Subject: Crabs
Warnings: Small mention of broken arm, Ranma's general idiocy

[The video feed opens up to a calm, relaxing beach viewing with waves gently crashing on the shore and crabs scuttering along in their own little world. The screen would change to front-facing mode to show Ranma sitting on the beach, left arm bandaged and in a cast and a few crabs climbing on and off of him. He seemed almost wistful, as if he's about to poise a sagely question...]

Think anyone here tried cooking any of the crabs here yet? [... or not.] Or at the least tried to get a leg off the big one. Imagine how much you could make with just a leg!

[Ranma no.]

Just uh... Just a hypothetical. [He's totally not salivating right now.]

It does not, but I have said my piece and have other tasks needing my attention.

[ Because this is going nowhere.

Not twins. Any twin position would have been filled by Jon. Sorry, Ranma. ]

[catsgothistongue]

Do you really?

[He's calling your bluff, detective!

Damn it!]

There are relics to find, challenges to undergo, any number of tasks to complete. We are not yet leaving this place with the information we hope to gain.

[ It's not even a bluff! They are here for a reason, not just to think about seafood. ]

[catsgothistongue]

[Oh. Right. A-doy, he should've figured that Sherlock Holmes would be the one who wants to uncover every nook and cranny for anything worth poking around.]

Right, I know that. I've been through a few of those challenges myself. [How do you think he broke his arm?] What kinda relics are you looking for?

[ There is a long pause before Sherlock replies, long enough that it almost seems like he is not going to reply. ]

The crab relic fragments the local population of crabs wish us to find.

[catsgothistongue]

Oh, right. I heard about those. Haven't had any luck digging those up myself.

[astudyinviolet]

Now is the perfect time to refocus your efforts.

[catsgothistongue]

I guess. Then again, I have better things to do than go scavenger hunting.

[astudyinviolet]

Then this is where we part.

[catsgothistongue]

Bye then?

not here

[astudyinviolet]

[ There is no reply. Sherlock is just like that. ]

also not here

[catsgothistongue]

[RUDE! How is it Ranma has more manners than you sherry??]

still not here

[astudyinviolet]

[ Says the person talking about eating the locals.

And sometimes Sherry is just a brat. ]

very much not here

[catsgothistongue]

[Like Sherlock's never thought about eating some animals he sees!

Two can play the brat game here!]

the most not here

[astudyinviolet]

[ Never. Because Sherlock doesn't eat nearly as much as he should and would try to live off coffee and the occasional toast or sandwich if left unchecked.... ]

NOT HERE TIMES INFINITY

[catsgothistongue]

[sherry take care of yourself my god even ranma knows that trying to live off that is stupid.]
