Greg: Mycroft: Sherlock: Anderson

Wednesday 8th September

(Wed 1.30 pm)

Would you rather fight one horse sized duck or 100 duck sized horses?

(Wed 1.32 pm)

I've given some though to this. I was asked this in uni by Anderson. I would fight the horses as I don't like birds.

(Wed 1.35 pm)

Hello Gary.

(Wed 1.36 pm)

This Anderson sounds like an idiot.

(Wed 1.38 pm)

You aren't Mycroft.

(Wed 1.38 pm)

It's Greg by the way.

(Wed 1.40 pm)

Why are you speaking to my brother? Why has he been contacting you?

(Wed 1.43 pm)

I don't know why you care who your brother speaks to.

(Wed 1.45 pm)

Mycroft is a rather boring person, you might have discovered this by now. This is the most interesting thing that has happened to him in a very long time.

(Wed. 1.47 pm)
This is Sherlock isn't it?

(Wed 1.50 pm)

Who else would it be? Mycroft doesn't have any friends to steal his phone from him.

(Wed 1.52 pm)

Why is my brother speaking to you? Why are you speaking to him? He bought you lunch the other day.

(Wed 1.56 pm)

What of it? Mycroft is a nice enough bloke after a while.

(Wed 1.58 pm)

I have never spoken to anyone who has called Mycroft 'nice.' I'm rolling my eyes right now.

(Wed 2.00 pm)

Graham, you shouldn't be talking to him. Mycroft doesn't make friends and he is like me. He's a high functioning sociopath. Probably even more of one that I am.

(Wed 2.04 pm)

That is utter bollocks. I'm not taking advice from a stranger. Mycroft is a nice enough bloke and he's still speaking to me because he wants to. He had the opportunity to delete my number and move on but he hasn't.

(Wed 2.06 pm)

I don't understand what makes you want to talk to Mycroft let alone confide to him about your cheating girlfriend and your brother.

(Wed 2.10 pm)

Just to let you know as I don't know why everyone is saying it but my girlfriend isn't cheating on me!

(Wed 2.12 pm)

You've been looking through the old texts.

(Wed 2.14 pm)

I was expecting more interesting conversations, I am rather disappointed at the turn out. I rather liked Mycroft's deductions about you being uncomfortable with your sexuality admittedly.

(Wed 2.16 pm)

That is complete rubbish. I have a girlfriend.

(Wed 2.16 pm)

So?

(Wed 2.17 pm)

You need to be careful, Fatcroft might try and stick his big nose into your business. He isn't to be trusted.

(Wed 2.21 pm)

Jesus, you are such a prick.

(Wed 2.22 pm)

Mycroft is going to know that you were on his phone.

(Wed 2.23 pm)

I'm not a child. I'm going to delete these messages. It's his own fault for having an easily guessable password on his phone and he left his phone around while he stuffs his fat face with cakes.

(Wed 2.27 pm)

Why are you so horrible to him? If you were my own brother I would've punched you in the head by now.

(Wed 2.32 pm)

He sticks his large nose into my business and he is the most irritating person in the world, and he can do this while stuffing his face. No wonder his diets don't work.

(Wed 2.34 pm)

Why are you staying with him then?

(Wed 2.36 pm)

It is none of your business. Don't stick your nose in things where it doesn't belong.

(Wed 2.38 pm)

Whatever. I'm still going to talk to him. You aren't going to stop me.

(Wed 2.39 pm)

Didn't your mother tell you not to talk to strangers? Or let strangers buy you lunch?

(Wed 2.40 pm)

Mycroft isn't a stranger. I've been speaking to him for a while and I know him.

(Wed 2.42 pm)

How can you know someone that you haven't met?

(Wed 2.43 pm)

I think that I know him if you want to be more accurate... I think that I've might have met him.

(Wed 2.45 pm)

Now I am getting interested.

(Wed 2.47 pm)

I might have spilt coffee on him a few days ago. I was walking in the streets with my mate and he shoved me into this bloke who was around my age, kind of reddish hair, wearing a suit and he had an umbrella on him. He glared at me after It happened and even when I tried to apologise. Mycroft complained about someone spilling coffee on him the same day I had walked into someone and spilt coffee on them.

(Wed 2.50 pm)

That was Mycroft. He is going to be thrilled to know that his new friend spilt coffee on him. It might be the reason why he stops talking to you, you ruined his new tie and he complained about it all night.

(Wed 2.54 pm)

You are not telling him that. He doesn't need to know.

(Wed 2.56 pm)

Mycroft is coming back now, I need to go, this conversation never happened.

(Wed 4.03 pm)

Where did you go after the morning lecture in uni? I tried looking for you and I couldn't find you.

(Wed 4.06 pm)

Yeah, I decided to get lunch off campus. Didn't fancy an egg sandwich for lunch and there were no doughnuts that I liked. A friend recommended a place for me to try.

