Barok, have you ever think about the baskerville family ever since the truth of the professor case has been out in the open

Dear anon,

In truth, I do not think much of my sister-in-laws' family. I knew that she was not overly fond of them, though she did miss them, of course. I do regret that their name has become tied up in all of this mess, as the so-called 'Hound of the Baskervilles' goes down in local legend.

There is one cousin of said family who I am rather fond of, though he has long since distanced himself from his relatives. Perhaps as condolences to their family I could bring some gift to them, or visit their home, but... I feel as though I would be less than welcome.

Signed, Lord van Zieks.

What do you think?

Hello umi-teardrop,

I always think that the family trees people make to connect DGS with modern AA is interesting. I had a ton of fun creating my own family tree years ago, and I'm glad you had fun creating yours too.

To Dr. Harebrayne,

Your transportation device thingy is impressive and all, but the real important question is:

can it run DOOM?

To zhorrot,

I don't know what you mean by this question, but I have been informed that Barok feels an immense sense of doom whenever he hears loud noises as I reconstruct my machine!

Despite the fact that I have quite expert help in the form of Enoch, Sherlock, and Iris, no science is without its own flaws, and bumps, scrapes, and minor blowings-up are rather common.

Thank you for your question! Albert Harebrayne

As soon as Barok responds to the first letter, red handwritten writing begins to appear on a blank page. It’s as if the letter is being written right in front of him. Though he can’t see anyone writing the letter. “I’m surprised you aren’t panicking over my letter, or scrambling to find a logical solution for a letter written in your deceased brother’s handwriting.” The letter says. 👻

Dear brother,

I have spent quite some time wrestling with my relationship to the truth. It was my unwillingness to see what was in front of me that led me down this ten year long path. Had I only been more open to the knowledge that was so clear, so plain, so far under my nose, our legal system could have been investigated far earlier.

So, as I see handwriting from my brother, written by no one visible to my eyes, I can only believe that it is you writing it. If you wish to prove who you are, you could always do something to help me believe further. I see no other way this could be happening.

Signed, Barok.

"Barok, can you see this letter?" Is all the letter says. It's written in fresh ink, but the handwriting resembles that of his dead brother. 👻

No matter how I look at this, I cannot believe... and yet, when I ran my fingers over the letter, the ink smudged and spread as though it had been written moments before. The handwriting is undeniably familiar, the ink the scarlet he loved to use in his time.

So, all told, yes. I can see this letter.

Signed, Barok

Dear father-in-law,

I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to invite you to our baby shower, which will be held in three months.

I know that this invitation comes at a difficult time for our family, as we are still mourning the loss of my brother-in-law. His memory will always be in our hearts, and I know that he would have been so excited to welcome our new baby into the world.

We would be honored to have you join us in celebrating the newest addition to our family. Your presence would mean the world to us, and we hope that you can make it.

With love,

Lord Blackquill.



To Lord Blackquill,

Thank you for your kind invitation. I am certain that my husband and I will be able to attend this celebration, and we look forward to welcoming this new life into our family. I hope that our presence there will be able to bring a bit more life to such a dark time you and your wife have been facing.

Respectfully, Lord van Zieks.

Dear Mr Stronghart,

I do not care much for my parents since I was abandoned to an orphanage at a young age, and I don't normally use that surname but it is the only one I know of, as for if Mr Van zieks know about me....I don't think he does...

Signed,

T.V.Z.

To T.V.Z.,

Ah, such a sad fate he has bestowed upon you. I apologize for his foul treatment of you in this way, and I am not surprised that a woman who had a child by this married man would not want such a source of shame hanging over her head. It is impressive that you have managed to hone such skills in knifework despite your poor upbringing. You are clearly stronger than I had expected.

Signed, Mael Stronghart.

Dear Kazuma

You will never get it if you don’t ask Barok van zieks

Dear anon,

Assuming that this is in relation to the mysterious note I was given the other day, I asked Barok. He assumed it was about adoption as well, something that seems rather ridiculous, as I cannot be given up in that way anymore. I already have been adopted into a family and even so, I am at the age where I am now considered my own family of one.

Signed, Asougi Kazuma

Dear Kazuma

Never gonna give you up

Dear anon,

I appreciate the sentiment, though I am confused as to what you could mean by such a thing. Give me up to what?

Signed, Asougi Kazuma

To whomever wishes to respond,

Can you tell me something that is quick, is easy, and it is free?

To anon:

There are a great deal of things that are quick, easy, and free. Tripping upon the cobblestones. Making a fool of yourself. Pacing back and forth. Concerning your neighbors. Taking from children.

While I do not recommend any of those things, they are certainly quick, easy, and free. One must find ways to entertain oneself when one is bored.

To 🥀Rosie🥀

If you were a dragon, what color(s) would you be? What dragon traits would you desire? I think you would make a splendid dragon!

To anon,

It is hard to decide what kind of dragon I would be! I think I would like to be a dragon with warm colours, some lively pinks, oranges, yellows, someone that would fit in with the flower fields. I know dragons tend to be hoarders of wealth, but I would like to be a hoarder of happiness!

