8.0 Day in the Library (Spamlogs)

[Private to Sherlock]
At your convenience. I will understand if the way is impassable, however. I found myself among a wetland on my way this morning.

[Vasilia is in the library, shelving books and generally getting the lay of the stacks. When she sees something out of place she goes for it-- surgical, putting it back in order as if she blames it for being out. Patterns, she's always been good at patterns.]

[She the book with pursed lips, flipping through it, eyes darting across the words with a great deal of confusion-- she not having the context for Victorianna-- then eyeing the woodcut on the cover and looking at him dubiously.]

And the ramifications of being a fictional construct, and what this means about your competencies and validity as a thinking being, if you please?

Alternate universes, millions upon millions of alternate universes. In many Sherlock Holmes is a fictional construct. In mine, he is a living, breathing, thinking being. Both are true. Both must be true because here I am and here that is, both existing simultaneously.

It certainly raises interesting questions of pre-destination and free will, but then those are much the same questions theologians have attempted to reconcile for centuries. Only in my case, I know there is a God, and his name is Conan-Doyle. [He may make a good show of not being fazed, but that last is said with more than a hint of bitterness.]

Aboard the barge you can at least be certain that you are outside of his sphere of prediction. Likewise Rinzler! So I do not see why his status is pertinent to our experiments at all. [She lifts her chin]

I refuse to compromise my few points of stability because you are apparently fictional, sir. I will not take it into consideration with Rinzler, nor with you nor anyone else. And you cannot convince me to do otherwise. [Which, besides being imperious and self centered, is also an admission that she depends on Sherlock to some extent. But then, she's darkly convinced that he's deduced it somehow already, so no harm in admission.]
