GREETING SINGULARITY & PERMISSIONS
HELLO SINGULARITY. This is Ammay of thunder god fame bringing you one (1) Sherlock Holmes from the '09 movie! He's coming in post movie and will still be mercilessly untactful.
WHICH BRINGS ME TO MY NEXT QUESTION - I'll be putting up a permissions post on his journal in a few days but for right now I'm just throwing this out here.
If you don't want Holmes to make uncannily accurate deductions regarding your character and their past/everything, please let me know! What I do is basically troll applications, wikis, whatever and come up with what I feel could lead to Holmes making the deductions. Let's take Deadpool for instance! ( with thanks to Pat! )
SO SOMETHING GENERALLY ALONG THOSE LINES is what I'd limit myself to - nothing super specific that I can't generally back up with some sort of reason why. And all would be based on specific things that Holmes have noticed in game. If he hasn't see say, someone avoid all alcohol, he's not make an assumption that they're an alcoholic/have a family history of it. ALSO unless your character asks him to do what he does there won't be any aimless history digging - just offhanded comments.
If anyone has any questions at all or feel like I'm stepping on toes, just let me know!

- disdain for personal safety and seemingly not bothered by any damage incurred = nothing to live for - was there past emotional loss? highly likely ( healing powers?! )
- treatment of the world as an entire joke ( references to an RP, meta jokes ) = reinforcing hiding real pain and emotional trauma
- antics that seem to draw attention to himself = a desire to be noticed (even accepted?)

Terry - idk quite how to swing that, I definitely don't want Holmes to be able to look at him and go OH HEY BATMAN. I think it'd be better if we just play that one by ear if we tag them at any point? :|a...
Charles- 'wow this lad is a spoiled, Oxford-educated prat, spent most of his life in America but born in England, recently paralyzed, etc etc'. I'm cool with him knowing p. much everything but the telepathy right off the bat. Charles is a bit of an open book that way. If the telepathy ever comes up we can talk about it? :3
Thom - I HAVE NO IDEA IF THEY'D EVER EVEN TALK but it's obvious that he's a career soldier, mildly uncomfortable in command due to ~past fuckups~ and is generally pretty laid back.
everyone also has their apps in their journals if you need to peruse anything!