Love, Rosie Dragon

Dear Irene,

Does Yuujin know about you or how important you are to Sherlock? How does he feel about you?

This ask is gonna be really silly for people who don’t know about your version of Irene.

Dear Anon,

Of course my dear partner knows about me. He is well aware of me, who I am, how I differ from Sherlock. He is proud to go on about town with a stunning figure like myself on his arms. He is practically the talk of the town when he does so. I know he feels differently for me than he does for Sherlock, and I cannot blame him for that. It is easier for the two of us than it is for the two of them. I am certain you can understand why.

That being said, he brings joy to me and I to him. In the end, that is all that matters.

Love, Irene Holmes

To Sithe: This you and your daughter?

To Zhorrot,

My, my. That does appear familiar to myself and my daughter. Both of us have quite the morbid sense of humour. That being said, she has been drifting apart from me lately. Some of the jokes I make, she does not laugh at. It is disturbing. Perhaps you can help me find some way to earn back her closeness. It seems she wants to spend more and more time with children her age... utterly unprecedented behavior.

Signed, Dr. Courtney Sithe.

To the ghosts of Klimt and Genshin,

Between the two of you, who is the William and who is the Henry? Feel free to use your ghostly powers to comprehend what this means.

Dear anon,

You already know the answer.

Love, Mod B

Iris,

Do you ever feel judged for your parentage?

Dear anon,

Your question tugs at my heartstrings. If you had asked me this a year ago, two years ago, I would have said yes, most certainly. I felt judged for not knowing who my parents are, despite the fact that many people around me are the same way. There are a large number of orphans on the street, children abandoned on church doorsteps, and other such things. I am but one of many.

But now, in this year, I have no such qualms. I know who my Papa is, and it's Holmesies. Whoever my other parents may be, they do not matter nearly as much as the father who took me in, who raised me, who loves me so. I love him too. Perhaps one day I may learn who birthed me, but for the time being, I have the greatest Papa in the world!

Love, Iris

Dear Enoch,

What is your stance on Mormonism.

-Joseph Smith

Dear Joseph Smith:

Respectfully, get buried.

Dearest Enoch,

Hey u still Mormon?

-The heavenly spirit

To this so called 'heavenly spirit',

The answer is no. I have not followed any doctrine for quite some time, and my upbringing has led me to reject Mormonism in its entirety.

As for you, if you truly wanted to pretend to be some sort of spiritual figure, especially one in the Mormon religion, you would learn your scripture. Are you the Heavenly Father, or are you the Holy Ghost? I realize they are the trinity, one in three, but they are also three distinct beings.

Scornfully, Enoch Drebber

Dearest Rosie,

If you were miraculously gifted a supernatural power, what ability would you want?

Dearest anon,

I am not quite sure what supernatural power I would wish to have! The list is practically endless, and I have spent many hours sitting and imagining what I could do with a bit of magic in my life.

Due to my name, I have always felt quite a fondness for plant life. I think it would be quite the delight to be able to control the life and death of the plants around me. What ability would you want?

With fondness, Rosie

Sherlock and Iris,

What is your favorite disguise that holmes has created?

Dear anon!

My favorite disguise my Papa has is that of an old and weary fisherman. He does a silly voice, he uses his old pipe, puts on shabby clothes, he even has a fake moustache! It's utterly delightful. He fits in perfectly in that role, you may have even bumped into him once in that outfit without you knowing. He truly disappears into that fisherman.

His favorite disguise is that of Irene, another character he can vanish into. He often asks for my help preparing Irene, doing her hair, rouging her cheeks, and so on. You can see the love he has for her. It is incredible to see.

Thank you for asking!! Love, Iris

Dear Fathers and everyone,

Today was the day where Henry was going to have his trial.

And to cut it short so my tears no longer would drown the paper with my sorrows.

Henry Kilnt Van Zikes also known as the Storyteller of The Bailey was sentenced to death that day.

I knew he wasn’t guilty but knew that I couldn’t prove it otherwise and his attorney didn't even care for my brother’s life. he just wanted to be over with it

So yeah that's what happened.

But the only good news that I have right now is that I'm Pregnant with my fiance Lord Blackquill’s child.

We are planning to get married soon.

That's all I have to say for now

With love

Heather Kelly Van zikes

To Heather,

I cannot express how sorry I am that this happened. I wish I could have been there to help you. I wish someone could have been there in my stead. Most importantly, I wish that your brother was still alive.

I am sorry that I cannot be there now to comfort you. I hope only that you can surround yourself with friends and loved ones, and keep yourself safe from the cruelty that the world can sometimes bring.

Mournfully yours, Naruhodou Ryuunosuke.

Question to Barok

I know Klint is a touchy subject for you but do you have any good memories you shared together? And..Does the acts of what he did still haunt you? What Stronghart did and how he manipulated you and Klint? -Ares S.