(Wed 4.10 pm)

What friend was this? Did you go with Kate?

(Wed 4.13 pm)

I wasn't aware of the fact that I needed your permission to go and get lunch off campus without you.

(Wed 4.14 pm)

Just went on my own. It was the place called The Diogenes. This mate of mine recommended it.

(Wed 4.16 pm)

Was this Microsoft who told you about it? The bloke you keep texting?

(Wed 4.18 pm)

How do you know about Mycroft?

(Wed 4.21 pm)

Don't be mad but I had a peak on your phone while you were getting us drinks at Victor's party. You just kept texting all the time even when Kate was there.

(Wed 4.23 pm)

Who is Mycroft anyway? Is he someone from uni?

(Wed 4.26 pm)

Yeah...that is it.

(Wed 4.30 pm)

Wait...he's that stranger you've been texting? Kate told me that you were texting this bloke are you cheating on her with him? Did you go to dinner with him?

(Wed 4.31 pm)

I'm not cheating on anyone. Reminder to get a password on my phone.

(Wed 4.32 pm)

I didn't get dinner with him, I went to a restaurant on his recommendation. Why am I even talking to you about this?

(Wed 4.35 pm)

I am not talking about this anymore. I'm sorry Andersarus but this conversation needs to be made extinct.

(Wed 4.38 pm)

You don't need to get all huffy because I looked at your phone. You took a picture of me dressed up as a dinosaur and sent it to my mum, we are even now.

(Wed 4.40 pm)

I'm just being a prick. Just a bit stressed with uni, I did awful on that essay. Kyle isn't helping things. He keeps going on about leaving home and moving in with me. He keeps fighting with dad and I get involved in this circle of madness.

(Wed 4.42 pm)

It's alright. Are you sure you are okay? Are you going to let him live with you?

(Wed 4.44 pm)

Don't know. He's not happy with things and I moved out as soon as I could but someone needs to keep an eye out on mum and he's got school and I'm not letting him bugger up his exams.

(Wed 4.47 pm)

It will work its self out in the end. Do you think that Molly would want to go for a date?

(Wed 4.50 pm)

Don't think so. She's been asked out by Jim from IT and they are watching Glee together.

(Wed 4.51 pm)

That's fine. I will just focus on my crime scenes. I'm thinking about getting a pet lizard, I want to call it Anderlizard.

(Wed 4.53 pm)

You go and do you. I'm needing to work on uni stuff.

(Wed 4.54 pm)

Alright. If you know any good lizard breeds make sure to tell me.

(Thurs 2.00 am)

I'm sorry for texting at probably a bad time. I couldn't sleep.

(Thurs 2.13 am )

I was working anyway. Think that I might stop for the night anyway. This is a welcome distraction. I do apologise for not replying to your previous text.

(Thurs 2.15 am)

Great, now I don't feel so bad at texting you at a stupid o'clock in the morning. Working on anything interesting?

(Thurs 2.18 am )

Not particularly. I am finding a suitable university for my brother. He is refusing to choose one for himself.

(Thurs 2.24 am)

Speaking of your brother. I know that I'm probably not meant to tell you this, but he texted me earlier.

(Thurs 2.25 am)

He called you a high functioning sociopath. I don't know what that means though. Are you one of those?

(Thurs 2.32 am)

The term doesn't exist. My brother created it for himself. Why was he talking to you?

(Thurs 2.36 am)

He just wanted to know why we were talking. He told me that I shouldn't be talking to you and that you shouldn't be trusted.

(Thurs 2.40 am)

He is just talking nonsense. Sherlock isn't in the best of moods right now. He's moved out and now he's living with me. I believe he had an argument with our parents. He doesn't have the best relationship with them.

(Thurs 2.44 am)

I know but he's right in a way. I don't know you and for some reason I let you buy me dinner. Normal people don't do that, normal people don't talk to strangers. It's strange, I've never met you but I feel like I've known you for years. I might be crazy.

(Thurs 2.48 am)

I am not going to get involved with your life the way that I do with Sherlock. I am expecting nothing in return for buying you lunch. I wanted to perform an act of kindness.

(Thurs 2.53 am)

If you are getting uncomfortable we can cut off all contact, I understand.

(Thurs 2.56 am)

No. I don't want that. I like talking to you, you just make my life easier to cope with even if it is just for five minutes of distraction, as life has been pretty crap recently, I know that we've only been talking for a short time as well. I know that you don't like me saying it but you are like a friend, even though we haven't met and we are probably not going to. I'm just over thinking things.

(Thurs 3.05 am)

I would rather fight the horse-sized duck.

(Thurs 3.07 am)

:)

(Thurs 3.08 am)

That has cheered me up. Thank you.

(Thurs 3.10 am)

I'm glad that I could have helped you, Gregory.

(Thurs 3.14 am)

I should probably go to bed now. My head is clearer now.

(Thurs 3.15 am)

Goodnight Gregory.
