A Week in Rural Scotland

[rainne]

Thank you for joining us here in picturesque Glen Macalie, on the shore of Loch Leven in the Grampian Mountains of Scotland. We welcome you to the campus of the Glen Macalie School for Girls and hope that you will enjoy your stay.


This week will largely be unstructured; you are welcome to investigate the castle (which dates back to 1237 CE) and the nearby village of Glen Macalie. Some resources which will be available to you include:

In the castle:
Comprehensive Library
Modern Kitchens
State of the art Training/Exercise Room
Extensively landscaped grounds and gardens
Horseback Riding
Fishing
Hiking

In the village:
Shopping
Pubs and restaurants
Museum
Historical buildings
Golf

We ask only that you take care to observe the following rules:

1) Please do not leave campus near or after dark.
2) Venturing too far outside after dark, even on campus, is not guaranteed to be safe. You do so at your own risk.
3) There will be occasional evening events. Participation in these events should be considered of minor risk; however, anyone taking part should endeavor to follow all directions to ensure his or her safety.

If you have any questions, please feel free to see Mr. Giles or Ms. Summers.

*notices him and scurries over*

Um... can I talk to you?

- Molly

*hisses*

What are you doing here? What is my brother doing here?

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*leans in and whispers* I think he's... meeting someone here. *doesn't know how to say that it's Lestrade and it's sort of a date*

I was invited and I came. I've been taking vacations since... *bites her lip*

- Molly

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

Meeting someone? He's...

Oh. My. God.

My brother is here to have sex. Must delete.

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*shifts uncomfortably*

We should, um, talk about something that's going to bother you more.

- Molly

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

What could bother me more than Mycroft's sex life?

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*blurts it out* He knows you're alive. And John. They both know.

*looks down, unable to meet his eyes*

- Molly

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

*pales*

They can't. They can't know. All this is for nothing if anything happens to them.

*really looks at Molly for the first time since the conversation started*

You slept with John.

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*looks up at him, eyes wide and teary* I'm so sorry. That they know and that I slept with him.

He's not actually interested in me.

- Molly

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

If he's truly not interested he's a fool.

You're better than anyone he's ever been with and he's better than anyone you've ever been with.

It wouldn't be intolerable.

~Sherlock, who's clueless to human emotions, obviously

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

Not better than anyone he's ever been with. *looks into his eyes and wills him to understand for once*

- Molly, who wishes he weren't so clueless about this ONE thing

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

John's not gay. He's said as much enough times.

~Sherlock

((And thanks to mafia, he has a crush on Fiona, but he doesn't know what all the emotions he's feeling means.))

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*feels actually angry with him for reasons she isn't quite aware of - perhaps her massive feels for John >_>*

He's fucking in love with you, Sherlock Holmes!

For someone so brilliant, you're an idiot sometimes.

- Molly, the most depressed and sexually frustrated character I've ever played

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

*stares at her*

No. He can't be.

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*holds her arms out to her sides*

He can't be. Why can't he be?

Because it's not possible for someone I care about, someone I maybe have feelings for to be in love with someone else. Because that never fucking happens. You fake your own death and my life still revolves around you. And John's in love with you. And the only man who has flirted with me since Moriarty starts dating your brother.

*takes a deep breath as tears start to fall* Because everything revolves around the Holmes brothers. Everything.

- Molly

((So... she's had this coming for months now.))

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

LESTRADE! MYCROFT'S DATING LESTRADE!

HOW DARE HE!?

~Sherlock, who totally didn't process anything else she just said

((Poor Molly. Sherlock really needs a kick in the ass for what he's put her through.))

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*nods* Yes. Of course... of course that's what you took from that.

*leans in, staring straight ahead rather than having to look at him*

You should have let me go on believing that I didn't matter, because I know it's true.

- Molly

((He really does.))

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

You do matter, Molly.

~Sherlock, who knows he's done something a bit not good, but has no clue how to fix it

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

Fine. *lets her arms fall to her sides and just cries*

- Molly, who gives up

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

*awkwardly hugs her*

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*brings her arms up awkwardly around him, breath catching for a moment - she wants to be angry with him, but she can't deny that he's trying*

I'm... sorry.

- Molly

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

I think that's supposed to be my line.

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

*smiles at him softly* Baby steps.

- Molly

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

I'll still do things that are a bit not good. Probably a lot.

~Sherlock

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

I know you will. And I'll still care about you more than I probably should for how mean you are to me. *smiles again and wipes her eyes*

- Molly