To Ares:

Klimt is a rather touchy subject of mine, yes. That being said, his relationship with me used to be quite good. He was my closest and only friend for quite some time. I smile when I look back on our early years, the summers in the sun, nights warming by the fire, catching bugs in our hands and going on hunting trips with my father. Our father.

I still have a difficult time believing that my brother could have killed someone. I know he did, I have come to accept that difficult truth, but I cannot follow any line of logic he may have used. Perhaps it was entirely illogical. What remains is that he did kill a man, and Stronghart used that fact to his advantage to ruin our lives, the lives of the families of men my brother was forced to kill, perhaps the entirety of law in London itself.

It will take me quite some time coming to terms with everything. It has been months since I was confronted with the news, and yet I have hardly been able to sort through the mass amount of emotions it still stirs from within me.

Thoughtfully yours, Barok van Zieks

Can ghosts of dead characters interact with the living characters? 👻

Hello!

I think that ghost characters can interact with the living characters. I cannot say that the stuff within those conversations will remain canon, if that makes sense? For example, if Klimt tells Barok some information he didn't know before, he probably wouldn't be able to recall it, but I think if they've talked before he would be able to remember it again.

Maybe he'd remember it like a dream, or something? It's tough, because this is technically happening through letters, but I would like to see some interactions like that happen. The one thing is, if someone sends an ask from a character but it feels too out of character, I may not answer it.

I hope that makes sense! Signed, Mod of the Baskervilles

not an ask but... Can I take your barber juror head canon name (Aiden Richmond) and run away with it? 👉👈 I am having so many silly hcs where he's Redacted's personal barber and one of the few friends they had before they went to jail 👀

Hello hello!

I see no reason why not! I'm very happy to share the Aiden Richmond name with whoever wants to use it. I would love to hear about your headcanons, and this silly situation with Redacted.

Signed, Mod of the Baskervilles

lord van zieks, in another universe where the. issues. didnt happen, could you picture yourself being lifelong friends with asougi genshin-san? and dont give me an excuse like "its useless to entertain such possibilities", i just want your answer to the hypothetical

To Ribbonroad,

I have spent quite a bit of time wondering the same thing myself. Considering his child Kazuma, he most likely would have returned to Japan within a few years. After that, it is simply a matter of whether or not we would be able to remain in contact. The two of us were rather close, and I would have liked to continue talking to him, though I did notice him begin to give our family distance after Klimt married.

I fear Asougi--or, that is to say, Genshin--would have drifted away from me once he left. I would still have patiently awaited every letter from him, but I fear he made a far bigger impact on me than I did on him. It would have been quite upsetting to see him go.

Signed, Lord Barok van Zieks.

Can I hold chuunosuke please?

Dearest Anon:

You are absolutely free to hold Chuunosuke! He seems to have a penchant for chaos, despite me not making him that way, so do watch any snacks you may have on your person!

As Papa sometimes says, he makes for a crumby companion.

Please treat him with care!! Love, Iris

two questions for asougi kazuma-san: 1) would you still love naruhodou ryuunosuke if he were a worm and 2) would you still hate lord van zieks if he were a worm

To Ribbonroad-san,

It is good to hear from you again, friend. I have heard that you have asked such questions from several of my acquaintances, and thus have been trying to find my way into a coherent answer. I'm afraid I don't know if I will be able to provide an absolute reason why for these answers, but yes I would still love Naruhodou if he were a worm, and no I would not still hate Lord van Zieks if he were a worm.

I would love to elaborate, but I fear I simply cannot. I know deep in my heart of hearts that these answers are true. There is nothing more to it.

Respectfully yours, Asougi Kazuma.

To anyone,

Hey look at that dog!

Erm...

I know I've only been reading for so long, but I'm pretty sure that's a goat. I do hope that helps.

William Shamspeare,

If you were a type of equine what kind would you be? Unicorn? Pegasus? Regular horse but with a flamboyant color scheme perhaps?

Best wishes

Dearest anon,

I haven't the faintest idea how you learned of my proclivity for horses. Majestic creatures, are they not? Whether tis nobler to be the beast that trots and whinnies in outreaching forests, or to grow wings through a seabound deity and by opposing use them.

I know that I am not a fan of the work horse. Though they have their place, I would not want to be used in such a way. I have always had a connection with the racehorse, the ones with an attitude, a prance in their step and a preference for various foods. As for colour schemes, I don't know how flambouyant a horse could be. Though, their racing uniforms can be quite fancy.

Signed,

William Shamspeare

Dear Sherlock and Mikotoba,

You two make an iconic duo. Between the two of you, who would you say is the Sinjin and who is the Burf? This is for science… I eagerly look forward to your response.

Dear anon,

I have absolutely no idea to what you refer! That being said, I can tell you for scientific fact! That I am a Sinjin, and my dear Yuujin is a Burf. Perhaps if I get further information I would consider changing my mind, but I know deep in my gut that my initial reaction is correct.

Signed, World's Greatest Guesser, Sherlock Holmes
