Sherlock: Impossible to Understand 2

Conclusion of Part 1.

And it turns out that the girlfriend's name is Mary Morstan and she cannot be repelled so easily...

Text/Dialogue:
???: But I also agree as well.
For us at least, it's pointless.
Pointer: New girlfriend
Sherlock: Obviously.
Because for us...
Valentine's Day is boring.
Text: What else did you think we were talking about?
Kiyoshi: So, how long do you give John with this *one? [*the girlfriend]
Sherlock: A week. Exactly.
Kiyoshi: Ten pounds says less than 5 days. He's starting to make them meet you sooner.
Sherlock: I'll take that bet.

End ♥

"But that's not even a canon character! No fair!"

Hey -- my game, my rules XD

Just kidding. I'm sorry if I disappointed some of you. No, I didn't have a canon character in mind. Never did. This simply spawned from the idea that both Sherlock and I happen to be single this Valentine's Day... and possibly future Valentine's Days. I'm antisocial and Sherlock is, well... Sherlock.

And so here I am, having a cup of hot drink with Sherlock (tea for him, hot chocolate for me) and people-watching. Quite fun, actually.

Now for the "game":
Remember in the other deviation I asked you to try and figure out on your own who you thought was with Sherlock, and guess what they were talking about (two really obvious topics I can think of; one innocent, one not so much XD). Now I want you to comment on both those subjects, and your reaction to getting them right or wrong.

I really wanted this to be fun for you guys, so I hope that it was.

Artsy stuff/ bagging on myself:
I stumbled in the first panel's dialogue, if it isn't painfully obvious. I was going to originally going to go with a simple "But I agree", but it contradicted the previous statement of "I disagree" in the panel before it and I messily tried to cover it up.

I put the chairs by the window even though they really aren't there. If they were, Sherlock and I would have had to move the couch and the desk to look through the window. And why is John on the other side of the street anyway? Is there a coffee shop there or something? I have no idea. He and his girlfriend have no business being there if there isn't.

I tried to end it on a humorous note, but I think the transition between dark and mysterious to fluffy and comedic didn't work out so well. Darnit.

And that coffee table has magical powers; disappearing in one panel and then reappearing in the next. *insert X-Files music here*

Happy Valentine's/Single's-Awareness Day everybody!
