned him here. This would have this go from 'just a singularity' to something a bit more...interesting.
Eventually, he'd most certainly find himself embroiled in whatever was going on, but for now? Well, he couldn't say he wasn't enjoying the slight break - even with the few glimpses of strange fairies and phantasmal beasts every so often.
It was the murmurings of strange murders that made him internally realize that, as always, a certain detective would be soon to follow in his footsteps. It was not a matter of if - only when.
But did it have to be this early?
Only a few days after his summoning, Moriarty found himself in a train station - idly staring not at the wide blue tarp set up covering a grisly crime scene, but at a tall, blue-black haired englishman flitting about trying to gather more information about the crime...and the odd fairy at his heels.]
I see you've the habit of picking up strays, Holmes.
[He doesn't yell, but he knows Sherlock will hear him, even in the middle of this crowded place, amidst all the confusion.
He has to.]
no subject
Even though he didn't get a good look before the tarp was thrown, he saw and heard enough to know this is not a human-caused death.
Once the corpse was loaded and taken away, the detective melts into the crowd joining Moriarty, along with the odd little fairy]
Who's this guy, he looks like a chill guy, hee-ho!
This one decided to tag along.
no subject
At their approach, Moriarty inclines his head towards one of the seating areas around the station, where there are much less people wandering around at the moment. Though they are speaking english, it's not as if there can't be polyglots in attendance.
Once they've made their way there, it may as well be time to get down to brass tacks.]
I was wondering when we'd cross paths - the moment I caught wind of the murders in this city, I was certain you wouldn't be far behind. It seems I must always be shadowed by you if I am summoned!
[Huff huff grumble grumble]
...Still, I've no doubt you've noticed how odd this Tokyo is.
no subject
It seemed like as so far we're the only ones from Chaldea here - this is an odd place, it feels much like a simulation running on low settings.
Summon? I had thought you seem weird for a hee-man.
no subject
[He looks over at the comment the fairy gave, quirking an eyebrow.]
Oh? That is something you can tell, then?
no subject
It's almost as if they're conditioned to see this place as normal - and you may notice that no one is paying our friend any mind.
You're right! I didn't even think about you not giving me a cold shoulder, Mr. Holmes.
no subject
[He won't comment on the 'demon' thing, since that's clearly just what Phantasmals are called here.]
Including demons coming to murder humans - though I suspect the victims aren't 'true' humans.
[Or maybe they are? It's just the feeling he gets.
...Though good lord, how dim IS this fairy?]
However, I presume 'not being allowed in' means that there is somewhere else you demons are supposed to be?
no subject
Yeah, but I'm not here to hurt hee-mans, I just want to have fun! Normally we are in Da'at.
Da'at...?
Heep! Also call the Netherworld.
no subject
[Like, you know, his present company.
Though his shitlord grin fades as he hears the terms the fairy uses.]
The Netherworld...is it?
[Realms of the dead were commonly known about, but it also having the name of the hidden sephirot of knowledge gives him pause. It's also a far cry from the Reverse Side of the World, or the Inner Sea of Stars at the center of the planet, where all Fairies come from.
They may be quite far off from 'normality', but clearly this world still had enough human order to call servants, so how...?]
...At the very least, it is good to know you're being followed by a relatively harmless being.
no subject
[If there's attempts to cover up or if there's a guided intelligence among the faceless humans, what to look out for if Ritsuka ended up here to keep her from becoming a statistic]
Right-ho! Those rude angels don't want us with hee-mans. And because I don't want to hurt them doesn't mean I'm harmless. I'm Jack Frost - and I'm a N-ice one, but there's some really Hee-vil demons in Da'at
no subject
Wait, he can't even shoot back at holmes because he caught something very interesting to his british (and catholic raised) ears.]
Angels? Could you elaborate a bit?
[The Heavenly Host of all things is involved in this? Perhaps it might also be pretenders, but...]
no subject
Oh you're definitely not demons if you don't know. There was a biiiiig war between God and the Angels, and the rest of us demons. Lots of people on both sides died, including the old world - all the humans that were left got brought here.
[Holmes' brows shot up]
