Subject: Since everyone seems to like surveys around here, I've got one for you!
Warnings: Possible talk of canon deaths?

I've noticed that people around here like surveys and I thought I'd join in on making one! Some of you may know that our first year anniversary of our arrival here in this world is coming up real soon. Like two weeks - give or take a few days. So I thought I'd see who else has been here as long as I have! I feel like I've seen at least most of the "veterans" once or twice and if we haven't talked yet:

Hi, I'm Nimona!

Right... the survey! Feel free to answer anonymously!

1. How long have you been here?
2. Are there other people from your world here? (Optional: How many?)
3. Have there been people from your world that have already gone home? (Optional: How long were they here and how many?)
4. What was your first "event" in this world?
5. What's been your favorite "event" so far?
6. Are you here to live out the rest of your life, or are you looking for a way home? (Optional: Why?)

I'll answer it first!

1. 16 days away from a year.
2. Nope!
3. Like briefly one person on new arrival day and then never again.
4. Ghoul's Moon.
5. Same answer as above. It was pretty fun fighting all the undead. I guess the Masquerade Ball was pretty okay, too.
6. Maybe? I dunno, this world is a lot better for me than my own.

Now it's your turn!

I thought I arrived on the tenth day of a month, but perhaps I was mistaken. A lot was happening all at once.

[ He was questioning his sanity and dealing with this being a water world with giant leviathans upon arriving here. He could easily be wrong or confused over his exact arrival date. ]

I suppose alternate universe is an apt way of describing it. My brother Mycroft was already here with his friend, but he wasn't the brother I knew from home. He also had his own younger brother named Sherlock, who wasn't me. However, it was not a case of us sharing names. Neither of us were lying about our identities.

I mean, the tenth sounds pretty close. But from what I've noticed, people are showing up every other month. That means we're all about to be an even number. I'm rounding up.

[ Some people just roll with what's happened, other people freak out. She's not about to judge (much). ]

Did he look like the brother you knew or different? Do you look like his brother? Sort of like a freaky doppelganger?

[astudyinviolet]

[ Sobs I must be counting his activity log wrong. ]

Neither of us looked or sounded like the brother we knew. However, we had too many similarities to be completely unrelated.

[ time is hard and fake. ]

That must have been freaky and also kinda nice. Having a brother from another timeline.

[astudyinviolet]

[ It is! ]

If nothing else, I have learned that my brother is not completely infuriating in other worlds or timelines.

[ Sherlock misses Mycroft more than he cares to admit. ]

I don't have any siblings, but from what I've observed of humans - sometimes you just grow up with this annoying woodpecker. It drills at all the same holes, knows all the soft spots.

Then comes along a similar woodpecker, but it doesn't know all the spots yet - so it finds more tougher spots. Eventually, it'll make it's own soft spots.
