Dear Irene,

To the aspiring scientists Albert Harebrayne, what are your thoughts on the phenomenon known as vampires?

Dear ace-chaser,

V-vampires?? A frightening concept indeed!

I've read the novel Dracula and have, of course, heard rumours about my close friend Barok, insinuating he may be one of them. I have had a close eye on his activities for a while--I have been visiting him since the Professor ordeal has finished--and can say that he has not done anything out of the ordinary.

How Romantic a concept, though. A creature who thrives upon death... I shudder to think of it.

To mod of Baskerville

Is there anything that you are itching to write about or get an ask for?

To anon my beloved,

I am itching to write about just. Anything. I love writing stuff and I love answering questions, I love talking about random headcanons I have. If you have a question for even the most random of characters, it's entirely possible I have an entire backstory for them.

I particularly love exploring relationships we didn't get to see much of in canon, like Susato and Kazuma, Kazuma and Iris, the original exchange trio, etc. I love the original exchange trio and their weird group of friends so so much.

With excitement, Mod of the Baskervilles

NARUHODOU ALERT: THE GIRLS (asougi and van zieks) ARE FIGHTINGGGGG!!!!!!!

Augh!

I have done all that I can to prevent such a thing from happening, and have received countless letters already detailing how precisely Asougi feels about the man. He tells me both of certain incidents that have happened as well as how his personality grates against everyone else's.

He had told me that van Zieks is in a much brighter mood as of late, though, so hopefully the fighting should stop soon! Though I will admit I do not know the contents of this fight in particular.

Thank you for letting me know! Naruhodou Ryuunosuke

Humphrey Van Zieks,

We hope you will take a few moments of your time to respond to our survey.

You are the father or lord Barok, yes? How many other children have you fathered? Is that number different from your amount your wife has had? Names of said children, would be appreciated.

Your response will be recorded anonymously. Thank you for participating in our survey

To the FDGSCB,

I find your questions rather insulting, though I feel I have no choice but to answer them. Yes, I am the father of Lord Barok. Of course I am. In terms of other children, I am the father of the late Klimt and Rosamund, with my wife, the late Eloise.

In terms of other children, how am I supposed to know? It is not my responsibility to keep track of them. I am not the one who was pregnant, nor did I live with anyone else who may have been. I was with my wife, with whom I had three children.

To Maria- What are your thoughts on pets? Have you ever had one? What kind of pet would you want to have if you could? Signed, Ivy

Ivy,

I find animals to be quite fascinating. They are the ideal companion, and can help quite a bit when trying to discover things about the human anatomy. Did you know that pigs have a remarkably similar...

I've gotten off track. I do that a bit. I'm working on it. I've been told that humans--people, that is--prefer when you stay on the one topic of conversation. It's difficult. This is another reason why animals are fascinating. As they do not understand you, they will not reprimand you for getting off topic. I find this to be quite noble of them.

And, yes. I have a lovely pet rat. She is lighter than even my hair.

mr holmes, im sure you corresponded with dr mikotoba during your separation, so how did you hide that correspondence from iris? i cant imagine it was easy

My dear Ribbonroad,

It was indeed rather difficult to hide such a thing from such a precocious young lady. Fortunately for me, she is quite good at understanding my need for privacy! I did not lie to her per se, but she took to thinking that such things were secrets that could affect the outcome of various cases I was on. I simply indulged that belief of hers.

She did sometimes try to sneak a glance at our letters, but she knew better than to take them from my hands. She understood the need for my own privacy, as I gave her hers in turn. I know that Iris was intrigued by the contents of the letters mainly because she recognized the handwriting of my most dear partner.

Perhaps someday I shall share some snippets of our correspondences with her. Some, however, are a dearly private matter between the two of us.

Dear cousin Iris and Papa and Daddy,

My brother Henry had been acting weird lately.

You see my brother is a prosecutor like papa and is known as the storyteller and lately his been depressed and I don’t know why ever since his last trial.

What do you think I should do?

With love your daughter and cousin Heather Kelly Van zikes

To Heather,

Sometimes things can be very taxing on people! I am not sure what exactly the context of this trial was, but what I do know is that you are always free to ask. Even if you don't come up with an answer, you will at least know that you have tried.

I've found that whenever Papa or my Uncle Barok are feeling down, when I just spend some time with them, they tend to feel much better.

I hope you can come up with a solution!

Iris

Hey, Hosonaga. Have you ever considered getting that cough checked out?

Dear Uniquartz,

What do you mean? I am perfectly, fine, it hardly bothers--

Ahem. Excuse me. I have not visited a doctor, though when Dr. Watson was dining with us, I did happen to cough while around him. He stated that it was something that would most certainly kill me. But, he is not a doctor for the living! He was a doctor for the dead.

Though, now that I think of it, perhaps he's seen some people who have died to my condition.... I really should go see someone about this...

Mod Update: gifs

Hello everyone!! Currently I'm in a bit of a weird place where I can very easily answer asks but for whatever reason physically cannot add gifs, and occasionally tags, to the posts. Sorry about that! Hopefully I can update the posts later. Thanks for your patience! Keep the asks coming in! <3
