Hi, sorry this took a while too, but seriously it was such a ***** to write. uggh.
Anyway I hope it's okay...
He finally jumped.
And things had gone wrong, he could tell.
Which is why he was here to set things right.
Merlin had briefly gleaned information about the plan from all parties involved—he looked into the minds of Moriarty, Molly, & Sherlock. Right now he could feel the desperation rolling off him in waves. The genius's mind was speeding away with his thoughts. Merlin gave him a few minutes before he decided to take matters into his own hands—slowly, slowly he telepathically encouraged him to jump. Simply jump. Shut down his major thinking process, slow down, and just focus now on one thing. Of course even then the detective was analyzing the angles he would have to jump at to survive.
Merlin sighed, slightly exasperated.
Why did The Doctor leave this one to him? This was more his general area— science & logic, Emrys was better with humanitarian and nature aspects of the universe.
Finally he was able to get Sherlock's mind to relax and just focus around one thought and intention, jump, though he allowed his mind some leeway with whatever angles his body would go for his own peace of (stubborn) mind.
Finally, he jumped, and Merlin immediately slowed his descent and rotated his body at the last second so it lay parallel to the ground.
He also sort of removed the consciousness from his body, so that his mind and body would be 'disconnected' for an hour or so, so his heartbeat stopped as well as any internal process; although he let the side of his face bleed for the sake of reality.
He could hear Sherlock's mind panicking after the initial shock, as well as trying to make sense in his confusion.
Merlin decided it would probably be best to explain it all telepathically while he was still 'disconnected' from his body, to ensure it all got stored up in his 'mind palace' as well as to make sure he couldn't interrupt.
*Time to do this druid style* he thought wryly
"So let's start off with introductions, my name is Merlin, or Emrys, but if we were ever to meet in public you would do well to remember that I should be called Martin.
An old friend of mine tipped me off that a certain someone who is very important to history is planning on making the biggest leap of his life.
Literally.
And then I was requested to station myself here to make sure nothing goes wrong.
Not to mention my girlfriend happens to love making mischief, especially with this petty 'Moriarty' fellow, thank the triple goddess he's dead, he was really annoying, what with his completely psychotic brain and criminal techniques..." he let out a shudder just thinking about it, before continuing."Thank you, by the way; you got him to blow his brains out—much better turnout than what I expected, especially since it got rid of my girlfriend's new distraction.
Anyway, I have suspended your soul, spirit, whatever-psychotronic force if you prefer, from your body and it should last about two hours, which not only makes your body practically dead, but it gives Molly plenty of time to make sure you're publicly dead, before you'll have to start hunting down the other ugly sniper fellows.
Seriously, other than Sebastian, they're all pretty hideous.
Okay, I have to run and make sure my calculations for the planetary alignment is correct for this evening, but I'll be back, and I'll stick around as much as I can to help out, try to be nice to Molly- none of this is her fault and she's been doing a marvelous job of helping out.
Right I really have to go like NOW, I think my girlfriend is up to no good again, so I'll be back soon.
Don't wait up."
Then he left, because somewhere across the country he was feeling someone's mischievous glee through their mental connection-whether she was aware of it or not, which meant he had to go there right now and make sure she's not trying to topple another government.
I said Moran isn't ugly only because I kinda believe in the MoranxMoriarty ship, so I figure he wouldn't have gone after an ugly man LOL, as well as to be able to succeed that much I also thought Colonel Moran should have at least somewhat looked the part xD
Should I do Sherlock's POV next or should I follow Merlin for a little bit first?
Review if you can?! lol and if you have any advice :)
