Please Leave a Message After the Beep!

How do?

1.  Post with your character! Leave their name and series in the header if you so wish.

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR COMMENT BLANK!

Add a a sentence or two with what your character's answering machine message would be.  It can be as simple as 'Leave me a message and I'll get back to you' or be more creative and come up with something really cute and IC.

2. Respond to other people's posts and leave them some very urgent (or not so urgent) messages.

3. Go check your own answering machine and call those guys back!

The person you are attempting to reach is not available. Please leave your message after the tone.

[womanwhobeatyou]

Of course you wouldn't have personalized your voicemail. I should have changed this too when I had the chance.

[the_new_sexy]

I see no point in personalizing something so rarely utilized. SH

[womanwhobeatyou]

So you DO listen to them. That is very good to know.

[the_new_sexy]

I doubt you're surprised. Numbers I recognize get different treatment, of course. SH

[womanwhobeatyou]

Does that make me special?

You never did answer when I asked John.

[the_new_sexy]

It wasn't my conversation. SH

[womanwhobeatyou]

It is now.

[the_new_sexy]

John is very secure in his own sexuality. SH

[womanwhobeatyou]

That makes two of us. You?

[the_new_sexy]

Aren't you supposed to be asking me about dinner or something? SH

[womanwhobeatyou]

Maybe later. Wouldn't want to be too predictable.

[the_new_sexy]

True. Predictability was never your strong point. SH

[bigbrotheriswatching]

Call back.

[the_new_sexy]

[This placeholder indicates Sherlock is ignoring you.]

[bigbrotheriswatching]

[Next message.]

Sherlock. Call back or I'll phone John.

[His voice is tight.]

I have a John who will hop in to pass the phone, if you want!

[the_new_sexy]

[This placeholder says that Sherlock all but stares at his phone with a sort of COME AT ME BRO expression.

Immaturity runs deep, Mycroft.]

Sounds perfect!

[bigbrotheriswatching]

[Phoning John, in that case.]

SIGH SIGH SIGH ;)

[pulling_rank]

[John is busy two finger typing away at his keyboard, putting up another of their cases, and frowns when he sees his phone begin to vibrate. It shifts across the table towards the edge before he grabs it up.

He answers it.]

Yes, hello?

[bigbrotheriswatching]

Tell my little brother that Aunt Agnes is in London.

[Mycroft says this like one might say THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING.]

[pulling_rank]

[John frowns, pulling the phone away from his ear to stare at it a moment, and then looks over towards Sherlock. The urgent, perhaps worried tone in Mycroft's voice is unmistakable.]

Uh, Mycroft says to tell you that Aunt Agnes is in London.

[the_new_sexy]

[Before John even gets to the 'in London', Sherlock all but drops the petri dish he's holding and dashes over to John, to snatch the phone from his hand]

When?

[bigbrotheriswatching]

She boarded the flight an hour ago. We have less than two.

[pulling_rank]

[Having had his phone abruptly wrenched from his hands by a panicked-yes, he is actually panicking-Sherlock, he's left to just stare. He knows very little about the Holmes' family.

This is--interesting to say the least.]

Sherlock, is everything all right? What's going on?

[the_new_sexy]

Put on the blog that we've got a case. She will check.

[back to Mycroft]

Is a car on the way?
