Never heard of her.

Seems the castle just delights in torturing me specifically, then.

SH

[confidente]

Poor you. So sorry I can't do anything to save you. [ He's not really. ]

You two should take the time to bond.

[workaphilic]

Really hope that's your poor attempt at a joke.

SH

[confidente]

No no, I'm being deadly serious. [ He types as he tries not to snicker. ]

[workaphilic]

[HE KNOWS WHEN YOU ARE LAUGHING AT HIM oh my god he's going to break something.]

You should feel lucky it's not you trapped here with him. You'd almost certainly starve.

SH

[confidente]

[ Okay now he's really laughing. ]

Don't let him get to cake.

[workaphilic]

Not so foolish that I'd put myself between him and a cake. I do have some regard for my personal safety.

SH

[confidente]

I didn't realize he becomes that feral at the sight of cake.

[workaphilic]

Truly terrifying. May have scarred me as a child.

SH

[confidente]

Probably shouldn't invite him to any birthdays then.

[workaphilic]

Yours is next. Best be on your guard.

I suggest a veggie platter.

SH

[confidente]

Might pass. Not much point celebrating your birthday in some deluded coma dream where no one ages.

[workaphilic]

Flawed logic. Birthdays have always been pointless. Never stopped anyone before.

SH

[confidente]

People are sentimental like that. Logic doesn't really come into it.

[workaphilic]

Precisely my point.

Free to skip yours if you like, though. I skip mine, so it hardly matters.

SH

[confidente]

[ The reply comes a few moments later. ]/small>

When is yours?

[workaphilic]

Telling you defeats the purpose of skipping it.

SH

[confidente]

Maybe I don't want to skip yours.

[workaphilic]

You'll have to figure it out on your own, then.

SH

[confidente]

I'll just ask Mycroft.

[workaphilic]

Fine. A reasonable strategy, if a boring one. Assuming he tells you the truth, of course.

SH

[confidente]

Oh, I'm sure he will.

[workaphilic]

Obviously you underestimate how much he likes making my life tedious.

SH

[confidente]

How does not telling me your birthday make your life tedious?

[workaphilic]

It doesn't.

Telling you my birthday is something it isn't, that is tedious. More so than the birthday already is.
