[Chang.]

Right. Well. Okay.

[She's taking it all in stride, isn't she? It's been awhile for her, but the danger will be good for her.]

[the_new_sexy]

Also, it may take a while.

A matter of weeks.

John can feed your cat.

[britta_ftw]

I don't see why we can't take her along. We are supposed to be a family now.

[She grins.]

Husband of mine.

[Britta forgot how fun it was to tease him with that.]

[the_new_sexy]

[Eyetwitch.]

If I don't get to bring John, you don't get to bring your pet.

[britta_ftw]

What? You can't -- that's not fair though.

[And is Sherlock equating John with a cat again? She loves Lady Ranicorn very much and she's her faithful companion, but seriously. A cat does not equal to a human, especially John.]

[the_new_sexy]

Yes, it is.

If you get to keep the cat, I get to keep John.

[britta_ftw]

And what we going to pass John off then? He looks too old to stick in some shorts, a striped t-shirt, and a beanie and call him our son, y'know.

[the_new_sexy]

And what would two socialites have with a cat? Cats leave fur everywhere.

If we were going to have something, it would be a purebred dog.

[And cue liberal insanity in 3, 2, 1...]

[britta_ftw]

[Britta doesn't have anything against dogs, but, for argument's sake, she does.]

What?! Cats are nice and friendly and sweet and they don't leave fur everywhere! Why do we have to get a dog? Are we going to conform to the stereotype of two and a half kids, a dog, a white picket fence, and a 401 K, dear?

[Well, they certainly argue and bicker like an old married couple.]

[the_new_sexy]

Yes, we are. Because those are the sort of people who are targeted by this killer.

[britta_ftw]

Well, you know what I -- oh.

[She's about to renew her attack when a thought smacks her in the face like a plastic bag on a windy day.]

Did all these people have dogs?

[the_new_sexy]

Three of them did. It's a symbol of status in upper class families.

[britta_ftw]

[Really? She always figured that her family just had dogs 'cause they really liked dogs or something.]

And how many families were killed?

[the_new_sexy]

Families, none. Five children have been murdered so far.

[britta_ftw]

Oh. [She seems to deflate at the thought of children being murdered, but the fingers digging into the palms of her hands say she's rightfully angered by it.]
